Selective amnesia's the story
Believed foretold but who'd suspect
The business intelligence
Two words combined that can't make sense

So, Silicene has just been observed for the first time under a scanning tunnel microscope, has had its properties only theoretically proposed, and is hoped to be "as miraculous as Graphene". Nevertheless, the author of the article already believes that it will beat Graphene to the market? Sheesh! Are all headlines nowadays conjured up by a dedicated company full of marketing types?
I don't know why people are even considering the 95 out of 100 distros that can simply be written off for any number of reasons. There are only a handful of players of worth when it comes to a reliable, user-friendly desktop for average use. These are in no particular order:
-Ubuntu
-Kubuntu
-Mint
-Fedora
-Debian
-SuSE
-Arch
The above list can be trimmed down even further if you merge all the Debian derivatives. Everything else >
If I consider average users to be Mom and Pop types who are basically simply after a browser, spreadsheet and Picasa, I always install Kubuntu. The only hardware issues I face nowadays tend to be related to the webcam and printer. Those are usually solved pretty quickly.
IMO, the reasons why Desktop Linux has not yet taken off are:
-Bundling
-Power users are happy with Windows/Macs and its the power users who advise the average users.
-Work culture; people stick to known poisons.
So, exposing yourself in public puts you on the sex offenders list? Since when? What degree of exposure are we talking about? How are "flashing" and "mooning" treated?
Seconded. A little ironic that "komonews" thought it important to censor Brennon's bottom.
Or as in some cases, you need a court date because you are dead.
"In a process called ‘reflashing,’ the Mercedes system can turn on the car operating system (CU), download the new application, then cut itself off."
So the car is regularly polling a server and can switch itself on? That sounds decidedly unsettling.
Could somebody elaborate on the diagnostic capabilities of these cars? Do they alert you if your brakes are inefficient or if your tyres are wearing out? I'm too poor to afford one to know
Cheers.
I believe that the preferences page is/was buggy as I used to have the same issue until I visiting it again and re-saved.
You can also access the same preferences page by clicking on the "gear" icon above the comment subject field. However, saving any changes will force a page refreshing and consequently result in a loss of any data in the comment textarea. Very friendly.
What we always want is fresh, interesting news coupled with better editing. You might be incorporating new features, but you're falling behind on these core requirements. I don't know whether I switched off some button somewhere. But I'm happy that I'm seeing far fewer book reviews (and I use the word review quite wrongly) nowadays.
I'd like to see a time-based analysis on the use of exclamation marks in article titles (such as this one). I reckon that it'll be indicative and illuminating
Ah, thank you
So, like many others I'm sure, I can't be asked to watch the video... but I'm curious as to what these non-technical reasons are for buying a new TV before June. Anybody care to list them?
An adequate bootstrap is a contradiction in terms.
