i tried the testing net install a month or so back. i'd been running on the same debian install for a couple years and wanted to start fresh. anyway, it was the first time in about 8-9 years that debian had left me with a unusable system.
i ended up going with ubuntu. not perfect, but real close.
looks like they are taking a step backwards to a more Gemini/lifting body approach. i've always thought that was a better configuration, but it's hardly new.
i like it. i think they should have taken that path with Orion.
many power plants are using natural gas to generate electricity.
by using wind this frees up the natural gas to be use in cars. we were using natural gas as a free/bootleg fuel in cars back in the 70s. i'm sure others were doing it before us. it's a drop in replacement.
the compressors for the natural gas pipelines durring the winter create a condensate or drip as the farmers called it. this isn't a problem at the first compressor but after traveling down the line it can cause aliquid lock in the next compressor. so they bleed/drain it off.
it didn't take the local farmers long to realize that this Drip not only can be used as a substitute for gasoline, but if you add a quart of 30 wt engine oil to every 55 gallons it runs better and stays in a liquid state longer.
this is perfectly legal as long as it stays on the farm, but when you start using it in cars on the highway, you are violating tax laws and if you sell it, you are basicly a bootlegger.

tell me a decent geologist cant locate some billion year old glass from a meteor impact, a volcanic eruption or something. if you can find a sample you should be able to test this.
it seems to me that the clumps could be caused by the very ice we are looking for. by screening it out, the samples won't be representative of the soil

i hope they got what ever the problem was fixed.
That was my first impression too
the last few new search engines that have been advertised here at /. all required a login/account just to search.
how F'ed up is that?

but does this determine the quality of the phone or the network?
looks like KDE
just like Huntsville and the redstone arsenal or more like

i'll give it a try, thanks.
on the other hand i'd bought a little FM transmitter so i can listen to my itunes on my car radio. it has the same problem. can this be fixed also?
i just switched from a straight debian install to Ubuntu.
it's faster and more responsive by far.
my only gripe is the whole F'd up superuser/root thing.
where does the toilet go to?
and when they graduate they can take one of those 20/hr jobs at bestbuy incouraging the use of Vista

expect this to start becoming more common/popular
that last one with the laptop fitting to the steering wheel is just scary.
does this come with an autopilot?
still, that's the last thing we need.
and without more Illudium how will we make moreQ-36 Explosive Space Modulators
the term, FUD originated with IBM, not Microsoft.
so i won't say it can't happen, but i'm not holding my breath either

Will they release a version of Wine for Vista?
couldn't this invalidate the tests.

but that would leave the BSA people jobless.
how crewl and and uncaring is that
just wait till the BSA finds out what the BSA is doing
