A long time ago, when I was still dual booting. I found I could keep my sanity while in Windows with cygwin. Open up a bash prompt and it felt just a little bit like home. There was no need for bat files for real commands as they were there. I had raw access to my peripherals. Every thing I would want was there, even the source:)
So, for the windows users out there who want to experience what a real cli should be like, google up cygwin and install it. Bash beats cmd hands down.
(brought to you by the good people a cygwin. "When you need to win, win with cygwin")
Correct me if I am wrong (spelling implied), but wasn't there an episode of Black Adder wher Bauldrik(sp?) described irony as "like goldy but made of iron?"
Problem with that is McDonanlds does not make their own bread. You would have to go after the suppliers. But you could try to patent the process for delivering two all beef patties, special sauce, lettuce, cheese, pickles, onions on a sessame seed bun (*) if I hadn't filed that patent.
No it isn't, ABS will not ever come into play unless the driver decides to stop the car. The decision to stop the car is still in the control of the driver. ABS does not say, "shit, stop the car". It is more of an assistance to something the driver actually wants.
It wasn't on the box, but the actual bandaid wrapper. Even so, to test to see if the actual bandaid is still sterile, you would have to remove the wrapper, thus "nullifying" the statement. Company X could argue that the bandaid was sterile until you opened it to test it, and exposed it to the greenish liquid
I can take 80 lines of code from the Linux Kernel and dump it into my Good Thing(TM) Kernel. The start jumping up and down saying "Linus stole my code". Show the two pieces and have the experts saying "the evidence looks damning".
What we need is the codes history. From both sides we need:
1. who created the code (ie checked in) 2. When was the code created.
The winner will simply be the codebase who had it first.
Take an existing event, which by itself in not patentable (ie an auction) and stick it on a have the participants interact through the internet, and all of a suddent, you have just "invented" the best thing since sliced bread (Patent Pending).
So:
1. Take existing "thing" everyone does 2. Stick it on the net, and patent it 3. Profit
This is exactly the reason companys will believe the "GPL is viral" statements. Piss off an employee who has access to the source, and next thing you know, your product has just been released under the GPL.
With all the comments here, saying "it's GPL'd. There is nothing they can do". What if the person who released the code did not have the authority?
This is very familiar to SCO, with one exception. When the company owning the software was aware of the distribution the source was pulled and replace d with an note explaining that the release was in error.
Just a quick note. His name was Indigo, as in the colo(u)r. It is just his accent that makes is sound like Inigo. This can be seen when Andre the giant is looking for Indigo, he clearly calls out his name as such.

Apparently, they will eat it (or try to) as PCBs contain some foodstuffs. Same goes for plastics. Anyone have details of what is included. I forgot to eat my daily dose of 486 mobos today and I am feeling a bit low.

And aren't parodies are a protected form of speech?
Because, as we all know here, Microsoft is evil. On that premis, the watch would therefore only communicate with K.A.R.R.
For those who don't remember, this was the first prototype, K.I.T.T's "older" brother.

Oh but you have. Lets break your one step down a bit:
1) Make funny reply about a comment that quotes from the article
2) karma
We can then take it further:
1) Make a (funny?) reply about a reply about a comment that quotes from the article
2) karma *
* or in my case -karma
Don't you mean both of us do?

Was on a band aid wrapper:
" contents sterile unless opened "
Beautiful. Impossible to test the product to see if the disclaimer is truthful.
Maybe on my next software product I will have an EULA that states " contains no bugs unless open "
