Fuse? Who needs that when the entire house is wired with circuit breakers. Fast enough to save your life if you drop the hairdryer into the bathtub.
Most new houses have those, and then it doesn't matter if your outlets and plugs are old coat hangers.
Because you can whack your system partition and reinstall the OS, without touching the data on the other partition. Basics.
Uh, your mixing up sales tax and VAT.

1.1.1 -> 1.1.2 - bugfix only, no change in what the end-user sees.
1.1.1 -> 1.2.0 - new features, perhaps a button in the UI has moved. Still fully compatible with the previous version. Documents should be stored identically, network protocols unchanged.
1.1.1 -> 2.0.0 - major release, might very well break functionality, documents may have to be converted from previous versions, UI can change drastically.
In a straight line yes, but with any kind of turns on the road the bike gets owned.
I mean, I have a Mazda MX-5, pretty much the cheapest roadster you can get. It has 160 hp on 950 kg, and I've left a bike with 120 hp on 200 kg behind on a very squiggly road. Bikes don't handle. And with a car, if you lose grip you have the possibility of getting back control. Lose control with a bike, and you are an organ donor.
Not really, Porche does own most of VW stock.
> For my part, I wonder what the engineering expended on a Veyron could have produced if turned toward more widely applicable efforts.
But by building the Veyron, the engineers found problems that they wouldn't have found by building small hatchbacks. Ideas then are refined, and trickles down to normal roadcars.

Not in all countries. In some countries the light is turned on by flipping the switch down. Gets confusing for the first few weeks.
Try Tiananmen perhaps?

What about ferries? A hour long ferry ride would be the perfect use for a TV, but the satnav shuts itself down when the ferry leaves the port.
The local repair shop here uses a USB stick with one of each of most common files (word docs, movies, music, pictures) and uses that for testing.
No need to check My Documents for that.
Though, sometimes there isn't even a need to dig around... I used to do techsupport over phone, with remote desktop software. And there it was, in the middle of the desktop "gay sucking hot cock.mpg"...
Give RIAA time to lobby through some new laws. After that I'd rather get caugh with childporn than MP3's. What is 20 years getting assraped in prison compared to what RIAA wants to do to filesharers?
I'd say it's more like the mechanic would rip open the door or dashboard to find drugs, when he was supposed to replace the brakepads.
Dead guy in the trunk is like putting child porn as the desktop wallpaper.
Okay, so a friend suddenly gives you a large amount of money. Is it okay to accept it? Most probably yes.
But, what if he robbed a bank, and you knew it. Is it still okay to accept it? If he lies and says that he didn't rob the bank?
You didn't do anything wrong, and he lied to you, does these two facts make it okay to accept stolen money? No.
If someone does something wrong, it is also wrong for you to profit from that. You post to slashdot, you know for a fact that ISPs are lying, yet you cling on to the lie of unlimited bandwidth and try to shift all the responsibility to the ISP.
