The other 2 times weren't him, they were accidents that knocked the pipe out. Although it was probably his initial attempt that weakened the pipe connection.
My favouriate incident was when my druken friend decided to try and have a drink out of my watercooling setup.
After he pulled the pipe out of the pump I distinctly remember 'hearing' the sound of water hitting a fan followed by 'seeing' that the pump was pushing water upwards-straight into my graphics card fan which was very effectively 'flicking' water over the rest of the PC.
PCs are hard to break, and after 2 days drying out it worked fine.
NB: this happened three times and after the third time and the purchase of my x800 xt I moved back to fans
you do realise that in google if you have the gmail user id no.spam.for.haydn that messages sent to n.o.s.p.a.m.f.o.r.h.a.y.d.n@gmail.com will get to your inbox, in fact you can add dots wherever you like, then if a dot combination gets too much spam you can put a filter on it. This way you don't have to cycle so many accounts.
I have to change my passwprd once a month and I always write down a password hint
So if my password was 'omg_this_is_hard_password!' i would write down 'you will never guess this months password, it's hard!' and that would be enough for me to remember
They kick arse and stop people having to live on the streets when housing is plentiful but not affordable, hell its not unknown for people to claim houses worth million in England (if you squat a house for 12 years you can claim it as your own) and even an island!
1. Arrive at uni and buy E-books (profit) 2. Months in the course starts 3. Books 'run-out' 4. Re-buy book. (profit) 5. Course finishs 6. Book run-out again 7. Exam timetables come through 8. Start revising 9. have to buy books again (profit)
a bit of a change to the normal list, but 3 times the profit!
Some programs will aways need the PC, but for at least 80% of the general public I don't think they do. All they use their PC for is data processing at work or the Internet. Where I work, lots of things we used to do with Docs are moving into our Intranet.
Games are starting to move into Consoles, Email on-line, Word Documents on intranets or email, Music onto your ipod, Movies on to TV. What does the average user actually need a PC for?
Hell, I bought a laptop and hardly ever use my main pc anymore (except storage and games) and if the Internet was everywhere and the pipes fast enough i would happily put all my movies and music on-line and access them through my laptop or something smaller
Maybe Thomas Watson's quote about there only being a market for 5 computers isn't so far off the ball.
If moving CPU cycles and storage on-line to big company's (compare how fast it takes to search all your emails in gmail and Microsoft outlook, and how much space is available and backed up), then i can see the demand for new, faster PCs for a lot of people to decline.
When that starts to happen, who needs the newest and latest OS, or even a PC anymore when you can do it on your WiMax enabled pda and opera.
Things like Ajax only help move this data off the PC on-line and reduce the need for both a OS and PC
Something like these would be prefect for the Underground, where power failures leave you completly in the dark and happen fairly offen (normally for only a few seconds)
If you work an extra 4 hours a week, but safe $100 and 5-10 hours a week on travel. Plus get to see your family during the day, cook yourself a decent meal at lunch time and be in a more relaxed atmosphere, do you still class that as a pay cut?
its a Bribery made to a dj in exchange for promotion of an album or single. Derived from the words 'pay' (give money to) and 'victrola' (a record player).
Over millions of cycles things change, if they happen to be better, then we tend to keep them, if they are worse we dump them. Evolution is just a method to take 'intelligence' out of that selection, so you can think of ourselves as our creators.
Plus the extra 2 lines that 'nobody' knows what are.
This new one is nice and easy, groups go out and are coloured, periods sprial out 'continually' (which i think is one of the plus points of this one table)
I take it you were never 16 and worked in a supermarket.
but back to the point, advertisers could choose which 'mode' they are in, let people vote and if no-one is responding then pull the ad and save the money, show more ads if more people say they like it, or fuck em and show the same amount of ads no matter what they select.
I can imagine advertisers would go for this, and I reckon the public would prefer it as well. Seeing relevant ads that are informative can be a big plus, whereas seeing pointless ads is irritating

Its got loads of extensions and lots of them are actually useful, I've defiantly got room for this on my second monitor!
Things like that make it just as hard for someone to crack, but easier (for me at least) to remember

Sounds to me like a really well thought out idea.

I don't know, but I'm sure the decision is more political than anything.

using "so passe" is so je ne suis que, gay

But really, I thought that was what anonymous proxies are for, although they shouldn't be needed!
