I disagree. If the ISP can get a certificate signed by the CA for www.chase.com, then we need a new CA that won't just hand out certificates to anyone that asks for them. Other than that, there's no way your ISP can get a certificate that your browser will identify as valid for the domain chase.com.
I think it can basically be summarised as "Continent discovered, people moved there, had a civil war, present date". Not including global events like the wars, obviously.
How does loading part of a page consume more bandwidth than loading the entire page again with different content? I have to read my mail somehow, you know, it's not like I see the login page and leave satisfied.
Hmm, in Greece people would probably have double-parked there:P. Maybe it's the fact that marketing for the smart here doesn't advocate this, so I have never seen anyone actually park sideways. I did try it once with a friend's car though, it fit although it rode the curb a bit (there was an unused garage there). So, I don't have hands-on experience with this, which is something I should have mentioned, but I didn't think it was commonplace anywhere:)
No, I live in Greece:P Streets are wide enough, and the average car's width isn't that much less than 2m (i.e. my car doesn't stick out when I park it). Obviously, if someones parks their smart sideways in a road so narrow that the 50 cm seems to cut the road in half, they're a jerk, but for the average road width I have found that it doesn't matter that much...
What are you talking about? Are you seriously comparing the 2.5m (98 inches, wikipedia says) of a smart car to two cars? My car is 2m (6 ft?) which means that a smart car parked sideways next to me will protrude about as much as a bad driver parks. Sure, it's not negligbly longer, but most streets are wide enough to accomodate this. Not that I see anyone doing it anyway, since the car is so short it can park anywhere.
So your argument is "we have a user-friendly OS, now make something else?" I didn't select the OS based on user-friendliness, that was just a nice perk (and no, neither do most people, Ubuntu is arguably more user friendly in the sense that I've installed it for 60 year old women and got fewer questions than for their windows installs, but people still use windows because it's more widespread and more programs run on it). Damn that parenthesised sentence was long.
Not only that, but the title says "Female astronaut sets space record", and then the record is "longest single spaceflight by a woman". How exactly could a man have set this record?
Dude, I was looking for that. I seem to remember it was in xkcd but I didn't find it (plus I totally coined this before the xkcd guy). Do you have the link?
Man, how stupid were they... The smallest thing packed for a few days today contains a baggie of silicagel, couldn't they just have packed a few of those in the car? Ingenious!
In Greece, where I live, all network operators I know of offer their phones unlocked. I have used some 40 phones over the years and none of them were locked.
I don't know, I downloaded it a few minutes ago, ran it, clicked on the + toolbar button and it crashed. Promptly uninstalled. I don't know where they got the idea of being like 2x faster than Opera in page rendering, I could see the pages render as I resized them... Sure, my machine's old, but Opera doesn't do that.

I don't know, that sounds like one of those statements that come back to bite you in the ass

Nikola Tesla had an older brother who died, he said that his brother was the brains in the family.

Combine with rule #2, everything is classified until it has been declassified.

You should RTFM, this is clearly stated in section 2.1, "Black hole event horizon formation"!

Look at it crash into a wall at 70 mph: http://youtube.com/watch?v=wXnW_Me-w5w
They just opened the door afterwards. Though, I don't think a person inside it would be as lucky.

Wait, you're on Slashdot and you say you read BSD and understood BSoD? You must be new here...

Especially when the amount of power you need to sustain that acceleration isn't constant.

4.3 ml/yr.
Sometimes I just like to answer rhetorical questions.
Nah, it's just that some people wanted to say the same stuff/ask the same question/see the answer to it.

Based on your data, they should just release Firefox 6000, then the browser wars would be over.
So the idea is to make the new kilogram weigh this sphere?
Not only that, but they're all but useless. I use Opera, which doesn't support them, and my user experience has never deteriorated because of this.
Dude, what'd you have?
