You're talking about the japanese or about the british? Because war was won a long time before Hiroshima, which was just a demonstration of what MacArthur could do when he was pissed off.
As far as I know, you jumped into the war like cowboys, not caring about intelligence and tactics. And about the fact that you supposedly won the war, the Second battle of the Atlantic was not won by Americans (though it's true you gave a "help"), Einstein was German and jewish, Turing (British) was working at Bletchley Park (UK) and Von Newmann was Hungarian. The fact that Manhattan Project was american is mainly monetary.
And if you look at the Internation Monetary Fund, you'll exactly the inverse: EU being way ahead of US. That is because the World Bank list is for 2004, while the IMF is 2005. Read the headlines, not just the numbers.
And for all practical purpose in this context, EU should be considered as a whole entity.
Nice traceroute. But in the event of even a cable cut, I would likely see Google get a server out there servicing its google.* than losing some hundred of millions europeans... don't you? (reminder: EU is bigger than US).
However, it seems very stupid to destroy.com just to prove a point.
What point exactly? That <sarcasm>american are selfish arrogants who think they are the only ones to have commerce and government and therefore merits a.com and.gov?</sarcasm>. Or that those.com,.net and.org tld are not used for their original purposes anymore? Shouldn't americans uses its own medicine and start using the.us tld? I personnally see things like atari.com going to the global internationalized version of their site (choosing country, etc), and then redirecting to www.atari.us. More meaningful if you ask me.
Main problem is, because everyone can buy any Domain name, business cannot own them even if it's in their own rights. So now www.atari.us, even though there's no other atari than the one known, isn't owned by atari itself because some little advertisement byproduct seller got their hands on it first. IANAL, but isn't it a part of what trademarks were made for?
But I'm sure the French really DO have credit cards for their dogs - I know they have special diners for their dogs and stuff. Crazy French.
That reminds me of a documentary on american dogs: some have their cemetary, their family doctors (with weekly visits), their own manicurists, special trainers to keep them in good shape, and birth/death certificate with special social numbers... want me to tell about majordomes and houses (bigger than my dad's) as well as their own catholic church?
Bye-bye, Google, Yahoo! and Lycos. Bye-bye, Ebay. Bye-bye Slashdot.
Last time I tried, google.ch, yahoo.be, Lycos.fr, ebay.it worked very well. And they probably can live without slashdot. And kernel.org wouldn't be missed either, because they have their own vanilla kernel mirrors.
Plus, let's not forget that if the EU built their own Internet, that would mean that they wouldn't be able to access the rest of the world's Internet - unless they connected to our Internet.
I don't see your point, a cable being naught but a cable. They could certainly well connect to asia and africa without being connected to US (filtering if that's what's taken).
Otherwise I could register netraven5000.com on the US Internet, and someone in Europe could register it on the EU Internet.
I would like to have whole planet data and stats about this, please. Just the USA is not enough to stipulate there is no growth. Also, separated by regions and stuff would be useful. I haven't found this sort of data, so no links posted.
Hey, you're right. The general public is well informed about tech issues, never is fooled by MS propaganda, understands computer security issues and mades thoughtful decisions to obtain windows. I've got it!
Explain to me too what exactly does it bring to publish stuff for only a small (techies) portion of the computer userbase? Advertize the product, sell it with computer (main point of why windows is easier to install, right?), but stop bugging me with "Linux is more secure than Windows"... I KNOW THIS! I don't need to be told that. My mom does, my friends who build cars or fly plane does, because they have something else on their mind than whats-a-computer-is and what is the difference between an os and another.
Inform the non-tech people that there is another operating system (called lineucs), and they'll ask you what's the difference, why they should learn it (when they already know how windows works) and will it make their lives better. After many arguments I found myself out of speech: more secure? He doesn't care about security, only once his computer doesn't work at all. More programs? Cracked MS Office 2003 (with Outlook), IE or firefox and Photoshop (oops) make enough. More games? Quake3 (yeah, that old game than most of your friends don't play anymore), Tux Racer, Wesnoth (good graphics)... But I want to play WoW and Counter Strike Source... hummm... then you have an emulator on linux... it's not as good as the original... What about my webcam, my printer, my camera, my 2 thousand keys Logitech duo and its killer mouse? And right after that, the big one: "You tell me to change when what I have is good enough for what I do?"
