If you're running AV then the fraction of expense committed to defense has to be at least 50% of your desktop IT spend because that's how much of a PC's capacity modern AV takes - even though it doesn't work.
Modern? If your antivirus software uses 50% of your PC's system resources, then I'm going out on a limb to guess that either your antivirus software or your PC (or both) are not exactly modern.
TFA mentions that a "classic" snowflake only occurs about once every 1000 flakes. Here in the Rockies, I have observed that many snowstorms produce no noticeable "classic" snowflakes, while in other snowstorms, nearly every flake that falls is a "classic" snowflake.
Can you, Mr. Cloud Physicist, enlighten us on this?
...there's really no way to go forward and get what we want without either a lot of North or South Korean blood on our hands.
We could stop sending food aid to increase pressure, but the innocent people in NK will starve.
I don't think there's any blood on our hands if we stop feeding them. We can't own their crap. That belongs squarely on them.
If you buy an unlocked phone for T-Mobile, best make sure it uses both the 1700Mhz and 2100Mhz bands. Otherwise, you'll be limited to 2G speeds.
GSMArena's phone finder tool can help you find handsets that meet this criteria.
Um, actually, by most accounts he IS a pedophile. RTFS. He expressed physical intimacy to the victim family's 4-year-old son. They called the cops on his pedo ass, and his continued acts were in retaliation.
I assure you it is far, far from normal for a grown man to go around planting smooches on 4-year-old boys.
If ever anyone was unsure that the 3DS would be fully cracked for flash cartridges etc., the existence of this game should make it absolutely sure that will happen.
I can't believe nobody has mentioned this yet. What the heck happens when one of your [kids, douchey semi-friends, drunken evil twins, etc.] drops and breaks one of these controllers?
If you ask me, these controllers look like a VERY bad idea, if only for this reason. I'd imagine the controllers alone are going to be $100 a pop. I don't think I'll be buying this, if only to prevent assault charges on myself when I rage after one inevitably gets broken by somebody being careless.
Quirky non-conformity is NOT the same as social retardation.
From the way I see it, most "non-conformists" conform quite well to their smaller, alternative cliques.
Just because you telecommute doesn't mean you can suddenly take your kids out of day care. Unless you aren't actually working, or aren't actually supervising your kids.
Funny how the party that sells themselves as adhering to the constitution always seems to be the ones that do everything possible outside the bounds of the constitution...
That Google would need to set up a sting makes one wonder if they are not a little insecure about their engine. In the past week I have run into a couple of situations where Google absolutely failed.
Try searching Google for "Martin Guitars" or "Jet City Amps". The official sites aren't even on the first page of results on Google. On Bing? They're both the first result.
I hate Microsoft as much as they deserve (which is a lot) but whenever I am unimpressed with Google, I try Bing and am getting more and more impressed with it. I can't blame them for using their competition to their advantage.
I was glad to see this time around that the Diebold machines did a great job of allowing me to quadruple-check my vote, AND created a paper trail right before my eyes.
Looks like they finally got it right, at least in my precinct.
This is NOT a myth! I spent some time in Central America, and I had a friend who was having issues with one of his ears. After some failed attempts at medicating, a doctor took a closer look... and pulled a small cockroach out of his ear canal.

No. That Intel Bay Trail chip is part of the Atom family, intended for tablets and super-portable computers that require low power consumption.
Uh, no. The word you were looking for is FLAIR.

This. Some people have to go open their big fat mouths about everything.

The same crowd that thinks phone calls are obsolete.
Are you calling Mr. T a giant African rat?

If she was Miss America, THEN it would be safe to assume. Miss USA? Naaaah.

It's not funny. It's sickening.
No, I'm not a troll. I had Google SafeSearch turned on to the Strict setting. I turned it off and got the expected results.
Try turning it on then repeat the searches. You'll get the same result as I previously did.
So maybe Google's search engine is fine, but their SafeSearch is broken. Either way, it's a fail.

They need to release an updated graphics package for Adventure. I can't wait to play this game as a high definition square block.
Someone was working on a very promising Quake 3 mod to do just this:

Looks like you can download the map, but not the unfinished mod.

You might be a redneck if you've ever had sex in a satellite dish.
There once was a man from Angola
Who contracted a case of Ebola.
He puked out his guts,
Not excluding his nuts,
Then died as he cried out, "Ricola!"

Mod parent up. I was going to mention this but he beat me to it. Nullsoft beep + your PC = instant Hollywood computing.
