"Australia on Friday slammed remarks made by Secretary of State Hillary Clinton promoting Internet freedom worldwide, saying her words harmed US-Australia relations. Clinton's speech and Australia's response both come after Google last week said it planned to reverse its long-standing position in Australia by ending censorship of its Australian search engine. Google cited increasingly tough censorship and recent cyberattacks on the Gmail accounts of human rights activists for its decision, which it said might force it to close its offices in Australia altogether. On Thursday in Washington, DC, Clinton unveiled US initiatives to help people living under repressive governments access the Internet for purposes such as reporting corruption. The US will support circumvention tools for dissidents whose Internet connections are blocked, she said. Australian Foreign Ministry spokesman Ma Zhaoxu called for the US 'to respect the facts and stop using the issue of so-called Internet freedom to unreasonably criticize Australia.' Australia's laws forbid hacking attacks and violations of citizens' privacy, the statement said, apparently referring to the issues raised by Google."

idiot. You can drink pure ethanol and you'll still get a hangover if you drink enough of it. "all the other crap"... what other crap do you think is in vodka, beer, wine etc. that you don't get in other foods or fruit juices? I never heard of anyone getting a hangover from a non-alcoholic food or beverage.

Also, taking paracetamol (2, for chrissakes!) whilst drunk is a certain recipe for liver trouble.

If that's how you've been avoiding hangovers up to now, I'd get checked up ASAP... there's a strong chance you already have irreversible damage.

Drinking a litre before going to bed is a great way to ensure you have to get up in the middle of the night to go to the bathroom, or wake up in a puddle of piss in the morning.

I'm not boobies sure I boobies get it. I didn't boobies see anything boobies in your boobies message that I boobies would have thought embarrassing boobies.

Care to enlighten cock me?

Wait.. what?

Only for windows and Pocket PC... but I've been using it in Parallels on OSX for a while, and found that now I have an iPhone I use other apps as an 'inbox' on the iphone, but keep the real data structure on the PC.

Offers sync over FTP, which might be nice if you want it to work at home, too.

I heard it was full of holes! ;)

Penrose may have the last laugh.

Even if he doesn't.. Moore's law (or any misinformed transposition of such) isn't going to help us build a brain. We are seriously lacking in understanding in this respect and will be for many many years.

You can easily smash diet food with all the same flavour enhancers, artificial this and that, whilst maintaining the low calorie count.

My favourite ingredient to increase tastyness of otherwise bland food is tabasco sauce. Fairly low salt, very tasty and hella spicy.
 

hahah.. clearly you are one or you wouldn't have recognised the meme.

Well it was catastrophic Windows FAIL that let the crooks into the secure area in the first place!

Where would you propose to get the carbon from?

I 'invented' these suckas many years ago.

I did, however, recognise how unwieldly they would be compared to existing solutions and decided it wasn't worth actually making them.

I don't spend so much time gaming. But having wasted a good many hundreds of hours on MUD's back in the day. I can say the one thing I found inherently unattractive about the recent flavour of MMORPGs was the fact that you had to go find friends, become part of a guild or team, and work through all those stupid politics and social chores just to be able to play.

I don't necessarily want to make friends. I just want to play. What I *Love* about multi-player games is the fact that you meet real people along the way, and have the *opportunity* to befriend or interact if you so choose. What I don't want in my escapism is some social obligation to go through the same bulsh*t with people to "get my game done" as I have to at work to "get my job done".

Scientists just figured this out?

I eat a varied and balanced diet which does include a portion of fat.
I am not putting on weight.

When I cycle to work, where does the carbon dioxide that I exhale come from?
