My first visit to Akihabara was in the early 70s, my latest visit was in '97. It had changed quite a bit. Back in the 70s, I bought the first components to build a radio, then later some test equipment. Later still, went there to build my first computer (pre-Apple and TRS). My last visit, I was there to buy my first digital camera and an MD player. The area to buy tubes, circuit boards and parts had shrunk.
Yeah, in Seattle, if you're a homeless woodcarving man of the First Nations, hard of hearing, and you have a PERFECTLY LEGAL folding knife if your hand, some cop will shoot you to death within 40 SECONDS of stopping his car. Nevermind you weren't using the knife for anything other than carving and there were no citizens who were being threatened. You are sitting on the curb, some jackbooted thug with a badge pulls up, and you are dead and talking with your ancestors.
It's the houses that freeze to death? Wow, he must be from some future where we all live in living structures and skip through fields of clover, dressed in flowing robes, and have angelic smiles plastered all over our faces. WTF is he drinking and can I get a pint?
Yeah, cause if there is a list of things those damned linux users like its: free OS, free WiFi, free music, free... Damned, they will sit outside a Starbucks sometimes with an empty cup just so they get the price of a coffee from passers by.
Because the press has blamed Linux for everything...
I personally blame Linux for getting my 14 year old daughter pregnant, giving mange to my dog, the dandelion problems in my lawn, Obama's failing numbers, the death of Art Carney, the immigration problem, Starbucks coffee prices, the bikini barrista near my house being shut down by the city, the "Gulf War", and Lindsey Lohan failing a drug test.
I couldn't care less if "the press" is jumping on the "me too" wagon.
I have a project in a separate NG hosted dataspace, in Virginia. They are killing us with incompetence and their sub contractors are worse then they are. We are still trying to get things certified and they won't provide us information about their hosting. We think they have us on virtual servers that belong to another project, and the reason they don't want to tell us anything is that it would reveal they are in breach, since we are paying for dedicated servers.
Well, Sonny Jim, there was no offense meant where you took it. As for shape, shape rarely matters when replacing the feet unless the person is a bit retentive. You can always mount new round rubber feet outside of the space provided, or do what others have suggested and fashion your own feet.
You're not looking very hard. I was at the grocery store today, in the little household goods aisle right next to the super glue were these little rubber stick on feet. Fits perfectly on my Dell laptop.
Why the GP was modded troll is beyond me. This is a "huge kick in the balls". Isn't the point of QC to make it easy to detect if someone has even listened in, let alone broken anything? I'd have to say that what it means is the current implementation of QC is an epic fail. Back to the old drawing board.

I have to say, Jeffrey Morris is a twit, he got my dog pregnant, he pissed in my refrigerator, and I'm pretty sure I saw him talking to Osama Bin Laden and Mel Gibson. Jeffrey Morris smells funny, kind of like fermented horsepiss and turnips. Jeffrey Morris's girlfriend left him for quadriplegic asexual carnival freak.
Ha ha, my plan to shut down/. is practically complete!!!

Now, if you were a snowbound driver, in...let's say, Oregon. Your family is in the car, and you have to get back to your online magazine job in the Bay Area, and Google maps says to take that seasonal road through the woods...
Not to mention, memory is tricky and anyone claiming to see the "A New Hope" in the 1978 crawl is probably remembering it from the 1981 crawl or even the VHS releases. Some may even be remembering the SE in theaters. Time plays tricks. I do remember seeing the 1981 crawl and being taken by surprise. I knew that was the title, but I didn't know they were putting it in the crawl. I was home on leave from the Air Force and had taken my little brother to see it. I was distracted through the movie trying to figure out if they had changed anything else.
As an aside: I missed a showing of Star Wars at my High School. MH was a student of my High School in Japan. While they were in Japan promoting it, they stopped by the school with a print. They had a school assembly in the base theater and showed the movie. Blast!

DNF available now on Phantom consoles.
It will tell we are virtualized, but it won't tell us if they are putting other systems on our dedicated systems, or if we are on someone elses.

Screw you guys. I'm going home.
Boom.........Whooosh. The sound of the a supersonic one going over your head.
With a few minor exceptions, this review was a rehash of prior reviews.
Leaving home distillation laws aside for the moment, I'd be interested to see if the process could be used by the home distiller.