I can bet you that if I ever have an argument with you, you're in deep one. I know Linux, I use it and have mostly free software (OOo, GIMP, etc). But I know people are often not going to it and I know exactly why they don't. They don't use it because they don't have to, and they don't need to. The only way is to force Linux into homes, and some are making good steps in that direction: Linspire, some shops that sell computers with linux pre-installed... That's what we need. Not tech-oriented speech that tells tech-oriented people exactly what they already know.
Oh please, pretty please. Explain to me why, why in this case, Linux, in its greatest magnificient userfriendliness, doesn't surpass Windows usage when it comes to pops and moms computer?
Having RTFA, it would probably have given you much more knowledge on the topic than you previously had, right? Because it gave you sooo much insightful information that wasn't previously covered...
I sometimes wonder if it's possible to moderate articles "flamebait"... Because bashing windows without any objectivity to that rate is not considered editorial anymore in my book. It's easily made in 5 minutes (2 if you don't have any formatting), and will bring cash to your company by being sure posted on slashdot.
Next, since when does my grand mother needed to use a freaking command line to do any of her stuff? Granted, for server stuff, you need a command line on Windows, and that grounds (servers) is owned by Linux more and more (Unix-flavored OSes too).
Also, want to talk about games runned full rate? I don't know many power Unreal or Battlefield 2 players who use Transgaming...
call me troll, or overrated, but I really think I've made my point, and instead of just giving the traditional "ooooh aaaah" or "boooh", you should try to make a discussion.
I've seen a thousand freaking works that said that actually, women were more 'intelligent' and men faster, stronger, and physically more potent.
Those studies all said that men were sexists and machos and that's why the contrary was believed... and also that IQ tests have been conceived with "manly" intelligence in mind. Oh and their X chromosone, with more genes.
I also have seen 999 studies that said that men were more brilliant, more responsible and able to have more challenging and decisive chairs in society, because we're more intelligence.
Those studies told us that women were jealous... or something like this. And that the past of women roles in society made it rough for them to have developed "genetical" intelligence, or whatever it was. Oh and the size of their brain.
Now what's great is that study here puts the count to 1000 versus 1000. Which is great.
Personnally I say we call it even, and just say that war was created by men, love thought by women, and sex was invented to fill the gap.
When I search something as Windows XP, I actually does Windows+XP, not XP... was that same for Windows 2000 and Windows NT... I know Vista is as common as a spanish noun and won't search for it alone. If people do that, they're not lazy, but stupid. My point: GGGGGGP was funny, not insightful.
Funny fact is, if every/.er would give a nickle to salvation army, then I guess they would have a good amount of money. It doesn't matter how much, charity is charity. You have something against that? Then keep your money for yourself.
Anyway, I'm pretty sure you wouldn't give that nickle you're talking about. When's the last time you gave something to someone?
You lost your toad in the sewer and when you went after it you found a giant tank (don't remember even if there was a reason for it to be there) and go on your journey to find back your toad.
That's what I remember.... man, that was something. I loved the game though.
Actually, if you don't use your laptop at the same time you use your desktop (or you're not at work at the same time you're at home, etc), you don't need to have 2 licenses for using software from Microsoft.
Some times ago, we asked Microsoft if a big guy from the company could share an Office license with his daughter, and they just said that "as long as they both didn't use it at the same time".
Otherwise, what would be the use of installing the shortcuts in "common/start menu" instead of the installing users?
Your point being? More wattage means more battery consumption, if I remember my electricty courses correctly.
Of course, if this was a question, I can assure you that, yes, 27 is greater than 16 (I'm just in a bad mood, mod me whatever you want, it won't be the first unsmart mod down).

RTFA.
Thanks for trying. Please come again.
A iPod software developper friend told me he was writing coffee-making code.
right! right?
"Thank you, please come again".
And why would they bother trying it the first time? Just to lose some 30 minutes or more?

That's seem like a nice browser. Do they make this for men?
