If the third party reads it before you do, they are really the second party. Then you read it as the third party. Or wait long enough and be the fourth party.
Don't forget the two standards of measurement from the world of geography: Texas and Rhode Island.
Not so fast, cowboy. Alaska has been a bigger US possession since the 1860s. I am sure Texans would love to sell it back to Russia. Not only would they regain status as the biggest US state or territory, Sarah Palin might be available as governor.
*Any* combination of those two attributes would make for an interesting person. You ought to write a book on the people you know who make such a person seem boring.
People bought Saabs BECAUSE they were quirky

A Requiem For Saab
·
· Score: 1
Saabs were different, expensive, and European, and that was the only reason Americans bought them.
GM bought the company on the premise it could switch out the custom parts for commodity parts from the GM parts bin and reduce cost and make more money.
Of course, that meant the existing customers were disillusioned and figured if they wanted o save money, other brands did it better, or if they wanted to be ostentatious, other brands also did that better.
It's like HP or any other quirky brand. They have a niche in the market and loyal customers *because of* the quirks, and when the quirks go away, so do the quirky loyal customers. That puts them in the thick of the commodity market, competing on price and quality just like everyone else.
If they had stayed quirky, they would have kept their loyal market share. GM already had numerous brands competing (and losing) on quality and price, so buying Saab the company was the beginning of the end for Saab. Besides, it also marked them as no longer quite as European as they used to be, lowering their snob appeal.
Criminy. You trolls sure get around. You were probably blaming George W. Bush for not hiding the Grand Canyon, since its age made such a mockery of the 6000 year old Earth and thus indirectly the bible being literally true.
The story of human exploration on Earth has been one of navigation and seafaring
The story of human exploration on Earth has also been one of spreading disease and wiping out indigenous populations. Bacteria are known to survive the radiation and vacuum and cold of space quite nicely, thank you. I do not think this is a good way of looking for alien life.
As a 49 yo grandmother, a feminist, and having had a long career as a C programmer, I find that offensive. Would they have said his father couldn't see it? This is just another racist characterization of women being incompetent with technology.
As compared to your post, which is a self-characterization of an idiot incompetent with the English language even after 49 years of usage.
Turbines don't have thousands of controlled explosions every second. They don't have any. They operate in a continuous burn.
Now maybe you are confusing turbines with the pulse jet used to power the Prussian V-1 buzz bomb of WW II. But they didn't have the range to hit Siam. I suppose that's where the gyrocopter comes in.
Yah, after Airbus forgot that copper and aluminum don't bend at the same rate and had to redo a whole lot of internal design when they changed the wiring.
Plus the A380 is only a 25% increase on the current big airliners. The 747 was more than double the size of current airliners when it flew, and Boeing didn't have taxpayers to pick up the pieces if it failed. Maybe some day Airbus will get off their backside and do something revolutionary and daring, but the A380 ain't it.
The search is for weapons that might be kept on a purse or other similar closed container, whereas an open container obviously doesn't need a warrant because it is open to public view anyway.
It's for safety, not for evidence. The intent is to remove any weapons from your possession. But if they find weed, I suspect that is admissible evidence for your weed trial.
Ah... nice ideal, but the brick wall of reality makes things fuzzier. What if someone is arrested for trying to kill somebody with a knife? Seems reasonable to most people that the need to check the guy for other weapons can't wait for a search warrant.
That's part of the bigger problem, that anyone arrested should be searchable for weapons or anythong which could be dangerous to the police.
A purse can certainly hold a weapon. A wallet not so much, but still possible. A cell phone, once you've done the basic physical search, the rest ought to be off limits without a warrant.
I see your Darwin and raise you one Houston. Houston Texas had the earliest snow this year in recorded history. You would think that someone with a PHD, claiming to be qualified to write articles on climate change would know the difference between climate and weather.
You mean like climate == statistical data, ie lots of it, and weather == anecdotal data, ie cherry picked?
No point in polluting prisons with them. Just make the fines so big they have to declare bankruptcy... and make sure they can't. Make 'em live in poverty the rest of their lives.
No, they are a significant milestone in how people think of a project. You can't compare versions of different packages, but version 1.0 means *someone* thought it significant, whether that be marketing, devs, or the guy running the ouija board. For a free source unpaid project, it means the devs think things have stabilized significantly. It has no significance in relation to other projects or indeed any one not heavily involved with the project.
Do you really forget accidental child porn on your hdd for a year ? If you do "forget it there", you belong where law says you should be at. Every normal person would delete the file after opening it.
Duh.
This was accidental, according to White, and he quickly deleted the images.
Not a new low for slashdot, but still depressing that people can't even finish reading a sentence they have begun to read. Even worse, you actually read the FA to get that "forget" part of your post. Maybe you just skip randomly around.
It's bad enough that viewing child porn can throw you in prison for 20 years when most who view aren't interested in making it, which is the real crime. But even the FBI says he couldn't have accssed these pictures easily. For that we trade his tax paying job for a tax paid term in prison which will also make it hard for him to pay as much in taxes afterwards. Then there's the ridiculous cost of this investigation.
Whheeee... the modern police state, where you can be arrested for anything at any time, regardless of how stupid it is.
I would LOVE it if my Tundra were electric. All the extra battery weight would help traction in the mud and snow, and I usually use it just for getting the 1.5 miles from paved roads to home on a dirt road up a steep hill. Plus the battery weight would presumably be low, under the cabin, lowering the center of gravity. Sure range would be shorter, there would be cold weather problems. Maybe those limitations would be too much to be practical. But I'd love to have the option.
Let's see... GM lost a bundle building them and leased them below cost. They could have sold them, you know, in exchange for money, to the drivers.... or they could have junked them, at cost. One way would have made some money, the other did cost some money.
No wonder the government likes them enough to bail them out. BFF when it comes to fiscal common sense.

I wonder how many times Ted Alvin Klaudt used Ted Alvin Klaudt's foster girls without Ted Alvin Klaudt's foster girls' permission.
Tex is retired. The bean counters won.
