Didn't Futurama already do this, or something close to it?

As a back-end guy, whatever they use that lets me use a clean, well-defined API is fine in my book. They can bloat it up as much as they like as long as I don't have to see a single line of HTML, CSS or JavaScript. JSON is bad enough.

I bet sewer sludge would be even cheaper, but that practice was banned for a reason. I fail to see how iron oxide is much better.

Judging from the very harsh sentences masters who are caught (let alone brag about) dumping waste overboard, you'd rather think there's a conspiracy in favour of rather than against these jackasses.

Funny, but the subtitles are obviously fake.

Since those things are already so riddled with DRM, why not simply make the internal builds phone home to an activation server that only allows IPs assigned to Microsoft?

Can't speak for BMW keys, but every VAG key I've had has been horribly flimsy. Don't use it to open bottles or you'll be locked out of your car.

I can understand why the big banks are reluctant to re-write the big systems now that they have painted themselves so far into the corner, but what I don't understand is why they seemed so disinterested in the massive advances that wer

In a sane world wiping liquids off of smooth, hard surfaces would be the same domain whether the material under whatever the wiper is attached to is in the liquid, solid or gaseous phase.

It didn't make Unix a success, it made Unix a punch-card-and-tape batch processing simulator in the same way the Mac was a paper pushing simulator. What made Unix a success is a great mystery to me. Presumably it was the ability to run

Never been a Windows user or programmer, but like you I've heard they do quite a lot of clever stuff under the hood. Probably a lot of VMS heritage, another system I've never had a chance to use but heard good things about. But ev

One of the worst design decisions of Unix to fundamentally separate the source from the binaries. And Debian and those of their ilk had to make it worse with that -dev package nonsense.

I've noticed that whenever I've been to France. I learned French in school, and I notice there's an age cut-off when I can no longer understand what people are saying. A small consolation is that the people who no longer spea

I can't even remember ever being able to seek in a Windows Media file without breaking the entire playback. Never had any problems like that with QuickTime.

I can concur. The Swedes have turned into an absolute disgrace. Constant late-coming, talking and other distracting behaviour. They have become a nation of low moral fibre, pure and simple. I say become, because I refuse to believe this was

>dieing Just curious, this is the second time I see this today. Is this a mistake, or is it a regional alternate form from somewhere?

There is nothing new about the technology or the business model. Maybe it's an unusual one for Americans, but for everyone else, it's not.

You must have been swimming in money. College students, throwing entire computers away in the 1980s.

If freedom is an issue, ThinkPad X60 would be the only viable option. If not, a high end MacBook or ThinkPad depending on what you like.

I'd be extremely impressed with a somewhat general AI at the insect or nematode level, let alone human.

All this chasing from one notepad clone to the next is such a waste of time. Pro tip: it's a dead end if you want a sane computing environment.

Another curiosity with Sweden is that priority to the right has been codified in law since the switch to right-hand traffic, but has never actually been practised by motorists. Instead they have a bunch of unwieldy and dangerous ad hoc rule

Just compressing the images into an archive, if not encrypting them, is enough to evade such a filter. There are a lot more legitimate uses for a public repository of CP hashes along with free software for verifying them locally. Not only e
