I read the rather more sinister implication into the statement that he would have been permanently "disappeared".
When it comes to leaks, it's all a matter of perspective, one that Yes Minister got down pat: "That's another of those irregular verbs, isn't it? I give confidential press briefings; you leak; he's being charged under section 2A of the Official Secrets Act."
"Kickdrum" tends towards a pure, sinewave tone at 40hz, 0.429s in length. "Offbeat high-hat" tends towards white noise, 0.429s in length. Tune length: tends towards infinity.
Exactly my point - RP is not regional. The raison d'etre of RP was to strip out the regional cues that gave away where someone grew up.
There's more to the South than the west country and London. Huge swathes of the south east, such as the home counties, have had their regional accents replaced by RP.
I just *love* the way you yanks think your regional accent is unaccented - it's so precious!
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Received_Pronunciation is probably the closest thing to an unaccented form of English, even if it has almost killed off most of the original regional accents in the south of England.
It also looked like that was only necessary for 3D - it looks like a purely 2D version could be made much smaller, given it'll consist of the gel, a fixed light source, and a camera.
But everyone on slashdot seems to think that the word of scientist is the word of God almighty himself, rather than actually taking the time to look at the situation critically.
Because the files I receive from other people are in Rar format, I need to decompress them, and my power to dominate their puny, weak minds with my glowing neon brain-waves, and force them to resend it as a.tar.xz only works in person?
You're assuming the goal is wealth, rather than merely independence from the golden chains of wage slavery. For some people, there *is* such a thing as enough money.
I'd have thought striving to be independently wealthy would be an admirable goal - it's a lot easier to be a philanthropist when you don't have to worry about the roof over your head and where your next meal is coming from.

Now *that* sounds like my sort of come-on! Wouldn't want a prospective dominatrix to be ill prepared!

'Had SureView been on Bradley Manning's machine, no one would know who Bradley Manning is today,'
They say that like it's a good thing...
Pure essence of techno, of course!

The shitness of dubstep perfectly complements the awfulness of MLP.

I did this in Civilisation - 0% tax, and whenever I ran low on money I hex edited my save file. Made it to Alpha Centauri in no time!

It's not provably unknowable, it's axiomatically unknowable - a subtle but important difference.

Or drop the american crap, and get 67 US combined urban/highway MPG from an equally safe, small VW polo. Highway MPG is likely ~85 US.
We have those, too. It's just they bare little relationship to reality.
And the same private encryption keys... oh wait.
Or you could just have moved oop north...

What, they're both made up nonsense?
Because the line rental for a hardline is more than the ongoing costs of maintaining a 3G connection?

You can't make cheese from pure human milk, the protein make up's wrong.
The UK's a republic now?!

They're not, they're meant to subsist off the glory of having their name plastered across codebases world-wide. It's all about the egos, baby!
A natural consequence of their freedom. A benevolent dictator's still a dictator, and in this case benevolence goes against true freedom.
