During the 1960s and 70s, distribution of the Anderson shows was common throughout the UK and British Commonwealth countries but unfortunately less so in the U.S.A., sad to say. Today American kids of all ages can see for themselves what all the joy was all about back then. I for one used to run home from school to catch the late afternoon showing of the newest Fireball XL-5 episode on one of the local Canadian TV stations. Stingray was mind-blowing (buildings that lowered underground!) and when Thunderbirds came out (in colour!) I was ecstatic. According to various obituaries in today's British newspapers those Anderson shows have been rerun many times on UK TV and continue to pull in large audiences of all ages. To Gerry, where ever you have gone, a hearty "F-A-B!"
The company name rhymes with canape, but I cannot help but read it as "Can I Prey!"
Anyways, Google Street View shows that their head office appears to be a mail box in a post office that is part of a corner store at 15410 Pierrefonds Blv, Montreal, QC so I guess I won't be ordering them a few thousand pizzas.
If even a small percentage of people suffering with "Locked-in" Syndrome are reachable it will be a major win. Think "Johnny Got His Gun" or "The Diving Bell And The Butterfly" for cinematic examples of "Locked-in" Syndrome.
Since you've asked for a true geek solution it is necessary to get out of that immobile structure with it's permanent address and accompanying tethers to "the man". Get yourselves into a geek-pimped Class A motorhome so that you can live off the grid as much as possible. A strict observance of anti-surveillance protocols will be a must, including burner phones. Keep them guessing which Wal-Mart you'll camp in next, and have fun wardriving. Field-strip your gear regularly and don't leave anything behind anywhere. Destroy this message. Good luck.
Before there were the new atheists and their best-selling books, there was Paul Kurtz promoting humanism and skepticism through his many publications and institutions:
Dawkins is brilliant, as ever, but Paul Kurtz brought secular humanism an intellectual clarity that helped pave his way. They are tremendously complementary reads.
Across many species the ability to mimic other creatures is commonplace. In this case, the notion that the beluga was "trained" makes it difficult to assess whether there was actual comprehension of the meaning and/or purpose of the mimicked sound(s). This makes the story nothing more than a parallel to circus-trained animal stories.
Ostensibly it is indeed a "Space" agency, but the real insider scoop is that in about a year the rovers will actually be sent to Vermont as a prelude to invasion and subjugation of that state's maple syrup and dairy industries. Of course the Green Mountain Boys will welcome us with roses.
Many RVs have an aluminum roof, and many also have aluminum siding on aluminum superstructures as well as metallic thermal-reduction glazing of the windows, making them quite effective Faraday Cages. Try to find an RV with fibreglass or other RF-transparent roofing and siding, or else be prepared to install external rooftop antennae for such things as AM/FM radio, TV, GPS, 4G/LTE, etc. etc. and also be sure that your internal 12VDC wiring provides enough sockets and juice for all your electronic devices. A pair of new AGM batteries connected in parallel and augmented with a generator will serve you long and well in non-serviced sites, while modern RV electrical systems provide clean, regulated power whether plugged into the grid or remaining on battery.
Does anyone know whether tortoises of his kind have high long-term memory capability? I find myself wondering whether he would remember the loss of so many family members over the years thanks to humans who were not conscious of the ramifications of what they were doing.
Osborne Effect round 2, here we go, kicking Nokia in the nuts when its down. Elop will tell us all to just wait a bit longer for his master plan to work and profits to start happening.
I've had the same Nokia phone since 1862 but the charger died in 1947 and I still can't find a replacement for it on ebay or amazon. Do you think they stopped making them?
The community already took control of Mandriva's distro by forking it to Mageia in 2010. Mandriva, as a distro, has seemed almost pointless since then despite some inherent design changes. So, what Mandriva is now proposing seems to be an anachronism.
The nice Mageia distro was born from all the Mandriva uncertainty of the past several years and is about to launch version 2 any day now. Again, Mandriva seems almost pointless, but all the power in the world to people who take them up on their offer.

If I write an NTP server in Tcl/Tk and register it on Dot.TK could I call it ticktock.tcl.tk?

Wouldn't it be great if just one company controlled everything so that... no wait.

You read it here first.
These are prototypes. Prototypes don't get sent anywhere. They are only design projects.

Florian Mueller predicted this perfectly except that the other side won.

Dude I submitted it yesterday. Go play in the solar radiation.
