This is what 11 KV does.

Should've put a pedal to it instead of a hand crank, so I can rotate it while I sit comfortably and drink my coffee.

I found some of those shots quite unreal too. HDR is supposed to make things look more like the human eye would see them, but I think this camera defeats the purpose. There's maybe too much range there for it to be realistic.

Pffft. Combine this with planking. That's when you have crazy.

Install the Addon Compatibility Reporter extension from Mozilla ([addons.mozilla.org] It disables all checks and has, so far, worked across several versions of FF for me.

You could always say, as Rumsfeld did, that absence of evidence is not evidence of absence. I hardly think this would prevent the US and/or Israel from invading Iran, were they to decide to do it. There are other reasons they won't do it of course.

Is carpet cleaner ok if I'm bald?

Looks like he's been playing Age of Empires.

No love for Linux :-(

You can add the init line to /etc/default/grub as damis648 said. That way it won't go away with a kernel upgrade. You can add it to either GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX (in which case it will appear in all linux boot options) or GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT (in which case it will appear only in the default linux boot option).

To open multiple instances, you can right-click on the icon and select "Open a new window". Works for Firefox, so perhaps it would work for Chrome as well.

That's the first thing that came to my mind !

For software companies, copyright laws and closed source code offer better protection than patent laws. Take gaming companies for example. You don't see too many patents coming from them, but they do make their millions. Among others, Google has maintained a very small patent portfolio, and in general eschews patents.…

On Linux, you can try Axel ([axel.alioth.debian.org] ) which, unlike wget, will spawn multiple threads. Bear in mind that some sites will block you if you try that (I haven't tried to download this yet, so I can't say if NASA is one of those sites).

One very good practice is to keep the "/" and "/home" on separate partitions. That way you can reinstall the OS or install another flavour of Linux without losing your data.

@Kleptomaniac: Actually I did, but I added it after the link by mistake :-(.

@justS: As an ex-smoker with many friends who are still smokers, I resent that comparison ! Most smokers I know won't even smoke in the presence of people who don't like it.

@PrairieMoon: Any suggestions for us late-twenties folks?
