Does the connectivity drop sometimes? Does it become just a bit of plastic when that happens or does it still do something? Have you tested it outside a city?

In terms of Manchester's site being more "in your face" - it definitely captures the Mancurian mentality this way. But then again Gateshead is near Newcastle so its hard to argue...

Slightly ignorant question: What is the technical argument against getting rid of any form of syntax for domains and simply allowing any ASCII string? Or even any UTF-8 string?

OK well fair enough but this is another thing I don't understand, maybe its cause I live in central europe but why the heck would you pay someone to recycle something? I gathered all my old hardware (~10 desktops) and sold it for scrap, the

Its even more sad since its not that expensive at all to just run `dd if=/dev/urandom of=/dev/sda1` on 170 computers, thats what, a days worth of work for one skilled sysadmin?

This is pretty scary stuff, I mean fuck, every time I see a story like that I can't help but be amazed at how incredibly insecure the services of credit card companies are, and how hypocritically they behave at every single step about secur

You might be right, it would make sense. Thank gods for those tills anyway, I dont know what I would do with my change without them. edit: challenge: find a way to guess balances of each coin nominal in the machine by paying with specific c

If the reason to use most coins is to get rid of change you'd better just put all coins in self service tesco checkout and let the till give out change in minimum amount of coins automatically. (yes I know thats not the point)

It's not only yours and mine favorite - its also a favorite of Asimov himself. Here is what he written about The Last Question in the 1973 release of "The Best of Isaac Asimov": ‘The Last Question’ is my personal favorite, the one story I m

Apparently the joke is lost on HN readers, The Daily Mash is a parody site, it parodies news sites (specifically tabliod ones in UK, its kind of like The Onion). You would not expect a clear form from them - In fact, whether intentional o
