... but then we don't say "metric ton" or "kilogram."
We say ton and kilo. And that's all.
And then it's not that confusion, at least if you're used to it since the start of your life.
Because then "ett kilo" = weight unit, "ett hekto" = smaller weight unit, "ett gram" = 1/1000 of a weight unit;) and finally "ett ton" = 1000 weight units!"
Funny how the weight unit is named in kilos. Makes me wonder whatever the kilo = 1000 or kilo = weight definition came first?
Also I can't remember any occurrences of hearing "how fast do you run one hektometer?" "Stereon? Den kostar två kilo fem hektokronor!"
I didn't got your point, but in reality the rest garbage will be burnt and hence the plastic and cat poo will turn into energy and the cat litter won't burn so I guess that may end up in the land fill.
This region got mostly immigrants though so I assume they are just too retarded or used to the shit-hole they came from.
If you're used to leave your trash out on the street maybe it's not so weird that you do it here to..
They leave large items out in the parking lot for "someone else" to pick up and leave there they should be left.
Anyhow, yeah, they suck, regardless the statistics is pretty good. But of course it would probably be even better if everyone only lived in the cities with close distances to the recycling stations and with less filthy immigrants.
Ah, but have you talked to the people who are actually doing your "recycling"?
No, but I've seen the number of states doing any bottle recycling at all in the US, and even less so plastic bottles if I remember accordingly. I've also seen the numbers for how many bottles got recycled in the state with the highest refund upon returning.
I assume the numbers where quite similar for our whole country as they where for that state. Think it was well above 90%.
Some people only want to look at cost or energy consumption, and I'm not convinced recycling fails even there, but anyhow atleast you recycle the material as well. Also who wants to throw in an estimated price for cleaning up the great pacific garbage patch? No one?
It's quite easy to make the numbers work if you decide what you want to count or not..

... got recycled, because I live in the civilized part of the world.
The only thing going straight to the land-fill is cat litter in a plastic bag.
Maybe you should try it sometime. And don't give that Bullshit-BS. It still recycle resources and maybe your recycling would be more efficient if it happened on a large scale instead of just a few states.
Of course yes, because then it would had been fixed.
Stupid question.
Or maybe you talk about people who are against Wikileaks? In that case I guess they are just stupid.
I elect my leaders, I should be able to know what the fuck they do and if they do their job right (most likely not) and/or should be replaced (definitly.)
As far as my mac goes battery life probably got better after installing some fan setting application. I don't think it let you override the system settings as far as "slower" goes, only raise them, and it improved somewhat since that P.O.S. got really hot. It was probably called fan control or something such.
Battery life sucked though but that's to be expected if running in a machine at 70 degrees Celsius or such..
Never overclocked on it though because I don't think overclocking pays for itself in most cases.
Your hack not working shouldn't be a warranty issue and if anything else fails regardless of whatever the phone where hacked or not how does the hack matters?

It's still thousands so I don't see the problem. :)
I don't know what your native units are though
Anyway, what I find much more disturbing is the fact that one liter of water weight 1 kilo gram (old definition)
WTF is up with that?
Why isn't the definition 1 gram = 1 liter of water?
1 milliliter of water = 1 gram
1 liter of water = 1 kilogram.
1 kiloliter of water = 1 megagram.
Yeah, that makes sense .. :D
So does the US government.
Thankfully there is Wikileaks.

I have no reason to speak to them. I'm quite sure it works well here.

91% of our ~1 one billion aluminum cans get recycled.
Latest recycling refund is 1 sek = 0.15 US$
http://pantamera.se/pet.asp
88% of our 600 million plastic bottles get recycled.
Refund is 1-2 sek depending on size.

Handles more or less everything else.
5800 recycling stations spread around the country, but the you got local collection points as well.

What's the problem with Google Checkout? They will steal your purchase data?

EVERYONE lock down your BSD boxen and prepare for Thermonuclear War!!1!
Do I want to play a game? NO!
This is why everyone should play their games on consoles. .. they have no nukes!

If only I hadn't wasted my mod points by writing a comment :D
That gotta hurt :D
with FOSS I and (everyone else should for that matter), expect that there are no backdoors and it does exactly what it says it does.
You're pretty stupid then.
Or the code is there, for you to look at, if you want. There's no guarantee someone else has or that it's quality code.

Never overclocked on it though because I don't think overclocking pays for itself in most cases.
Less functionality is good because it's only supposed to be the functionality Apple wants/can profit from anyway? =P
Oh well, plenty of used N900 ads around :)
Why? Apples margins of the iPhone4 is probably huge.
And given that you can't turn off or remove the battery form an iPhone
They have done the same to the laptops now :D
You can't remove the battery of the Macbook Pro (or well, can and can, of course you can, but you're not supposed to.)
Want to know how to make even more profit on ridicilously overpriced machines? :D
Apple suck.
Your hack not working shouldn't be a warranty issue and if anything else fails regardless of whatever the phone where hacked or not how does the hack matters?
Actual cost of my Macbook Pro ended up being closer to $ 5.5 / day.
Except a 8cm CD MP3-player the most stupid purchase of my life.
Once the system is "untrustable" it is not trustable.
So tell me once again why I should vote? :/
