When you're not using decimal you must always say your numerical system, so "Hex one zero to C" seems logical to me. Alternatively you convert it to 16 to 12. Or a combination! "Hex of 16 to 12" has a fun ring to it.

Hawk533 is completely correct. The reason one would assume it's hexadecimal is because it says '0x' and not 'x'. Lower level programming languages will always consider numbers with 0x in front of them as hexadecimal, higher levels probably too. It's written as 0x10^C instead of 16^12 because...

If a friend puts it on his facebook without your consent it isn't really your own fault, that is what Germany wants to stop. The internet and facebook-esque things make it much, much easier for these things to fall in untrustworthy hands Before the internet such information was usually given...

Information available on Facebook, Twitter or whatever: "Went with a friend to a bar, see if he can find a nice girl so he won't remain alone in that big house of his." *Picture of me and friend at bar* "Was awesome, next week we're going again". Then a person with bad intentions within...

Number 3, that reason does not exist if the console's entire library of games exists on another console. People may not buy a console because a single game they want is exclusively available on that console, but because that game, among with many others are (only) playable on that console...

No, never. Apart from those few minutes when changing channels when it happens to come on TV.

From all those movies I've only seen The Matrix.

The Dutch speaking regions are governed by the Dutch parties, the French speaking regions are governed by the French parties. It would be silly to be able to vote for someone who has no say in your region. All is nice too with this regulation, just not when you want to do something regarding...

Amusingly, driving 10km/h faster than you're allowed grants only a very small time difference. Example (My 2 week vacation is coming to and end now, my Mathematics might still be slumbering so bear with me): Distance = 20 km Max speed = 90 km/h Time at max speed = 13 minutes and about 20...

Demon' Souls is definitely worth a try.
