We got to much rain as it is. Any more and it'll be instant flooding with very little rainfall since the ground is already saturated.

Yeah, but just think about how normally this time of year you'd be under water restrictions because the level in the aquifer is really low.

There already is a root password to access the iPhones, however, there is not that much to exploit given the modifications between the iPhone's Darwin and the regular Darwin for Mac computers. From a security perspective, there's not much to exploit. From the /etc/passwd on my laptop: # Note that t...

I don't really see that big of a difference.
I'd call having 45 fewer buttons a big difference.

He released them to the wild? Legalities do not allow human-habituated wolves to be released to the wild, as far as I know. Reasonable, too, since such animals are more likely to prey on livestock and also get too close to hunters. Are you sure he was allowed to release them? EDIT: Ah, I realize he...

The main focus of any story should always be one thing. Conflict. Without a good focus on conflict, any movie can be bad. That's Anthony's job to create appropriate conflicts for the characters. We merely gave him a means to iron out those details that other WW films ignore. Uh... I don't wanna sou...

And, I dare any of you to say you've collected an American 1913 Liberty Head "V" nickel; only five were minted, all illegally by a guy who snuck in after-hours while they were preparing to start cranking out the new buffalo design. That makes it 5x more common than the 1933 Double Eagle o...

All of the Windows OS's are flawed, of course, but Vista has two redeeming qualities. It throws the DOS core out the window (pun unintended), and has FAR better security features. That's more than enough to save Microsoft's reign of bad programming altogether. Actually, they switched over to the NT...
