Screw menus. A lot of things you can have analog controls for digital input.
The classic example is a car radio. On my 2005 Camry (and my wife's 2004 Pilot), the tuning and volume control is digital, but the actual buttons are good old-fashioned analog knobs, that simply control the digital input.
I'd argue that C++ Template Metaprogramming as a fully Turing-complete functional programming language was probably an unintended result of the definition of templates.
Because Bessman's Flailing Hammer removes 10 points from your INT when you pick it up, but returns to the *original* value when you drop it, you can use it in combination with the Ring of Cleverness to jack up your INT.
Pick up the ring, pick up the Hammer, drop the Ring, drop the Hammer. Repeat as needed (but don't go over 100). This also works nicely with the Potion of Heroism.
Back around '79 or so, a buddy of mine had a VW Bug with a different bug in it. It had some kind of short, so that if you touched the steering column with another key on the same ring as the one in the ignition, it sounded the horn.
He told us every single paper he received had gotten negative hits from Turnitin.com because Milton had just been discussed to death.
Don't write this down, but I find Milton probably as boring as you find Milton. Mrs. Milton found him boring too. He's a little bit long-winded, he doesn't translate very well into our generation, and his jokes are terrible.

I'd hold the Czech Republic up as the example rather than Russia. Possibly Poland as well.
No, they didn't. The proof is the fact that Diebold voting machines aren't even on the list. Had they used Diebold machines, it would have been #1.
Where do you still get analog service?
But wait! The name of the space ship is the USS Ditka!
2010 does not belong on that list. The *BOOK* was good, but the movie stank.
BZZZZT!!!! And thank you for playing. I had a 4 port router when I had exactly one computer in my house.
I didn't like the EnterNet 300 software that I needed for my DSL PPPoE connection. I bought a 4-port for future expansion.
Well, it is hard to top OMG!PONIES!!!!
No, it's here.
Case in point, original iPod Shuffle(tm). Don't know about the current Shuffle.
Yep, the Chevy Astro van would say, "Ruh-roh, Reorge! Roor is Ropen!"
Ok, so it's a cheap laugh and an old joke. Mod me down. I don't care.

The best of both worlds.
Try reading Slashdot with a 199x era web browser. I doubt it will work very well.
Works fine in Lynx.

If you're using Internet Destr-- Er, I mean Internet Explorer,
You mean Insecure Exploder?
You make *TWO* copies of the disk -- in the presence of both the RIAA lawyer and your lawyer. The RIAA gets one copy, your lawyer gets the other.
This, of course, is part of the fees reimbursed upon dismissal of the case.
When you are using unsupported drivers who's to say the driver didn't screw up the hardware.
Exactly how is an unsupported driver supposed to cause physically sticky keys?
I was waiting for this one... though I thought it might be about Scotsmen....
I believe that one's from E.B. White's "The Once and Future King" when the Wart goes with the ants.
Probably not, because that increases the problem of urine removal!
