But I was exactly talking about the age of Wedge Antilles, which differs on all of those battles and he ends up being 28 when he should be more like 40.
Never mind Wedge Antilles, the leader of Rogue Squadron, appears as 20-odd in Episode III, then in the original trilogy (A New Hope) appears to be 30-odd, then , then he's 28 years after RoTJ in the Rogue Squadron books. Talk about inconsistency...
The problem is that a *proper* color laser printer will not be the $600-$1000 model, it will be a much more expensive one, nearly the size of a photocopier. I've worked with a few Epson C8000s and AccuLaser 8500 (both "old" models by today's standards) and the printouts are absolutely fabulous with near-perfect color, and with an oil coating to both make them shiny (weee!) and stop toner from falling. Absolutely great printers. Only drawback: kinda slow. But they're worth it.
Maybe now it's a good time to point you to the marvellous SSC Service Utility that lets you control all the aspects in those cartridge chips (yes, including the refill counters and all the other whistles), plus a few more on the printers themselves?
I think it'd be relatively easy to do if they combined it with some validation method like "characters in an image" thing (I don't know what they're called).
That way, someone that actually wanted to report something could easily do so, and it'd be damn hard to be abused by botnets and similar stuff.
Because it's what will keep sites being IE-only. 90% market share for IE, therefore websites have to be designed with IE in mind, hence we can't follow the standards. That in turn keeps people using IE, which leads to a 90% market share. Therefore websites [... repeat ad infinitum].
Shameless monopoly exploiting at its best, my friend.
I think when doing something, most "geeks" (term used loosely) either charge whatever their time is worth (lots, usually) or simply don't charge at all, meaning they do it for the fun of it.
.. or when you had an IBM PS/1 or PS/2 machine which had a particular floppy/bios that would let you straight out format a 720K floppy at 1.44MB without any need to punch a hole in the disk.
Oh, and it made sense, by the way, as long as you didn't carry anything vital in those "upgraded" disks. Buying a pack of HD diskettes still cost a bit at the time so most people (like me) reused the 720K ones at 1.44 capacity until they flipped out. And according to my experience, a pack of DD disks from a good brand was just every bit as good as an average pack of HD disks.
Maybe, just maybe, because it isn't supported out-of-the-box, and since most average users can't even double-click without help, they won't take the time/effort to install an external codec, much less one they never heard about (maybe you could get away with RealPlayer or something like that, but anything less known and it's pushing it).
Oh come on... it's not really a 'movie', and it's a lot closer to 'documentary', even it it misses the definition by a few meters. What's the big deal with that?
Shows up in pretty much every review they make. Corsair gives them the RAM, and it works fine. What's the big deal with plugging the brand in the review? It's not like it's some 2 minute TV-style ad jumping out at your face...

I though it was MIT that had found this out, not Google!
AOL Keyword: commandline.
Ring a bell, anyone?

... playing with fire will get you burned, suprisingly!
My thoughts exactly. Can't really see how a $250 million (to take the lower boundary) can't pay support costs for [insert software choice here].

My only question is...um, why the fuck not?

Maybe you would be crying your eyes over if you had this really cool non-generalistic invention that you didn't get credit ($$$) for.
I'm against software patents, but blocking patents altogether seems like a pretty bad idea to me.
Only thing is... 525 in roman numerals is DXXV.

Somehow I see this as a threat to Firefox's market share, not IE's....
Speaking of PHP compilers, there's a good and very affordable solution from IonCube as well.
(no, I have no affiliation to them)

You do realize that the average Joe, as soon as he saw that, would be "so what the hell do I need to download anyway?"
Now all they need to do is a similar engine for pr0n. That way I can draw the perfect tits to look for :D
Analogy != comparison, my friend :)

Too bad it only ever works for modems that look for their configuration file on the PC side as well as on the cable provider's side.
DOH! Right you are, indeed :)
