after some age (13?)
You get issued your Personalausweis (Personal Identity card) at the age of 16.
I remember a friend being checked when he didn't have his on him one time. In the middle of the night, in the middle of the forest. what else are a couple of young guys gonna do besides drugs, right?
anyway they asked him what his name was and where he lived, ran a check on him, and everything was alright.
As the parent said, the police in general are much more relaxed about stuff like that here, than what I was used to in the states.
in his auction he states he will not transfer the thing by means which don't comply whith the Ebay guidelines (in this case over the internet). It's added as an update but that doesn't make it less valid.
I definately agree with you. But someone that knows what he's talking about with the ground crew is better than no one, and if he manages to land the thing and totally wrecks it but saves 1/2 of the passengers - that's a good thing.
(But then again on one of the tapes I used to listen to as a kid, an _elephant_ lands a plane and saves all the human passengers, though he breaks of a wing - so how hard can it be *g*)
and more importantly download those mp3s (which is really the whole point besides/.).
but fiber? what we need is satellite links. we save on showers in our moonbase and just get a satellite (considering that most of the people up there will be/.ers *g*).
unless you wanna move on in a couple of years:-)
here we're copying the US. The consumer culture and everything that connects to it that is. think TV, think filesharing, think music. First we copy the cultural assets (Realiy shows, American Idol, the music, and other blabla) and then the "appropriate" legislation. sucks living on this earth. anyone wanna move to the moon with me? If we get enough people to donate we could maybe... seriously, do you think that maybe one day there will be no place left to go ?
on first though: why the hell is this modded as interesting, isn't it obviously supposed to be funny?
But then, wouldn't that be a good idea to raise money? In High school there was _always_ someone that had made up a cause to raise some funds. And if/.sells t-shirts so can the Mozilla Foundation! I doubt It'll give'em $2M, but still...
I'd love some little Dinosaur doll, though. That'd be the perfect way to show my affection fo Mozilla:"I even take Mozy to bed with me", or the little more offensive (thus better suited for/.):"I even sleep with Mozilla". And they could make little Firebird cigarette lighters! And come up with something that somehow utilizies Thunderbird (yeah I know, creativity is not my thing...), and... *StruckByReality* anybody know if OpenBSD is making any money of their shirts?
I'm not sure, but wouldn't this copyright also apply to software, i.e. Windows? And since Iraq is a poor country, not many people might have the money to buy a copy. So either pirate or use something free, right ? I see an opportunity here. But first the Iraqis will need their basic needs to be taken care of, and then a good educational system. I hope thats a field in where the Britons have more to say than the Americans...*g*
and it's little more than a database search... Having gone through this (got a Jordanian Passport): "little more" is not what I'd call it. I'm not sure if it was called a "DS-157", but it took about 45 min telling the officer about everything that was on the Visa application form already, telling him what my plans in the US were, and having a picture and my fingerprints taken.(great so now they know everything about me, very relaxing) Then after 4 weeks I had to report back to the INS in Minniapolis,MN. That was the nearest office but still a five hour drive. And all that for asking me questions again and proving that I was staying where I had said I was and doing what I had said I was. I can somehow understand that actions, though I don't like them, but "little more than a database search" is not what that is. But I guess that's what you meant by "..." *g*
No, you can set the ADF in an aircraft to a Radiostation frequency and then just follow your little arrow.

Looks like. And I always thought "poor Americans, there goes their freedom". Gotta change my European attitude. So the only place where we are safe for now on is in some 3rd world countries where they just have bigger problems than "piracy", maybe even real pirates with eyecaps and everything. Who knows *g*. But why am I joking? It's just sad. We need a scheme in which musicians/actors/writers can make money without selling CDs/DVDs,.../books. Or a change in mind in which "star"/manager != millionaire
But I suppose that won't be anywhere in my lifespan.

I guess its because of that (scroll down). Though the reasons stated are funny, considering the original price...
Mitsubishi is selling their 'Pajeiro' as 'Montero' in (I think ) Portugal. Because 'padjeiro' means jack-off...
I was getting worried that nobody was gonna mention that one :-). It might even be faster than 5 sec for the more experienced... ahh fun
thank you! You just saved my day. I was getting rather depressed reading this thread and other world news.
lol
I would bet you anything that you'd find similar BS in the US, Australia and Canada.
Seagate Model St3I 44A (at least 10 years old. dunno how big, it made funny sounds when I connected it) :
Product warranty will be void if label or top cover is removed or if the drive experiences shocks in excess of 75 G's.
should be pretty safe, or else your driving style needs serious improvement *g*
OTOH maybe I just don't know about car physics
I definately agree with you.

/. is too France centered!!!
what do you mean "NO GIRLS" ??? we will be able to access those jpegs through the sat link as we do now. I don't see the difference *puzzled*
