Opera on ios has kept my classic layout intact. Mostly...

"Does anyone know what happens if you drop the
One Ring down a sink?"

OK, I'll bite. The One Ring (go from the print version here...) seems to follow the same rules detailed in Zalazny's "chronicles of amber" series so it would resize itself (definitely among its powers) and shift its surroundings until it can traverse the sewer lines and be found by its next victim on the path back to Sauron (also within its powers). Or it might just be caught in the u-pipe under the sink if it likes its owner.

Bird strikes are actually rather common on civilian flights.

Civilian airliners are designed for withstanding all forces by birdstrike at standard cruise speed at sea level(example on the linked page works out to 16 tons of force on a windshield) where military fighters have varying ratings and a MUCH larger max airspeed (remember Kinetic Energy = mass * velocity^2, velocity is the main contributor to KE) along with weight restrictions to maintain accelleration curves and manoeuverability. Most fighter canopies can withstand standard takeoff and landing speeds though.

At near-mach speeds embedded metal becomes shrapnel.

My win8 laptop crashes hard with a kernal_security_check_failure when I plug in *any* mouse while it's running. Trade ya!

Maybe in freefall...

Automating the process would be handy, but not revolutionary. Automating it at the system level makes more sense to me but i'm just a power user.

For PC and laptop, yes I can.

Overclocking utilities can also underclock and near the lower stability threshold of graphics frequency, I often do see a few pixels out of whack. Not enough to crash, but artifacts definitely appear. A mhz or 2 higher clock clears them up though.

I have a dumb phone so reclocking it isn't necessary.

Dax asked Worf about the smooth foreheads in DS9 the trouble with tribbles revisit. He said,iirc, "I'd rather not talk about it."

Haven't seen it since original air so i might be wrong.

They may work in the US but try in my country and you don't get to even see that they exist.

You didn't put the laser cufflinks on a cufflink-wearing shark for starters.

When thermodynamics is wrong, you've missed something.

The Gospel according to Ringo: Groovy!

I sure as hell... I mean, ordinary users, not I of course, but normal users certainly DO fsck up my seldom-used passwords... I mean their seldom... DAMMIT!

I'm constantly surprised when i check CSM and find neutral, factual stories rather than the partisan propeganda i read in most places. Not what i'd expect-but i still prefer /. and it's user-submitted aggregation of troll-fodder!
