How slashdotters start pointing and laughing when there's a IE exploit, doesn't matter how big or small, and always the "workaround" is looked at as unacceptable.
When it's about Firefox, they immediatly relativate it and minimalize it. "Oh, just install noscript", "tis just a small exploit", "well, why not restart your browser? If it crashes, so what? Why don't you click the icon again? You lazy bastard!"...
I even read some comments, in reply that there's said IE 7 feels better then FF 2.0, that the faults in FF are acceptable. It's a complete double standard.
For me, Firefox 2.0 is worthless; bloathed, crashes constantly, and is just not workable anymore. I've been using Firefox from the very start, but Firefox 2.0 make me switch to Opera.
Well, I for one would love to be able to google CIA records and have Google "tubing" CIA agents. It'd be like the new Xfiles series that don't suck... I can't wait...
I might like the $100 laptop project, and I may even want one myself, but I don't know if I support it so much to put down a few C notes just to show my solidarity.
Maybe to show my support, I'll get one of those magnetic bumpersticker ribbons instead.
So you "show" support. Like a pat on the back, you're willing to do that cause it doesn't take effort or resources from you (!support) but actual support is "just a bit too much". Who are you trying to appear supportive for? Your bumpersticker wont give these kids a laptop.
It's just so wrong on many levels; "I stick a sticker on somewhere to show how much I support something", when you en effect don't support anything then perhaps buying a 1$ sticker.
It's funny you should write that.
Overhere it's law that once you put your trash out on the sidewalk to be picked up, it becomes property of the city. If someone would take your trash, or search through it for things of interest it'd be considered stealing from the city.
metabolically will not let you magically burn more calories
I beg to differ.
Recently (july) I got diagnosed with hyperthyroidism. This causes to speed up metabolism significantly. You don't notice really, other then being more wired, and being able to eat constantly without gaining weight. Actually you have to to keep up with your body.
In August I got a lobectomy in the left half of my thyroid which had a swelling where my overproduction was situated. This resulted my metabolism to slow as there was significant less thyroid hormone. (My levels haven't been checked until yesterday, it could very well be production might've temporally halted as a result of the operation).
Now, take it from me; I continued to eat as I used to and I gained weight like an American in Mc Donalds.
I now have to pay close attention to what I eat and have driven up my physical activity to get back on my normal weight.
The older generations overhere still see the US as something new; during the war US soldiers brought American sigarettes, chewing gum and such to the poor farmer girls overhere. Later, music was a great influence to alot of teens and a form of rebellion and idealization.
However more and more people see through the bubble and is more cynical and even anti-American with the progress of media and easier travel and it becomes more clear how things are run overthere and what the mentality of many Americans really is. Many would think Americans are chauvenistic, rude, selfcentered, selfish and arrogant instead of "confident".
It's no utopia (you wouldn't get me to emigrate to the US), it's more an utopia in the sense it's obscured; if you're not pleased with your current life or society you idealize everything that's different and at first sight appears to be better.
Just to say, overhere we have alot of immigrants and fugitives trying to settle, with thousands a day for a country with a surface of 30,528 sq km. Guess that means utopia for alot of people as well. Even though not everyone living here feels that way. And even if you didn't really take notice of Belgium.
Lower prices means more business opportunities, which means a stronger economic outlook for those who can't afford the high barrier to entry created by the high cost to breed cattle.
More business opportunities for whom? This will discriminate against farmers who cannot afford cloning technology and cannot go under their price without loss. Once the farmers are out of business, the quality will drop as a result of lack of competition.
Now consider the US having a "cloned meat" industry, which grows steadily because of the cheap(er) meat produced. It starts exporting, destroying local markets and gaining a great market-share, yet invading and destroying the local markets... It's the same way as China produces shoes and drops them on markets around the world under-priced. Once the competition is destroyed, they raise the price again and strengthen their monopolies.
In the long run, "cloned meat" export from the US will be limited and heavily taxed, so the price will be comparable to the meat on the local market. Making the tag "cloned" a disadvantage.
