"How many elderly South Koreans does it take to change an organic light-emitting diode?" Elderly South Koreans are organic light-emitting diodes - so it takes two of them. The day-shift one unplugs and goes home at 6 o'clock in the evening, the night-shift one plugs-in until 6 o'clock the following morning. Very economical - they even share the same walking stick.
Forgot to include the answer to your question and forgot to use the preview button. Does it come in green ? Nope ! It comes in yellow, with slanted eyes and most models have walking sticks.
"Attention asshats -- I'm not a commercial entity. That's why I registered the.org. Am I the only person following the guidelines on this sort of thing?"
The short answer to your question is, I'm sorry to say, "very probably!".
Yes there is - just keep typing and counting as you go. When it will not produce the word you type, you're going to know how many were left. Careful though, if the word doesn't appear on the screen, you might want to consider a hardware problem - the keyboard for example. If the word doesn't get printed you may need to check the printer ink level.
"russians have recently finished electrocuting the entire 11.000 kilometers of their Transsiberian Line"
I hope that "electrifying" is the word needed here. I've made the trip and I wouldn't like to see it get "electrocuted".
I'd be interested in the details, if you have any references. Especially details concerning how they keep the electrified line running in the winter cold
"Perhaps" was as far as I wanted to go - my feeling is that limits are required if you're dealing with other people's ideas. Didn't (and don't) want to disagree with anybody - just express my thought - if possible quietly.
Since this is Slashdot however, we do have the "because you can" syndrome. So, "because I can", I'll come down with my firm opinion about something - no perhaps.
Nobody, my cheerful old sir, should watch more television - it is bad for the health (mental and physical).
But there, of course, you have but my opinion.
As for your more obscure sci-fi reference, I have a question. Is this security through obscurity ? Don't know the reference, sorry. My daughter went to a "jammy party" not long ago. Is this what you're talking about ? She told me that they watched sci-fi films, but it was more a question of "proton jammers" if I have understood correctly. Don't know. Don't really see what this has to do with the Seventh Fleet. Unless, of course, they're sailing around the Pacific in their pyjamas ? This is "perhaps" a possibility - but I don't think we should consider it (if we can avoid it, that is).
They can afford to do this - the Indians actually export chairs. No single person could bring about a shortage of chairs in India - even by throwing them day and night.
He is at that - and He lives in Mexico City. It is not generally known but, apart from the gold ring round his head, He also has a blue one - but not round His head.
I don't want to seem insincere here, but I really liked this bit
"The author was insuccessful in spelling "successful"."
How are we to measure success (or the lack thereof) in this context (or is it a contest?) ? How are we to make a comparison between 2 dumbasses ? Their relative success in the speciality must be remarked ! What is the correct plural form of "dumbass" ? The need of a plural form is a worry !
Oh s**t, never mind !
There really isn't any answer to your post. You've said it all. Perhaps the US might give away such equipment ; they would thus render the nuclear bomb obsolete and world peace closer. Perhaps you should stop watching "Star Trek". Perhaps you should get out more. I just don't know.
I think that your post implies that "In South Korea, where only old people have the time for this kind of thing, they can't do it because of the cost of the electricity !" Perhaps they might try if they had a generator which ran on fish oil. Donations anyone ?
Agreed ! And don't forget the exceptional twisters, hurricanes etc. The message that falls on your head is the one that makes you think ! Perhaps George Bush should get out more ?

Specifically, OLED's are made from elderly South Koreans. Furthermore, the idea originated in Soviet Russia - so there !
I noticed this bit, and it gained my sympathy:
The short answer to your question is, I'm sorry to say, "very probably!".Hey thanks. Your post gives me the information I've been looking for. (Et je ne parle pas français toujours.)

Depends on the pay, but what's not to like.
I noticed this bit and was amazed:

Fries with that ?
May I join you ? Perhaps there should be an official song of welcome ? I agree that it was imperative ..... absolutely imperative.
But we are quite certain that the moon is made of green cheese. We are, aren't we ?
My thought exactly. I wasn't going to write it though; I was afraid that, as a European, I might be thought boorish.
I thought so. But independent confirmation is always good to have. Thank you, NASA.
Since the sun has risen in the east and set in the west every day for a long, long time, I have every hope that the same thing will happen tomorrow.
Only old people go to the Linux Labs website. And only after lunch on Sundays (before their nap).

Because he tortures them before breakfast , of course, - to work up an appetite. After breakfast he kicks puppies to keep up his physical condition.
