Hooning a Cadillac in a Ford plant's parking lot. Classy.

@ndonahue: It's exactly the same concept, but simpler- normal variable-sweep aircraft have two pivot points (one for each wing), while this has only a single pivot.

@hostile-17: With its current expenses and its current cash reserves, Apple could continue operating for almost a century without selling another product.

Sigh. I have a depressed friend. I see a great commonality of themes between my friend's thoughts and this letter.

A Harrier hovering at an air show was, without a doubt, the loudest thing I've ever experienced.

@cjtyler72: That's why I wonder if the ratio of muscle mass to the rest of the body is involved in this. Women who are less likely to be cold, I've observed (and there are exceptions to this, too, of course) are some of the more, shall we say, physically fit.

@Wontendwell: I don't mean having a lower-than-average body temperature is a women thing, I mean being "always cold" is a woman thing.

@HunterK916: I think that's just a woman thing, or maybe a bodyfat:muscle ratio thing.

@Incoherent: Your car has turn signals, even if you don't use them. It also has the contour lights the test is describing, although we different names for them here.

It's still a planet to me, dammit!

@aja175: Agreed, the 24 hour turnaround time is pure fantasy.

Just my sister. Mom and dad (who don't have accounts, anyway) are off-limits.

@E rac: Now, that's not true at all. Nowhere in the constitution does it say "this applies only to citizens." In fact, we have plenty of legal precedent stating otherwise. If he were brought here for prosecution, he would have the same rights as a citizen.

@bwj109_s: They would probably use Section 793 of the Espionage Act:

I'm in love with the design. No gloss anywhere, no stupid patterns, no logos... take my money, Google. Please.

@izikavazo: TOS tacked serious moral issues like racism and war, and did so at a time when TV shows just didn't do that. To get past the censors, it had to pack in more cheese than a Domino's Wisconsin 6 pizza.

Hard to say. Probably Trek.

@Felix26591: You misunderstand. What I mean is, OpenCL's usefulness is drastically overstated by its fans. It isn't going to significantly accelerate anything, particularly on a very very weak GPU like the Macbook has.

SD card slot with a little door over it? Unlike on a computer, the SD card can't stick halfway out here. It would have to go all the way in, which means it would need an eject button, and you know how Apple likes to hide things.
