I turned up late for checkin on a budget flight once. No bags, no boarding pass, a couple of minutes after the deadline for checking in. If I'd printed the pass at home it would have been fine, but I was stupid. Went to the desk, was very polite, they ummed-and-arred for a while, phoned through to check with someone that I'd have time to board, and eventually printed my boarding pass. Once I passed security I saw the plane was delayed by 2 hours.

Amazon has deals with lots of network operators around the world, giving Kindles download access on their networks. I'd happily live with gimmicky 3D if I could check my emails for free without hunting down airport wifi.

I'm crap at redaction. And formatting.

Yes, quite right. Let's have something a bit more modern, shall we?

"An innocent man was viciously beaten and then burned to death by vigilante neighbours who wrongly believed rumours that he was a paedophile."

I was about to mod this down, but I thought it would be better to clarify instead. Nobody was "kicked out". The PyCon organisers decided no action would be taken.

Good job, people with mod points.

Why, for the love of all that is holy, is this not +5 funny?

Those are usually emulated ISA slots that plug into the PCI bus. They're not actually compatible with a huge number of PCI cards as they buffer commands before translating between buses, breaking anything that needs very low latency.

Ah, sorry, the new commenting system still confuses me after years, I didn't see the parent to your comment, only the grandparent.
