  4. Re:Stealth? on Military Grounds Stealth Bomber Fleet · · Score: 1

    The idea of stealth in this case is not to hide from general public, but to hide from radar.
    Basically, what their are telling is this:
    "We still have 20 bombers that can bomb any location in the world within hours with a nuke. Although they are big and not transparent, the only way you are gonna be able to shoot it down is using a manually aimed turret, since you can't get a radar lock on it. Good luck doing that at 400+ mph at 50k feet."
    (I'm sure there is other ways to shut this guy down, but I don't have knowledge on those).

    The new Office interface is a huge improvement for everyday use.
    Drop down menus that hide unused options is also another improvement. And it is very easy to access the hidden options.

    Sorry but 66% of your examples are, well, bad examples.
    It's easy to bash if you are a linux user and don't use them everyday...

  7. Re:vista? - DFS on Making Use of Terabytes of Unused Storage · · Score: 5, Informative

    Running DFS (to serve files) on Windows XP clients? What are you smoking?

    From Microsoft TechNet:

    The servers that will participate in DFS Replication must run Windows Server 2003 R2.

    It is possible to use DFS Namespaces when domain controllers and namespace servers run a mix of Windows Server 2003 R2, Windows Server 2003 with SP1, Windows Server 2003 without SP1, and Windows 2000 Server, but some functionality is disabled or available inconsistently, depending on the operating systems on the servers.

  11. Re:We are living through history, folks on The Next 25 Years in Tech · · Score: 1

    Seriously. Think about it. I'm 23 years old and from the year 2200. My generation has lived through:

    -Multiple, universe-influencing major conflicts.
    -The introduction, widespread distribution, and near-anywhere access of the Uninet (which, in my opinion, is one of our greatest achievements as humans.)
    -The rise of instant interplanetary communications.
    -Computers moving from being measured in inches to nanometers.
    -The rise of communication to the point where an actor can die in Earth, and within ONE HOUR the entire universe knowing of it (those parts of the universe that are connected to the Uninet, of course).
    -WWW3 (one of the most world-changing events in modern history)

    And many more. Seriously folks. We are living through one of the most exciting and important parts of history in the entire time-line of our species.

    And you know what? We are lucky enough to experience it first hand. Be grateful, folks. Someday, all of us will be the stuff of history and legend.
