...when properly installed and droven in. A friend installed a vollquarzen 2 days before a major competition and needless to say, what worked in trials didn't work out so well in real use. Needed some break-in.

What if you attach pocket knives to a hockey stick? The polearm poll yesterday lacked this option.

Do a google search for Finnish Air Force flag. Those flags are still in use. Only the pilot's emblem on their uniform and national insignia in aircraft was changed because the United Communist Atheist Horde of Russia (part of Allies) demanded it.

Yes it's horrible and obsolete, technically speaking. It's still used in lots of collaborative calendar software. Having syncml clients for OSX and iPhone would help me and lots of other people too to get rid of horrible nokias etc.

I'd rather have syncml support in osx calendar and iphone. The only reason to hang on nokias...

Slashdot has ads? (checks it out with safari...) OMG :-) I was unaware. Thank you, adblock.

The problem is not the energy, the problem is the time dilatation. Once you go near-c, you can as well go very near c since you're dead to everyone you knew.

Lasers in front to plasmatize the hydrogen, huge magnetic fields to move the plasma to the REAR of the ship, where a "virtual" burn chamber (really just magnetic fields) captures the plasma. Another mag field keeps the antimatter from touching anything, and gradually releases anti-atoms to the furnace. BOOM mega boost. Easy to shield mere energies if you can do all that trickery with fields. Certainly possible - just very, very hard.

a phone is always with you. a pencil + notepad thing is a two-part potential failure, you can be out of paper or missing a pen.

a phone is always with you. I find the iPhone(tm)(r)(c) is very handy when taking notes. What makes it even handier is the way everything in iphone is backed up to your desktop machine which in turn is getting backed up...

I tried using calendars, memos and stuff with nokias. NOT WORTH THE HASSLE, basically I lost all my data periodically and it was hellish to use. iPhone makes it actually easy and I have yet to lose any data.

Usability is king.

FUCK OFF.

Britannia is lost. Former empire is now a police-state. V (original comic) was right.

Really - only criminals (predominantly of foreign (muslim) origin) carrying guns, police carrying MP5s at every streetcorner, all kinds of surveillance running rampant.

Britain is gone. British no longer have the will or the means to save themselves, they have already in spirit surrendered to muslims and while the process will take some time, it will happen unless they find a fucking clue and stop treating their own british-born citizen like sheep.

a working X11/RDP thin client costs under 200 euros.

A typical workstation costs 500-600 euros.

WTF was this about again?

The fact that after 341 replys I found no matches for "saabists" or "homos" or "cheapshots" tells its grim tale. From a Finnish perspective, totally objective! SAAB cost more than Datsuns and other japs in the early 80s in Finland. They were bought by homos with attitude problems, who could not afford a BMW or a Mercedes-Benz. So they assholed their merry way around our highways, feeling superior, driving their gay swedish abominations. Owning a SAAB mean "I HAVE MONEY" or "LOOK HONEY; I DRIVE LIKE A DRUNKEN GAY TURKEY", usually both. Fuck you, SAAB, and good riddance. SAAB did one interesting post-war jet fighter, the Tunnan (wikipedia for it). SAAB dying is an end of an era - twilight of a socialdemocratic nation.

A typical 9mm pistol using a typical 9mm cartridge can achieve kinetic bullet energies in the 500J ballpark.

More than that requires overpressure variants (P+, +P+) or lighter-than-normal bullets.

P+/+P+ loads impose more wear and tear on the frame/slide, so I say using them is madness. Many use these in IPSC to achieve greater "power factor."

awk can replace any command in this poll except telnet...
