"LiMux" is presently the largest Linux project in the public sector. With it, the state capital Munich to 2013 about 80 percent of its 15 000 PC workstations on the free operating system Linux. All PC workstations are already equipped since 2009 with an open communication office (OpenOffice.org, Thunderbird, Firefox) and almost 6,000 computers have been converted to the Munich-based Linux operating system. The state capital also has the single document template system, developed WollMux 'which is as free software under the European Union Public License (EUPL) published and other users for free as an open standard available (www.wollmux.org).
I would still call that a success, even if they were initially naïve in some respects.
Maybe they met a guy in a park who showed them some golden pills with some strange scripts on them. They scribbled down what they could remember as the golden pills would be taken away from them by the dude. The scripts may have been written in reformed Pearl, and later followers and coders have not been able to relate it to any known version of the standard Pearl script, or any other script language ever since. Not even Simon Singh or his friends would be able to decipher what they had written. Later on they may have followers in the millions, and have a legal status. The dude ruled them all!
Don't trust these guys. It all appears to be a scam. I sent the Nigerian Finance Minister's younger sister two thousand dollars, twice, so she could get her late husband's will. But, I never heard of her since. Too bad, as she had shown me some interesting pictures of her in the tub.
The television is one of those products which has had a price of about £100 to £1000 for more than 50 years. It is cool to see that it applies to the Marconi type 702 too!
"A Chinese rocket carrying a probe destined for the Moon has blasted into space."
"China launched its first manned flight into low-Earth orbit in 2003; and two more followed, with the most recent one in 2008."
With their population, lack of religion, their scientific output surge was inevitable and still is largely untapped. More to come, much more to come. And in Chinese.

So, what you are saying in effect is that you can not make jokes about (note the difference between jokes about and laughing at):
the Japanese nuclear disaster? the Japanese tsunami disaster? the Japanese quake disaster? the 2004 quake disaster? the 2004 tsunami disaster? the New York 2001 Sep 11 disaster? the New York jews disaster? the Holocaust jews disaster? the Holy Chair disaster? the Holy Cow disaster? dairy cows? farmers? lumberjacks? gays?
Why not nuke the Monty Python too?
Sorry, wasting core time on dead-on Japanese nuclear seppuku jokes probably will be around for some time. Hmmm, wonder what the half-life of those jokes will be?
It always surprises me how thin the ring is. BTW, Saturn, the Lord of the Ring? Saturday, I wonder if that had a special meaning to Tolkien. So, how is Peter's Hobbit going on? These movie delays always surprise me.
Probably correct. The 19th century belonged to Europe, 20th to North America, and 21st to Asia. History keep changing, but considering that the population of Asia is so large and that China does not really rely on superstitions a Chinese hegemony may last longer than any based on European/Middle East traditions.
I couldn't tell the difference between Watson and my uncle having a cold, whose conversations btw tend to be restricted to snappy answers from the sofa watching Jeopardy. The similarity is good enough for me.:)

Judges and/or Justices?

Why Stanley Kubrick? I don't see the connection here and I didn't read the article.

I have the same issue. Try

each time you want to use jackd based apps. But, you won't be able to listen to Youtube until you shut down jackd again.
A butt ugly workaround? Yes.

Bigger boobs ARE better.
Yet another Chinese proverb validated
Picture of X-40A in an article on an X-37B launch?! :)

I doubt if that was the intention...
Do you think those high-res photos of the reactor site will give inspiration for some bad-ass fps even more realistic than S.T.A.L.K.E.R.?
I don't, but they could.
Cool to see how the gravitation patter largely ignores the contours of the continent.
But, is there a gravitational hole in the Indian Ocean? Could it have been an asteroid? Perhaps leading to the "fast split" of Africa and India?
Just speculating.

Didn't they flirt a bit too much w MS?!
How about the Bing/Yahoo hegemony?
"Some on-screen targets were as small as the effective area of a Microsoft Word menu icon."
They should have used KDE. It is vectorized and can be scaled efficiently. :|
".xxx is largely a tool of people who just want another TLD to spin money from"
I am not sure all in the money crowd are eager to go there. Can you imagine www.disney.xxx?

World Says CryEngine 2 Is Now Better Than idTech 5.
It looks far better
It has physics to speak of
It is more customizable
It does NOT have megatextures!
It looks far, far better
Shit, and I used to like idTech 1,2,3,4, but the Crysis series just blew them out of sight

The Turing Prize should have gone to Watson, as it (he?) passed the Turing test, or at least won Jeopardy.
Forget my knee-jerk skepticism. http://modernistcuisine.com/ is the best!!! Nathan rulez!
