all bars in a geographic area will probably exactly represent the ratio of all bar patrons that night
... not all bars...
divided according to gender preference.
Exactly. While most will have 60%/40% (or whatever will be the gender ratio), some bars will have 99% men (plus 1% fruit flies), and a small number will be 99% women (and drop out of the system in order to keep it that way...).
They will make a fortune selling power to all those countries "phasing out" nuclear power with no plan to replace it but the underpants gnomes.
... which will work fine until those countries have built enough windmills, dams and solar arrays to no longer depend on France.
... and then France will have a problem: indeed, it buys as much electricity from abroad than it sells there. Nukes can only supply base load, and for peak France mostly relies on buying back from other countries (who are constructing storage facilities as we speak).
If the French aren't careful, they might be in a world of hurt twenty years from now...
The way OAuth2 is handled by your platform allows in principle anyone to
impersonate our application, as all that's needed is getting to know our
application ID, which can be easily obtained from the URL of the application
page. If you feel our application has been used to send spam to other users, it
has certainly not been done by our code.
So, either a spammer did indeed impersonate the application, or Facebook noticed that the applicationID sits there in the open, and anticipated this might happen eventually.
A hard problem to solve for an open-source app... (and for a closed-source app too, given enough reverse engineering time by a spammer...)
Maybe there should be a way to have "restricted" app-ids which only work in conjunction with a user login? That way, even if an app-id is pilfered, there would still be the need to have a user login in addition, who could then be blamed. It's a photo uploader, for chrissakes, so you need to log in to facebook anyways if you want to use it in a meaningful way...

This is all part of the German silly season ("Sommerloch") - a period in summer when many political institutions are on vacation
Yeah, this used to be called "saure Gurken Zeit", but for some reason this season took place a little bit early this year...
Yeah, useful for "explaining" that hair in the soup...
They're virtually unbreakable.
... until somebody steps on them. I hate those saunas without shelves for the glasses!
Dandruff, can you imagine getting eye lice or some other pest on these things?
Or eye crabs, if they used pubic hair ...
And will the whole thing be stolen every few years?
Every few years?!? Lucky you!
Even got me, and I'm an oldfag.
As a good fag, you should enjoy that picture!
I think he must have confused Switzerland with Swaziland...
Hehe, I like the one with the dogs having a threesome...
...is like trying to catch lightning in a bottle.
We really should be pushing for ways to route ALL internet traffic around china and other repressive governments.
Yeah, maybe the main international routers should be moved to neutral countries such as Switzerland or the Netherlands. But then, what if the "repressive country" convinces us to let them listen in via a monitoring port of that giant router anyways?
All the hassle and costs to move the routers out of the repressive country for ... exactly what?
Old firefox 5? I just update to firefox 5 about three days.
What! That's more than 72 hours ago! Are you crazy to still use a browser that old?
Which ones still don't work.
HTML Validator. Well, you can download it from a shady site, but addons.mozilla.org doesn't even have the FF4 version yet!
/Having/ to do a review of something you're supposed to be enjoying can turn it into work.
And that may be the primary motivation for the bogus reviews, rathern than bribery.
Are you aware that each year there are between 1.3 and 1.5 million teenage runaways in the US?
... in which case such "bail" would be useless. Or do you really think runaway kids would take all their computing and gaming gear with them?
Judge: "Kid, I order you to hand over your... XBox!!!"
Kid: "Cool! It worked! I get to keep my Wii!"
When an adult asks you "what do you own that means a lot to you", answer "my schoolbooks"...

That's why they're mostly built near large rivers...
... and preferably near borders, with the river flowing out of the country, rather than into... (Chooz, Cattenom, Fessenheim, ...)

the stupid shit people ask you to do
... as opposed to the stupid shit that you find in granny's diaper...
It's a big duh that funds are only available to research what turns on MALE monkeys.
... and female bonobos...
Seems that jello is the product they're using, too.
... as a lube?
When I pictured an ad using sex to sell jell-o,
you pig!
I pictured a jell-o fight between two attractive females.
O, what a let-down :-(
There are also monkeys around which are neither female, nor a bonobo...
