I hate those stupid ads! Every time I run across them, I'm compelled to fish through the source to find what annoying website is making them and I block it.
I always liked the idea of hydrogen in a tank being a battery. It's hard to throttle wind and solar up and down to the amount of power needed but if you just had them running (safely) at whatever speed was possible due to current conditions, they could be crackin' water into fuel....but that's one of things that gets mentioned every time without much mention of any similar systems having been built or being built or even being proposed seriously so there's obviously some major issues along the lines of needing $40 per gallon of gas to be competitive.
Small article and clip of local news coverage on it (might want to turn the sound down, some dope cranked it way up for the video). http://reason.com/blog/2008/12/06/gotcha
So if it's suddenly ok to eat this artificial meat, what new species might we get to fry, skewer, bake, broil, brown, saute, stuff, and/or grind into a patty?
It's the consequence of giving anyone the position to make announcements and proclamations. Even without the government, night news would still be on at 6 to tell you that something IN YOUR HOME or AT SCHOOL or ON THE JOB can kill you!!!
Thank, sir. I tried a clean install and it's working perfectly. I know, I know. Upgrading instead of clean installs is prone to trouble but it was pretty convenient for more than several updates.
I was thinking more along the lines that Google puts up a notice saying some results are not shown because they are complying with local laws. That's probably not the exact language but I think it's close.
Are they stating on said search results that they have filtered the results due to Chinese laws?
I mean, they can be only so subtle about it before China decides to block it entirely but at least MS could dangle that bit of info there for any one curious to wonder "Hey, now what law is that and why is it enforced?"
I've been using Opera for most everything and Firefox for when websites throw a hissyfit at the big O but after upgrading to 10, I was ready to go FF full time. I don't know what they did but going from 9 to 10 added some serious performance issues when opening a new tab or loading page. I'm talking half a dozen seconds of CPU going full throttle and Opera being frozen for the entire duration for just clicking on a link.
Thankfully, I was able to get and install 9.6. Oh, sweet, sweet mouse gestures. I missed you.
Magnatune works pretty close to this. Want to download an album? You can choose to pay between $5 and $18 or listen to it at 128kbps on the site (with occasional adverts on the end of songs).
Reminds me of the various shop class safety videos. After watching a guy get a metal sliver pulled out of his eye with an electromagnet, fuck yeah, I'm wearing safety glasses.

If he doesn't care about the bozos, then "unfriending" is exactly what should happen.

Meh. The planet will be fine. It would be fine if we nuked every square inch.
Humanity and all the ecosystems and weather patterns we depend on... well, fucked would be an understatement.
The point of charging for the cars is so that the people using them won't overlook flaws under the train of thought "Hey, it was free."

Dolphin? Polar bear? Tiger? Elephant? Chimpanzee? Gorilla? Human?
Why would you leave out names of companies who pulls this kind of shit?
It might be a bad apple but give potential buyers an idea what to look out for should they be in the market for similar products.

Make sure you have proof.
Photograph it and put on your facebook.

Being my foe doesn't make you my mortal enemy. It just means your comments need to be exceptionally good for me to end up seeing them.

Now I gotta write about it on my Deadjournal after I cut myself!
As noted by the AC, perhaps all the previous administration knew was that they were sending money. :P

What version of Opera are you using?

New Slashdot meme creating a buzz? Tonight at 11.
What, you mean, MS prevent programs from being installed or even piggybacking on other installs?
I don't know of anyone who'd be against that except the sales/marketing assholes of the world.
But that's ok. You seem to have a straight head judging from your sig.

I hearby copyright and/or trademark the word "Bitterrorism".
Yeah but... look at all the shit put out by Murdock's News Corp. I'd gladly keep funding NPR, thank you very much.
