There was a huge uproar about it but it seemed silly to me for people to bitch about the temporary cap whilst that company was upgrading their infrastructure.
Always make a lot of noise when a company does such a thing. Else they might think they can get away with more permenant caps.
Companies have to be trained like dogs. If they do something good, you give them a cookie. if not, rub their noses through it.
I mean, seriously. If there's all kinds of natural/unnatural disasters happening, let the Feds disconnect access until the crisis is stabilized.
Not only would those damn firetrucks make so much noise I can't listen to my MP3's, now they would actually cut my access to/. too. Then I could just as well leave the damn burning building.
For the same reason they have better broadband. Geographically denser population than the US.
We could solve that. We'll build one Huge skyscraper (like those archologies in Sim City) in the US and move everybody in it.
Then we'll have an anchoring tower for the space elevator as well.
Be more practical: cut her phone line. And to be more certain of effectiveness: disconnect her electricity, water, gas and sewer and shoot all pigeons. oh, and remove all flameable materials in the area too.
Please. Every time the US was "saving" some country from an evil dictator, they ended up: a) replacing him with a US-friendly evil dictator(guess who trained Osama and get the Taliban in place?)
b) getting their asses kicked and make movies about some random American soldier easily winning a battle in that war, but never showing the fact they lost that war horribly.
And before you start bitching about WW2: The US got involved because Mister Fuhrer sunk a few US ships too many.
We used to vote with paper and a pencil. Then we got those computers to vote with, because it was cheaper and more efficent. Now those PC need to print your vote on a piece of paper.
In short we succeeded in replacing a cheap pencil by an expensive computer with totaly no advantages.
Finally, the proof can be discovered that humans were engineered from the indiginous life on this planet by an alien superrace that will surely soon return to dominate us all!!!!
Ever saw The Truman Show? Ok, you don't have to admit it, but perhaps those aliens didn't create us to dominate, but just as entertainment.
I have been using linux at home and work 2 years and I had never had any virus issue or blue screen of death.
You haven't? Well, let me check... Ah I see, you never registered with the Virus Distribution Agency. Windows does this automaticaly but Linux users have to register manualy. (this will be fixed in the near future). Just leave your email adres here and we'll send you your first virus as soon as possible.
About the lack of screens of death(or Automatic Coffee Break Generator): That feature isn't part of Linux, but is available as an add-on.
A $1200 system with a 64 bit processor and only 512 MB RAM? What gives?
Didn't you know: "640kb is enough for everybody"?
They're giving you a 1000 times as much as you need and you're still complaining. Some people are never satisfied.
Nowhere in your Big Book is anything written about computers, so we can conclude you're crazy, because your trying to type messages on a non-existant object and even believe you're receiving answers. So be quite until the man in white come to take you away to a nice padded room.
So as long as you don't look directly into the beam, it basically is just a giant flashlight. Thanks.
with industrial lasers (class 3 and up) you shouldn't even look at the light scattered from the target, it's still powerful enough the cause serious eye damage. Don't underestimate these things.
And no, you can't dodge laser fire or deflect them with a light sabre.

You like Real Life too?
Well, I guess your nanopenis would qualify as vaporware. Only I don't think discussing its vaports would be appropriate.

I'm surprised. I didn't know twelve year olds could vote in the US.

If I had one, I would just have to abuse it. I mean, who could resist using one of these to interfere with some one elses bladder control?
A shader is something that shades things that need to be shaded, while leaving thing that don't need to be shaded alone.
