And here I thought that from what I've heard so far that Earth had possibly some dust or at most some gravel at its L4 and L5 points. This discovery of a sizable asteroid there makes the Earth's L4/L5 points much more interesting. Hopefully there is even more to be found!
Bought the printer, an HP DeskJet 6980, about three years ago and its admin pages says it has printed 183 pages which seems fairly reasonable given my usage pattern of it.
It is now on its third black ink cartridge, and second colour ink cartridge. I've had at least one black cartridge dry up before it was used up.
Given the cartridge cost of 299 SEK for black and 399 SEK for colour, and excluding the cartridges that came with the printer, the post-printer-purchase supply cost per page so far ends up being 5.45 SEK / page, which is about 0.86 USD per page. Not exactly dirt cheap.
I haven't owned a television receiving unit for about five years, and before that it was several years when I only turned the TV on about once-twice per month.
I find the concept of a television schedule to be archaic. Why should I adapt my media consumption during my own free time to a fixed schedule when I could just watch things whenever, where ever, I want through the powers of the 'net instead?
Both at work and at home I have a stationary computer with two displays, and a laptop along them.
In both cases the center display is a 24" 1920x1200, and to the right is a smaller one (at home a 19" 1280x1024, at work a 19" 1440x900).
To the left is the laptop. At work a 15" 1680x1050. At home a 9" 1024x600 when I don't have the work laptop at home.
Either give all efficiency measurements in joules/meter (or foot-pound force/mile or megajoules/kilometer or something), or separate the figures for when the vehicle is running on pure electricity (J/m would work for that) and when the vehicle is running exclusively with the fuel-consumpting engine (traditional MPG or liter/100km would work, or maybe J/m for this too).
Jumbling it all into a single quasi-MPG is just smoke and mirrors to make the figures look good.
Well, you can write both those symbols here, it just takes some extra, shouldn't-be-needed-in-this-century, effort to make it happen.

I just store anything saveworthy on the server at home. That way the "client" computers (my main "work"station/gamestation and laptops) contain only relatively expendable data. And if I need to access the stuff from some other location I just SSH into the box.
And backups are handled from the server manually occasionally to an external USB drive. I know, I need to improve on that part.
The 7.1% the Pirate Party got gives them one seat. See http://www.val.se/val/ep2009/valnatt/rike/index.html. It is incredibly unlikely that they'd get another one. Nearly all of the advance votes have already been counted.
The advance votes get sent to the polling station where one would have normally voted on and are counted as part of the normal counting process. See http://www.val.se/in_english/2009_ep_election/index.html. Those advance votes that aren't counted yet are those advance votes that were placed on Sunday, which are relatively few given Sunday was the ordinary election day.
Anyhow the final count will be available on Wednesday.
