They've made sure it's even more expensive to upgrade the new Mac Pro than the last one. If you have more money than sense, then this is the computer for you.

People implementing JavaScript engines. Among many other. You would instantly lament if every bit of machine code deployed in the world were suddenly to reimplement itself in your beloved JavaScript.

Well put.

These pills may be beneficial for people who for one or other reasons are living on meagre diets for prolonged periods. A richly varied intake of fresh vegetables will cover all your needs for micronutrients, vitamin pills will not.

shit.

Employers don't care about your education or your skills, they care about the modern school which offers nearly ritualistic schooling, and that you have it on paper.

Amazing! Congratulations to China, the whole world is proud of you! You will be at the forefront of space exploration, and if there is anyone who can establish a permanent base on the moon it is you. The 21st century belongs to China, no doubt!

I regularly replace misspelled "aluminum" with the correct "aluminium" whenever I see it in an article, but backwards people just revert my changes.

Is there no standard in place by which a website can communicate that it only wishes to be trawled for indexing once per hour, once per day, or such? I can imagine Google f.ex trawls the same website dozens of times per day.

Great news. U.S Internet services are not safe nor secure and can't be trusted anymore. If you are concerned about your business and attracting more customers then you will do well in buying European or Asian services from now on.

I still have an old ball-mouse that's coming up on 22 years and still working. It was built to last. The Logitech optical mice I use these days usually fail after a year or two; they are obviously and intentionally made as consumption items so the manufacturer can get a steady income.

750 MB usage currently. Only running AdBlock, and I have 2 tabs from Slashdot open, so I think it is still very much a current issue.

Does it use less than 250 MB of RAM while idling with no windows open, and less than 1 GB of RAM after 30 minutes of browsing? When it does, I'll get excited.

You're an idiot. Learn to interpret, and don't put words in my mouth to create an opportunity to assert yourself like this. The essence of my post is that if you strive to reduce the presence of dangerous synthetic chemicals in your body then you will significantly reduce the chances that you contract "out-of-control cancer".

Cancer doesn't just happen. If you can, avoid all the synthetic chemicals you get in your system from your food and environment. Avoid processed foods, and those full of food colorings, sweeteners, preservatives, and others. Get rid of all the plastics from your kitchen, and if you can, avoid food that comes in plastic containers, especially wet foods with extreme shelf life that sit and soak in the plastic container for months before being consumed. Put more fat, protein and fiber in your diet and get rid of the carb. Avoid the typical western high-carb diet which is rocket fuel for cancer cells.
