I guess apple wants to leave the leaking memory like a sieve to their apps only. Safari is a very good example of that. Personally, I don't have any problem with Apple putting restrictions on what can go in their store. It's their store, after all. What I do have a problem with is that short of jailbreaking that the iTunes store is the only way you can get apps on it.
Just a FYI, you can turn on previews in TinyURL. I do it myself in case someone tries to slip in a tubgirl or anything like that. Can do so here: http://tinyurl.com/preview.php I do agree it's used far too much for no good reason though.
Using post cards was a poor choice in comparison. The USPS can and does inspect mail, the privacy you expect is the idea that you sure hope no one opens your envelope. Which is pretty much exactly the same as sending anything over the internet, you package something up, send it off for delivery, and ultimately in the middle you have little to know what's going on while in transit.
Don't get me wrong, I agree with what you're going after, just the choice was a poor choice of comparison.
One run. But that was to "clean out" the carbon fining bag. The only thing I don't particularly like about it is it does take some time, but I suppose that's just the impatient part of me wanting it to spit out water 2 minutes ago:) Did you give it a good scrubbing before you used it? Of course, like I said, the house has a water softener, so that may have impacted the performance for the better. The distiller in my dad's case is just a "finishing polish" type deal, it doesn't have to do quite as much as a distiller would in a softener-free house. There is a difference between the tap water and the distilled water, but there was a larger difference between pre-softener and post-softener water as well.
What distiller did you use? My dad uses the 8800 from waterwise and I haven't had that issue. The house also have a water softener for the entire house, so the crud in the bottom is at a minimum. The only real residue left in the "boil chamber" is some of the salt from the softener. There are salt-free softeners of course, but not this one. We had to get the distiller originally because my mom had to watch her sodium intake during her cancer treatment. There are some things a water softener doesn't get out that the distiller takes care of. The water softener definitely helps for laundry, dishes, and showers too.
I predict that within 20 years you will need a license to have sex.
In some ways, I'd support this. It would help with population control, and hopefully would require both people to have an IQ higher than their shoe size.
I'm guessing you've never been around the vast majority of the cell phone users in a restaurant. Roughly 95% of them apparently have hearing problems, because they feel the need to shout to the person they're talking to about what they're eating. And ring tones... God damn ring tones... It's a fucking phone, it should ring, not play the latest pop-music crap.
The thing that's amusing about this is that since the USPTO didn't toss this patent out for prior art, their own patent electronic-filing system is going to be severely hindered. For registered patent filers, the authentication is done in a java applet. Is the only "saving grace" that it's not some graphical media type thing? I'd also argue that if you click a link to go to a page, that constitutes activating any content that's on it.
Completely offtopic, but with the whole "u-spelling" of many words, I'd say its use is inappropriate if you look at the etymology of the words. For instance, look at favor. "Middle English, friendly regard, attractiveness, from Old French favor friendly regard, from Latin, from favEre to be favorable." It might be because I took Latin as my language in school, but I generally consider words closer to the original form to be the correct spelling. Might also be because I don't like wasting things, even letters:P Which is also why I liked Latin, if you saw a letter, you pronounced it, none of this "silent letter" crap.
If you hold monopoly status in the market (which is what AMD is alledging) then making a deal that locks potential competitors out of the market violates antitrust rules.
The only problem with that statement is that since AMD is just alledging it, until the court rules that you are a monopoly, you are not violating antitrust laws.
Fortunately like someone else mentioned, it doesn't do any checking. My name to them is "fuck you." and i live at "123 fuck you latimes st." I was born in 1902, and my phone is 111-111-1111. I set up a spamtrap subdomain for sites that require registration, and I just send them to trash. It used to be great when they just wanted an email address and did no checking, I'd use webmaster@their-domain.com.
On the other hand, wandering the public internet is akin to strolling in the park or mall, where one would not expect privacy to be guaranteed... and the officers of the Ministry of Love happily exploit that expectation.
The problem with this statement is that not all activity on the internet is like strolling in the park or mall. Many times activity on the internet is exactly like a phone call, a communicatin between friends/colleagues/etc. For instance, email or instant messaging. If you post something on a forum such as slashdot, however, in that case it's in the public.
Unless they changed things, a p indicates it'll be PalmOS. They released the 700w which of course runs windows, and there have been rumors of a 700p running PalmOS coming 6 months later. And, the rumbling I've heard about a 750 is mentioning only PalmOS.
Always rounding up, which is what US kids are taught in school, will eventually create a bias and throw the aggregates off.
Maybe it's changed, or maybe my county was just different, but that's not what I was taught. It was if it's less than.5, round down. If it's.5 or more, round up.
From the spam I get, the majority comes from APNIC. Granted, the spam may originate in the US, but if they're connecting from an open relay in an APNIC (which seems to be the biggest source for me) range, cutting it off at this point will help. The two I see the most from are APNIC and RIPE. Also I've noticed that APNIC is also the source of the biggest amount of SSH break-in attempts. Naturally access to SSH is only allowed from trusted addresses, but firewall logs can be a scary read. Within 6 months, out of roughly 250K connect attempts, only about 2K were from sources outside APNIC. This is from a rather visible server (in the sense it's connected to places where many people can see it, but very heavily firewalled)

Because speed limits have long ago ceased having anything to do with safety and become only revenue generators.

Where's the pedant mod when you need it... And it's cannulas anyway.
If there were, comments should be auto-moded it when they're posted until proven otherwise.

Agreed. I was mainly just picking nits. It seems big company and good decisions/judgements seem to be mutually exclusive :P

Not true. You can't sign away your rights. You can't for example sign yourself into slavery. Unfortunately.
Unless of course you join the army.

Until next Tuesday.
