OK, I'll bite. How do you access a bank site without a browser? Are you going to make everyone buy a modem again? Use a cell phone? Not trolling, just want another method that non-techie types can use. People can always call up the bank I suppose.
I understand fraudulent transactions are more of a problem in Europe/Germany because wire transfers between banks are free, unlike in the USA.
That was the first thing I thought of: "Nice Porsche...Nice house... Pothole!...STOP sign...That girl looks like the one who used to sit next to me in biology class!..BOOM!... Nice airbag."
My son-in-law just got an iPhone. He is paying for Roadrunner for the home PCs and paying for a data plan for the phones to access the same internet. This is a waste of money and I refuse to do it! Thanks for the set up.
Big sucker isn't it? The evil plot here is to make cell phones slowly morph into connected laptops so everyone has a computer that is required to have a data plan that pays out $100/mo to Verizon instead of $50/mo to Time Warner.
Agree this is not a lens flare in the usual sense and is a CCD artifact. If this were a saturated set of columns the artifact (vertical stripe) would be as bright as the central spot which it is not. If this sensor is of the interline type (not likely), then it would be termed "smear". If it is a full-frame device, then it would be an afterimage effect (image retention). Charge is stuck in traps which have a slow release time and bleeds out during the frame readout.
Lay off America's Test Kitchen! They have sufficient free stuff and they actually mention the brand names of the things they use and test unlike This Old House.
There is a theory that religions evolve over time. So ancient religions are considered more "primitive" than more recent ones. Worshiping idols is considered more backward than a monotheistic faith. Islam is the most recent of the major religions and should therefore be the least primitive and most advanced.
Of course, if you apply this idea to music or literature, you might give yourself a headache.
I tried looking for the 22000-member "Saudis in US" group and couldn't find it. There are lots of Saudi groups. Saudis with Cats has ~700 members etc. etc. Maybe my Facebook skills are lacking.
I really don't need it and a cheap dumb phone is fine for me. If I got one just for the bigger screen I am forced to have a data plan I don't want. Why should I watch videos on a tiny screen? There are actual big TVs now. Why am I paying for home Roadrunner and then paying AGAIN for net access on a phone? And then the hardware becomes obsolete in 2 years? It's just idiotic. I sometimes wonder who is paying for smart phones that kids use. If it's parents, they need to wise up. If kids are using a good chunk of their own paychecks for a phone, this is a waste. The only reason to have one is if someone at a party asks you where the best Bosnian restaurant in Stockholm is. You can whip out Google on your phone and everyone will say,"Ooooooo".
The first time this happened to me I was driving in Hawaii and the pump asked for a zip code. I didn't know what zip code they wanted: residence in NY? gas station in Hawaii? credit card billing address? Transaction was blocked until I put in the right one (billing address).
Sony is famous for their wonderful tech support especially for PC stuff. One person I remember sent their Sony laptop for repair. They erased all his data and explained that they had to lubricate the battery. Just try finding drivers to change your Sony from one version of Windows to another. My wife's Vaio looked beautiful and barely worked. I will never buy another Sony anything!
The article says Sarah is out of government. That's a big load off my mind. Now I can lump her in with other mindless celebrities like Paris Hilton and the Kardashian gaggle.
I sent a note to Rochester, NY Time Warner Roadrunner about IPV6 and they said they were going to roll out equipment this year-->>"TWC is going to be installing and using dual stack devices that can communicate with both IPv4 and
IPv6 protocols in each region.
The installation of this equipment will be happening throughout 2010-2011.
To get more information on it you can contact our Local office at 800-756-7956, and they will assist
you."--
No. The water can't get any hotter than 100C and then it boils off. At long as there is water in the pot, it will survive. Saw a demo in high school chemistry of teacher boiling water in a paper drinking cup using a Bunsen burner.
So the music is illegal, the cell phone is illegal, the lack of flight plan is illegal. Good thing this was done somewhere outside the good ole USA. I feel safer knowing this thing couldn't land on my grandchildren (not really).

It was all I could do to look at your post!

The cars are not perfect, but they are smarter than the drivers that own them.

Sorry but the greediest members can abuse the system. Evidence is the recent economic meltdown.
You mean there might be TWO of her? Arrgghh.
Sorry. I REALLY didn't mean to go there.

I term "app" just makes me cringe. I can't be the only one! It's just so... so Appily! [Apologies to http://www.appily.se/%5D
We must immediately ban all mirrors before someone downs a plane with one of these!

Sorry, but Duck tape is a brand name for a type of duct tape.
I thought it said "Microsoft Makes Crime Pay".
