As long as it's paired up either {fe,}males or {wo,}men, does it matter? They're calling dudes "males". And for most people, the terms are interchangeable.
That's a function of which hole, though. I'd say one car's exhaust pipe is not the same as another car's exhaust pipe, even if they're the same model and everything.
I subscribe to Morgenbladet and I'm trying out some subscriptions on a kindle now after having pushed a lot of articles to it via readability or instapaper. Figured if I push a lot of their articles, might as well subscribe—they're not as expensive as daily newspapers and I guess a little fiscal stimulus doesn't hurt.
The news (and opinions) I'm willing to pay for don't seem to come out on a daily basis.
at first I thought IU meant "International Units", like SI units (International System units) and MU meant Medieval Units... I'm not sure your abbreviations are very good.
The problem with Rjukan isn't so much the seasons as the fact that it's in the bottom of a steep valley. So part of the day the sun is shining on one mountainside, then a short period where sunshine reaches the town, and then the other mountainside gets sun. Having a similar town near the equator could be better or worse, depending on the axis of the valley.
I think american miles fall short---I prefer the Norwegian miles, defined as 10km. They're based on an older unit of measurement called a "rest", which was the same as 1mi back in those days, almost 10km. It was called a rest because 1re (1mi, 10km) was the distance people would walk before taking a rest.
There is no real relationship between whether a piece of software has the source available, whether it is easy to use, and whether it is reliable. There is no sane reason to try to lump all these things together. Yet it seems to me that that's an answer to the question. (That is, it's something you could say to someone who says "floss is difficult to use/buggy".)
As for the question being deserving of ridicule, I disagree. There are people who say those things, and people who would like to convince them otherwise so they'll hop on the floss bandwagon as well, but don't know what to say.
Hrm. There are probably some people out there who would try the Invisible Man approach: Find a girl's school, pretend you're the Holy Spirit, and let them all have a shot at being the next mother of Jesus.

Nonsense. "lol", especially in sans-serif typefaces, is a bird's-eye view of a stick figure zombie. It has nothing to do with laughing.

You can do both. When you start editing a formula, a toolbox and a text area appear. When you click something in the toolbox, the text area changes accordingly. Click the square root symbol and you get "sqrt ?" in the text area. It's nice, you learn the syntax easily and can resort to clicking for symbols when you don't know the word for something.

So which level of the Capability Immaturity Model would you expect them to be at? The description seems to predict a CIMM rating of -1.
So, what, you'd have four options: {man,woman,boy,girl}?

Actually, lol might become a sort of punctuation mark itself: http://typophile.com/node/16343 (This one gets it across nicely.)
How is not buying stuff at a place that sucks political? What next? Is me not drinking soda because I don't like the sugary flavour political? :(

Whereas if you don't buy the 'minimum package' someone or another thinks is necessary, you get counted as a pirate? :)
Now, I can't read chinese, but I get the feeling that it's asking me if I mean "tiananmen" in stead of "tianamen".
At least it's chinese google + images of tanks.
