At least for me as a German reader, i had to read TFA to get an idea what "mpg" means in the first place, than had to use google and xcalc to compute the unit we use to measure how much cars spend. 35 mpg is about 6.7l/100km, which does sound pretty good to me.
But still do not know under which circumstances these 6.7l shall be attained. City traffic, highway, or total mix? I have trouble keeping my moderately motorized car on 7l/100km in city traffic, it can do much better on the autobahn (if i don't push it too hard).
Windows has always used a Heisenburg unmount strategy (i.e. you don't know whether the drive is unmounted until you try accessing it). Wouldn't that be Schrödinger? Heisenberg was the one Chief O'Brien needed the compensators for.
Assume for a moment that a benevolent business point blank asks their customer, "Do you mind if we root-kit your computer for additional security?" Been there, done that. No T-shirt, but the shame of having a piece of shit on my company computer, that just would not die.
I had to check a request for a Brazilian customer and after two sides in Portuguese my machine rebooted (no warning by the OS) and i had "G-Buster Browser Defense" defending my computer. For a description, see http://insanebits.blogspot.com/2007/04/g-buster-browser-defense-analysis-and.html (insanebits.blogspot.com). Unlike the version in this description, i had to reboot a Win-CD into rescue mode and remove the directory by hand.
Apparently banks in South America offer this "service" to their customers.
Actually, i was wrong. When accessing the Internet, only IP addresses will be kept, not who's talking to whom or what protocol.
Should have read the sources myself, sorry.
Quoted from http://www.vorratsdatenspeicherung.de/
from 2008 onwards it will be possible to trace who has contacted whom via telephone, mobile phone or e-mail for a period of six months. In the case of mobile calls or text messages via mobile phone, the user's location will also be logged. Anonymising services will be prohibited. Sorry, it's not yet the content that is supposed to be kept, but who's talking to whom, that will be kept.
And I was really looking forward to using the Wiimote to hack up some coeds. You better hope no one from your school board reads this, or you'll end up as
the next/.-story.
Sorry, not me. This was one really good just-for-fun episodes. Completely detached from the current arc, playing on clichees and inter-character relationships, insider jokes etc. You cannot do this with a series that's in its first few seasons, you have to build a solid fanbase that really apprecheates this (see various musical episodes like Buffy "Once more, with feeling", Xena and so on).
You can see many base stations, but do they see you? I'd have thought that this radio gear is designed to cover an area as big as possible and thus is aiming downwards or at most horizontal.
I don't the average base station would be able to contact and keep that contact with a high flying, fast moving mobile phone long enough to be confused.
They did win only in the sense of being the getting the most votes (together with the sister party CDU, their relation has been explained already by other posters). If you look at
the offical results you'll see they lost votes, too.
Anyway, this was a federal vote concerning European politics; Linux migration is a municipal affair and the Munich city council has been SPD dominated for ages. Maybe that's what pisses them off.
And think of the good old Amiga, which had that shared memory architecture. Which high load through the chipset, the CPU was slowed considerably when accessing RAM. I remember printing a HiRes picture (640x400, 16 levels of grey), which was dead slow and went much faster after switching to a LoRes screen.
Later models came which so called FastRam, which wasn't affected by the slowdown, but caused all sorts of troubles, as programms couldn't deal with the fact that this RAM wasn't accessible by the grafic chips.
AFAIK, the 939 Socket will actually be for future FX chips and it won't be "just a pin less", but will allow for 4 layered PCBs, instead of expensive 6 layered ones.
I hope and rely on the 754 not to be doomed, as i usually upgrade my CPUs once (K6-2 to K6-3, Athlon 1100 to Athlon XP 1800+), when the chips become cheaper.
The Athlon64 3000+ was just what i was waiting for:

Isn't it dead already? Second Zombie?

No way. MMS is very similar to email, but SMS is SS7-based, which is as weird a protocol as only the telco types could come up with.

Who still remembers the good ol' Fish Disks (not CDs) for the Amiga?

Those were the times, ... :-)

AMD, not Intel
inexpensive
possible upgrade path (unlike XP 3200+ or P4)
I think I'll order after the Christmas rush
