Shooter McGavin: You're in big trouble though, pal. I eat pieces of shit like you for breakfast!
Happy Gilmore: [laughing] You eat pieces of shit for breakfast?

You'd be surprised how often people ask that question about hearing aids. I can't speak for the OP but personally I picked up a radio station ONCE in my life while wearing hearing aids. They were the analog kind that are completely behind the ear... not a cochlear implant. Anyhow I was within a few hundred feet of the radio tower as I was playing in the park nearby. Could only pick it up near the edge of the park while standing on a dirt hill.

I think statistically you'll find more people who claim to have picked up radio on their fillings.

Maybe someone who knows this stuff can chime in. I've heard it said that since the Mayan calendar had no leap year it loses a day every 4 years. So if you add up all the missing leap years the end of the world would have came around the middle of 2011.

Others claim this is incorrect. Which is it?

the genocides that came afterwards should play a stronger role in history courses

Let's not forget the genocides that occurred BEFORE the holocaust as well. After all it was the Armenian genocide that convinced Hitler the world simply wouldn't care if he killed millions of Jews.

Thanks for the tip. Now to hide an nurses program source in a makefile and laugh while everyone is wondering how hello.c is doing all that stuff.

The prank potential of -D is unbounded... not to mention backdoor hiding...

that has been recorded on any tangible medium.

Then digital information is not copyrightable? That looks like a pretty big hole.

Those of us who worked and actually innovated in VR in the late 80s and early 90s have always been a little worried about Worlds, as they liked to run off to the patent office with all the ideas the collected from the rest of us. All of their patent claims existed in other products - even their first patents were an attempt to claim basic VR tech shown several years before by several groups, including the one I worked with (OnLive Traveler). There is plenty of prior art to invalidate these patents, but in our glorious patent system it will cost millions to do so. And like SCO, their legal zombie remains keep trying to extend old claims and collect something for the little invalid patent portfolio that was passed on when they shut down. The software patent apocalypse continues....

Want to fix it? Write to the movie studios and tell them that this is why they're not getting any of your money.

Good luck with that. I'm pretty sure they're trying to kill netflix not get them more subscribers.

I have a buddy with this huge gap right in the middle of his upper front teeth. Other than that he has perfect teeth. Years ago he went in to get a small gap closed and the idiot dentist actually spread the gap wider instead. I don't know how he couldn't tell it was going the wrong way while it was happening. After it was done apparently all the rest of his teeth were scooted by it and closing it now is not a simple procedure so he just left it. HUGE GAP for no reason.

If racism was about color, then Africa would be united.

And Europe...

And Asia...

And the Middle East...

South America...
