I listen to music from my parents generation, it brings back lots of (mostly) happy childhood memories, and as I've listened to more of it, I've learnt to appreciate it, and have made my own discoveries of good music from the same era. As a teen I had different musical tastes, that my parent's couldn't stand, and I went through a phase of not wanting to hear my parents music, but one grows out of that.

My 19yr old daughter, recently said "I wish I was alive in the eighties, you guys had the best music" I was flattered, but I also know that she only gets to hear the good music from back then. I have my parents music collection, my daughter wants mine*, and we both wish we had my grandparents collections.

* Sweets, if you read this, hopefully you still have a loooooong time to wait before you start prising it from my cold, dead fingers

Apparently, Steve Jobs also felt this way, he pushed for shared space to allow employees to "spontaneously mingle and collaborate", while at Pixar, and also with the new "spaceship" campus for Apple. See: An In-depth Look At Apple’s Iconic Campus II

Another "human" language can be a great help as well.

I am fluent in English and Shona although I spend most of my time "in English mode". I have found that thinking through a difficult coding problem in Shona works wonders. I have been doing it for years, but only recently realised that it was happening.

I think it has something to do with the different grammar and sentence structure forcing the brain to think in a different way.

NatWest works fine with Safari on OS X, and has done for quite a while now.

CSS != CSS

The stolen CSS in question: Cascading Style Sheets (used for styling web pages)

DVD CSS: Content Scramble System (used for protecting content on DVD's)

Also making a movie entails much more time, effort and manpower than either of the CSS's above which could feasibly both be created by a lone coder in a dark basement ;-)

The last concert I went to was about a decade ago, but I still remember it fondly, I had a good time, and it's a memory that will hopefully last the rest of my life. Granted, it's not a major memory, but all the little ones add up. The point is to gather more good ones than bad ones.

MS Word, OpenOffice, Pages etc are "Word Processing" applications.
There are other applications like QuarkXpress, that are "Page Layout" applications

Use a word processor to get the text the way you want it, then use a proper page layout application to do the typesetting.

Right tool for the right job!

You should be able to add that particular site the the click2play whitelist, then flash will be run automatically, just for that site (and any others you have added to the whitelist), bit of a pain, but you only have to do it once.

Isn't it cheaper and easier to get the data from the horses mouth?

It get's let loose into the public domain. ;-)

For people who live in countries where guns are not that common, 4 guns seems like a lot.

I had two guns when I lived in Zimbabwe, (one pistol, one shotgun, necessary as I worked in Mining), but here in the UK, I don't know anyone who has a gun, so if I heard that one of my friends had four of the things, I'd find it very strange indeed.

It is already really easy to setup your own personal server, and share your photo's and whatever else. This works fine if you want to share with a specific and limited set of people. If you want to share with the "world", which many people do, then the world needs to be able to find you, and that's where the problem lies.

What the services like Facebook and Twitter "really" provide, is a managed way for others to find what you are sharing, and unfortunately, I don't think that will be possible to replicate effectively, without one of these centralised services.

Edit the "Album Artist" tag for all the songs in the Album, to the same value. This will solve your problem of "split" albums, as it takes precedence over the "Artist" tag.

Apple could produce a $350 "MacBook Lite", by upgrading the processor of a previous MacBook model, and selling it alongside the newer designs. And they would sell in droves.

I'm not saying that they should, but they could if they wanted to.

There are already 10 other countries that use the US$ as their sole official currency, with a further 10 countries using it in parallel with their own currency.

So no reason that seceded states couldn't do the same, it's not like you could effectively go and take the currency back.
