The only problem with that is that you have to deal with TigerDirect's cut-rate shipping service. I have bought exactly three things from TigerDirect in the last 15 years. EVERY.SINGLE.ONE. of the items I bought arrived damaged and looking like it had been used as a pinata at a party for Ultimate Fighters.
Consider yourself lucky. They shipped me an empty box once! Luckly, all it took was a call and they sent a non-empty box the next time. I was expecting it to be a hassle (how do I prove the box was empty?), but the guy I spoke to simply took me for my word. Maybe it happens more ofter than I think.
Forgive my ignorance here but don't we already have this?
Your confusion is that Kola was a lot deeper but was only about 1/3 of the way thru the crust, this is drilling thru a very thin area of the crust.
Traditional drilling methods don't work so they gave up on Kola.
Yeah. Ocean crust is a lot thinner than continental crust. And if I remember correctly, Kola is in a mountainous area where the continental crust is thicker.
Because The Core is a fun, silly movie meant to be enjoyed with your brain in the off position.
I particularly liked the part when they got stuck in a giant geode. The only way it could have been better would have been if there were dinosaurs in the geode.
Oh no! You've given away the plot of the upcoming sequel!
White House sources partly confirmed that U.S. government computers — reportedly including systems used by the military for nuclear commands
Wow, that sounds bad.
None of the White House’s secure, classified computer systems were affected
Wait, so there are only a couple ways that these could both be claimed:
1. Someone is lying
2. Our gov't is actually dumb enough to not classify & secure systems used by the military for nuclear commands
3. Someone is lying
I'm guessing it's either 1 or 3.
No. See it's easy. Only the insecure, classified computer systems were affected!
When I was in India we used to go to TGIF on Fridays to have a hamburger topped with bacon bits to offend as many religions as we could. Beef for the Hindu, Bacon for the Muslims, and meet on Friday for the Christians (or is that only Catholic?)
My iphone4 fell out of an ultralight onto a construction site where it was run over by a steamroller and it was fine, but a cotton-wool ball touched up against my samsung and the screen shattered.

By the way, the name, Diaspora, it also sucks. Oh, and I don't have an FB account either but it has a better name.
Yeah seriously. Daispora sounds like a disease.
Lela: Someone likes snouts!
Fry: Is it me?

Now when I go to Mapquest and type in "Hottah" they're going to prompt me "Earth or Mars?"
Try Apple Maps. It'll automatically go to Mars.
I've never had this problem. It's always asked me if I want to go to offline mode when there's no connection.
Does it even have to be a fluid? What about a flow of fine particles, or something like a pyroclastic flow?
True to a point, but these generally flow for a lesser distance and result in more angular particles.
Eventually, iOS users who don't want to wait for Apple-Google parity will be able to download native a native version of Google's maps
You mean an application that duplicates the functionality of a built-in app?
You really think Apple is going to allow this in the iOS store?
Plus, google says they are not working on one:
Google not working on IOS app
Simple: Xmas is only 3 months away.
Don't think it really matters to MS. If a family is going to buy a PC, what difference is it to MS whether it's Windows 7 or Windows 8.
You're missing the point. Why publish a book with no photos? What is the fucking point?
Most books I have contain words to be read. In this case they are probably refering the the color composition of the white rectangles.
Bacon also costs various amounts depending on what part of the world you are in. In Panama, it was double what we pay in Canada.
So good it was banned by two religions.

BitBacon or Bacon bits?
I wonder if they would have trouble with iTravel2000?
I remember reading one time:
The difference between a terrorist, a guerrilla, and a freedom fighter is simply how much we like them
Yeah, I'd like to say I did that intentionally. Unfortunately, it's just a preview fail!
China Unveils Yet Another Stealth Fighter
Seems they quite get the idea of stealth!
My iphone4 fell out of an ultralight onto a construction site where it was run over by a steamroller and it was fine, but a cotton-wool ball touched up against my samsung and the screen shattered.
Well, I'm glad the steamroller was fine!
With these new helium filled drives, the "whoosh" would be in a high-pitched, squeaky voice.
And... How will my MP3s sound on one of these drives?
I remember a while back, you could unlock Fords remotely with a Palm Pilot app.
I was going to say "email it to Anonymous - they'll back it up for you too", but your method will be just as effective!
Will they be installing a VTEC engine too?
No. Just Type-S stickers!
Seems they (the RIAA) would rather take nothing, and blame it on piracy, than take something!
