I call Korea from Europe, and the connection drops only very occasionally. Quality is good, provided you give it enough bandwidth to work with (turn down those torrents).
Loose coupling is good, but tight coupling is easier to grasp. I think the point about the 'web shell' was that it would contain most of what users need. Incidentally, Opera is kind of like an internet shell already, it's just lacking an IM client and more polish.
There is a danger that a rich person won't care one bit, no matter how many speeding tickets he gets. That's why it good that it's more expensive for him: the point is that it should sting the same amount for everyone.
I don't quite get the point of your comment. Your tone is negative, but everything that you say seems to agree with the post you (I think) were responding to.

Not only the UK either, that system works in most of Europe. Basically: 10^6 = million; 10^9 = milliard, 10^12 = billion, 10^15 = billiard, and so on using the same pattern.
What part of going into a store and intentionally confusing their customers en masse is ok, how is it not an uninvited act of provocation, and what's wrong with the store wanting to throw them out?
And relating to the story: the store won't call any police if only one person goes in and tells a manager that there's 500 people waiting right outside willing to buy a product in exchange for a discount.
The "sweaty" part can be solved by not biking as fast as possible, and being in good condition to start with. Rain is solved by a biking raincoat, or even just an umbrella (I've done it myself countless times), snow just means you need to prepare your bike for winter, the same way you prepare a car.
A bike gives more flexibility also, I can easily pack up and leave right away with a bike. I even bike to lunch, if I want to go to a restaurant further away. No parking problems. Though obviously not if you mean going to the next city.
Status: in what country on this planet is it funny to use a bike? To me it seems that people bike wherever I go.
Having said all that, it certainly feels easier to take the car, since you don't have to stress any muscles, but that's the point: you get fat.
That's somewhat old info, I think. I don't think it's possible anywhere to resign by email, you need toi put your signature somewhere, that's why you get the paper and return envelope (the date of resignation will however be set to the date you sent the email).
Also, the "regret-month" doesn't exist anymore. As soon as the magistrate or whatever receives the paper back with your name scribbled on it, you've resigned.

..No wait, scratch that argument, I'm confusing bits and bytes again.
Well, speex is still ok at analog modem speeds.
It's sensible to shape everything that is not time-critical, garbage or not.

My employer provides all employees with free Porches right outside every door.
..for English-speaking countries, that is.
And everyone must again be reminded that that's a myth.
You mean Microsoft has done no wrong and no damages in the EU, only the US? Welcome to a more global world.

Skis are supposed to slip on snow and ice by design, while bikes are quite the opposite.
Since they're measuring in inches, it must've been a line.

But if the code's already been changed, why hasn't it been included yet?
I always wondered, what would happen if you had an actual file named CON?
It also allows me to budget it out of my savings.
I think I installed one of those pedometers to track the distance the mouse travels once, but my cursor kept pointing at freenet. What's up with that?
Ubuntu and others don't quite cut Windows in half, but they can very well cut deep enough.
