The only one of those three that I trust is Geothermal Mainly since its relatively easy to install and very reliable. Wind is not reliable in the least and as for Hydro power just talk to the former occupants of the 100 or so villages flooded by China's Three Gorges Dam to see how easy they think it is to install
The guy your describing is not an average VB programmer Seems to be more some kid out of high school who has decided he's a programmer cause he can drop a command button and have it do something The average VB programmer that I know can tell you, in detail, everything you just talked about. Most of these VB programmers are students in college or just graduated and either took a LOT of courses in VB or started in c++ and took a lot of vb after that. Most had database courses (where we learn about data req's as a by product of databases) So overall VB has a wide range of programmers Kids in high school who have no clue about smooth clean code but just want to do something cool and deem themselves programmers (same would probably exist with any language but not to the level of VB) And people that know what they are doing can develop fast clean programs and do it well
Well I've spent the last year setting up terminal servers and messing with IPv6 and I"ve had all sorts of problems with support for it. Most times it will be quite transparent with applications (just substituting the IPv4 address for the IPv6 works great) but every once in a while the application would except an argument with an IPv4 format.
Overall Its really bloody annoying but if it expects it to look like IPv4 then yea it will have to be rewritten hopefully it will not become the case too often. I actually like IPv6 and have been having a lot of fun with it especially with automating it (automated tunnel setups and such) have a slight issue with the NetBSD stack (its wierd Really wierd) =) Anyways thats it for now
Agreed In virginia, really only arlington and fairfax hold the large number of technology and internet based companies (myself living only 10 minutes from PSInet and 15 from UUnet in fairfax)
I don't think virginia should issue this plate though Besides being stupid it defeats the view of the internet as a collection of computers with no true centralized point
I can understand what your saying. It does put a damper on complex life that has evolved how we have from existing on mars But who says that all complex life has to breath oxygen?
It would theoretically be the closest black hole Though scientists have hypothesized that a black hole exists outside our solar system for a while now.
This is an interesting bill actually. But as I read it, It appears to lend more towards controlling and monitoring the service providers then anything else. Also the representative appears to be wanting more broadband service. Most sections in the bill deal with pricing and service of broadband connections (in the bill this is stated as anything bove 200 kb/sec) The following section shows something along that line.
Sec 101 excerpt "knowingly failed to provide conditioned unbundled local loops when economically reasonable and technically feasible under section 715(a) of the Communications Act of 1934"
Far as I can tell this states that if a local carrier does not provide broadband service when it is capable of offering it it's in violation of parts of the sherman act.
Most of the parts of this bill are pretty cool Especially the e-mail section (though that one appears to be under heavy amendment) and the section about fair pricing for broadband providers (they wouldn't be able to overcharge if I read it right) Sec 101 (the above one) might cause the bill not to be passed, it would depend on how the bill appears to the companies that would be forced to offer the broadband service
There were several issues, listed on theos.com, that would have shaken up their case. One of which is that if they bring this case to court they might lose there patent due to abandonment. I'm not sure if thats due to the 3 year span between him registering the domain and them filing a case against it, or other matters. Also it is out of field (he and theos software are not in the same corporate fields) since he has no field and theos software is obviously a software company..
Actually I'm not sure what it was but my password it self worked like always I just couldn't login last time I tried. One thing was I was trying with mozilla might not have liked it somewhat
I dunno about most people but I would think that if it's a legitiment comment and not a comment made out of stupidity and/or the desire to just piss people off you wouldn't be trolling
I live near DC and I know people from at far south as north carolina that would drive up for it and prolly as far north as most of new york. Should be a packed place
I don't know what the Navy's attitude was towards it. The guy I talked to was more a mac and unix person so he thought it was as stupid as I did (though a mac on a navy ship would probably be just as bad) Anyways according to him they basically scrapped the idea till microsoft can fix it

From what I gathered from the article they are more complaining about the web servers on linux then about linux itself
seeing as how at least in connection rate soemthing per second is basically the standard form of expression I would think so
Agreed Its not often you see a news storie that has only a couple errors in it =)

Virginia especially northern virginia. has the headquarters of a lot of high tech companies including AOL, UUnet, PSInet and various others

But that would be more performance tuning the machine =)
"performance tuning in Windows NT.."
Such a beast is possible? =)
I believe that phone companies would still treat the 10 digit number as a local call (It would suck if they didn't)
Yeah but I'm too tired to punctuate....Actually I'm too lazy cause I never do it when I'm awake either..

Qmail is actually faster from what I could tell. But unfortunatly it's config files are poorly done and as such is a pain to use on large systems
c I believe was the speed of light in a vacuum that is constant speed of light through anything else isn't

The BH6 is REALLY nice Overclocking consists of just opening your bios and changing the bus speed it does the rest.. And for just 90 bucks online =)
