This has happened to me several times. There was no question as to the malicious origin of the windows, since I haven't used IE in years. Even worse, the problem was intermittent(seemed to go away then come back.) Like many other spy/mal/ad/@#%$ware, I had to google around for help on manually removing the junk, since none of my spyware scanners could find the culprit. This crap is insidious and pernicious.
I just wired up Comcast cable broadband to my home network, and I was thinking of adding a small Linux-based file server. I think Slack might be a good choice.
The reference to "rogs to the hogshead" is actually a qoute of Abe Simpson(a.k.a. "Grandpa" Simpson) from the U.S. television show The Simpsons, and appears on Slashdot whenever questions of economy or units of measurement come up, or whenever some/.'er feels like it(a.k.a. a lot.)
At least in ver1.7 it does. Go to "preferences" console in Mozilla. In the Advanced tab, under softare installation, you can set Mozilla to check for updates weekly and alert you when there are new hotness fixes or versions.
I would refer you to the section about using a line to make your signature easily distinguishable from the rest of your post, but there isn't one of those either.
Yes, Infrared lasers. All the laser tag sets I've ever seen or owned used either a red beam or an invisible infrared beam very close to the visible spectrum. That is why you can set off the sensors with remote controls. Oh by the way, did you know that modern remote controls project an infrared beam? You don't see those burning any holes in people do you?
I know that the guitar strings vibrate but the sound is nothing like my acoustic guitar.
Have you ever heard of an Acoustic/Electric guitar? That is an acoustic guitar with a pickup. You can hook it up to an amplifier, and the sound coming out of the amp will be pretty much the same as that coming out of the soundhole, just louder.
An electric guitar generates sound by the same mechanism as an acoustic - the vibration of strings induces a corresponding vibration in the body of the guitar via the bridge. The body of the guitar moves air, a.k.a makes sound waves. In the case of an electric guitar, the vibration of the strings also induces a current in the electromagnetic pickups, which is fed to an amplifier where it is translated into sound.
The reason your electric guitar sounds different than your acoustic is the same reason a mandolin sounds different than your guitar - they are shaped differently, have different densities, and are made of different materials, which affects the way sound moves through them.
Well, here in the Land of Coffee(Washington State), there is a lot in the way of competition. Not that there isn't a Starbucks every 100 yds, but in between those are also numerous "Expresso Stands" and indy cafes or competing chains like Tully's or Seattle's Best Coffee.
When someone takes, copies or distributes something of value without permission, that action is generally referred to as stealing. Even if it doesn't fit the "legal" definition, that's the way people use the English language... get over it.
Actually, the fact that I see several posts of this nature every time the topic of copyright infringement comes up on/. suggests to me that your view is not the de facto definition accepted by all English speakers.
You forgot that "Special K" is also a nickname for Ketamine, a (Schedule I or II? Can't remember.) narcotic/hallucinogen/icky evil drug popular on the black market.
Please go visit those links providing in these comments about Interplanetary Internet. You are right in that the current protocols we use for terrestrial routing would be useless for interplanetary networks. That is why new protocols (based on TCP/IP) need to be developed that take into account that big latency you mentioned and other factors such as moving nodes(satellites, probes). Surely you don't suggest that data communication is impossible on a Solar Scale(Cassini? Voyager? Mars Rover?) Interplanetary internet is most certainly not impossible, although it probably wouldn't be suitable for a round of Quake.
I know that Lsyergic Acid Diathylamide is Schedule I(Illegal, in the same token as heroin and crack) in the United States, and I would venture to guess that it is illegal to posess except for research purposes in the U.K. as well, but does anyone know if LSD is legal in any nation? The Netherlands, perhaps? I know psilocybe mushrooms are legal there, and I can't imagine that LSD is signifiacantly more dangerous than those, albeit certainly more potent.
I beleive he meant that a manned space program would lead to extraterrestial colonies, which would be a sort of insurance policy for the species should the Earth habitat be destroyed.

...Faster Than Light Gravity Gun to be unveiled Monday...in Japan.
Why, to be ridiculous of course. Isn't it maddeningly delightful? Or is it delightfully maddening?
Light has mass now? What is this world coming to ?
Why would he give him a copy of software for an American ISP(and a horrid one at that?) They are British.
What about a virus that has code which ensures it propagates itself to a certain number of other hosts before it destroys its native host?

Why port games from Linux to the X-Box when the X-Box already runs Linux?
That's right, Microsoft....today, 1% of the browser market...tomorrow..ummm........2%. Mu. Ha.

How can you dis? You got a beef with an oompaloompa?

Also note that most people don't have web access whilst driving down the freeway, and thus won't be able to get the updated predictions anyways.
Can I be an editor too? Puh-leeeaaze?

It's called an analogy. How could you be so stupid....what are you, a Pole?
