The basement fridge probably vibrates more than the kitchen one. And maybe isn't as cold.
The worse a beer is, the colder you should serve it.

Ok, I'm going to stop replying to myself soon. It used to be brewed in north London between 1936 and the mid 2000's. And I agree with AC above about its "real" beer credentials being a little dubious now.
Compared to home brew stout, Guinness is like drinking water. A friend and expert home brewer made a batch of stout once. I had a glass at his place, then went to the pub and had a pint of Guinness. I literally could not taste it.
Magnets... how do they work?
Bitches don't know.
GDP = Consumption + Governmentspending + eXport - iMport
Exports and imports can both be many multiples of your GDP as long as they cancel themselves out. This is very common in small, open economies that are heavily reliant on trade.
Thank you!
You are aware, of course, that the US does a significant amount of international trade... Right? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/I...
Largest countries by international trade:
1 - China (largest overall, 43% of GDP)
2 - USA (second largest overall, 23% of GDP)
3 - Germany (71% of GDP)
4 - Japan (31.6% of GDP)
5 - Netherlands (147% of GDP)
No one in the US is saying "We don't need the world!". We import nearly 20% of our food, for God's sake!
(http://www.ers.usda.gov/topics/international-markets-trade/us-agricultural-trade/import-share-of-consumption.aspx)
How can Netherlands get more than 100% of its GDP from trade? You may as well say that income from trade accounts for 1.47x its GDP which makes it clear how absurd the statement is.
There's a secret blacklist in the UK called Cleanfeed - it's supposed to be for child porn, but the contents of the list is a closely guarded secret, and it's already known from an incident where Wikipedia was briefly blocked by mistake that many ISPs will spoof a 404 message rather than reveal the reason for the block, so it's impossible to say how many non-child-porn pages are blocked.
Given the porno laws in the UK the very *words* in the blacklist would probably make the list itself child porn.
So thats why they can't show you the blacklist; they'd be distributing child porn!
And get new ones. What's so difficult about that?
Well, if a crime had been committed then the officers involved would be guilty of destruction of evidence. I should think that would be enough reason to not only fire them but possibly send them to jail.
Guardians of Peace (GOP) [...] are now threatening to harm the families of Sony employees.
You keep using that word. I don't think it means what you think it means.
In the context of Islam, as in 'Islam is a religion of peace', the word 'peace' means 'not struggling against the will of Allah'.
So no, it probably doesn't mean what most people (native speakers of English) think it means.
That's only because Solaris is expensive. (As is the sun/oracle hardware if you're running it on that). Otherwise, its pretty damn stable even if you walk over and pull the power cords
(We have 7 Solaris boxes from the 1u pizza box to the M5000 running)
To have 'done pretty well' it would have to have captured market share.
For websites, probably the easiest usage to quantify, its less than 0.1%
http://w3techs.com/technologie...
Thats not less than 1%, thats less that zero point one percent.
Did pretty well didn't it.
Any idea the market share in other applications, say database servers for example?
What are you talking about, no it doesn't. You're literally saying that with no idea what you're talking about. It doesn't kill anything. It's a modern init system for a modern os. don't be silly. It's a ridiculous idea that startup scripts should be written in SHELL. Solaris went away from it and did pretty well. OS X went away from it and did pretty well. FreeBSD wants to go away from it.
When you say Solaris 'did pretty well', what do you mean by that? It doesn't seem to be doing at all well in terms of popularity in the data center. Same with OSX, its use in the data center is MINIMAL.
The other half...hardware upgrades and a real life.
Arguing "real life" with a hardcore gamer is like arguing the cost of gas with a NASCAR driver. As if they actually give a shit.
If wasting time was any type of real concern, the game would stay in the box and on the store shelf.
IIRC NASCAR uses ethanol for fuel? (so that the flames are invisible and don't frighten the spectators).
Er, don't frighten the spectators?
Because otherwise, a NASCAR race is as quiet and peaceful as a librarians office in the spring?
Points for your accuracy here, but damn if that's not the most pointless reason to use ethanol I've ever heard.
Apparently Americans are afraid of flames... Seriously, this is the reason I read about when I found out that they used ethanol for fuel. People just see a car crash, they don't see the "omg the humanity!!!" flames.
The problem is that the rescue crews also can't see the flames, which increases the risk for them. You might see a NASCAR driver leaping out of his car and rolling around on the ground. Hes on fire but the flames are invisible!
It can be easily argued that CS requires a different style of play than CoD or BF. If it's not your thing then it's not your thing but to act like all shooters are the same game isn't insightful.
It can be easily argued that Canadian football requires a different style of play than American football. If it's not your thing then it's not your thing but to act like all football is the same game isn't insightful.
Actually to people who aren't all wrapped up in it it really IS the same game.

I certainly hope that's sarcasm.
Its both sarcasm and the reality of how government perceive their needs
I was in China last month, our hotel had CNN. As soon as it reached the segment about Hong Kong, the channel just blacked out. About 10 minutes later it came back on as if nothing happened.
Why be scared of external opinions? You do not see that as censorship? Suppressing history is censorship.
You are basically calling the Chinese populace a bunch of idiots who would not know how to make decisions for themselves.

the rioters in other cities also got the idea from news media.
News media and social networking blackout on the riots when they started would likely have stopped the riots happening in the other cities. Because the democratic UK had little taste for such media control the situation got very out of hand. Thats part and parcel of being a democracy eh.
