  1. Re:uh, won't it have lots of errors in space? on Putting the Raspberry Pi Into Orbit · · Score: 1

    It is ridiculous to say you could use this for a satellite. Yes, you could throw this up into orbit in a satellite and it would probably work for a little while before radiation issues. If you are buying a multimillion dollar rocket, you can afford to throw down more than $35 for your satellite bus. If you are hitching a free ride on rocket bought by a third-party and just wanted a few day of LEO orbit, then yes Raspberry Pi could be an option. If you have a free ride to space, you might want to spend a few more dollars to guarantee a longer mission life.

  2. Re:wtf on Multiplayer Linux Games · · Score: 0

    I could never get it to run on my 486DX, I didn't have enough memory!

  3. Re:interesting on Panther Analysis Getting Underway · · Score: 0

    I can't wait to do this! It will probably be easier and more rewarding than my project to turn my muscle car into 2 sport bikes. It will just take some a little soldering, two panther licences, a bunch of engineers, and magic.

  4. Re:Article has two icons on ATI To Support XFree86 4.3 Soon · · Score: 0

    I see three icons! This is a good move since so many stories map to more than just one topic.

    I love Sealab 2021.

    Lives will be made better

  7. Re:NASA on Slashback: Intentia, Ephemera, Restoration · · Score: 0

    First you need to become a US citizen. They won't bother talking to you unless you are a citizen. Joining the Air Force might help too.

    People starving under the Shah?
    ITs been over 20 years later since the revolution am I am willing to be more people are starving now then with the Shah.

  9. SPARC on Old MIPS/ARM PDAs for Teaching? · · Score: 0

    I'm taking this class next semester, and I would really rather do something with handhelds than the SPARC emulator.
    I don't know much about the subject, but you would think there would be a few more replies!

  10. Re:Drugs, Drugs, Drugs on Just Say No To Reading About Drugs · · Score: 1

    Alcohol is a drug. Budwiser doesn't want it to be associated with the "hard drugs", and peopling dealing with "hard drugs" think it weakness the term drug. If you look at the numbers it is the biggest and most dangerous drug in America. Straight Edge my ass. You've picked an awful drug and think some how you are better than those who eat meat, smoke pot, or do whatever!

  11. dvd and mp3 cd's on Aiwa car CD-MP3 player · · Score: 1

    I have seen a dvd player that also plays mp3 cd's. It was cool, but i don't think you could search through the mp3's while playing one.

  12. Re:A thought about Area 51 on Slashback: Books, Spooks, Violence, Recovery · · Score: 1

    All the real secret testing is done in North Africa in the middle of nowhere. Nothing takes place in the States any more.

  13. another reason for strong encryption on Northwest Searches Employees' Home Computers · · Score: 1

    it's about encryption stupid.

  14. Re:Upgrading and Reparing PCs on PC Case Specs? · · Score: 1

    I have an old edition of this book and it is filled with information about almost everything. It even goes into detail about the beebs made by your bios during the POST. I sure you can find an old copy that has all the information you will need for a couple of bucks.

  15. Biltmore on Red Hat Distro Code-Naming Scheme? · · Score: 1

    The Biltmore is also one of the best and most famous resorts in located in Phoenix. There are also some not so famous Biltmore hotels, not part of the orignal Biltmore chain and not nearly as nice.

    bill will now have to play by the same rules as everyone else.
