Yes...
For a while now I get a lot of congratulations accompanied by 15 modpoints I have no idea what to do with.
Not sure when that started, but I seem to have 15 modpoints about 50% of the time I'm even on Slashdot
Normally I'd much prefer the people actually maintaining and supporting the software to install it in QA and promote it to Production.
This gives them some more knowledge about what they're supporting, and also avoids the 'Just gotta change this' mentality so prevalent in developers
I think you meant:
(Iff (pathent-on-ssoftware p) 'reject 'affept)
(Yes yes, I didn't know exactly how I'd do that with a lisp..)
And the really funny thing here is, that these clocks (in use all over Europe by the way, not just in Switzerland) actually *do* run fast.
The seconds dial goes around in (IIRC) 58 seconds, so it stops at the top, where it waits for a central resync.
This has 2 reasons/effects. One is that all clocks are always synced exactly to the minute. The other is that with the dial stopped at the 'minute' mark, the train has 3 seconds to actually leave exactly on time
Set your song lead-in to 0.
This is just an attempt to farm low UIDs, isn't it? Just admit it! You want old farts to respond to your post.
Ha! I'm not falling for it. Nosiree!
No.
Number 1 is correct, in the sense that it allows them to track anyone, anywhere.
Number 2 is incorrect, since storing license plates does not in any way, shape or form increase the chance of catching someone.
The only thing needed for number 2 to function, is to have a license plate read read the license plate (it's what they do right), and then NOT STORE ANYTHING, but do an immediate query to a database of license plates that are known to be wrong (stolen, no insurance, etc).
This does NOT require them to store all license plates at all times, it actually doesn't require them to store any scanned license plates at all.
It's really very simple.
Most pre-order companies put it middle of September, so that seems a fairly reasonable bet.
Iran and Iraq just used POWs and 'undesirables', sometimes kids. Very efficient, although possibly not entirely in accordance to the Geneva convention...
Don't know where you get your 80 from, but my punch cards only had 72 usable columns..
(Yes. IBM Mainframe..)
Price for 100Mb connection?
Where I live, about 60 euros per month..
Price for 1Gb? Depends on what you want your uplink to be, but with a decent Docsis3 implementation, this is quite easy to get, and if it costs 600 euros per month, I'm sure that's not too terrible for 1000 students.
Splut.
they were "police actions" goddamit.
I think you made a small typo there. I'm sure you meant to type 'policy actions'.
Well, just look at what you said for a simple explanation.
US (Big S, Big Satan)
Israel (Small S, Small Satan)
United Kingdom (No S at all, so no Satan)
Sorry. I can't resist. But most likely a pedophile wouldn't be very interested in fucking you.
The rest however are valid points
After any salary raise, you will have less money at the end of the month than you did before.
