When the singularity collapses, I will be far away from here. In another universe, as a matter of fact. You, on the other hand, will be destroyed in every way it is possible to be destroyed-and even in some which are essentially impossible.
Or why I can dial and get perfect reception with no bars? The bars only display the signal for the frequency the phone is currently on. If, to complete the call correctly, it has to jump to another band, then it will.
If you drive from in town like I do, where the phone towers are all 1900Mhz, your phone will show the signal for 1900Mhz on the antenna display. Out where I live, the tower is 800Mhz, and there are no 1900Mhz towers in range. So, it shows 0 reception for 1900Mhz. Only when it's prompted will the phone search for the best signal.
Well, at least for my phone.
... and why would I want Microsoft to be coding my ECUs in the first place? BSOD would have to be renamed "Bad Sensor of Doom" because it would crash the first time it got something unexpected.
I thought they could monitor us regardless? Something called wiretapping? Any records the ISP holds can be subpoena'd by a court, criminal or otherwise.
Interesting tidbit that I thought I'd throw out there: Don't forget, Bell is a Crown Corporation, not a privately-owned one.
Same. I think most ISPs send these "announcements" to the ISP-based email account they created for you when you signed up. You know, the one no one uses? The one no one cares about? (The one no one reads...)
I think it's funny how Gates officially left not a week ago, and now this.. (I know, this has been in the works for a couple years now, but the timing is rather suspicious)

Clone them to a hard disk instead, or use a 100-CD USB CD-rack for storage
Hmm, OK... So I guess it's safe to say YOU won't be using Windows. ;-)
Only if you run it without the heatsink ;-)
Don't tell Gordon Freeman!

The blackbox only records T-minus 30 seconds, up to an accident where the airbags deploy. The last 30 seconds won't tell you much in this case.
In Soviet Russia, Honeypots hack YOU.
Did anyone else read "Men PAY female avatars to 'win'"???
Yep. I read 100,000 gajillion.
I was all like "O RLY???", slapped myself upside the head, and read it again.
What, isn't that supposed to be "Your momma"?
"They hope to learn how to engineer fail-safe electronics."

I, for one, welcome our new AMD overlords.
Same. I wouldn't recommend AOL to my older-neighbors-who-have-broadband-(lite) even if AOL WAS free.
I agree. eBay owns Paypal, and Google payments is in direct competition. eBay has every right to change its TOS to be able to "Cover Its Assets"

You mean before or after they send him to Guatanamo Bay?
Yeah! The police do it, so it MUST be legal!

Because who's ever heard of a PDA doubling as a mobile phone? That's crazy-talk!

> at least one segfault-every-couple-hours bug in taglib, amarok, artsdsp, jackd, libxine, or artsd
Well, I guess it's beside the point then that KDE segfaults itself on my machine, on a clean install, and without anything running?
and here I was, thinking I could get that salt off my iPod after all!
But seriously, how many credit unions are going to install sharks with fricken laser beams attached to their heads?
