No. It's in the words. It lasts 33% longer "than 3 hours" As you compare some value to "3 hours" you would also compute the difference in regard to "3 hours".
Otherwise I could say things like "100% longer", when I "define" 100% equals 1 hour.
Your position seems to be the widely spreading "guilty until otherwise proven" one. By that logic, why would anyone use sun glasses in winter? Or even: Why would anyone wear cloth, unless they are unbelievable ugly?
Sadly, a lot of very attractive women seem to wear cloth these days.
Where was I? Ah, yes: Forbid beautiful people to waer clothes. That was my point!
The kid is going to stand up, full speed, and bang the hell out of his head on the underside of the table. It is going to happen faster than you can do anything to stop it.
Thats because you are old. So, what was your point again?
Yes, yes, we all know that from grade school. But what happens when AMD launches a "Phenom IIs"
The reason the apostrophe is inappropriately used is because it works. When people see Phenom II's, they pronounce it correctly -and- the ambiguity is removed as to whether the "s" is part of the name.
Probably every human rights organization (even some within the US) felt the urge to monitor, please go on searching, but take off these glasses you wear.
I'm sure your government told you its only those evil communists who distrust the great americans people...
But the headline leads you to believe this was somehow a voting machine flaw, rather than a social engineering attack based around shitty UI design ("Vote" means vote, not, "Confirm my Choices").
If you are told it's alright that you can't actually verify your vote, because the machine can not be fixed to misplace it and than thats exactly what happens, I'd say it's a damn big security problem with these machines!
I suspect that in elections from 2000 to 2006, the standards of democracy in the US fell to below what we would consider acceptable in emerging democracies. Where there would be monitoring from outside observers.
Actually, many international Organizations wanted to monitor the US-american elections. They were not allowed. Go figure...
Of course, religion doesn't negate literacy. But it creates an environment where science is not that important anymore.
Yet, when the secular progressives run everything literacy is now less than it was when GOD was actually in the classrooms.
Let me tell you. From an outsiders perspective, US-Americans have not been as fanatic as they are now for at least the last 100 years. And I deliberately did not use the word "religious" here. Mentioning Jesus in every second sentence has nothing to do with religion!
What is the Federation really? At least as written by Gene Roddenberry it seems to border on communism.
That's interesting. To me it always seemed to parallel the american cultural imperialism. High standard of living, plentifulness,assimilation without force, but assimilating nevertheless, moral high ground, fighting everyone with a different nose... Scratch the last, but otherwise it fits. Don't you think?
BTW, Fireflys "Alliance" is a great parody of STs "Federation"!
Good lord, that was supposed to be a JOKE!:) Can take 5 hops across the globe, can take 50 hops to reach my neighbour. That measure is way too rough to be useful for this.

To top this: You could say that Ubuntu takes -25% longer than XP. :)
No. It's in the words.

A twisted pair I guess.

... so I decided to split up and now there are two of me posting on slashdot.

Damn.
We need an escape character for natural languages!
Phenom IIs is a plural.
Yes, yes, we all know that from grade school. But what happens when AMD launches a "Phenom IIs"
The reason the apostrophe is inappropriately used is because it works. When people see Phenom II's, they pronounce it correctly -and- the ambiguity is removed as to whether the "s" is part of the name.
That is, until AMD releases the "Phenom II's"

Go figure...
And don't spare those that made this, against all warnings, possible.
Prison? Australia?
The deed is done
Well, they are currently trying to elaborate on that cover story by having trojans on their ATMs:

So they can believably go for the "yes we are THAT stupid" defense.

I believe you misunderstood the GPs statement.
He did not try to offend "pimps, hos and playas", but the culture their glorification stands for.

Just modify the TTL in your answer packets.
TTL=8 won't leave your state, TTL=3 is roughly your suburb, TTL=1 is your mom
Thats two wins for one person. Wow.
This is a Republic, not a Democracy, and you need to let leaders lead.
These two are not mutual exclusive as you seem to think. ...) are both. The UK is a democracy, but not a republic.

Is there really anybody out there who does *not* get this is irony??
Well, basically that is the definition of "senate", senex meaning "old man"...
You mean like the actual fucking person the article is about? Oh wait, Wikipedia doesn't consider the actual fucking person to be a "primary source"!
And therein lies Wikipedia's problem.
Please do not disturb the fucking person. That would be just rude.
