I'm no expert on goldmines, but I think you need the shaft going into the goldmine, to be able to access said goldmine - your code results in logistical problems for the wife.

I suspect the rate of defecation, and the required sheets, might be influenced by the amount of water (and other liquids) you consume, as well as your ability to properly cook chicken.

Ever 3rd (ca) thing I hear on Spotify is an ad for Spotify Premium
Ever 5-6 minutes on DI, I get an ad
On Sony's music-video service I got 2 ads per song (Often the same twice)
On YouTube I get a video-ad per video, easily as long as the video I'm watching in case of short "funny" vids (I've clocked youtube video-ads up to 3 minutes long)
On Comedy Central, watching Daily Show and Colbert Report I get (got?) 1-3 video-ads per ca 6-minute segment

The notion that stripping this could result in 25% reduction seems... high, but plausible, especially if the study went for ad-heavy traffic (it was funded by AdBlock Plus)

Then on text/image sites, you get large anim-GIFs, multiple sizable javascripts, and flash elements, that together can take up more than half the data transferred... so averaging 25% becomes likely I think.

I've seen it repeatedly for some days now on CNN, or you no longer consider that news?

Don't know Jolla's reasoning for not going to the US, but I think that if I was making cellphones outside of Android/Windows, I'd avoid that market due to American's irrational passion for litigations.

You're missing the bits about the Greek PM's wife threatened to "turn off the hot water", if he agreed to anything sensible.

Qt5 would abstract the bits that are platform specific, while still allowing low-level control where desired.
Unless there is some specific reason not to use Qt, it would seem to match his requirements nicely.

I've seen pictures of Linus, and I've seen HBO ... Not sure I'd enjoy the intersection of Linus Torvalds and Gratuitous Boobs.

I've banned customers(!) from conference-calls on projects, due to them using Skype - my experience is that Skype is horrible.
That said, audio-quality on Google Talk is not exactly impressive either...t

I've tested this extensively in KSP - you can, in fact, just "slap an RTG" on probes quite trivially!

Stop verbing nouns!

Merchandizing being the place bands get their money, has been true for as long as I can remember - Tours and live-gigs are simply a way to bring the merchandize to the buyers.

On-Die systemd should make everything faster, better....

Dude - blood-flow!
Goes up in the left arm, down in the right one. If you try to draw on the left one, all you'll see is air being sucked into the veins!

Up next, remove all taxes on motorcycles, give away drivers-licenses and make organ-donation mandatory? That would solve the shortage-problem preeeetty quickly.
