In no way was I arguing that the Chinese are free. They are only free to choose from sanctioned choices, and not to make their own. Religion is a prominent example. Chinese are only allowed to follow five sanctioned religions: Buddhism, Daoism, Islam, Protestant Christianity and Catholic Christianity.
The point I wished to make was freedom apparently has little to do with the success of an ecomomy.
Before you mod me down as a Troll, think about this:
Why do undeveloped nations think they need big ill thought throught project like this. Free the people and let them do the thinking and drive the economy.
Right now, China's economy is experiencing an incredible boom. They are not "free" so being free is not a requirement for a successful economy. Right now, the G8 leaders are discussing how to fix the worlds three "economic engines" -- the U.S., Japan, and Europe -- all of which are stagnating. These people are all free. Therefore, freedom does not imply a successful economy.
It's not just "undeveloped" nations that do mega projects like this. All nations do them, and for good reason. The U.S. dammed the Colarado with a giant dam. Funny, they claimed to haved needed it for electricity. I guess China is too "undeveloped" to need electricity.
There is little point in a lot of locations, because snow often covers the roof in winter -- and believe it or not, snow is a good insulator, and will do much more for keeping the house warm, when you only get 8 or 9 hours of weak sunlight in the winter.
I've been really happy with them. Tech support is by email, but I usually get a response within 5 minutes to half an hour at any time of the day. The support forums are also very good. They do both shared and dedicated hosting.
Don't forget that manual voting isn't all cherries either. In the States, long lineups are common; furthermore, in Florida, they empregnate their chads. I guess the election officials don't agree with beta testing.
By contract, in Canada, the counting, and the booth staffing are done by volunteers (though monitored by officials). You're given a piece of paper (black with the checkboxes and names in white) and a pencil. It's the exact same way no matter where you vote in the country. It's been this way since Confederation, and guess what, it just works.
In the last American election, it took over a month to determine who was President, which is absolutely rediculous! Last time we voted, we knew who was leading the country by the end of the day. And it's not because Canada is smaller we just have an efficient system for ten times the population, get ten times as many people counting.. duh.
At one point, in my Federal riding, a candidate legally changed his name to "The Above ZZNone of", which appeared last on the ballot as "ZZNONE OF, The Above".
He didn't win the election, but he didn't place last either
Cable:
a) Only three ports are firewalled, those being for common windows trojans.
b) Never a charge for excessive bandwith (I download/upload several gigs a week).
c) Never gets bogged down.
d) Has a 60KB/s upstream cap which I never notice, and an insane 1 MB/s (byte!) download cap.
e) Is part of the internet at large. I'm not foolish enought to stick an un-firewalled machine on a live IP.
DSL:
a) Has many server ports firewalled, including 80 and 25.
b) Gets slow during the day (not bad after 9 pm though).
c) Charges by the extra MB.
d) Has a 64KB/s upstream cap, with download rates between 150 and 200 KB/s.
e) Is also part of the Internet at large.
I should also mention (although I think I see posts saying this later on) that, indeed, the bike is a one loop conductor, and that the powerlines (via the right hand rule) have a varying magnetic field (because the current is varying), but the induced emf is very small. This is because the current in the wires is small, and there aren't very many of them, and you are 50+ ft away, and your bike is only one loop. I'd call the induced emf negligable personally.
Actually, it's not negligable. I used to ride my bike for a kilometer or two quite often under some 115 kV lines near where I lived. If i didn't ground out my bike, or touch it every 10 seconds, I'd get quite a shock.. actually, just leaving some exposed skin about a centimeter from the handbars would get a zap every 30 seconds or so. It was fun:D
Slashdot Mirror
Any reasonable school would allow a deferement for such exceptional circumstances.

No way! It's one of the funniest sigs on slash!
Actually, the CPU/Bus speed wasn't 1 Mhz -- it was 1.023 Mhz. It's right there in the technical manual. :)
As a matter of fact, I DO run KDE 3.1 and OpenOffice.org on a 100 MHz Pentium. Ahhh... the magic of X-terminals.
There is a great collection of information on caffeine at the Erowid Caffeine Vault.
Open directory browsing on http://www.sco.de/images/. It's the same filesystem.
Actually, it's just been moved:

They have directory browsing enabled on www.sco.de. Check it out: http://www.sco.de/images. It's the same file system as sco.com.
Seems to be only the index page affected. Take a look at http://www.sco.de/images/ =)

Very true!

True enough.

I'm just not that experienced
Ever consider that a lot of highend printers support printing on transparencies?

So please stop making broad gernalisations.
You owe it to humanity to become a teacher yourself!
Read Rich Dad, Poor Dad for the answer to your question. Highly recommended.
Can you please post online where one might be able to find this? TIA!
That was the freaking funniest thing i read all damned day! lol
Me too, my friend, me too. Bleh. But thankfully, people tend to be nice to me.
And will the box set be titled The Matrix Multiplied?
