Show a kid the tests where they use speeding trains to test the structural integrity of toxic waste containers - by crashing the train into the container at 100kmh and seeing it derail and blow up.
It seemed to work on me and the rest of my year 10 science class:)
I actually use an IBM Model M keyboard, I also have a few friends that also use these keyboards. It feels great is and the greatest keyboard I have ever used - however, that's probably because I've always used cheap keyboards... xD
Last night, my father and I spent an hour setting up 2 little bikes from kmart, and they were pieces of crap (made in china, no less), but my sisters didn't seem to think so when they woke up Christmas morning to find 2 pink bikes sitting infront of the tree. They believed that Santa had come that night and left 2 bikes, 2 helmets and 2 pink baskets for them. He even drank the milk and ate the cookies (but we told the little ones he actually enjoyed coke and chocolate, so they left that out). I'm sure a ton of posts like these are listed above (but it's christmas and I don't want to read them) but Santa is the personification of the work and love the older members of families around the world put in to make the little ones happy. I mean, face it, if Santa only gave gifts to good little boys and girls, I could count the number of kids receiving presents on one hand.
But we continue to lead them on by telling them Santa is real, until they turn 10, and we ruin the fantasy, as mine was, all those years ago...
However - in most foreign words, they will simply pronounce a 'v' sound in English as 'bu'.

No - like in the movie - the laws stood, but the laws were interpreted in a particular way, allowing the robots to act in a way that did not violate the laws, but from the human perspective was not wanted and therefore perceived as a violation of a law (not following a human's order).
Okay, lemme rethink, the laws weren't wrong, but they weren't right - but you can't write enough laws to cover your all bases, can you?
And up until recently, CyberSource's website didn't even render correctly in Mozilla, until I told a friend of mine on Work Experience @ CyberSource to fix it up. (his/. id 749007). He claims he proofread the document, but, well, he's not that credible.

but like everyone else has said - try using linux in a work environment with 1000+ people and working in tech support getting calls about the craziest things - icons lost on the desktop - and changing what everyone is used to to *nix.
sure its more stable, and 'efficient', but a hectic tech support team will just get more crap, and all jump out their 5/6th story windows (well, that's where the tech support was where I worked)
Slashdot Mirror
that if you add a man, subtract, divide the legs, they can multiply
so they can't be that bad at math...
I don't suppose the same technique could be used to overclock the alread overclocked Ti83+ or 83+SE?

Yeah, but Apple has more of appeal to the metrosexual than the nerd in the 21st Century.
If they're going to make it BYODKM (or whatever it is), they could've at least included PS/2 ports...
... but he's not a person.

You can also look at the calendar :)
What if someone stole your phone? Could they just go on a spending spree?
Terrorists win.
so long as they don't taste too different in my dim sims/ dumplings
at least most Australians have upgraded from Windows 95. (referring back to a comment in previous newspost about this)
This is great. Kudos to iRiver. Now, all I need to make my driving experience more enjoyable is a car and driver's license.
Yeah, but you can't stream pr0n to it can you =__=
