I meant on a plan / launching platform / whatever. I guess if it's ground based you're correct.
Was thinking about those huge jumbo jets with lasers, I assume they can't store an infinite charge on them. Though maybe it's enough for all possible scenarios.
The guy behind mIRC did this, and I still remember reading an interview with some guy probably years after the first release where he was one of the early people who had actually paid for it assuming that he had to. He was like number 10+ or something such.
So yeah, works great having people pay if they like the product, or not..
I'll charge them a few thousand dollars and put a text file on the root of the installation media that says
Isn't something similar part of OS X copy protection? Text within a kernel module or something such. Can't understand how I can't find it using Google.
This post won't earn me any credits =P, the actual text would had:D
I don't know how it was before but putting the quit application gadget close to everything else is always a good way to screw things up.
Though Windows does that to (and kinda OS X, but it only closes the window, not the whole app.)
Also who the fuck was the moron at Apple who decided that using command-w was a good way to close windows and tabs? How often have I not wanted to close a tab in my browser but rather ending up killing it all (by pressing command-q or atleast nudging q)? And it's not like their browser ask you if you really want to quit, and earlier it didn't recovered the tabs from your last session so you where screwed.
Good one Apple. Let's keep that key combination for another 15 years!
Honestly though, it takes you what? a minute to change the style if you don't like it? I understand its Ubuntu, but skin change? Slow news day much?
It's not like I actually use Ubuntu in the first place, I've just always found it a pretty weird choice of UI style. Same goes for Suns earlier versions of Java Desktop System.
Or well, last part of that comment makes it seem like it was for the moderators and not me =P, but yeah, pretty much agree. It's not like it looks like a huge difference anyway from last I saw Ubuntu. It would be obvious what Linux dist it was =P
Anyway, colors are interesting, I think I've read that various cultures have different colors but kinda like how everyone seemed to have red and if it was blue or green. Red most likely because of blood and the dangers of it and such. And I think it was blue because it reminded me of people saying "blue nigger" if that's something which is even used in english. But yeah, just caught my attention for not using the words brown or black on that occasion. And I do hate it when people use names I'm not used to =P. Can't we all speak hex RGB values please!?!
Also everything about Ubuntu and the word brown, such as: "Ubuntu is shedding its previous brown look" always reminds me of Apples Zune ad, can't find it on YouTube but it's like they talk about all the colors options and then mentions "[pause] brown..."
Hey! Just because I haven't got laid doesn't make me a terrorist. And that's even including me accepting the fact that then I'm dead I'm dead and that's it, no 72 virgins to rescue me in the afterlife.
I put it together for 100 SEK since I remembered the good old days of Warcraft II and even more so Command & Conquer which I wanted to be able to play in LAN. But well, I can honestly say I never did (some wc2.)
Too bad:/
I think it had 2 72 pin and 8 30 pin sockets for memory, hence 40 MB:D
Two diskdrives and four harddrives? Same reason, it was possible so why not =P
286? Beats me, maybe to run some old game which doesn't run well on modern hardware.
386? Beats me.
C64? To get the genuine experience without needing to use an emulator on something modern?
With things like the C64 and the Amiga (or old Apple machines or NES or..) I guess it's not just the software doing it. One want to feel, hear, see and maybe smell the real deal =P
Why get a real painting when you can get a copy? =P
And so on, unnecessary? Maybe. Guess new phones often are to. Atleast some people actually buying this kind of watches may want to wear them for longer than 2-3 years.
The Gerald Genta Arena above had up to 1100 pieces and took a year to pick together. If you want to get and experience some of the magic in a mechanical timepiece which actually manage to keep the time may I suggest watching Longitude the TV-series?
Personally I would prefer something which looked awesome though. The mechanic masterpieces cost way to much anyway (towards a million dollars.)

It's not, if I install say Debian on my desktop and there comes a new Debian version I can most likely upgrade to that one to.
I imagined the benefit of having Android would be that I atleast would be able to upgrade to the latest Android version since the OS was open and eventually even hack and tweak it myself (or let others do that.) For new unsupported hardware that would had been harder but I assume the idea was that the companies who wanted to run Android would write the drivers to run it on their phones, contribute the code and then future versions of Android would keep on running on their phones.
Or am I missing something here? I've already understood that Android phones isn't about 100% freedom but was it really Googles idea that companies would tweak out there own versions? Not run stock? That phones wouldn't be upgradeable (atleast with stock version even though the original was tweaked?) That there would be no contributions back (oh teh horrorz of lost ip and involuntarily developing for others even if you benefit the most from the cooperation!)
Anyway it shouldn't be a problem, and it wouldn't be if it worked as desktop Linux distributions did, so how is that insightful?
Company got hardware, company make Android run, company submit patches, Google merge the patches and keep future versions running on the hardware = Everyone is happy. No?

Ok, so please inform us how you would had hardened their systems against the DDoS if there was one.
And paying customers still get to take it in the ass
Ah, so there IS a reason to still buy the game after all! :D

Ok, so it will come for N900 to then? Not just the next phone in the line?
Then all is fine.
Regarding Moblin vs MeeGo I didn't remembered the name but rather just googled Maemo Intel and picked the first name I saw and assumed it was right =P
Just because they are free doesn't mean they aren't patent infringing!
Maemo is already dead, kinda.
It don't sounds like the N900 will get anything from Moblin and I guess future phones won't get Maemo so ..

True that.

You can get a 486 (DX2 66 MHz?) with 40 MB ram and eventually four harddrives, 3com 509b NIC and I think two disk drives if you come pick it up here.
I live in Sweden.
Or what about an analog digital one? :D
Or for the people in Vegas one which let them play jackpot for free?
More cool videos:
* Zenith Zero G
* There also was a video for the Harry Winston Opus 7
A. Lange & Söhne

Why wear a watch?
Well, if the watches isn't a reason enough of their own: .. Maybe the UR-202 will get cheaper now? Not that it makes a difference.
* Urwerk UR-202
* Gerald Genta Arena Metasonic Sonnerie
* Mr. Jones The Accurate
* Or say Harry Winston Ocean Project Z6, but now when I just checked there was also a new UR-203
What about a watch being one of the few jeweleries for men?

The amazing thing is that they HAVE funded it...
Funny/informative:
"Atleast it's free of side effects!"
Off-topic but related to funny:
My dad may have died from the Risperdal given to him while he had Alzheimer.
But then they become part of modern medicine and we still benefit from them so what's the big deal?
Also isn't part of homeopathy to dilute the things until there is nothing left anyway? So then it's truly placebo.
