The UK can always ditch the JSF in favor of the Eurofighter. Maybe it won't work as well for them as the JSF would have, but OTOH the Eurofighter is not a security risk capable of crippling the RAF.
A coding MMORPG! You first have to spend hours leveling up your project by grinding with specification issues, then you can finally class change to Alpha and start implementing stuff (and if you're really good a high-level issue might even drop a unique solution!) - and if development takes too long you have to go gold farming in PHB territory. Once you have reached the Final class there's not much more to be done but PvP, though.
I'd like to learn more about Postgres (especially since my SQL knowledge is only mildly above that of the generic LAMP user (y'know, I've used JOIN once)), but I have no idea where to look. A book would probably be a good idea, but a) I don't know which ones are decent and b) I don't quite feel like shelling out thirty bucks for a book I'm not sure about.
You do know that the name "UNIX" is a punny reference to MULTICS? The name has no redeeming qualitites of its own. It's even misleading: MULTICS stood for "Multiplexed Information & Computing Service". UNIX would be the "Uniplexed Information & Computing Service", implying a single user OS.
So essentially the name of Linux implies that it's a clone of a single user operating system. Not quite good marketing, eh?
What's especially annoying about MySQL is that some of the more advanced functionality is in MaxDB, which is a separate product (although it doesn't seem to be more than a more professional MySQL). Things like UNION would be handy but aren't supported by MySQL.
However it's quite unlikely to ever see Postgres on a non-commercial site even if the admins have root access and could set it up. Because MySQL is the default and it's good enough. If it doesn't support UNION you can just make multiple queries instead.
Bleh.
I do admit that I privately mainly use MySQL, but then again most of the tables I make hold twenty entries and are only ever accessed via "SELECT * FROM foo;"...
Holy shit. That's pretty fucked up. Then again the United States are pretty old and people probably didn't see that tripwire when they designed the system (which still is no excuse for not fixing it).
1.) Gather people who would continue running the site
2.) Give a copy of all your data to those people, excluding the site design
3.) Receive ten million dollars from *AA
4.) Give enough money to the people from step 1 to afford new servers
5.) "Wow! I'd never have thought that $PERSON would start a new tracker!"
6.) Use the mones the *AA gave you to fund an anti-copyright media campaign.
If done right, this could effectively leave the site in place while getting the *AA to spend millions funding an anti-*AA campaign without you committing a crime.
No, really, it is theft. The Pirate Bay has hired Magical Trevor to disappear the DVD master and all unsold copies of any software shared on TPB. Whenever something shows up on TPB you can't ever buy it again, anywhere. You can buy lots of beans, though.
Everyone loves Magical Trevor
Because the tricks that he does are ever so clever.
Look at him now, disappearing a show.
Where is the show heading right now?
Taking a bow is Magical Trevor,
Everyone has seen that the trick is clever.
Uh-huh. A hostile takeover will work really well there, the fact that TPB is not a public company nonwithstanding.
Really, how are the *AAs supposed to buy TPB out if the people running it don't want to sell it? This works with public companies because you can just buy all their stock until you have 51%, but you can't force a private person to sell you anything. At least not legally.
If you want an example of a socialist state look to Europe - Denmark, Sweden and to a lesser extent the UK, France, Netherlands, etc.
Those are not socialist states. Social democratic, yes, but not socialist. Just because those two terms sound similar doesn't mean that they're synonymous.
Moore didn't do that much harm; you were seen as gun nuts before (the NRA is really great at reinforcing that image). Then again, Germans who did a student exchange to the USA later told about being asked whether German schools have beer vending machines, because in Germany you are allowed to drink beer at the age of 16... (Note: You are allowed to drink at 16, but you are not allowed to drink at school.) Makes you wonder how much of any given country's public image actually reflects the truth. Probably something below 10%.
1.) Organize your Applications folder by creating subfolders. This step is not necessary, but in my opinion it makes the whole thing easier to use.
2.) Drag the Applications folder onto the Dock. Put it to the right of the separator bar.
3.) Right-click the Applications folder in the dock and get easy access to all your apps. Left-click it to open it in a Finder window.
It appears that the USA are a lot better than their reputation, it seems. Then again, your reputation concerning guns is that of a fetishist... I would not have expected compulsory traning to be that widespread.
Okay, but if you take the people who are not consumer whores buying everything the TV tells them to (and I'm pretty sure that there are a couple tousand of those in the States) you might get someone besides the two big parties to show up on the radar. The goal would not be to get a third-party president but just to get a third party into Congress. To get people to notice that a vote for someone besides the Democrats or Republicans is not "thrown away". The long-term goal would be to get a small party enough market share that none of the big parties can govern by itself.

I think tat the UK can trust the UK and the EU can trust the EU. Especially since both aren't committed to being the world's number one everything.
Besides, the fact that you've won land in a war doesn't justify the taking. Maybe people can't do anything about it, but it's still wrong.

I already tried that. Nothing happened.

No, you lost the instant you typed "GOTO Sleep". GOTO is considered harmful, and now you know why: You have been eaten by a BASIC developer.
*insert examples here*
I think if you remove the asterisks that already is a valid AppleScript example...
You're right. I confused UNION with INTERSECT.
I'd like to learn more about Postgres (especially since my SQL knowledge is only mildly above that of the generic LAMP user (y'know, I've used JOIN once)), but I have no idea where to look.

Any hints on something usable?

Coincidentally, the instant I read your comment XMMS switched to a song calld "Touch and Go"...

Socialism is an ideology of a social and economic system in which the means of production are collectively owned and administered democratically by all of society.
The term not only is also used to describe a political ideology, it's also used to describe an ideology not found in Europe.

It was not obvious that something like this would happen.
It's Mighty Mouse user slang for Control-click.
Sorry, I can't really tell... Then again, what did you expect? This is Slashdot, after all.

A little trick for the "no launch bar" problem:
1.) Organize your Applications folder by creating subfolders. This step is not necessary, but in my opinion it makes the whole thing easier to use.
2.) Drag the Applications folder onto the Dock. Put it to the right of the separator bar.
3.) Right-click the Applications folder in the dock and get easy access to all your apps. Left-click it to open it in a Finder window.
