My father once told me he was at a diner where they apparently refilled the ketchup bottles without cleaning them first.. he poured some on his plate, and a few minutes later, the surface of the ketchup was covered with bubbles from some sort of fermentation I guess.. ugh.
I've wanted one of those for a while, but I wish they didn't always print the numbers below the LEDs. It kind of takes the mystery out of it when non-techie people realize you're just adding the numbers
I can see why steroids require a prescription (my grandfather died in his 40's because he was over medicated with cortisone). But the warnings for albuterol sound pretty much like the warnings for any OTC medication, and they're considered rare side effects, only listed to cover their asses.
"Rarely, this medication has caused severe (rarely fatal), sudden worsening of breathing problems/asthma etc...".
After I got the basics down, I actually learned a lot by going to programming forums and trying to solve other people's problems. Then you can check your results against the responses from more experienced programmers. It exposes you to a lot of different uses for programming, and can give you ideas for writing your own programs. I learned enough that way to get a programming position where I work.
Women love to talk about their shoes, clothes, etc. If you mention those things, they'll want to keep talking, but I wouldn't do it if there wasn't something different or unusual about their accessories.
Asking where they got their shoes is a lot different from just saying they look good on her. Same with the purse matching comment.
You go right ahead and wait for 2 fucking hours for your 50 GB Bluray image to be copied/processed on your mechanical toaster; I'm sticking with my 1 minute with complete silence and low power consumption.
Just in case you've been wondering - this is why you are still a virgin.
Some developers are just not very good at writing documentation. They tend not to look at things from the point of view of the user. They'll omit details that are obvious to them only because they're so familiar with the code. Besides, I'm sure most programmers would always rather be coding than writing documentation, so they don't spend as much time as they should on it.
The average velocity of meteoroids entering our atmosphere is 10-70 km/second. The smaller ones that survive the trip to the Earth's surface are quickly slowed by atmospheric friction to speeds of a few hundred kilometers per hour, and so hit the Earth with no more speed than if they had been dropped from a tall building. For meteorites larger than a few hundred tons (which fortunately are quite rare), atmospheric friction has little effect on the velocity and they hit the Earth with the enormous speeds characteristic of their entry into our atmosphere.
yeah that's true... I used to do that a lot. At the right moment, you can pop the lever in or out of gear with one finger, when there's no pressure on the gears
I haven't driven any automatics newer than 1999, but they always annoy me because they either shift when I don't want them to, or they don't shift when I do want it to. I have an automatic with a sport shift or whatever they call it, but there's still a lag in the shifting that you can't anticipate. It's like when you're a passenger, and your body lurches forward with every shift. Mine works like - push forward to upshift, pull back to downshift. For some reason I can't get used to it.. it's probably just me, but I wish it had the H pattern so I could tell what gear I'm in without looking at the dash. It just doesn't feel right. I rarely use it
you'll be able to get a printrbot for $499. I'm not sure when they're going into full production. Right now they're producing units for the kickstarter backers. I ordered the plastic parts only, and will try to build one for less.

I, for one, welcome our new anonymous summary-critiquing overlord

Because the asthma inhaler has steroids
I use an albuterol inhaler, and need a prescription to get it.
It's just an option. If speaking on the phone is easier in your current situation, then that's what you do.
If the average person really does speak faster than they read, that's pretty sad. If I spoke as fast as I read, I'd sound like an auctioneer.

I agree.. I live about 20 miles south of Springfield, MA, and I think I can smell it from here.
I thought, 'This will be cool; everyone will think it's their Springfield.' And they do.'
Well, not anymore.

So... your point is that you were prematurely redundant? ;-)
Predundant?
Since when is it gay to compliment a woman?
Slashdot needs to get it. Is shit together?

Maybe the story is being told from the point of view of someone far, far, far in the future.

I was thinking the same thing. They should have gotten a proctologist to design something.
Maybe this will mean a trip to the moo
I see you need a longer extension cord

Actually, I'm taking that back. If you match revs, you can shift smoothly with little slippage.
Smooth shifting doesn't mean you're a good driver. It means you're wearing out your clutch
