Except for us Queenslanders, we won't have our curtains fading because of you, you, you..., don't you worry about that....
"and his ghost can be heard as you past down by that...., brown paper bag?"
No Doubt you refer to the mystical attribute women claim to have: meaning the ability to multi-task. Men have that ability as well, but instead we're told we can't fucking concentrate on one thing at a time.
It never ceases to amaze me how little people seem to know about Astronomy, it must be the culmination of mankind's reasoning powers, combining a large number of academic disciplines, yet still allowing the spirit to be lifted in awe and pure delight. Sorry I've been a Stargazer all my life can't get enough of it.
vs cooperative as in pre windows 95, the apps had to be nice to each other. One single app could drag the whole box down on its arse. Ahhhhhh the memories!
How old are you, and WHO teaches you history? Bill Gates never invented ANYTHING! IBM had the PC well and truly designed when they went shopping for an OS, Bill Gates must have had a bigger run of luck that day than the rest of mankind combined, he managed to sell them an OS he bought up the road for $50.000,00 (MS never WROTE dos)
Once again, the WWW was invented in EUROPE at CERN (the worlds LARGEST particle physics laboratory). The Internet without the WWW is about as useless as tits on a bull, get you facts right!
To bad that the author didn't use a dutch spell checker; Gonungen should be Groningen, a university that has an produced impressive array of Astronomers such as Maarten Schmidt (identified the first Quasar), Bart Bok (established Siding Springs in Australia), Jan Oort (Proposed the 'Oort Cloud' of comets),All of these were tought by Jacobus Cornelius Capteyn, whole calculated the mass of the Milky Way Galaxy.
Mmmm, i saw something like this at the World Expo in Brisbane (Aus) 1988, one of the displays in the Japanese Pavilion. It was computer controlled, but used pneumatics for 'fingers'.
Yes, I think it's an 'English as first Language' thing, here in Australia you see it a lot, even amongst German teachers. I've had to 'correct' the corrections a teacher made to my daughter's homework on many an occasion. All of these related to the 'ie' 'ei' problem. She (the teacher) got really sick of it. I was raised in the Netherlands so I had to learn my fair share of langusages in my time, finally paying of (for my kids);)
The British Astronomical Journal ran a Horoscope in one of their issues years ago, quoting one from memory : "As predicted in our previous issue; Everyone born under the sign of Gemini was hit by a big truck and died."
Gratitude ? if the Dutch and French had ignored Adam's please and NOT propped up the US dollar in the first place you guys wouldn't have had a hope in hell!
Fucking Uberyank, get you facts right imbecile, you guys start to resemble Nazi Germany of the 30's more and more each day, if you didn't' invent it you steal or ignore it, No the Sun does NOT shine out of your arse.
Rot, they're selling an operating system so the onus is on them to provide their interfaces (not the code) to anyone who wishes to communicate to that system. This is the way computing USED to work They are not in a position to dictate ANYTHING, interoperability is interoperability, you can not include or preclude anyone, that's why they were taken to court in the first place!
