The arctic is not causing GW, it is being the most changed by GW. The main point is that the arctic can enable a "feed-back loop" which will INTENSIFY the GW .
So you are taking the comment out of context, and suggesting that the arctic is creating GW. That is why you are labeled troll.
If you have a WiFi point that has access to any node which contains credit card data you are risking trouble. There is no reason for a Wi-Fi point of any type to have access to the same network that contains credit card data. You just setup the connections for the wifi point to go out to the web for your customers.
I knew that Enterprise never made it to space, I was just surprised that internally at NASA they werent counting it. ( The same as some of them start the project in 1976, instead of 1981)
Correct, which is why we can still breathe:) Realize that most of a planet's mass is not involved in the generation of the atmosphere, and that aside from Volcanos not much change occurs on a 1000 year scale unless biological processes are involved. Volcanic activity has also substantially reduced on Mars, which would have been the other major factor in producing atmospheric gases from minerals / rocks.
The off-set of having a warmer atmosphere though is that warm things expand, which makes them easier to knock out of the atmosphere.
Even the Earth though loses the lightest elements to space, such as Hydrogen, and Helium. The only net addition of those elements are through comets / asteroids that occasionally visit.
No. The problem with mars is that it lacks the gravity to keep gaseous particles bound to it's atmosphere, such that the solar wind removes a really small % of it's atmosphere annually.
How would they expect this system to work at highway Merges ? Another fun thing is inclement weather and curves on the highway. My car can take curves at a much higher speed than a panel truck during high winds.
I can see where this would be useful on long straight highways, but otherwise very dangerous. Each car would also need a "safe return to park" capability which would cause the cars to park themselves to the side of the road if the central control was lost, and the driver did not respond within a few seconds.
Include a gps unit that would alert people that their turn is coming up, and have the professional driver thing only be for testing , and add that capability to general car system.
This app only works as long as the abicollab.net website is functional, and they will get to see a copy of anything you do. This would only be a useful alternative if there was a separate deployable web-service that could be INTERNALLY hosted.
The main reason for us not using google apps is that the documents would be vulnerable to privacy issues. This solution does not fix that problem. If you have access to external web site, you might as well use a web based app.

Appeals court only determined that the contract is a mess, and cannot be interpreted on its own. The court agreed that SCO owes Novell a large portion of the money it received from SUN , and that a full trial is required to figure out the rest. Again this is just more delay for SCO, but SCO will soon be in Trustee-ship under chapter 11 bankruptcy, which means that it is HIGHLY likely that these cases will be closed by SCO itself, and settled in favorable terms to Novell & IBM.
Darl will not be in control of SCO once the trustee is assigned, and then we'll really get to find out who's been behind this mess.
So what happens when the ISP shares your dynamic IP address with the pedo around the block who has the same ISP ? Would you like your information tied to his web searches ?
Better yet, I could be running an open wireless point, or a TOR end-point, which could contain god knows what traffic on it ?
how about during the time you have your computer off, I happen to spoof your ip address and you would never know about it.
As many have pointed out, proper virus protection and lock down policies will keep those issues down.
However, re-imaging needed due to registry corruption, debugging software issues on "identical" machines that works in one instance and not another, and many other windows specific maintenance tasks should all be considered part of the over-head that does not exist for a linux installation.
Let me introduce you to a new concept, it's called waves reaching the beach. Energy is reduced when the waves reach the beach. If we extract that energy instead, there is no net change in energy distribution at a planetary scale.
Additionally, the moon is actually departing earth orbit, just very slowly. ( 1-3 inches / year) , so no global moon imact is imminent

The only guidelines that need to be implemented in any secure workplace are to not run filesharing apps on ANY end-user computer. ( torrents, etc. should be done on a machine reserved for that purpose.)
I have mobile broadband for work / support issues, and it does not do well with video streaming. ( watch 3 minutes, wait 3 minutes, repeat )
Audio streaming is just able to keep up most of the time.
I can certainly confirm the latency issues are noticeable, but for ssh / remote support it is use-able. buy a host site plan from a friendly web provider, and just remote admin the info.
This guys rant about the medical system is more just a problem with over-worked health care professionals, and physicians who are used to doing it their own way, and has very little to do with the electronic records system in use.
One we have physicians in place that have used computers their entire lives, and are comfortable with their electronic systems then we will start to see the benefits provided by automation.

Easier to install
This will vary with the flavor of linux. Some are definitely more challenging to get functional. If
you compare the installation / setup time for 50 computers, with ease of installation being a priority in your
choice of distributions, then you can have them up & running quicker, and more consistently with Linux than
with windows.
I dont know why someone hasnt designed an easier to setup method to have pc's wake on lan signal boot the hard drive, so that systems can be powered on at 5am or such, prior to folks getting to work.
That would eliminate most folks problems of waiting for their computer to boot up when they get to work.

From Charged particles, yes. Not all space particles are charged, or are slowed down by magnetic fields.
Mars is lacking a magnetic field, which is also believed to be why volcanism has stopped. (molten core not large enough, or maybe fully solid )

Although the question was not directed towards 3-5 year olds, the systems described in this thread would be similarly useful to you.

No, but if you attempt to create any application similar to an existing microsoft app, they will block any attempt for you to sell your product.

Assuming that the majority of us have credit/debit cards ( at least in the U.S.)
Get each user to post a fee in their name to their credit card. Person who's name matches the fee wins & gets refunded.
Users without a card, can use a verifiable bank account number. ( doesnt even need to be billed, just call bank X, and verify banking info.)
At the worst case, someone else now has the identity verification problem.
