It's sad when I hear a nice car, exhaust, sound system or whatever, and I turn around and look, to see a riced up hyundai excel or any other hyundai pos.
Well, I read something years back, dunno if it's true or not, as how Finland got 1/3 of it's military equipment from the west, developed 1/3 of it owns equipment, and it got the other 1/3 from the USSR.
Maybe that's what he is referring to or something.
I think the stuff you are thinking of is He3, Helium with only 1 neutron instead of 2. H3 is tritium, an isotope of Hydrogen, but I imagine that stuff is also pretty rare here in Earth as well.
Hehe, reminds me of when Geocities was not owned by Yahoo, and the time of the Community Leader.
I was a community leader for a couple months, did bugger all, got a free t-shirt and hat shipped out to me (all the way to Australia), I still wear the t-shirt almost daily.
I also got 10 shares in Geocities, that were converted to 6 Yahoo shares and $120 or something like that. I later sold them for about $400 each.
All this for almost bugger all work, and of course, don't get me started on my celebrity fan websites I had for a while.
Damn, I miss the dot com era, so much easy money and stuff to be made, now I'm busting my but to make ends meet working a going no where job, while trying to finish my comp sci degree.
You really only start to get high ping and latency if the sattelite is in a geostationary orbit, and this thing appears to be in a LEO, though the article didn't appear too clear about this, so ping times would prolly be less.
But I imagine ftp access wouldn't be too fussed about ping times, unless your trying to ftp into something like Pioneer 10 or something.
>Or how is it with Charon? Can you really say it's a moon of pluto? I mean the difference in masses is not that great, actually you could also say it are two planet orbiting around each other, while orbiting around sun.
Damn, then you must consider our own moon as a planet too, as both the earth and the moon orbit each other around a central point while orbiting the sun.
Well, what if New York was destroyed by a nuclear device, it might take a while before anyone could even step foot in the area without some sorta protection.

It sure looks like it.

They just seem to be everywhere, bah humbug.
The web site you are trying to access has exceeded its allocated data transfer.
Haha, I bet your counter is now sitting on more then 2137 right about now. The power of good ol slashdotting.
> Papua-New Guinea
That's our (Australian) sphere of influence.
Oh wait, our prime minister is bum buddies with George Bush, I guess you'd be more then welcome.
>we've got a war with the Canadian aggressors to organize.
If only John Candy was still alive.
For $20,000 I would expect next day service.
Bleh, rip off more like it, hehe.

Didn't the old beetles used to have a problem where they could explode if they were rear-ended?
Damn, I must be lucky, I got rear ended a few months back in my bug, but it didn't explode.
But of course getting money out of the bitch who did this is going to make me explode one of these days.
just dont let your gf see it
No problem with that happening with most of the slashdot visitors.
because i'd rather bathe in acid and razor blades
Yeah, I'd rather bathe in a bath of water / iron salts, in a hydrogen gas filled room too!
Though nobody better have a naked flame in the room.
I think the stuff you are thinking of is He3, Helium with only 1 neutron instead of 2. H3 is tritium, an isotope of Hydrogen, but I imagine that stuff is also pretty rare here in Earth as well.
Nasa's revenge for getting funding forced for the mission.
They'll crash the probe into the planet before getting pictures.
Hmmm, maybe there is some sorta secret Nasa installation on Pluto, maybe that's why Nasa doesn't want the funding for the mission.
Or the 114th time.
Thanks for that little glimpse of Australian hygiene.
So that's why women stay away from me, now I get it.
Oh yeah, I guess I should've mentioned it gets washed daily, but oh well...

Tell them to take off their helmets while in the vacuum of space.
That'll convince them, or they'll say that they are in a big room, with all of the air removed, and it is a big conspiracy to silence them.

Though they may have anticpated the slashdot effect.
out of the 6 that are profitable, 5 of them are cooking up the books to make it look like they are making a profit, and 1 runs an adult website.
Season 1 and Season 2 minus the referrer bit the parent poster put down.
Hot didly dang, I never realised how hot Earth's sister was, hoo wee.
Nah, no need for the bombing, John Howard is already George Bush's bum buddy, and would do anything to please the American president.

>No, the thing is, people want action, and explosions !
Something I'm sure the Martian Defense System will provide, or if they get passed that, Marvin the Martian might just finish off that probe.
Well, what if New York was destroyed by a nuclear device, it might take a while before anyone could even step foot in the area without some sorta protection.
