Seriously, a watch that flucuates around a minute a day isn't much. During the afternoon that means you'll by off by a couple of seconds.
Jesus Christ a minute off is hardly much for normal people. For people who MUST have the EXACT, CORRECT time, or expect overly high quality in things, I suppose it's normal.
I don't get why people think cookies are EVIL OMG MUST DIE. The worst a cookie can do is remember information. Who cares if they "track" you. That doesn't allow them to send you spam or viruses. The most it can do is remember a few (not all) websites you've been to. That's not evil.
That was strange because I was just looking up info about apostrophes yesterday. I was having trouble with possessives that end if s or z. Like if a person named Jones had a house. Is it Jones' or Jones's. It gets even harder when it's plural. Like if the family was named Jones. Would it be Jones's, Jones', or something else? What about Z's? (Yes you use the apostrophe for single letters like that)
I've always hated these theories that say time is one line, and everything must fit into everything without paradoxes. Things don't have to make sense. Anyway, I don't think that things work like TFA suggests. In my opinion, time travel is impossible. To me time is nothing. You can't change anything about time. However, I believe that there are infinite universes, with infinite variations, and to achieve time travel, you would travel to a similar universe that was at a different period in time. It would have the same effect as traveling in time, but interfering with things like killing your grandfather would not affect you.
Unfortunately my brain isn't working quite right today, so forgive me if that sounds stupid or doesn't make sense. I have explained my theory much more clearly in the past (no pun intended).
It's another case of the right tool for the right job. For example, if you're attempting to make apple juice, obviously oranges will not suit the job. If you're trying to convert a video to UMD format, it's highly likely that neither will accomplish the task.
A better analogy would be dealership A gave me a Ferrari, but I bought a VW Bug truck at dealership B. Since I paid for the VW Bug it must be better, since giving away things for free implies that it has no value.
An uncle giving you something means it's a gift, not a sale.
Also, if you had the impression that there was no difference between the two products, it would change that too. OpenOffice.org would appear to be the same as Word, but because OO.o is free, it MUST be worse...
I type very well (up to 100 WPM with no errors), and I have never used the home row position. My hands are usally around a, w, r, g, space, and k, semicolon, apostrophe, and shift. Not that my hands are always on those keys, which they hardly are.
I agree. They need to get rid of spaces so you don't have to put quotes around or or type the spaces like that. Capital letters too.
But then it's "unfriendly."
Jesus it seems like a lot of people have wrist problems while typing. I can type over 80 wpm for half an hour or more without getting even minor pains. It must be the way I have my arms and the desk positioned... I've never had problems typing.

Wow.
I've forgotten how good some coders can be after seeing so much crap.
This is of high enough quality that it could be a commercial game. Thanks [insert god here] that it's free.

I'm not quite sure but from RTFA, I think it says the the adware modifies the incoming files. They aren't spreading fake files with adware in them.
The point is that you shouldn't have to pay for things you don't want or need, just because they decided to bundle it.

I wish I had mod points. XD

How do you turn around? With that, you're limited to facing one direction. o_0
Red Faction is the first thing I thought of when I read the title...
This is all fine and dandy, but how would you search for code, like the source code for a program?
I'm using Firefox 1.0.4 and it's apparently not vulnerable because the test didn't do anything...
Best. Pun. Evar.

It's an interesting read.

This is the only funny Matrix quote I have ever seen. Congratulations on being geeky and funny at the same time!
Finding the sarcasm detector, yeah that's REAL helpful.
It's sad that people pay attention to other's personal lives, people they don't even know. And especially them.
I sometimes wonder if everybody who visits Slashdot is a geek. There are two comments here about a LOTR characters and his missing ring.
