I have T-Mobile and one of those 802.11 based phones (the Nokia one). The $10/month charge is for unlimited calling over Wifi. The Wifi roaming is free; all it cost is the normal airtime charges you'd usually get charged. It works great at work where I get no reception at all in the building.
I'm rambling, but this touches a kind of long-term fantasy of mine -- basically, put the equivalent of a Radio Shack Color Computer (but with something better than MSBASIC) in every kid's pocket.
It's already here, at least in the US. The TI graphing calculators that are in high schools now run a TI version of BASIC and you can even write assembly directly for the Z80 or 68k (depending on model). I cut my assembly programming teeth writing assembly games for the TI-86 back in middle school.
I've used to use NaCl, but the Cl2 fumes were starting to worry me. I switched to Sodium Bicarbonate which works just as well with out the poisonous gasses.
You realize they did this because those little pins that contact inside the connect can only handle a couple 100 mA of current before they start to melt through the plastic, right? They had to tipple up each power and ground rail just to the high current requirements of current spindle based HDs. However, with the new SSDs coming out, it may no longer be the case for much longer.
Why can't you have both? I hate to be the break it to you but the iPhone is a much better platform hardware wise than the FIC phone that is being sold to developers right now (minus the GPS of course, but even that uses a binary blob currently).
Openmoko is supposed to be an open-source platform, that will run on multiple phones. Being able to run code on the iPhone is the first step in getting an open platform like Openmoko out there. So don't discourage others from doing what they like. It's their choice, and they have something to bring to the table as well.
If it's under Applecare, just lie and tell them the keyboard doesn't work and they'll probably replace it for you. I had a similar thing happen to my Powerbook's power adaptor. The little tabs that hold the cable snapped off, so I told them it didn't work any more and they replaced it, simple as that.
30 seconds? I'm supprised the towel didn't do more than just smoke. Even for a small dorm microwave, 30s at high power is quite a bit of energy.
Your microwave, since it was pretty small, was only probably about 500 watts. Since watts are energy per unit time, a 500 watt microwave on full power for 30 seconds would have dumped ~15000 joules of energy into your dry towel.
If you do some reasearch in to Eolas, you'd find out that the patent in question was loaned to them by the University of California, the same people who own the copyright to BSD. If you go to their Q&A about the lawsuit, you can see all the details for yourself.
Actually, both realMYST and Uru use a modified version of the Plasma engine. Cyan bought the company and the code a couple of years ago to do realMYST.
You should try Klik n' Play. My friend used it to make some intresting games when he was younger. And it looks like they have a version for schools that's free to use too.
Without marching out into the world and killing all of these people "pre-emptively", our only realistic option is to improve our remote sensing (intelligence) technologies to find them before they become real, active threats.
Perhaps instead of inventing some new miracle technology to stop attacks, we could maybe, possibly change our policy so that they don't feel compelled to sacrifice their lives to run planes into our buildings.
Or get an m500 which is basically a m4 with capacitor backup and newer NAND.

Take a look at this article linked to in TFA. Seems like a pretty big boost.
AFAIK, UCD uses a set of massive Sun Enterprise servers to run their backend Oracle databases and mail servers.
Some do. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hershey_process#Classification for why.

FYI, DJNZ is a Z80 instruction for Decrement and Jump if Not-Zero; very useful for doing loops.

Understanding the Linux Kernel has a very good description of most of what you want to know. It, and Linux Device Drivers, certainly helped me get acquainted with the inner parts of the kernel.
Plus, switching to +20kHz would eliminate most of the 60Hz hum you get from ground loops in audio equipment.

They have a book bound in human skin (#143). Skin is an organ, right?

The top parent is one of the reasons why.

Are you sure it's your pr0n collection and not something else?
