it doesn't fits in at all with Mac OS X. Well - you can hardly say they're not trying - after all, the reason the current "standard" theme was nicknamed "winstripe" is because it was based on a theme called "pinstripe" - and guess which OS themes called "pinstripe" are generally intended to look like?
I set up linux with boot camp and it could see the osx partition just fine - now, windows lacks an HFS driver, but surely one could be installed. or a virus could mess up the raw partition itself.
If you superimpose two of the images by crossing your eyes, you'll find that they're identical pixel-for-pixel except in the labels - these aren't photographs.
Except neither star trek nor star wars have lasers (yeah, yeah, except for a few very early episodes of star trek original series) - star trek has "phasers" (and the bad guys have "disruptors" which are apparently the same except they sound more evil) and star wars has "blasters".
A bit different to what the Wikipedia article says
I've heard elsewhere that you turn the dial the opposite direction in the southern hemisphere due to the coriolis effect, maybe that's why the number of pulses are reversed? Just kidding of course, but the wikipedia article _does_ mention that it's different in NZ. - a google image search reveals that on NZ phone dials the numbers are arranged differently.

"Xena" To Be Named Eris
·
· Score: 5, Interesting
the EF in EFnet stands for "Eris free" - in the sense of "without Eris". There was a misconfigured server called eris.berkeley.edu and a bunch of server admins got together to make a new network so they could ban it.
But every single instance of "t" is the exact same pixels in a screenshot - how do you justify it being interpreted as "i" in some cases and "l" in other cases?
Okay, what criteria define major and minor? Define "smaller checks"?
My point was that it could be proportional to production - if you make a dozen light bulbs, you get one cent - if you make 100 billion light bulbs, you get 83 million dollars. Is that really so hard to understand?
But wouldn't the best way to destroy the market for _actual_ porn be to make sure that simulated (CGI, anime, people who just _look_ young but are actually over 18) material is legal so that it can easily outcompete it?
2) kitchen-table light - on a rheostat. Don't even BOTHER putting these on a rheostat. You don't even get the normal span of an incandescent out of it.
I assume "rheostat" (being a word for a variable resistor) means the kind of switch where you turn a knob or move the lever in a halfway position to cut the amount of current going to the light? Most CF bulbs will have a warning not to use them on this sort of switch, it's a fire hazard because it doesn't allow them to get up to their full efficiency (thus they'll generate a lot more heat at the lower voltages) unless they're specifically designed to allow it.
As for LEDs - there are some on thinkgeek/etc but they're nowhere near as much light as normal incandescent/cfl bulbs. http://www.thinkgeek.com/gadgets/lights/7aa8/ - doesn't say there, but 60 lumens is about equivalent to a 25-watt incandescent bulb.

The solution? Make sure all your additions have a TV antenna integral to the structure.
Officially, "non-free is not part of debian". That's been the 'company line' for _ages_.

You can't cmd-tab to dashboard widgets, or have them show up in the dock, etc, either.
What would be nice would be a "web app wrapper" program in the same vein as the various executable shell/perl script wrappers.
Eh? Don't you get pretty much the same content on B&W as color tv? If I mess with the settings so there's no color, can I pay for a B&W licence?
How about a show about the enterprise-C - sure we'd know how it ends, but it was in service for, according to a novel it was in, 12 years.
Or the enterprise B, for that matter, which hasn't been explored at all in canon apart from Generations.
Or some OTHER show.
Or a show about what enlisted life is like in starfleet.
Or a show about all the interesting stuff that happens on earth in any era [weren't they planning on building a new continent?]
There's plenty of room for a new and different show other than some other show's main cast's academy days.

as speeding is a criminal matter ... and the level of proof required is different...
The level of proof required in traffic court is zero. All that's required is that the officer shows up.
The above is precisely why you will never be allowed to participate in a jury.

I have no idea what kind of input is optimal, but for a first shot in the dark, that's not too shabby. I'll go play with it some more.
meh. a _screenshot_ contains perfectly regular characters - if it can't ace _that_ then I don't _want_ to see what it does with a scanned page.

1998. Well... 5 Nov 97 to 5 Nov 98.
The GPL nullifies copyright. With copyright's abolition, the GPL is redundant and unnecessary.
With copyright's abolition, how do you stop me from releasing my closed source free(beer)ware application based on GPL code?

We can all read newspaper articles, decide on guilt/innocence based on the bias of a writer, get called for jury duty and have the case thrown out.
You forgot the american way - "We can all read newspaper articles, decide on guilt/innocence based on the bias of a writer, and get out of jury duty."
From what I've read elsewhere online, 60 lumens is equivalent to 20 watts incandescent.
(in other words, if you replace all your incandescents with these, your house will be a lot darker)

Isn't it more likely that the RFI has simply moved from the (already pretty much SOL) 60/120hz bands to 20Khz?
...if the government just writes a few big checks to major CFL manufacturers.
First, define "major CFL manufacturers". You'll need a committee for that.
How about this: minor CFL manufacturers get smaller checks.
