Still, the headline remains poorly written. You read it and think Ford built an electric car in 68, and you go there to find out about it, why it flopped, how it ran, etc.

Oh man, those IRQ nightmares! Please don't mention those extended memory settings or I will go into my basement to look for my MEMMAKER notes on how to (maybe) get a game going...

I've been reading poetry ever since I read one by Cocteau that physically moved me. Yes, I felt it in my body, not only in my mind. Since then, I've read too many. Here are some of my favorites. Delve deep into the greats and then

You can hide your money, and then you can launder your money. I don't know much about bitcoin and about money laundering to know if it would make it any easier, or even harder. I do know, however, that if it makes it any easier, the

It means that in a sealed water resistance test thing, the watch, sitting there surrounded by water, will still function when subjected to, in the case of your watch, 3bar of pressure. That is without moving the watch, with the crown fully

You're right, the watch is pretty much a miniature iphone. About its sales, that I don't agree much. I'd bet it won't sell much, won't see widespread use like the iphone/ipad. In a venn diagram it would share t

The safeguards and the thoroughness of the trials are there for a reason. The necessary evil of it is that it takes time to be thorough, it takes time to be safe.

No. Windows 3.1 just looks 10,000 years old, but it's actually quite recent.

Hey, thanks for the reply. I'm planning on getting one by the next months, when a relative of mine will come visit from the U.S. Fortunately, I don't really use the function keys, maybe twice a week I'll hit one F-key that I

There's also "tereré", which is like "chimarrão", but it is infused and consumed with cold water instead of hot.

I've been wanting to buy a Kinesis for about 2 years now (can't find it in my country, expensive to buy and ship from overseas, among other things putting me off). I'm a heavy typist, mostly prose. Would you mind telling me y

No, he's not a remarkable example of civility. He's just a realistic example of a person who manages others. The thing is, like you pointed out, he does it in public.

The thing is, the major structural changes that brought more wealth and better living conditions to the poor really were made by Fernando Henrique Cardoso (I don't vote for PSDB, btw). What Lula did was mostly broaden the welfare spend

The idea that Brasília was designed to stop a popular revolution is a myth, just that. I lived there for close to a decade, and my mother was working in the government during its construction. At one point I tried to find any reference to t

c'mon man, put a link for that paper of yours. You know everyone here will be curious (well, at least some people will be, I'm sure).

Yeah, too bad, but the thing I wonder is, if it got built, what would they name the next, bigger, one.

Here in Brazil it's been a trend, more and more people going into engineering so that last year it was the undergraduate course with most applicants. And we have A LOT of law schools, probably more than any other country (no joke). Why

I still use my Alphasmart Dana. I'd use the Neo, but they never released a model with a localized keyboard for my country. They used to do it with the previous models, so I have a model 2000 and a 3000 with portuguese keyboards. I stil

Well, since software companies are so big and wealthy and seem world-dominating right now, people in this field tend to think of them as the greatest minds ever. I wonder where are all the Silicon Valley Nobel prizes, all the cure for disea

You're right. Most people in the U.S. prefer it. But that could be just from the crappy public transportation options, the crappy bike riding options, and from just growing up and living your whole life in a car oriented lifestyle. I&#
