So what on Earth has made you think that they will stop taking their money? It says something of internet connection termination and *not* the contract termination....
No, it will be a pilot and a pig. The pig will operate the electronics. The pilot's task will be to feed the pig and keep the fingers off the controls. Both genetically modified....
Not only a religious fundamentalism syndrome. Try A. Bierce:
IDIOT, n. A member of a large and powerful tribe whose influence in human affairs has always been dominant and controlling. The Idiot's activity is not confined to any special field of thought or action, but "pervades and regulates the whole." He has the last word in everything; his decision is unappealable. He sets the fashions and opinion of taste, dictates the limitations of speech and circumscribes conduct with a dead-line.
It has nothing to do with levels. I'm careful enough about my (terribly expensive) hi-fi. I would hear it distort, believe me.
It's the compression. We have a truely high end CD and SACD reproduction chain, Once you've heard this you'll see that the sound is crap. Total crap. Maybe comparable to a $30 el cheapo DVD player, but to call "hi-fi" anything having it in the chain is a huge overstatement.
Home stereo. Reinvented. Right.
A friend of mine brought his iPod a while ago and we hooked it up to my home stereo system.
The sound was total crap.
I would not dare to call it hi-fi.
And I cannot imagine that some cheap electronics and loudspeakers can make it sound like hi-fi. No way.
But then it might just be my amp & electrostatic loudspeakers revealing how bad it really sounds.
I would be very interested to see who sponsored this research.
Then assess the validity of the results - take nothing for granted
'cause it's a scientific study - reminds me of the old joke:
What is the difference between a diplomat and a lady?
When a diplomat says "yes", he means "maybe".
When saying "maybe", means "no".
If he says "no", he isn't a diplomat.
When a lady says "no", means "maybe".
Saying "maybe" means "yes".
If she says "yesy", she's not a lady.
Can be applied to scientific research too.
"Most of that massive speed difference is due to XML being very processor intensive, but Microsoft still handles its own XML files about 7 times faster than OpenOffice.org handles OpenDocument ODS format and uses far less memory than OpenOffice.org."
Smell a troll here? This aims toward the M$ own XML format being "more efficient" than open XML based format? And using less memory? Bet it is a 10-byte document
when opening 7x faster & using much less RAM:-)
I mean after a couple of years of development, thorough testing and bringing out the most professional cool software in the world?
Microsoft should pay the users for that information; not make them pay for beta-quality software:-(

newspell for newspeak.
The article does not state that the medicine curing stupidity was found ...
Everyone knows the final answer is 42, then why bother?
Your case is hopeless. No medicine against stupidity invented yet.
Could it be that they plan to outsource these jobs? To India?

Carving in stone seems to be the best long term solution provided the library does not get nuked.

there goes my storage with sh*tload of photon torpedoes ....
Damn Klingons.
Hardly.
with 32kB RAM!
not yet ... but they will be able soon to throw people in prisons doing slave labour to boost local economy.

Assume this sheds a new light on the ODF crap that Microsoft is trying to sell - who says that the same does not apply to their Office formats ? :-)

I bet AMD will produce the Cell chips.
