@Robusto I don't think so. I am running BSD now, was running BSD 15 years ago, and was running BSD 15 years before that. Virtually everthing that matters feels the same, and even non-BSD systems feel like BSD.
@Robusto I don't think so. I am using LSD now, was using LSD 15 years ago, and was using LSD 15 years before that. Virtually everthing that matters feels the same, and even non-LSD systems feel like LSD.

Which is French for “Fuck leap seconds.”
But the phrase is much more élégante in French, don’t you think?
Ökostrom means that someone paid to come up with smoke and mirrors came up with some mirrors, and hid the smoke in the ozone layer.
@GeorgePompidou were. Then they all went bankrupt, and now China is in the lead, and will stay there because there's zero competition for decades to come.

The funniest part is that they are genuinely convinced that we want their shit to stay on the Internet, that people will search for their shit, and that we totally want to be the first hit for shit.
Anyway. That page really tells me "you don't want to be using this. you are bored. you are so so so much bored. you want to die, but you're too lazy to".
In 1998 the US Congress amended the Rehabilitation Act to require Federal agencies to make their electronic and information technology accessible to people with disabilities. Section 508 was enacted to eliminate barriers in information technology, to make available new opportunities for people with disabilities, and to encourage development of technologies that will help achieve these goals. The law applies to all Federal agencies when they develop, procure, maintain, or use electronic and information technology. Under Section 508 (29 U.S.C. § 794d), agencies must give disabled employees and members...
How to express the proportion of office managers who do not use Comic Sans for posting notes above the sink in the kitchen . . . I think zero comes close.
Ok, so the color difference for ELU is 24 vs 23 on SO. The RGB are too tight on SO and therefore we respond non-linearly to brightness differences, but with SO, there is a hue difference. Just look at the triplets: the SO ones are all three the same in RGB but the ELU ones are not.
The lens of the human eye yellows with age due to a number of factors. You do not notice this because of color constancy. However, it manifests as less ability to see well in lower light levels and to distinguish subtler hue shifts in certain combinations.
Haha, the Google Translation is delightfully rubbish.
> Are you doing experiments in chemistry, just forget your glasses before. For you have acid in the face, The eyewear - burn everything!
For completeness, the original said "When doing experiments in chemistry, never forget your glasses. For when you have acid in the face, everything will burn but the glasses won't."
The one in the cellar is a real tube. The one that broke was LCD. The current one seems to be plasma, because after two weeks of playing World of Tanks I can see the game's interface overlaid over everything at all times.
Before the Colorado Territory became a state, they were going to put the capital at Leadville. Which is also at ten kilofeet. Can you imagine all the home games?
The Town of Fairplay is the Statutory Town that is the county seat and the most populous municipality of Park County, Colorado, United States. Fairplay is located in South Park at an elevation of 9,953 feet (3,034 m). The town is the fifth-highest incorporated place in the State of Colorado. The population was 679 at the U.S. Census 2010.
== History ==
A historic gold mining settlement, the town was founded in 1859 during the early days of the Pike's Peak Gold Rush. The town was named by settlers who were upset by the generous mining claims given to the earliest prospectors and promised a more...

And then they wouldn't let me in because I can never remember which answer is correct on the immigration bulletin, "Yes, I want to kill the President", "No, I do not want to kill the President", or "I might want to kill the President at some point in the future".
Let me find some greener cathedrals, let you think ours are always so sere.
A cathedral so high you cannot see its roof, those are.
Reg has a vacation cottage there at about 300 feet.
> Other changes in eye function also occur as people age. The amount of light that reaches the back of the retina is reduced, increasing the need for brighter illumination and for greater contrast between objects and the background.
@Rob Maybe that is the problem.
> The pupils become smaller, react more sluggishly to light, and dilate more slowly in the dark. Therefore, people older than 60 may find that objects appear dimmer, that they are dazzled initially when going outdoors (or when facing oncoming cars during night driving), and that they have difficulty going from a brightly lit environment to a darker one.
> In old age, changes to the sclera (the white of the eyes) include the following: Yellowing or browning caused by many years of exposure to ultraviolet light, wind, and dust
> The chemical composition of the lens also changes with time as proteins are produced in different proportions (Spector, 1982, pp. 33-34). These chemical changes cause the lens to yellow over time. This yellowing of the lens reduces its transparency, causing it to become more opaque with time.
> The aging variable lens further filters light, which is more yellow and opaque than in younger eyes. Researchers estimate that the elderly retina receives approximately one third of the amount of light that a younger retina would receive (Ordy, Brizzee, & Johnson, 1982, p. 86). This means that older persons require much more lighting than younger persons.
So perhaps my trouble with SO is simply dead eyes.
@RegDwigнt My grandfather knew songs to go with every possible utterance.
@tchrist I find I do need brighter illumination for some things, but not all. Driving at night is still not a problem for me, but I do have trouble seeing black-on-black lettering on the back of the TV. The ophthalmologist says I have some very slight yellowing in the lens of one eye, but that's all.
