Is Netcraft still around?!

Can you make this mandatory for the people running for office first?

Stopped reading right there :P

Hell, I used to do that with Infocom games back in the DOS days, because every command would hit the floppy to return the appropriate response.

Solution: RAM disk the same size as the floppy (320K), copy the whole disk to RAM to play, save games to the B: floppy. Game actions were stupidly fast for the most part.

When I grew up in Western Canada, we had like an hour to eat lunch at school. So we took our time and then ran around outside for 20-30 minutes.

A year I moved to the Eastern US and we had 20 minutes to eat lunch, and then we had to go immediately back to class, with no chance of leaving the school.

Either way I had a packed lunch from home, but I hated having to wolf it all down with no time to relax.

It's mostly bullshit pseudo-science and fuzzy-headed intellectualism.

Essentially "Nerd church" for the Gladwell crowd. The strict format and time limits per slide do not encourage actual learning.

I have an old Intel Mac with a Broadcom HD decoder chip in place of the WiFi card, running XBMC with Crystal HD. Works like a charm.

Which came first, Big Egg or Big Chicken?

Apple's always been a software company. They just happen to require hardware dongles, which they also sell :P

Or just don't buy them. I stopped eating a lot of crap like chips, etc. just by not buying them in the first place. If I want something crunch, nuts, carrots, or celery will do just fine.

He then got forty cavities.

How many large power plants built since the 60's have been on-budget? 1st world only need apply, please.

Yeah, everybody should go get a Masters degree and go be a programmer, surely these kinds of jobs will NEVER see wage depression as the market is filled with workers of the same skill set!
