You're mistaken. That was a -1 from the world of Balanced Ternary who was lost in your own world.

Sounds like my artistry. I can picture what I want to draw in my head, but it just doesn't turn out that way. In fact, the first line/curve I draw gets messed up, and it just gets worse with each passing second.

From the "Uses" section of Wikipedia's "Contact paper" entry:

It's quite probable that while the term is "contact paper" of the clear variety, it was actually the sticky-backed plastic you're all talking about. I'm not saying paper can't be transparent, but I'm suggesting the possibility that it was not, in this case, paper as the name "contact paper" suggests.

Lining cupboards and drawers was sometimes done with wallpaper in some of the homes I've seen. Other times it's probably a form of contact paper.

So, it's not really like Pandora at all, and more like Google Play Music, which lets you keep your music in Google's cloud and stream it to your mobile device?

Or are we talking something similar to an actual radio's function on your phone, letting you select your station and everything, like iHeartRadio does?

I thought about antigravity as well, though your reference is lost on me. I'm currently imagining Back to the Future II cars...with bubbles on the bottom. The world will be cleansed...by bubbles. Of course that means there will be people who instead of walking will take the aerobus, so there will need to be bubble shelters where people can avoid the bubbles while waiting for it. After all, who wants to walk into work with sticky clothing, hair, etc.?

From a psychological perspective, I think the author most likely is often misunderstood offline. As a result, reinforcing the idea being expressed is a subconscious necessity, based upon interpersonal encounters.

Or maybe his wife/girlfriend has been complaining at him about the fact that they never understand each other, which is natural since men and women think and react differently.

Some argue yes. However, one might simply write ℕ = {x ∈ ℤ : x ≥ 0}, which says that a natural number is defined to be a number in the set of integers greater than or equal to 0. From that point forward, one could continue using the term "natural number" unambiguously throughout a paper. Oh, and in case people can't see that, it's basically N = {x in Z : x >= 0}, where N is a notation used for natural numbers and Z is used for integers.

I love the encoding issues I find on this site. Instead of \xE2\x80\x9C for UTF-8, you get \xE2\x6F\x65 for the left double quotation mark (U+201C), which can't be decoded as UTF-8 because it's not proper UTF-8 due to the values of the second and third bytes. How does that even happen? \x6F\x65 and \x80\x9C aren't even remotely related-looking in binary form, and converting to another encoding doesn't work either. WTF? Or maybe it's Windows' fault. Yeah. That's it. It's not Slashdot's fault. It's Windows' fault. Stupid Windows.

As an American, I must say that you're quite correct.

American football is not football. Hell, you don't even use your feet because you can't let the ball touch the field! The foot needs to be put back into football.

All it is otherwise is basketball, except the ball must travel according to the rules and tackling is allowed. Based on that alone, basketball is arguably more difficult than American football when you take into consideration that basketball requires you to dribble and run and know when to pass whereas American football only requires you to run and know when to pass. It's less safe, yet requires less thought, subconscious or otherwise, from the player. Oh well. Nobody ever claimed we Americans were intelligent.

Now rugby... That's some REAL football. ;-)

Don't forget the severe reduction in the life of the drive as a result of all the writes being performed on it. And since it's for Windows, it would benefit from antivirus software. Got multiple computer viruses that just can't be gotten rid of, no matter how many times your AV software moves files and kills processes? No problem! Just kill the flash drive with all of the write operations that are performed as a result of the file moving!

Yes. The place you need to get to is called "Sunny Town". Once there... Well, just play the game and find out.

I was just about to mention this. :-)

Why the hell would anybody want a cup holder connected to their phone with hot coffee? I don't mean to sound elitist, but the idea is terrible!

1. 1. Insert cup containing hot beverage into cup holder.
2. 2. Mess with your phone a bit until you want a drink.
3. 3. Grab the cup and spill the coffee all over your phone because you can't get it out of the cup holder.
4. 4. Drop your phone and scream in pain because you just poured hot coffee all over your hands and possibly other places.
5. 5. Accept that your phone is totally f***ed and curse the manufacturer.
6. 6. Continue cursing them, even though it was your choice to buy such a ridiculous thing.
