On the other hand, Andy Pruitt, the founder of the Boulder Center for Sports Medicine and an avid lifelong cyclist, said the dangers were overstated, noting he's only broken his collarbone twice and hip once in four decades of long-distance cycling.
Oh, that sounds just fine! I was going to play football with killer robots, but cycling sounds only slightly more dangerous!
That reminds me of how back in 1991, I went away to college and my mom wanted to type up a letter to me-- but she forgot how to start the word processor. So she typed her short message in at the DOS prompt, then hit Print Screen. You can imagine how confusing that letter was-- "Bad command or filename" interspersed with a few sentences. She did eventually figure it out-- and then bought a Mac.
Brother lasers are incredibly cheap, yet have both ethernet AND wi-fi. The wi-fi is more handy than you think; its quite nice to be able to put the printer anywhere there is power.
No, but some men prefer to have hair while others don't. Some of us look great bald, like Patrick Stewart and Michael Jordan. Others... not so much. If you plan on criticizing others for modifying their appearance, you're basically going to be going against over 90% of the population.
I was thinking the tops of my feet, myself. It will kick my hobbit cosplay up a notch. Unfortunately, it will do little for the fact that I am two meters tall.
You can report a post. If you have a post on your wall and click the X to get rid of it, it gives you this option. Naturally, some people I know are victimized by moronic friends or friends-of-friends who, instead of just closing the post or even blocking that person, decide to report the post and this results in a summary, temporary ban on posting.
To be fair, pornography is different from actual videos of terrorists beheading someone. Porn is fiction, murder is not. That, of course, doesn't excuse Facebook from banning any videos or pics of people nude in everyday, nonsexual situations.
Um... you can hook up a Blu-Ray player to a CRT, as well. They still have composite and component outputs. S-Video might be trickier, but I bet most DVD players now are loss-leaders and don't have them either. I also don't see BD as being for elitist snobs when many players are available for under $100. The problem with BD is that people aren't going to Blockbuster and renting physical discs anymore-- they're streaming. DVD is still popular because if you're broke, you might not be able to afford a good internet connection and a subscription to a streaming service. So it's not DVD vs. BD, but the internet against both.
As for the Zip and Syquest thing, I had an EZ-125 and it was clearly superior in performance and durability under normal use. But the discs were physically vulnerable to drops. You could probably get away with dropping a Zip, but the 135/270 discs were essentially a hard disc platter inside a plastic box.
Seriously. It's understandable that some people think the USA's current woes are GWB's fault, being that his administration was recent. But Brits are blaming Thatcher for not rolling out FTTP in the 1980s before most people even had computers in their homes? It's like jumping on James K. Polk for not getting that transcontinental railroad done so that the settlers could migrate to Oregon in comfortable Pullman cars instead of smelling the butts of oxen and dying of dysentery.

We already got him back... he's a black Democrat.

Rule 3a: Don't buy Lexmark cartridges for a Canon printer.
Both my Sony players, purchased over the last year, have composite outputs.
Yet the UK has cameras all over in its major cities. I guess you've failed. Perhaps you should leave the UK for greener pastures?
On the bad side, you'll constantly be pranked over spicy beef jerky.

You'll look like Richard Simmons.

Fox left in 2012! Nieto is in now.
How many people in the world know the American President by name? Just wondering what the results of your survey were.
This is brilliant.
And Australia is still full of criminals. Shut up, you blithering idiot.

And clearly, stubborn douchebaggery comes from daem0m1x.
Jingo... you keep using that word. I do not believe it means what you think it means.

Shoot his disembodied head until he dies? Wait, that was John Romero.

G.Fast? Hmph! I've had V.FAST since the 1990s and these savages have only made it up the alphabet to G so far!

It's in case Manhattan's original owners try to take it back.
