If the climate miraculously stops changing and steadies at current levels, and even if it is so predictable that we can evacuate places before storms hit, there will still be millions of people starving because the population keeps growing and the planet and its resources doesn't. So meh to climate change. A few thousand people can live in a desert or tundra, 20 billion cannot.
Ah, but all the education and experience that he has paid for, he paid for. he doesn't pay part of his $3.99 to his old teachers and the live musical theatre dudes. The creative people want to get their background with one-off purchases and then create things that they can restrict the use of.
Car analogy time: i buy several cars and dismantle them, then use the knowledge to design my own cars. When someone buys a car from me and duplicates it in whole or in part, I scream and cry about teh evil napster carsharers.
Well, why not have the legal people who are currently paid to think up new laws re-tasked to get rid of stupid laws? This would fulfill the paying-out-taxpayers-money-to-friends-and-family-of-the-government requirement at the heart of whitehall while also improving matters.
Do the people who currently carry guns in public places, such as police/security/bodyguards for our lords and masters, undergo regular (6-month maximum) psychological tests? They are also de-facto exempt from speed limits so maybe another psych test is in order to prevent them crashing into civilians as often.
The law is all to cock. Can't have a gun unless it is my job to protect government, but can have flammable gas pipeline into my house. Can't drive over the speed limit down a road I travel everyday for 30 years, but 19 year old cop new to the area can. Can't get gypsy camp moved on, but anti-war protest camp can be evicted. Can't remain silent or withhold evidence under police interrogation, but government can 'forget' details or bury things that are 'not in the public interest'. Maybe a new law to outlaw double standards?
'Identify free thinkers and malcontents' more like. Although I fail to see how a british government and rail infrastructure will organise the cattle cars to take us to the british equivalent of the god-forsaken fly-blown taiga (Norwich).
I, for one, will not submit any complaints about the laws but will continue to pay cash for my tinfoil millinery.
I hope that those assholes spend plenty of money developing the PS4 and even more marketing it to me. It makes it sweeter when i tell their salesdroids that although I would be delighted to purchase, the rootkit and DRM on my finances will not allow me to buy Sony products.
I will concede that you have way more experience and knowledge about working for HP.
What processor and motherboard combination did you find for your old 75MHz Toshiba laptops? Your suggestion seems to get you an identical motherboard, whereas we are talking about upgrading the CPU.
I googled around and found a video of someone dismantling a DV8000. Well, whaddaya know, I was right, there are no 3.5" drive bays. Thanks for playing.
Indeed I had not come across MXM, I assume this is because it is a relatively rare beast
Oy vey. Ok, I will feed the troll. I have upgraded the cpu in many machines, often I needed to replace the motherboard in order to work with the new cpu. Good luck getting another motherboard that will fit in your netbook.
2.5" apples and 3.5" oranges. I had a laptop that had a 3.5" hard drive bay, but it was a 286. I seriously doubt any laptop has space for a couple of 3.5" hard drives, let alone a couple of 5.25" drive bays.
I recently upgraded my video card. The card, with all its cooling fins, is easily a third of the volume of a netbook. The laptop video cards must be either less powerful or using magical elves to cool them.
It would be an interesting thing to check whether the 'stop all networking over cellular' means 'stop all _user_ networking over cellular'. Has anyone modded an iphone to fit it with an on/off switch?

Don't even attempt Hardy. Ass-numbingly dull to read.

Ah, gee, I never was any good at greek. The only word i recognise is occaecat (the ancient greek for Longcat).
On behalf of the government department concerned, I thank Mr Tottles for his cooperation.

Curse you, mod point allocation bot! I need to mod parent 'eye-opening if, like me, you never considered how much work goes into a distro'.

Bah! The weapons developers are no better than those Jews whose government invaded poland.
I really hope any other replies skip the graphic detail of their imaginings.
Have you *seen* the kids on my lawn? That stupid future is getting here real fast.
This is good news (everyone), by the time you have torrented your bluray rip, it will be out of copyright.
Or not.
What? Big hidef screens are no longer cool? I am still on crt here, so maybe i can get a big screen cheap. Cool!
I hate adverts. If I am going to be annoyed by adverts it is better to be annoyed by adverts from people within punching range.
Killing a bunch of RIAA execs would be cool and public and lend the russian mafia worldwide public support. Fuck yeah!

They could shut off traffic lights completely and save everyone the time spent waiting at them, also the electricity and maintenance costs.
Bad example. Many people know in their hearts that there _is_ a Flying Spaghetti Monster.

Why would you be there at all? Robots will have replaced humans in the future.

Round here, you could replace the General Practitioner with a similar app that sent you to the hospital.
