Exact font size has little to do with web standards. It's the meaning ( semantics ) that counts , not how it is interpreted.
For example <strong> is not a standard for making text appear bold , it's a standard for providing strong emphasis on the text. A visual browser may render that by showing a text as bold , while a text to speech engine could render it by speaking the text louder than the rest of the text.
For font-size , it's the difference between font-size:xx pt , and font-size:small

So if you want to impersonate a women on Twitter , now all you have to do is run this algorithm , and insure that it says you are a women , and then you have an additional method to 'prove' that you are a women.
I am happy . And i only have some of the things you mentioned.
Hapiness is just a state of mind : if you want to be happy , you can be happy , if you want to worry , you can worry.
All you need to understand is that you have control over it. Sadly most people don't see that , and just live there live chasing something that has always been right there.
So maybe they didn't die off . They realized Earth would become uninhabitable for them , so they flew away in their spaceships. One day they will come back.
No, you're not as bad as China. You still have free political speech, which is the most basic thing - thanks to it, these professors can publish materials explaining just how bad this law is, and campaign for getting it repealed. Whereas in China, no matter what goes wrong, you can't really complain.
This isn't to say that "PROTECT IP" act is not bad - it is - but limitations on political speech are infinitely worse in comparison.
The thing is , they would be able to block a website, for 'infringing activities' . How certain are you , that you are allowed to say whatever you want , without facing persecution.
Think back to when you were a kid and your parents dropped you off at the library,' explains Agger. 'In the children's section, the only "inappropriate" stuff to be found was Judy Blume's Forever, which someone's older sister had usually already checked out anyway. Similarly, Google Kids would be a sort of children's section of the Web, focused on providing high-quality results based on age.'"
Yes , i remember . Try finding a good book on programming in the kids section. All the good books about programming were in the adult section. Luckily my father usually grabbed them for me.
The problem is that the power companies themselves don't like to much green energy.
Here in Belgium , the power companies are charging more money, because they are losing money due to the fact that many people place solar collectors on the houses ( and as such use less power , causing the power company to get less money ) .
So it's based on a 'divide and conquer' technique : keep the people afraid of each other , and they leave the government alone ( and as an added bonus , the government becomes the 'protector' of all these different people, making those people believe they cannot survive without it )
I take my "absolutely can't lose stuff " in carry-on for a simple reason, the time my luggage arrived 9 months and 10 days after I did. Whenever the check-in counter person complains about my carry-on stuff, I point out that incident and they immediately shut up.
Just search for 'social snow account' , and take the first entry. Then search for 'social snow account' on that page , it contains instructions on how to find the information you seek.
I was already programming for a few years when i was 12. I remember the books on programming where in an adult section , where i wasn't allowed into yet , so my father got them for me.
I'm glad this guy also has the chance to study what he wants , rather than being denied this 'because he's too young for it' .
So, if I listen to my iPod at work, my employer needs to pay for a license for the music? That's absurd.
Actually, SABAM just assumes that you have a radio , so you have to pay. Even my hairdresser had to pay SABAM because his radio was playing.
I can think of at least two reasons why this is absured : - a trucker listening to music is no different than someone who drives a regular car. - watching and listening tax (kijk en luistergeld ) was abolished a long time ago. If there was a good reason to abolish it then , why reintroduce it now
I wouldn't be taking that as gospel - particularly with no basis - given that it stands to reason that Google wouldn't want to tarnish their name and reputation by having 'with Google' on sub-par devices. Which is an entirely logical and business-conscious reason for such a decision.
And also a good excuse for continuing with the GP mentioned. It's a kind of monopoly , no matter how you dress it.
And regarding the 'creating a bad user experience' , due to 'sub-par' devices , I'll decide that for myself , thank you very much : i don't need anyone to 'protect' me from 'bad user experience'
When they sue in smaller amounts ( which can still be a lot ) , it tends to be accepted by the judges, because they might find some compensation is needed.
By suing for such a large figure , however , every sane person knows that this doesn't make sense.
He said 'his creationist friends " . So that's not broad at all , it's only specific to that group. There's no way of knowing who they are , and what they believe in exactly , but that doesn't matter either.
And the comment on it's own "Goes off running to go show this to his creationist "friends " , is not childish . It's just a clever form of sarcasm :
It doesn't state anything bad about creationists , nor what actually happend , but it allows the reader to imagine it .
It's like a mirror : depending on your interpretation of the term 'creationist' , you will see a different image , and will react in a different way.
let the people of Libya sort this one out on their own
The people of Libya are human beings, as are we . What is worse : a dictator slaughtering his own people , or good people standing by and doing nothing to stop him ?
It's not about oil : if it were , the US would be supporting Khadaffi , because then they would be certain of the oil . The situation now , is very unclear , and so not a smart choice if oil is what you are after .

Fixed that for myself

freedom is slavery ?

breaking the law , as in 'making the law broken' ?
Talk about internet censorship : my country (Belgium) is not even mentioned in the report.
The problem is that the power companies themselves don't like to much green energy.
Here in Belgium , the power companies are charging more money, because they are losing money due to the fact that many people place solar collectors on the houses ( and as such use less power , causing the power company to get less money ) .
Just 3 examples of many. I am not sure at all why Sony gets singled out for the hate.
Because it's smarter to pick them off one by one , than to attack them all at once.

That would be : "Pardon my Flemish/French/German " , depending on the region.

We don't even have a government at the moment ( how long is it now , more than 200 days ? I lost count ).
I never thought i'd say this the first time i saw it , but after some time , you do get used to goatse.
It's only mildly disgusting to me now.

They are indeed shootin themselves in the foot :
