So you put the binary content in a file in a branch and provide the link to the generated tar ball for that branch. It's not as if "file sharers" aren't used to having to unpack a archive which was inside another archive (which sometime was in even another archive).

I'm not sure if you are correct, though. From the FA:

"Bitcoins are really hard to get your hands on if you want to get them in large quantities," he told the BBC when asked why he decided to accept the currency for his home. "I have a couple projects that I want to get started, and they will take a lot of Bitcoins."

So it sure sound like he will accept at least quite a large part in Bitcoins. The article states that the priced asked for currently equal about 5300 Bitcoin.

I was a satisfied user of Bloglines for many years until it was overtaken and crippled by some Internet business. I reluctantly switched to Google Reader which had many shortcomings (e.g. no really persistent "keep unread" feature), but I got used to it because it was the only usable web RSS reader left.

Any now Google is killing this one as well. Thank you very much. Not.

I'm somewhat teared apart on this. On the one hand, it is great that they fight against this "Right Alliance". On the other hand, it appears quite foolish, considering the harsh sentences the TPB founders have received (we were told at that time, that what PirateBay does would be legal under swedish law, still they got very stiff sentences).

Kudos to them to stand up against this pressure, but I absolutely hope that none of them will have to face similar hard problems and sentences. And I hope that the pirate party will not get damage from this.

The creators should really decide what they feel. Because in the explanation on piratebay they show understanding if people won't buy before trying etc. but people should consider buying.

But then they use a file name containing "(pirate)" and also put at least one text scroller in the movie "Decided to pirate our movie, eh?"

No, i did not decide to pirate your movie. I downloaded it because you offered it for free download. I'm not a fan of Minecraft but if I like what I see I might have considered buying the movie.

But being insulted as a pirate when I just took their offer? This will surely not help positively with my decision if I shall give them money.

For quite a while there is a third kind of milk, at least over here in Germany, so called "prolonged freshness" (lÃnger frisch).

By either microfiltration or short heating of the milk (much less than UHT) you get milk which will stay fresh for about two to three weeks. The dealers love that milk because there is less risk of waste and they only need to order less frequently. Unfortunately there is absolutely no gain to the customer because once the milk was first opened, it will bet bad as fast as "normal" milk. Also the "longer fresh" milk tastes not so good.

These days it is getting rather hard to get "normal" (fresh/traditional made) milk.

Habs leider nicht geschafft. Habt Ihr Euch denn getroffen?

Vielleicht auf anderem Wege Kontakt aufnehmen um ggf. Details zu besprechen?

Duisburg is fine. I'm planning to attend.

If you do such a stunt, always carry another paid-for ticket with you. By doing so many of the possible charges like riding without a ticket can not be applied.

Even Fraud might be off the table because the fraud would normally be that you made the machine believe that you have a valid ticket. But in that case you have a valid ticket, so likely no Fraud (depends on the country and their laws).

Ok, mcdonalds.org is owned by MCD, but mcdonalds.net is not. Neither is mcdonalds.info, mcdonalds.pro or mcdonalds.travel.

Or for some ccTLDS:

Not owned: mcdonalds.li, mcdonalds.am, mcdonalds.com.ar, mcdonalds.bg, this list goes on.
Not even registered: mcdonalds.ag, mcdonalds.ai, this list as well goes on.

Untrue. For example Naturstrom charges EUR 0.234 per kWh for power produced 100% by water and wind).

Power from coal, nuclear and other sources is cheaper. My local utility for example charges EUR 0,2293 per kWh for the first 5000 kWh and then EUR 0,2177 per kWh.

There is no "kW/h", but there IS "kWh" which is actually the unit my utility company measures and bills my usage in (currently 0,234 EUR per kWh).

Likewise it should be "gigawatthours", not "gigawatts per hour". But then it makes perfectly sense. If my device has a power usage of 1 kW and I let it running for an hour, well it's 1 kWh.

I believe the argument is, that if the liquid is in a greater bottle it can not be (that) easily determined if the amount of liquid is within the limits. If it is already in a small bottle which does not exceed the limit it's clear. So it is probably a way to speed up security checking.
