I don't think they got a choice, it was either explicative or neutral word. Its just that it could be there "own" explicative. Not all swears are universal, so that would make sense. If they just tested "fuck" or "jesus christ", I'd imagine it wouldn't work on some people who either don't use those swears, or don't speak the language.
I can't run vista on my eee pc... it chugs to a halt.
Windows 7 RC runs without a hitch.
Time to internet is significantly reduced (measureable in minutes), by timed tests w/ stop watch, and I can run many more instances of excel / word / chrome without alt-tabbing causing pagefaults (about 5 more tabs in chrome, and 4 instances of excell/word, before the page faults start to go up).
It may not sound significant, but it makes using the thing practical. I can take it out and use it without having to wait.
It is comparable to XP, but it vastly more usable out of the box.
This is coming from a highly optimized Debian install. I even wrote my own custom ram-drive loader for it... I still have it on there w/ dual boot, but Firefox sucked compared to chrome (i could barely keep 4 tabs open without it taking 30 seconds to switch, whereas in chrome 15 tabs and switching is instantaneous)
The only thing that's faster is the xandrox OS that came with the thing. But it feels so gimped compared to win7.
processes aren't per-tab, but are per-site, so all your pages on slashdot.org are loaded in the same process, and can share memory (aka no dupliated images). you can verify this by looking at chrome's task manager...
this just in, all men should get breast exams on the off chance they have cancer. Better to be safe than sorry right?

While there is merit in placebo... For patients that don't have health-care plans, or those on fixed income, spending shit tons of money on what amounts to snake oil is quite a good reason to prescribe bullshit.
You bring to light a lot of good points and examples. Patients are belligerent. But I suppose thats to be expected in a country where a good portion of its populace are believing things that might as well amount to superstition.
the actual light producing part of an LED is tiny, even in the high powered ones... part of the reason that they don't make huge ones is that the actual light producing area is very small, and thus has a higher heat/area ratio... while they are effectively less heat than an incandescent, the concentration of heat is much higher, and requires larger heatsinks to wick that heat away into a larger surface area. The "bulb" of an LED is really only there to disperse the light.
what a draconian system, i bet your kid revolts, drops out of school, and hates you for not trusting him at all... worse yet the kid will develope a low self esteem and get bought up by a roaming physchopath the miniute he/she leaves your "guideing hand" (cuz, that what that manson guy did).
all jokes aside; do you admit to your own falibility? if you are doing something unfairly, does the kid have a chance of changing your mind? or are you going to tell him "because I said so" or even worse "because it's gods will", and dogmatically refuse all attempts at approching your reason. There is none a better way to cause a child to loath you, or god, or both, than being unreasonable.
God can never change your mind if you don't keep it open.
I relate this funny joke to you: (replace save, with change mind, and drowning, with raising child, and you might see what i'm talking about.)

"A devout Christian was on a sinking boat praying to God to save him.
An hour later a large fishing boat came by and asked if he wanted to come on board.
'No', he said. 'My Lord will save me'.
Two hours later another boat passed and tried to help.
But the Man said 'God will save me'.
Three hours later a helicopter flew by and offered him help.
Again the Man refused. 'God will not let me down'.
The Man died. When he went through the Pearly Gates he said 'My Lord. Why didn't you save me'.
God said 'I did. I sent you two boats and a helicopter. But you've got to work with me'."

I'm actually doing a similar thing right now, coding it up in perl. How big is your database's schema? How long did such an endeavor take you?

I don't know if you are being sarcastic, but isn't that the whole idea?
wrong, homeopathic sleep-aid. According to their ideology.
virutalbox can do my ubuntu virtual machine and still run graphics... opengl at least, for the composting on it!
I've been using chrome + ultramon for a a while, works fine for me...

sandisk internally emulates a cd-rom drive to my knowledge. I'd imagine that it is considers to be a read only media.
so would that make us anti-nationalist... I don't believe in the idea of countries?

As a side note, after a night of heavy drinking, its a good idea to have some quality yogurt, as your vodka has killed off most of the probiomes.
maybe you had a rootkit... ;)
i haven't had a bsod on winxp except when i unplugged my hdd while it was running.
I love how it was released so much earlier than the ps2, and yet you could emulate ps2 games on it at a higher resolution.