I don't care what you do in the US with it, just don't bring it over here.
That's basically what "digital tv" is, with added features as "tv on demand" and "interactive tv". (DVB is a young standard here; right now I'm watching a DVB-T broadcast. It's used next to conventional ether to eventually replace it. DVB-C is encoded though, but gives the possibilities to watch any broadcast on demand.)
But then the giant corporations would lose control of how consumers/voters think.
In Belgium there's a project like that; a small community has the opportunity to film their own content and make their own tv-shows. They get unlimited broadcast possibilities in order to experiment with new forms of television and the way it's used. The concept is simular as youtube, but it's on the air.

IT and Divorce?

· Score: 1
I'm starting to wonder if there aren't also genetic bases for divorce.
Why look it so far?
Divorces are more common as people are lead to be more individual and pursuit their own individual needs more (constant unsatisfaction). Expectations are as well much higher on both sides, and either side are more easily replaced as they fill a personal need rather then perform a function.
Even assuming I could find a more bicycle friendly route, I'm sure it would take me at least 2.5 times as long to make the trip.
Overhere that wouldn't be always true; with my bike I can easily go passed trafficjams in the city. Roads leading to the centre are congested. I average 25km/h on my bycicle in the city where cars are much slower moving with drivers sitting frustrated in their cars, shouting and honking, being directed around in one-way streets where byciclists are allowed to pass in two directions (which shaves off alot of distance). I just need 10-15 minutes to bike to the trainstation, get on my train and from there walk another 5km.
The first part is faster by bike. The part I walk could be faster by car, but it gives me both some exercise and allows me to order things in my mind and prepare me for my work. On the way back it helps me to "unwind" and clear my head.
For me personally, I consider it overal gain in time and efficient use of it, as improvement of my health; can you cram a daily workout in your schedule? I cannot imagine someone going everyday to a gym after office hours, without sacrificing time usually spent for other activities. I just wake up 30mins earlier every day.
fakegirl:Soo big boy, I..
Red:You're not a girl!
fakegirl:What! Ofcourse I am!
Red:A REAL girl?
bystander:Who's a girl?
bystander:I like girls!
Red:Shut up you!
fakegirl:Yes, I am really a girl.. tee hee hee
That is amazing! I just wonder how something like that could have formed.
It looks to me as if the surface is more solid then the sand in the crater (the pattern in the middle looks like loose sand being blown around) and winds moving sand from under the edges of the crater making this jaggy outline by the underground being rendered too loos to support the surface, and having it break off.
I think you put more effort in "mastering l33tsp34k" then actually mastering doing something geeky. (you're 10 years late for it to be considered geeky.)
But maybe the parents needs to take a "Internet driver license" test
There is something simular, but the "[International|European] Computer Driver License" (ECDL) is more thought of a certification to prove or learn basic computer-usage targeted for an (non-it) professional public.
ABSOLUTELY! I couldn't agree more! ALL DATA on ALL immigrants!
That includes 99% of all Americans; The indians in the reservates will the only one's without personal data in the greasy hands of the government.
You know, I always thought this Alex Jones character was a bit "too passionate", a bit nutty. But the more time progresses the more it seems I might need to re-evaluate my oppinion.
Finally, not everyone who hates the Republicans loves the Democrats. We'd not have political parties at all if I had my way.
Isn't the US "democracy" the only one with just two parties (democrats/republicans)? Overhere we have at least 7 or 8, and our government is composed out of all those combined creating several influences representing the population, instead of this "black-white" kindof thinking the US seems to have in their political system.
Great, now we're doing intergalactic pornography. What's next?
Inter-dimensional porn?
As a second thought; how could we ever make pornography that turns aliens on? Just imagine a dog or a lizard trying to get you turned on? (or a fat chick)> What if the mechanisms of reproduction are very different as ours? Maybe they would think of us as ugly stupid mamals, mainly driven by mating instincts and obsessively seek out into the universe for mating-partners. They OR would avoid earth, or send out more probing UFO's. Eitherway, not the desired result.
