Not only that, but as the name suggests the cards you plugged into VLB slots had to run at the same clock rate as the CPU. You could only use two VLB cards at 33 Mhz (e.g., a 486DX2/66) or just ONE at 40 Mhz, like on my AMD DX2/80. Most cards were only designed for 33 MHz operation, so results could be sketchy even with that single card. Naturally, I didn't know this and initially configured my system with both IDE and VGA on VLB cards, so I occasionally had funny problems.
We already know what went wrong-- corners were cut on the safety devices. This will cost thousands of jobs and send exploratory drilling overseas. The progressives will get the "green economy".
George Soros owns part of Petrobras, the Brazilian state-owned oil company. Within 48 hours of Obama's moratorium, Petrobras was contacting Laborde Marine to lease its exploratory rigs. No conflict of interest here, no sir...
On a side note, can anyone tell me what a six-month moratorium would achieve? What's the next step? Is there a crack team of engineers looking into a way of keeping this from happening again? I don't see any, since this was a problem in the process. The technology is sound, but people cut corners. News flash: there are crooked and lazy people in the world. We don't shut down entire airlines when one of their planes crashes, and we can't stop exploratory drilling entirely because of one accident. Tens of thousands will lose their jobs, making Biden's glowing job creation numbers (which are just census jobs) look pathetic.
Who is "we"? Western European governments launched the crusades. The Brits colonized the Middle East. The one thing that doesn't fit in your list is Israel, which declared its independence after decades of neglect, broken promises, and mismanagement by the British Empire. The de facto-- and de jure according to the UN and US President Harry Truman-- government of Israel brought stability and self-determination to a tiny part of a troubled region. The fact that the Arab residents of that region would rather steal, kill and destroy than be part of that dream is not the fault of the West or of Israel.
The Sierra Club demanded that someone else move their generators, instead the turtles, which are actually MOBILE. It's the same desert-- they'll carry on just fine. It's just another example of the irresponsibility of the eco-fascists: they want someone else to carry the burden of their demands.
Listen, the President says it's embarrassing that Americans can only say "merci beaucoup", so you should be embarrassed too. Never mind that it's impractical to learn a language you will rarely have an opportunity to use! It's only a shame that you didn't travel the world like Obama did-- yet somehow avoid learning anything other than English-- so that you could feel as embarrassed as he does!
It's a system that works great, as long as you're not the one thrown into prison without being allowed to mount a defense (if you're even allowed a trial).
Probably for the same reason the President was fundraising for Barbara Boxer's campaign, hosting an Earth Day celebration (irony!), going to Wall Street to push the Wall Street bill, golfing in Asheville, hanging out in Iowa and Missouri for no apparent reason, and attending another DNC fundraiser before finally visiting Louisiana.
I'm pleased to hear that you were able to charge, convict, and sentence the CEO of BP with criminal negligence already with next to no evidence, Mr. Columbo. It's a good thing that this only happened in the frightening socialist nation of your mind, instead of the real world where (for now) when bad things happen we try to fix them first, then take time to find out what happened and make sure it doesn't happen again.
It's better to own the orange properties than the dark blue. The orange are right after the jail, and there is a chance card that sends you to Illinois ave. Not only that, but Park Place is right after the "Go to jail" space, so it's missed a lot.
US highways are engineered to cut around the path of least resistance and for the least amount of money. This leads to wild changes in elevation and dangerous increasing-radius corners, to go along with our giant, crappy cars with their non-handling cloud suspensions and our uneducated drivers.
Can you try driving an American car made after 1980? Seriously, this is ridiculous B.S. Read a Car and Driver some time. The Japanese sedans have the poofy rides now.
Well, besides the fact that those are UK figures, in the USA we already have lots of school zones that direct you to slow to an absurd FIFTEEN MPH when flashing-- which is often at the wrong times, such as when school isn't even in session. I'm not really quite sure who you're responding to on this, but most of our residential streets are already at 25-35 MPH. Unfortunately, politics have set limits as low as 25 on wide highways-- some with medians, signalled crosswalks, multiple lanes, etc. This is revenue generation.
Hey, I can get numbers to do tricks too... maybe pedestrians have a much lower fatality rate when hit at 20, but when I'm going only 20 I take longer to traverse the area and thereby increase the probability of having an accident. Sounds like something for the Freakanomics guy to look into!
Clearly, before starting any insulation project you have to upgrade any knob-and-tube wiring. Even if it's in good condition, it requires air flow to stay cool.
Or, we can do BOTH instead of setting up straw men and acting like every idea is useless if it doesn't fit into your own preconceived notions. For example, I haven't called you an idiot for not pairing a radiant barrier (which works better in hot climate zones anyway) with your super-insulated system.
You need to chill out. Maybe you should take some lithium.

You have funny looking eggs, wherever you are.
You know what would be a good thing for governments to do with their citizens' money? Let them keep it.

"Long-life" incandescent bulbs are less efficient.
Please cite which automakers these are so I can avoid them. The owner's manual for my GM-made car documents how to turn off the light.
But won't anyone think of the TURTLES?

That's because they execute a lot more people.

Apparently, three of the 101 uses are NOT "coming when you call", "chasing squirrels at all", or "being much fun".
I hear dot dot dot is morse code for "you're an idiot."

What the heck is religious about ICP? And what do you think the voter turnout of Juggalos is?
Some are Slashdot posters.

They hand out condoms to seventh graders there.
