But I do not live in a society like that, and neither does the United States. Their is an international community and it may not be perfect but their is one. And I live in a community. That is kind of a definition of civilisation, you know, the whole agriculture instead of hunter gatherer thing. The whole giving up thousands of years of kicking the shit out of whoever for our benefit whether they are a threat or not and replacing it with cooperative effort.
If the US will subscribe to things like economic sanctions, whether their idea or not, they have subscribed to the idea. Such action is not taken against a state because they are a nice friendly place, it is because there is something "wrong" there. But a choice has been made. Standing firm and making your decision right is a far stronger message than saying fuckit, bomb the bastards.
And yes, that is about being better than them, not as an individual, not as a culture, but as an opposing side of whatever the argument is.
If you cannot prove you are "better" than them, then maybe you are not, and should accept it.

p.s. better does not equal bigger, stonger, my dad can beat up your dad, I can afford bigger guns.
I don't know, thats why I don't run a country, but I do know that if someone tried to kill my company boss or father or whoever, I would not go and firebomb their fucking house!!
I think it is because I was brought up in a civillised society where you just dont do that kind of thing. Something to do with being "better than them" I think.
There are plenty of places between London and Edinburgh to ship police from, and if the whole police/security service decided G8 ment anything happening elsewhere was less likely, I would be dissapointed and very, very surprised.
I don't think you can criticise well received and supported protest about a significant issue for another incident.
"The bombing of Iraq (im assuming you mean teh one by Clinton) was in responce to an assaniation attempt on an ex-president."
Is that supposed to be reasonable and proportional, someone attempted an assasination, bomb the country? And it is their fault it spirals out of control I guess.....
" Also be angry with a government that would lie to you about "power failures" until it was certain that it had things under control."
Seeing as those were the initial suspicions of the London underground after one unexplained incident and rapidly this first assessment was changed as more "incidents" occurred I think you can remove your tinfoil hat on this one you prat. You really think that every media outlet, including other countries (you get loads of news channels on satellite) made Her Majesties Government their 1st port of call?

I guess this can cover windows, just makes it tricky to see out of them afterwards. If you nip over to the site you will see they sell a film to cover windows, cuts out 45% of light but that is better than 100%.
Any other holes I guess a mesh of the right size will do the biz in a Faraday cage style.
It probably handles being struck by lightning as well as any other bulb. Badly.
In fact like most things not specifically for lightning strikes (like lightning conductors) and a few things that get lucky by having a metal cage (like cars), lightning is just bad news.

Something like it, but much smaller, I might not enjoy my cycling when I am on roads with a 36 meter span! Might be a bit more tricky to park as well.
Like the one that crossed the English Channel, the problem I guess is making it efficient enough to support the weight, now if you could power a couple of ultra efficient ducted fans, what was that thing, Solotrek?

So, at the end of this are we goingto end up with the ultimate anti ProPlus? Wake up and can't shake your hangover thanks to weeks of late nights on ProPlus then a party to celebrate whatever is over?
Pop an AmMinus and sleep it off for a week/month/year (make sure you take the correct dosage).
Think that could come in handy, a two day pill would be nice, probably no hardware required for just a couple of days.
Not to be picky but how popular was AAC before Apple picked it? Still not sure it is that popular now but if a company can't "protect" their product, and they want to, then they will pick something that offers that "protection".
I do not know, does OGG offer any kind of DRM? I am guessing not. Which leaves us with home rips and file sharing, back where we started, without a source to buy the product, rather than, erm, borrow it.
Could leave it on the window sill next time you have a power cut though. Sorry, don't live in the states, didn't mean to be insesitive!
Solar chargers always seem like top ideas though. Small panel, top of rucksack, just to keep topping up whatever, hell it would just work a radio, but just to streach the life of an iPod to an hour or so more? Might just make a day out then? If it's sunny enough.
Who, when advertising, underestimated the possible battery life? All the quotes I remember about battery life (but I have not checked for the iPod) are based on "optimum conditions" or "up to" however long.
Whoever the manufacturer I think their claims (max speed, time, savings etc) are mainly calculated, theoretical maximums. Real life is rarely optimised.
Unfortunately yes, and having recently returned to University unlikley to want to replace my old Panasonic DVD player. It also needs some hardware hack as well as the nicer "play with the universal remote and put this in" type unlocking.
Now that region free players seem ten a penny I would agree that region coding will just make it harder for so called legitimate channels, like Blockbuster or DVD resellers,to compete with overseas web based shops. Shops who are cheaper, quicker to market but wil probably have region 1 or other disks.
Region free player = cheap films earlier
and I don't think the players will go away (would like one though, some of us always get left behind)
and if the T1 goes down they have no connection, and if whatever provides their other connection has its pole knocked down or cables dug up they lose their connection. All this is, is another possible connection, if connectivity is vital to your business then you will have a backup plan. If not you probably have a cheap ups that will back up data then shut down the machine int the 5 mins you have anyway. Or nothing and you will curse the f**king power company and read a magazine.
It's just another option.
"The stretch they are referring to is when the rear suspension is compressed, the chain is now longer than it needs to be due to the geometry changing - Not the stretch of the actual physical chain."
hmmm.
"What about lubing, inspecting for stretch and replacing"
Why would you have to inspect for stretch if the installed chain was just longer? You inspect for stretch to see if the chain has worn, regardless of how long it is.
As far as the design of this system is concerned I would suspect the actual chain used is shorter, no need to go around the derailleur any more.
I just think it is about the actual physical chain. This post anyway.
That is what is referred to as stretch in a bicicle chain. Measure the distance between the middle of two links 12 inches apart and if it grows the chain (maybe not the individual links, but the overall chain) is longer after a while.

No, although a solid panel has got to be an improvement over a tent, and it also suggests it can form the interior of a beefed up structure.

Just because advertisers DO lie doesn't mean they SHOULD lie.
True, I wonder if the "up to" bit is their way of saying "no more than" though. Not the whole truth as opposed to a whole untruth. Bloody lawyers.
Maybe I have finally become desensitised to the advertiser, only brand I still look for is Farleys rusks. Mmmmmmm, shopping trip.
