WEll, having owned an electric vehicle, I thought they were going to talk about the best and worst *types* of places to drive them i.e. highways vs city - short hops vs loong trips,.. Of course chargers are now more common, and mine being a bike was able to plug into house current.. but when you're stuck out in the middle of the highway there's not a lot of outlets available, tho..

Well, they could have saved a lot of money simply by having the effects studio make the image of the distant galaxy get smaller the closer you get.. too boring?

Or take it up with whatever alien species thought it was such a good idea to bioengineer humans by using Chimpanzee DNA as starter material. Chimps are miserable violent species that'll just as readily kill you and eat you raw, than befriend you. And, as seems likely, they added alien dna to chimp's, we lost all the natural bacterial and viral resistance, and physical strength inherent in terran species, in order to develop attributes suitable for interplanetary travel. And then they leave us earthbound. Great..

Sorry about the spooling arrears. Eye is bline. No, seriously, I have a progressive co-oedination issue. It makes it really hard to both type and spell at any rate faster than 15 cpm. Getting old sux.

We were always further down that path than America ever was. For most of our history we have noy even had a constitutionand our bill of "rights" laughably put, was written in the 1700s by the British, who we of course know care so vewry much about privacy and rights themselves, and kings in the 1700 even less so...Any PM could invoke martial law at any time for any reason throughout our history as Trudeau did in 1970 and we all did during the world wars, doing to the *canadian born* Japanese precisely what the Nazis did to the Jews. Only difference is we didn't gas them after stealing all their money and property, and then placing them in ghettos, just deported them after stealing all their money and property, and then placing them in ghettos.I grew up in a Canadian border citynext to some of the highest black concentrations in America, yet I never even saw a single African or JAmaican born or even Canadian born Black person for the first 20 years of my life. Apparently the human rights violations were so incredibly severe and obnoxious here that they actually were all "run out of town". A feat even the KKK was unable to accomplish in the south. We have had terrible police abuses here, right up until today, where we are still in the national news for corrupt or even perverted cops using their badges to get drugs sex and other favors. Rights here mean nothing. The ONLY advantage here has been internet freedom, freedom from some of the more heavy handed DMCA type scams by the majors, until Harper caved in and gave them even more than they asked for. A massive citizens protest consisting of MILLIONS of people didn't even get into the NEWS, owned as it is by only a couple of orgganizations. Same with all our broadcasting. A couple of controllers. Three ISPs, each with their own guaranteed territory to preventy ompetition. No waay to hold any elected official accountable. Hell, they can have an alcohol fuelled accident across the border, and even if they hold one of the top 20 jobs, all they have to do is say "I'm sorry I won't do it again" and no more is said about it.. If anyone dares complain they find their funding withdrawn. Can't be sure that's why the same gov't put M.A.D.D. out of theur officves the next year after. Just coincidence. right? No, friends, we already have a strong history here. no neew to follow after America's example. Only Grear Britain could possibly, in msny ways, equal, and even surpass us, since, after all, they were our source of inspiration as to how to defeat these peculiar thinking settlers in the new world.. Against King and Country and "individual" civil libertes? Migod.It's not even..well, rather.. er.. done. One shouldn't contemplate such things.. Rather a good snifter of triple aged Brandy, and reflections on Good King John's legacy ;-)

Silly willy.. it's obvious. We let the gov't use their spy sattelites, confirmed bu several gov't funded telescopes and other surveillance devices, io then supply us with guaranteed legitimate evidence that a real invasion is occurring. If we have any doubt we can always seek the unbiased opinion of anyone at NASA or other heavily militarily funded organizations to give us the truth.

It's not just the alcohol. It's the Pubs. The lowering of inhibitions. The wine associations and brewer's organizations, In fact, all the things that are known to extend life expectancy. for just sttart

Mobile broadband is much easier for the spooks to tap into. Probably why.

You have your facts right? Perhaps in Slovenia and parts of Turkey the access was bad, but Europe was always at least staying with the curve. Same with Canada, except we were first to have nationwide cable. Because the infrastructure was already in place. We had cable TV by the mid 70s everywhere. The last people I ever heard complain about crappy dial-up were Americans..

And the ultra wealthy have a new way to reverse aging so they can stay young and stupid forever..

Indeed. Can you really have *too much* RAM? Seriously?

Why not Meece?

The wheel is set back from where the buttons traditionally are, so they sit directly under the first finger joint, and clicking a wheel also requires a great deal more force applied than a mouse button -understandably, since otherwise scrolling would be near impossible. I personally am happy with one, but I've noticed most, if not all, of the responses here have been in the order of "why do you need it anyways?" What's wrong with just helping the guy out? He wants a 3 button mouse, so help him find one. Sadly, I'm pretty sure that since they haven't made them for years, they probably don't make them with laser tracking.

I don't see what kind of "dirty" secret it is. Those same types of audiophiles work for every supercar manufacturer including Ferrari, Koenigsegg, McLaren etc, which ALL have an extensive amount of tweaking to get the "right" sound out of the engine, including every trick in the book...

I thought it said "Steampunk" broadcasting... ;-(
