It seems that the Angry Birds iPhone covers, air fresheners, chew toys, fruit snacks, T-shirts, and cock rings sold at the local drug store have all been replaced by Duck Dynasty variants of the same. I took that to mean that nobody cared about Angry Birds any more.
Exactly. Which is why Rovio is playing this "The NSA is snooping through Angry Birds/Hackers are defacing the website" false flag. They are just trying to drum up some business.
Must have been an April fools article. Since when is a garlic press useful? Nevertheless, all of those thing can work just fine with ABS plastic, since they are primarily compressive loads. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8PijBtGqLhs
I was going for the +5Funny, but I do have such a machine, and it does have an SSD. I forget whether it is 60G or 120G. (It's sleeping now, I haven't got the Wake On LAN set up yet, so I can't remote in to find out.) Perhaps one day I will try a Gentoo compile to a RAM disk as Shinobi suggests, just to see how long it takes.
Make him the President, then he can see how much it costs to put up with people of his ilk. On the flip side, we'll find out the truth about the Kennedy assassination, Roswell, and Area 51.
Machines allow humans to get better. 20,000 years ago, travelling from New York to Paris meant ten years of walking. 500 years ago it would have taken 10 weeks in a wooden sailing ship. 100 years ago, it could be done by steam boat in 10 days. Today: 10 hours by plane. Machines don't improve unless man improves his ability to understand and manipulate the world around him.
The space program was both the result and the source of technological development. It acted as a focal point for many scientists and engineers, providing a fertile soil for technological development. Sure, there was existing technology, but there was also the need to develop new technology to overcome the problems. We may have gotten around to developing and refining the tech sooner or later, but how long would it have taken to develop SSDs and flash drives, digital camera technologies and related technologies if it were not for the Hubble telescope?
It takes 15 seconds to take a book from the shelf, flip through a few pages, and put it back. That cannot be done with a digital book in five times the time.
I was the king of bad rolls back in the day... or I would have been if the tens die had been a 9 instead of a 2. Many's the time when I heard the DM roll, then roll again, mutter, then roll again, before announcing that I'd been seriously injured. I think the bad rolls are what kept me from getting too serious about gaming.

Elizabeth II of Canada Queen
Elizabeth II Reine du Canada
The title in English is a bit "Yoda-esque" in its phrasing and is lacking proper punctuation, but like I said: She's Queen of Canada.
Sorry. I'm not sure how I missed that. Too focused on the "100% write", " not a single time in the seven years I've worked here have we read a tape after it was written." and "The vast majority of their users write data that they never read back" phrases, I guess. I withdraw my comment.
in Canada, we have to ask the Queen of England to intervene.
No. This is a common fallacy. We have to ask the Queen of Canada to intervene. The fact that she is the same person as the Queen of England is irrelevant.

Congratulations! You win the Internet!

So which is it? Do the NSA have my Angry Birds high score or don't they?
If you can't get work done because people keep stopping by your cube to bug you about trivia, a garlic press can be very useful indeed.
Sigh! Stuck in a cube farm in Transylvania.

When two items are close together, what's ablated on one side, is vacuum deposited on the other... but with neutron beams.
Any economy that isn't the ecology is an artificial one.
Because if a Tesla can't charge below 0, then it is useless for most of Europe and North America for most of the winter months.

What you seem to want is Gentoo.
Gentoo? I've only got an 8 core machine with 64G of RAM.

One of these days... One of these days you're going to forget to click the check-box next to "Post Anonymously" and you will reveal your username.
And what, exactly, would that tell you?
Would agree to terms before they even tell you what the terms are?
Anyone who's opened the shrinkwrap.
Nevermind the guy in the sunglasses. How long can the guy in the grey hat hold his breath?
I'm pretty sure yours stopped working about 40 years ago.
What are you talking about? The US has never had an autonomous rover on the Moon.

To those who say some variation of "American can't build them like they used to", I say "top that!"
10 years of service when built to last 90 days. E.nough.said
Well, We'll see how long Curiosity lasts.
...you mean to tell me that the Save icon was designed to look like a physical item?
Bad plan. I've seen many people click on that icon in an attemt to open their document, only to overwrite it with the default new blank document.
Discriminating against a physical trait is a lot different than discriminating against bad character.
