whats a MiB ?

Is it the same as an MB ?

And why does it "exist", we need to know.

Cross

Surely replacing them with a cross is just hypocritical, since they are using one religious symbol in a commercial way instead of another.

Oh wait, religion and hypocrisy ..... etc ............

Slow

The speed of light does seem rather slow, cosmically speaking. I mean, compared with the distances etc such a slow thing as light seems, well, out of place somehow.

Perhaps soon we will discover a new "light" that runs at a faster speed, this will open up all sorts of comms and travel opprtunities, and have the happy by-product of driving the maths guys potless.

It is the duty of science to keep an open mind, you can't just say that somenting can not exist or be, you have to seek and then observe.

Ok then who's up for it, etc

Ha

Before the US starts hitting on foreign corporations committing crimes in the US, perhaps they should look in their own backyard at what US corporations are doing in the US ?

Next

Has anybody

tried taking the mechanism at 88 miles an hour

Tough

You got the world you created. So don't fucking start crying about it now. Photo-hysteria, pedo-hysteria, anything-else-hysteria. Good luck.

Not X factor

Susan Boyle was from Britain's Got Talent, not from X Factor, do please try to get these things right

Sonar

1. Sample 1 second of "undersea ambient noise"

2. Transmit that as the "ping"

3. Listen for any return reflection by comparing to original bit pattern in sample

4. There you go, Silent Sonar

(TM) me in about 1985

I'll say it again

hey Mosley - If you don't want the result, don't supply the cause

It's under the bed

"Barack Obama on Friday issued an order revoking a Chinese company's purchase of four wind farm projects in the United States citing national security concern."

If the US thinks wind farms are a national security concern then something has gone badly wrong in their heads, and it could now be "that time"

Appstorium

there, neatly joined several things together

Is there anything

that Apple won't sue about ?

I mean ANYTHING ?

Thought not.

hey Mounsey

meet Streisand

Can't wait

... until they see something from before the ionisation point, but of course that would be "debunked" as "misreading" etc

groan

no he'll call it .... Le iCam

Leica M ... doh

Pyramid

That rock looks a lot like a tiny pyramid, are they sure it's not someone Martian's little model of something else, this could cause a diplomatic incident or worse

007

That's a nice Ian Fleming ref in sub heading, well done

Irony

Can't escape the irony - the movie portrays Muslims as violent, hateful, intolerant, so they protest about it be being, erm, .... yes you got it.

Killing people in the name of religion, says it all really.

Make two

meanwhile, on Hokkaido island ....

Yep

there's going to be a glut of low cost second hand 4's and 4S's .... hey was it all that time ago when the 4S was released, it only seems like weeks ..............

re: What is it with Sweden these days?

Indeed, the country raised an international arrest warrant for somebody not a murderer etc.

Again

Uh-oh

why does the martian south pole look exactly like a MAP OF THE UK ?

Half the US economy

what a pity it's not actually made in the US from US sourced parts either

says it all

So what's the best one

I'm after a 7 inch pad running android and want external connectivity such as usb (for keyboards etc no not qwerty) and an SD slot so I can take backups of the things I create. Simple really

the media are more concerned with whipping up a response than conveying information

well I never

Indeed

Why does a country that is 3,000 miles from anywhere feel the need to spend* more on "defense" that the rest of the world put together, and then some ? Yet at the same time they manage to spare a few (relative) coppers to produce this amazing stuff. A place of paradoxes for sure.

* yes I know it's because it's an "industry" and they don't know any better what to do with their time/money ... there's the rub

it has to be said
