I can't speak for the poster you're responding to, but my sister wants a grammar checker. I haven't bothered with grammar checkers in years, so I never noticed there wasn't one in OO.
Any suggestions that don't involve "use MS Office" would be great.
I'm surprised nobody's mentioned it yet, but Star Trek computers were supposedly based on a Ternary number system - each element could be in one of three possible states.
I replaced the splash screen on my system using USplash. The documentation for building your own themes is a bit sparse, but I found a theme online I liked.
Ubuntu 8.04 uses upgraded versions of X.org, Gnome and an upgraded kernel - Xorg 7.3, kernel 2.6.24, and GNOME 2.22. It might be worth your while to try installing it, or maybe just try the live CD.
That works just fine in OpenOffice 2, under Insert->Note. I'm not sure how long it's been there - I don't use notes often - but I'm fairly certain it's been around for at least a few years.
Actually, a significant amount of the research for this robot was done by NASA at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory. I've seen demos of the 7-DOF arm they had working several years ago.
If they *really* wanted to screw up the US economy, they'd buy up tons of US bonds and then demand that congress grant them "Most Favored Nation" trade status.
add...add...add...add Sorry to be a dick, but you realize that "ad" is short for advertisement, which only has one "d" in it. In MMOGs, the term "add" is commonly used to refer to monsters that notice a nearby combat and run over to pummel the player to death.
It's not a misspelling, it's a well-thought out description.
The woes of the industrial revolution are coming back, just in time it seems, since most Americans don't seem to remember high school history class. Most Americans' knowledge of history can be summed up as follows:
George Washington chopped down a cherry tree
Abraham Lincoln ended slavery
Nazis are evil anti-Jews
George Santayana said it best: "Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it."
Actually, MSL is required to last at least 3 times as long as the Spirit & Opportunity rovers, and in the meanwhile those two are actually sucking funding away from MSL.
The group working on MSL really is hoping these things die soon.
Mandating Windows to a computer expert so they can be tracked for piracy is like mandating a Chrysler mini-van to a farmer because he beat his wife. Sure, you can carry produce to market in a mini-van, but making the farmer buy a new Chrysler mini-van to replace his perfectly functional Toyota pickup truck is absurd.
You have two giraffes. The government requires you to take harmonica lessons.
Actually, since they used a buffer overflow exploit - on a system where everything is running as root, no less - I'd consider this more of a boost to the claim that the exploits show up on poorly designed operating systems.
Going off on a tangent here, but why did Apple decide to let all the apps run with admin privileges anyway? Isn't this the same company that switched their OS to a Unix derivative a few years back?
Actually, Intel CPU's are designed in Verilog. Intel never used VHDL for it's CPUs - it used to use iHDL, an internal hardware description languange, but convereted to Verilog about 6 years ago. That explains everything!
Maybe you can find some way to benefit off of this... tell your boss you've done some 'research' and found a library that could cut down on development time.
if you substituted "Bush" for EU and "ACLU" for Microsoft, I doubt you'd even agree with your own statement. If you substitute "Cthulu" for EU and "Voldemort" for Microsoft, I doubt anyone would agree with the resultant statement.
Seriously, though, what point were you trying to get across?
I don't even use 1% of either my gmail or my yahoo account. When I first got my gmail account, I used it the way I did all my prior accounts - file the worthwhile stuff away, delete the extraneous stuff. Used space hovered around 1-2%.
I quit deleting emails about a year ago. Now I'm up to almost 6% of my storage limit.
I have McAfee installed on my laptop (Win XP OS)- I was just experimenting with turning the on-access scanning on/off yesterday. It consumes about 10-15 MB of memory while active (pretty much an instantaneous jump when de/activated). Filesystem I/O runs noticeably faster, too, but I haven't bothered to gauge how much of a difference it makes.

I heartily concur, but given the choice between a grammar checker and Vista...

Where did you get the idea that Nokia was designing Google's mobile OS? Or is Google somehow being forced to use Nokia's design specs?

My condolences to Intel's engineers.

IABCO of IA's!
ISR, IAs shorten YOU!
The original answer of 5000 is pretty close to the middle of that range, so that means that in some sense the OP was actually correct!
Funny, the only way to win is not to play at all.
The four seasons are fire, flood, earthquake, and drought.

Great idea in theory, but no matter how you try to implement it, it will go wrong the minute any humans get their hands on it.
What we really need is some form of government that doesn't allow humans any amount of control.
