  1. Re:First answer SPOILERS... on 2005 Google U.S. Puzzle Championship · · Score: 1

    You're correct at first, but you can't put the other numbers whereever you want, as you can't repeat them.

    So the block will look like:

    4213
    1324
    2431
    3142
  2. Not so much precompiles as.. on 360's Backwards Compatibility Weak? · · Score: 1

    Not so much precompiles as it's mostly going to be emulated (VirtualPC!), but of course some re-releases are inevitable.

  3. Re:What a screwed up link.. on Dan Gillmor Launches Grassroots Journalism · · Score: 1

    Well, that's the link that was given anyway, but really it boils down to the dev pushing his system directly.

    So in case you missed it, this is infact TFA: Why Drupal.

    Worth noting is the update at the end of the article: Update: killes points out at Drupal.org, "Chris Messina (a.k.a factoryjoe) has spend long hours with Dan to convince him to use Drupal. Thanks Chris." Indeed.

  5. *ahem* Been there seen that... on Open source Java? · · Score: -1, Redundant
  6. On behalf of all the Dutch.. on Dutch Academics Declare Research Free-For-All · · Score: 1

    On behalf of all the Dutch*,

    thanks dude!

    (And no, you can not have some weed with that, as the Dutch youth actually smoke less of the stuff than youth many other countries do - true fact)

    *Eventhough I'm a mix, but what the heck :)

  7. Bullocks. on Yahoo Introduces Competitor for iTunes · · Score: 2, Informative

    iRiver's players are top quality and have superior sound. This comes from personal testing (iMP-400 & H10) and from reading the main tech forums.

  8. Re:diff -uBwr KDE_KHTML/ Safari_KHTML/ on Safari And KHTML May Never Meet · · Score: 1

    Is it me, or can they just take the Safari_Khtml and work from that? Seems easier to me...

  9. Re:And naturally it follows on French Courts Ban DRM on DVDs · · Score: 1

    Ha! Surely you jest, given that 90% of the US populace is religious.

  10. Nope, here it is: on iTunes Store Available in Australia Very Soon · · Score: 1

    No it isn't.

    AUSD 1,80 are EUR 1,08 or USD 1,40.

    That might seen high converted to US Dollars, but given how low the US Dollar is, it's a good price for a number of reasons.

    1) You can probably buy the same for USD 0,99 in the US as you can buy for AUSD 1,80 in Australia.

    2) *and this is actually the most important one*
    If/when the dollar goes up, Apple will still get enough back in Dollars.

  11. Re:And naturally it follows on French Courts Ban DRM on DVDs · · Score: 1

    Given the *ver strict* seperation of church and state in France, don't hold your breath for that one.

  12. Re:One of the greatest SciFi series on Daleks Return to Dr Who · · Score: 1

    Well, that's mainly because the dialog, lighting and staging is just too horrible for words. Proper BBC shows (and earlier Dr. Who series) were a lot better than this. _that's_ why there's no real hype about it.

  13. Re:Yes, now that they've fixed all the limitations on Daleks Return to Dr Who · · Score: 3, Funny

    What if we made all the doors just that bit too narrow for them to get through!!!

    Shhh, that's China's plan to foil the American takeover of earth!*

  15. Re:Objective-C++...? on GCC 4.0.0 Released · · Score: 1

    Well, just have them put in a proper request to apple instead/as well as the mailing list. Apple can't read minds! You have to communicate to be heard..really. Sheesh.

  16. Re:Objective-C++...? on GCC 4.0.0 Released · · Score: 1

    Oh come on!

    You're not even trying to understand the argument here.

    Remember: Just because you want something and are a gcc user, doesn't mean that _any other person_ would want it too.

    What is wrong with you that makes you berate a company for listening to it's clients?

    I generally find though that it's the smaller people (aside from tall ones) that I get along best with.
    It's the medium heights that react to height in the ways you (and grandparent poster) described.

  20. Re:Flawed? on CSS Support Could Be IE7's Weakest Link · · Score: 3, Informative

    Actually, depending on what you want to do:

    a {common formatting}
    containing_element1 a {specific formatting}
    containing_element2 a {specific formatting}

    This decreases all the classes you need to add.

    PS. For those that don't read css: The last line reads: all the "a" located in the "containing_element2" have to recieve {specific formatting}. (and it overrides the common formatting too if you define, say, the margins again.)
