So? I used to be able to carry a fucking knife onboard a plane before. Albeit no longer than 7cm (IIRC), I could perfectly well have killed people/taken someone hostage/stabbed a pilot. And guess what... I didn't.
In the good old days, before Googling became a word, there was competition in the search market. FAST had AllTheWeb.com, and at that time the difference between FAST and Google wasn't big. FAST has had quite a few great minds employed, but Google beat them to the punch. I liked FAST, and I used to work for them maintaining linux and *bsd servers. Great company:)
A friend of mine has actually died. He was dead for more than a whopping 15 minutes before successful resuscitation. So I'll take his word for it that there ain't nothing afterwards. He did recieve a minor braindamage though...
My last name.com and.org have been parked for several years (.com since 2001, I believe). Seeing as my last name is held by a whopping 14 persons, and I'm the only one interested in computers, I wonder how they got the idea...
Because most operating systems page out unused data even if you have plenty of free RAM. That way the free RAM can be used for cache or a sudden peak in memory usage.
I'm just curious as to why my previous comment was moderated Troll. If you drive responsibly, you are unlikely to end up in situations where you need to accelerate to avoid an accident. Of course, a lot of drivers are complete morons that drive huge cars and feel invincible. From what I've read in this discussion, it appears most Americans are... (Oh, yes, I'm going to get another Troll mod for that one...)
The power company can't sell electricity for more than it costs to produce it yourself that way, because then no one would buy it, and they can't pay you as much or more than they get when selling it, because then they'll go banckrupt.
Of course they can pay you much, much more than they sold it for, they're not buying a lot. In the long run, that costs them less than a brown/blackout, even if they pay you several hundred times what you paid.

Same here in Norway. Everybody I knew with C64 had tape drives. I vaguely remember the compressed type loading with flashing colors and such. I've only seen one of them fancy floppy drives in my life (And I managed to destroy it with a malplaced poke that made it spin overnight)
If you don't have to remember part of it, why not make the whole password fucking crazy? Since you already have to cut'n'paste, why have a part of the password be easier than another?
While annoying, the rumble strips serve a very useful purpose, namely safety. It sounds like your path has been destroyed by bad design though. To me, the annoyance is definitely worth it for the number of lives saved.
Yeah, like that'd help. Do you think your USB-chipset can handle much more than 500mbps concurrent traffic? Doesn't matter how many ports it has, it is unlikely to be close to S-ATA speeds seeing as the USB-chipset is on the regular (1gbps?) PCI-bus...
Mercedes-Benz has IR-reflecting glass on some models to reduce heat from the sun. No driving in the whateveryoucallit-lane for you! What will the camera do if there are *no* heat signatures in the car at all? Give a ticket? Ignore it? I want a Benz if it's ignored;-)

I thought Google already did enterprise search with their rack units?

I was generalizing a bit too much... Driving responsibly will protect you from *most* accidents.

You shouldn't be driving fast enough to get into trouble that you need to accelerate out of in any case...

Step two is superflous
You should check the definition of funny. And go buy yourself a bucket of humor while you're at it, you look deficient.
Alanis Morisette. That damn "Ironic" song isn't even ironic. It is the damn Murphys law!

What's wrong with that? UTC (Formerly known as 'Greenwich' time), if you "expand" 'nee' to what it means.

Lame mods. Parent is humor. If you don't get it, you must be new here ;)
Li-ION is worthless for this purpose. It'll only last a few hundred charge/discharge cycles. Lead-acid batteries are both cheaper and longer lasting.
Hilariously pointless ;)
Some of Mercedes-Benz newer models have IR-reflecting glass all around. So they're gonna give tickets to all of them? I don't think so ;)
