Yup, those pix are exactly what it was like. I too was up at the crack and wondered what that weird orange light was outside. it was only when i when upstairs to look out the windows (the downstairs window faces our neighbours wall (about 3m away) that i was totally amazed.

i ride a motorbike into the city each day from the hills district (about 30kms) and it was horrible, there was red dust everywhere. still tho' at about 0645 the traffic wasnt so bad, but my bike looked like i took it to the outback when i got to work.

Because they accidentally the whole thing?

suspend and hibernate also work well for me on my lappy.

while the nvidia driver does work, i have screen refresh problems in a CLI with compiz. I turn compiz off and no more problem!

good call. i just spent 6 years living in NL, for three of those as a motorcycle rider. In all that time there were _two_ instances of people deliberately attempting to cut me off. Pretty much as a bike rider, i thought people were more considerate on the road, and their situational awareness very good (compared to the ignorant drivers here in .com.au). People would routinely look in their mirrors and actually move out of the way if i was lane splitting (which is legal in NL provided you are

if only we could become better at this ourselves, i'm sure road rage and all that crap would become less.

I also spent a bit of time on the autobahns in germany ans was amazed at how considerate people were. i expected people to be going as fast as they could. it turned out that about 160km/h was an average speed, with the occassional car cruzing by at (probably) > 200km/h. sadly i didnt have a bike at the time

I've had my N95 8GB for over a year which does exactly this (except its 8Gb, not 13-32gb). The tech is there, you just gotta "invest".

Of course its not linux (Symbian S60 infact), and you really, really dont want to copy a HD movie over BT ;-) (YMMV)

Is this that jitter bug i've been hearing about?

emphasis mine. probably the single handiest thing this disk has to offer!

(s)he doesnt know the movie is crap before (s)he sees it?

using a dictionary attack?!

Their parents?!

i know i'm a bit late in this thread, but YES! as an aussie, i'm pretty happy about this.

perhaps you should try http://www.abc.net.au/triplej/. its a radio station that doesnt play too much (any?) of the top 40, no commercials, and streams over t3h n3tz0rz. while i'm out of their demographic at 37, and dont like all the music, i love the fact there is "no fricken ads"

I'd love an alcohol additive that would lighten people up and realise there are jokes in the world and that sometimes un PC stuff can be funny.
