What we need is that add-on, but with calls to VLC instead of WMP. That would make the add-on multiplatform.

It may not be the politically correct thing to wish for, but I'll take anything that replaces crappy Flash video on the OS X version of Firefox.

Gamers are more likely to be young men, who are already much more accident-prone than the average. Did the studies take this into acount?

The old discussion system (D1) is still available and works correctly.

If the original news articles were spidered before deletion, the information may still exist. I don't speak Chinese so I can't do much to try and find it though.

this article has more info incl 2 images.

This is done to prevent you from driving up to the intersection at the posted limit without braking because you assume that the light will go green in time. If it's just you at the intersection that's not a problem, but when two people approach the intersection using the same assumption, mayhem ensues.

It's the other way round: you zap the car (which is connected to ground through its reasonably conductive tires). You build up a static charge through friction; getting out of the car is a good way to build up a nice static charge.

Some cars have grounding points in the doors (my previous car had them next to the interior door lock knobs). Use those, and you won't get zapped.

Laser cutters are useful for other types of work than 3D printers. A laser cutter is 2D. For my hobby (building scale models) a 2D cutter has limited value because most of the parts I need are in 3D.

the lobes for business.

If that were the case, it would be sufficient to break the article into two pages. >2 serves no purpose other than ad revenue.

I think you're not far from the truth. The museum is run by volunteers, and depends on donations for income. They operate on a shoestring budget; this particular build will have dedicated funding, though.

I was at Bletchley Park a couple of months ago and by chance the National Museum of Computing was open that day. They've got some interesting displays of old computers, and their goal is to get them all running again. They cover everything between EDSAC and modern computers. Their oldest computer is a Harwell WITCH from 1951 (a decimal computer), this is being restored at the moment. Other fun stuff includes a collection of calculators, and a BBC micro with a working BBC Domesday Project laserdisc installation.

It's a separate museum on the Bletchley Park grounds, and its opening times are a bit limited (esp. in winter), so check before you go.

Faster than the limit, but below the speed at which ticketing starts (legally, that's the speed limit +3% in this country). This avoids the very slow overtaking (annoying) that happens when I try to keep the speed limit exactly.

When volume is ramped up, these could easily become less expensive than bifocals; after all, there's only one grinding operation per lens instead of two.

Switching manually is a pain, but so is moving your head to get the correct lens in view.

Sure, runways are numbered according to their compass heading, but the omission of the last digit tells me that it doesn't need to be all that accurate. That makes it unlikely that this number is used in navigation.

I'm no pilot, but the only actual function of the runway number I can think of is the visual identification (to make sure the pilot is lining up on the correct runway). What would go wrong if Tampa just kept using the number 18R/36L?

You liked that it was possible at all, probably saving you lengthy roadtrips to administer a remote server. But when comparing to working on a local machine, GP is entirely correct. I occasionally use a remote Windows computer. Even on our 100 Mbps company network the mouse lag is annoyingly noticeable, let alone when I'm logging in from home via an SDSL line (6 Mbps?).
