You don't mention what you find unusual about that price, is there anything obviously wrong with it?

> Google Documents service has already been restored for some users, and we expect a resolution for all users in the near future. Please note this time frame is an estimate and may change. So many words for "we're still working on it."

I had to deal with this a while ago and I found out (sorry, but I don't have a reference handy) that underscores are prohibited in the second level domain (example.com), but are ok in any further levels (šķaudiens.example.com). Basically su

I was indeed surprised by those numbers, thanks for explaining.

I believe you're even more of an outlier than people with javascript disabled.

Because it's likely to be profitable. Countless companies are doing something with streaming video and there are enough light and medium-weights in this space that are likely to choose to pay off the trolls instead of going to court.

If the new headphones still have the remote then I don't see the problem identifying which headphone is which.

Yes, and this allows you to use an analog stick and the buttons at the same time, unlike here.

First there were separate browser windows for each page, then there were tabs inside a single window, and now we have tabs within tabs. I believe this is one grouping too many and personally I'm fine with just dragging tabs between Chrome w

How would that be enforced for a download-only product? Also, there is another famous swedish operation which still hasn't been shut down despite enormous efforts by US firms. edit: ok, any app store downloads probably could be shut down.

Interesting, too bad the power supplies could not be controlled in their setup, as a wonky power supply can unleash all kinds of gremlins that look like failures in components down the line.

A mode switch as important as this should be very visible. An idea: put a two-color led under every indicator light and switch to the other color when the plane falls into alternate law. This should make it sufficiently clear that something

What does it matter if the answer cannot be known? If the question cannot be answered than "spending a significant amount of time deciding" is just waste.

Number 8 is overrated, it requires physical access to the password and is less viable than any pure online attack. See http://www.schneier.com/blog/archives/2005/06/write_down_you...
