Major advantage to me is that now I don't have to double check if I have the right side "up" of the connector when I connect my iPad to the charging cable. You can bitch a lot about Apple I think this is a step forward, especially for older people.
It ran correctly. The "touch" keyboard brought back memories of the ZX 81 I played with 30 years ago. I am not sure if it's much of an improvement over touch screen typing. Maybe slightly.
Don't get me wrong, I think it's a nice idea but I also think MS should've made it possible to run android apps on it, and made it somehow possible to install Linux / Android on it.
The shop were I saw it didn't make an effort to sell the Surface either. One step to the left, where the Apple stuff was located and an enthusiastic sales guy asked me if he could help me with anything
Yes, I think it's OK to go to the bathroom during commercials, or prepare some food for the same reason I think it's OK to turn a page and not read an ad or not scroll all the way down to read all ads on a web page.
Where to draw the line? No matter were it's drawn there will be always people who consider it their right to block each and every ad. Like there are people who think it's OK to have a dog barking the whole day in their backyard while they are at work, etc.
The people who have a bathroom break during each and every TV commercial are non-existent.

They need 25+C although they can handle 20C and below for short periods of time. You can keep 2, maybe 3 adults on 40x40cm. They need at least 15cm of substrate, more is better if they burrow (and makes it easier to keep 2-3 adults on 40x40). And if they burrow, yeah, harvesting is going to be not easy. As for food, I've read about someone who fed them pre-killed mice and the scorpions got much larger than most captive bred in the hobby; most captive bred are (much) smaller than wild collected in Africa.
A scorpion is not an insect but an arachnid. Also, they are nocturnal and hence don't need light; I guess you meant a heat source. They are communal if you give them enough space.
I have the book, but haven't read it yet. It has a lot of photos, which I like. Also, note that while the majority of his work is out of print (sadly) you can get ebooks at http://jackvance.com/. If you find an error in the book itself, email them and they look into the best way to fix it:-).
Subterranean press publishes some of his work in beautiful hard covers. Sadly they go out of print too fast... Well, maybe they'll consider reprinting some, now.
R.I.P. Jack Vance. Like I just wrote somewhere else: Jack Vance means to me for books what the Pixies mean to me for music.
As for movies:
"Bad Ronald was adapted to a not particularly faithful TV movie aired on ABC in 1974, as well as a French production (Méchant garçon) in 1992; this and Man in the Cage are the only works by Vance ever to be made into film."
and:
"... Twentieth Century Fox, who also hired him as a screenwriter for the Captain Video television series."

RISC OS, which has a common !System directory for modules (shared libraries). Installing an application could be as simple as drag & drop. Some applications required the !System directory to be updated, though. And, (IIRC) there could be only one version of a module in memory at a time which could cause a problem.
*sigh* there are plenty of programming languages that are not written in itself. perl is not written in Perl, but C and still Perl is a programming language. XSLT is indeed written in XML, but it's not coded in XML. It can be coded in C, Java, whatever.
XSLT is an XML *implementation*. You write the transformations (the T in XSTL) in XML... So contrary to what you implied, you *do* write the programs in XML...
What you describe is SpamAssassin. The scores are learned by feeding a lot of ham and spam and finding the right balance. Of course you can (re)train the scoring with your own ham & spam, and add your own rules, etc.

Just email the author(s) and ask for a copy for personal research. Has been working for me, so far.
Yeah, if only you could change key bindings, right?
Yeah, that worked very well for RISC OS, right? Or were you one of its users who actually believed that it was virus-free?
Moths and other night insects. Maybe have an actual peek, it might help to understand the issue a bit better.
And there's more: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_free_and_open-source_iOS_applications Instead of whining start porting, eh?
VLC for iOS can play all your movies and shows in most formats directly without conversion.

You can find the source code for the last release here:
Additionally, the latest code is always available on our git repositories.

jaja = the sound of laughter. Depending on the context it could be replaced for example with ;-) or ;-D or :-D or LOL etc.
You're paying Google with information.
examples? Thanks.

You mean colors like this Sceloporus species relaxing in my hand.?
Yes, my bad. Thanks for the correction.

Read it ages ago and enjoyed it a lot.
