If they were simply drunk, talking on their phone, or otherwise distracted you would let them off with a mild beating?

Intel's new chip design. as seen on /.

Or worse. They'll make it big and shiny and have a little blurb telling you how it is going to protect your digital rights.

The problem is that you have to ask at all.

Natural language is generally inefficient at describing algorithms.
You could if you wanted to, but it's more efficient to use a combination of pseudo code and references to other mutually understood algorithms.

I don't know which source you got that from. Here's one more reputable than some fanboy site. The NPD Group, heard of them?

For the year 2007, Xbox 360 sold 4.62 million units, PS3: 2.56 million. [1]

For the year 2008 through November, Xbox 360 sold 3,295,400 while PS3 sold 2,818,900. [2]

But, you know, you're almost right. Through most of 2008, PS3 was selling better than Xbox 360, but look at September, October, and especially November.

I shouldn't spend so much time responding to AC's, but I wanted to point out that this one is not informative, just providing misinformation and accusing all dissenters of being fanboys when it seems like this AC's bias may lean toward the PS3, or maybe they were simply uninformed.

Now can I get a frickin' hotpocket?

By that methodology your only limiting factor on the number of folds is the length of the material. If your paper were 1km long, you could get nearly 100,000 folds spaced 1cm apart. Of course, it is only nearly 100,000 because of the one or two mm lost in each fold.

The important issue addressed by the MythBusters was "how many times could you fold, in half, a piece of paper." They folded the paper end over end, reducing the footprint of the paper by half each time. Each fold made the paper twice as thick therefore reducing its pliability and eventually resulting in a wad of paper that is unfoldable.

I don't know about the KRZR, but the RAZR V3m required a driver install on XP, charged after the driver was automatically installed in Vista, and charged out of the box on Ubuntu 8.04 (kernel module included in destro?).

It has a port shaped like a USB mini, but gets its power from a non-standard pin.

This is slashdot.

There are trolls.

Same as it ever was.

um... lithium for one?

They went all bibelty over it. I look out and all I see is more space.
