Windows 8 made me think about using Linux again. I think that says it all.

I really can't tell you about the world wide reserves (or I'd have to kill you ;) ) but I suppose Google knows... But yes, I do work for an oil related company. I can even tell you that I'm working in the Offshore department which definitely is earning it's share from oil companies. I just get to toy around with cool stuff, see interesting areas and hopefully make a difference. In relation to the oil prices; I always get the feeling it has little to do with demand and supply but more with gambling on stock markets. Cheers, AT

Shell is somewhere between Dutch and British which, come to think on it, is in the North sea right on top of the oil. The gas price is not the problem, it's just that such a big part of the price is made up from taxes. People are addicted to gas, oil companies are the dealers and the government is the godfather that takes the biggest cut. Should i sign up for addicts anonymous? Cheers, AT

Wouw, that much. We only pay a bit over 9 dollars. Pretty nice if you consider the amount of oil Norway is producing. Cheers from The Netherlands, AT

I fail to see the joke in this, all remarks seem to be true.You better make sure Chuck Norris does not see you use His Name in the same line as the word joke though... Cheers, AT

Looks like fun but to toy around with your colleagues I would avoid using live amo... That being said, mounting one of these office USB missile launchers might just spike things up a bit. By the way: this technology is still 10 years in the future... I don't think so, it's out there you just have to assemble it. Getting the gun (legal or illegal) may prove to be the hardest part. I think I'll stick to toy rockets though. Cheers, AT

If my wife lears about this thing I'll be driving to Germany next weekend. :laugh:

So that's why we end up sending a email/text message/whatsapp.... Etc. Instead of talking to a person. Messages don't get interrupted. [you may reply after the beep] . .. ... .... ..... ;P

As long as this math does not apply to my salery i think it is pure genius :-D Cheers, AT

So true! Maybe with the extension; so i'm a programmer. Cheers, AT

I sense some minor traces of dislike between the lines; it might just be that English is not my native language but.... I think i'm on to something ;)

Mmm i was starting to feel left out on the MS mail list and then i remembered that i had recently unscribed to the mobile depertment as I'll not have time to toy around with that any time soon, let alone time to read though all the mails. Still, this one has made me just a bit curious....

Understood and explanation accepted :laugh:

I wonder why you would suggest that they are programmers rather than general users. It would, with history in mind, be much easier to explain. Resistance is futile; you will be assimilated. If it is accepted as the truth, all you can do is gently wave a white flag. Cheers, AT

This may very well be the one and only thing as far as i'm concerned.

This discussion is even taking place in my little country which is not particularly known to.... Well how to put it... Make a big deal about downloading illigal content. In fact till this day, downloading anything is still legal. And even here a judge made the ruling that two ISP's should block the PirateBay or face rather big penalties. The positive thing is that some people in politics are now fighting this ruling as it obstructs the right to free communication. We'll see where this goes i guess, for now it seems that the lobbyist are winning(and the rest of humanity is loosing) Cheers, AT
