It might be beneficial to see what led to the noise occurring. If the monitor doesn't have a cache and gets knocked off the dresser/table/desk by something that hadn't set off the mic's threshold, it would only begin recording after being knocked over or after it hits the floor. A cache would allow you to see what knocked it over (the kid's older sibling was retrieving his baseball glove).
Maybe as a side benefit you can capture baby audio noises to Wifi network as MP3 or something for posterity, with a noise detector to catch anything significant (I envision emailing grandma 12am baby babble heard through the monitor).
Can these monitors be given a ridiculously large cache (2-5 minutes worth), and then dump the cache to the computer when it detects a sound? I ask because it may be beneficial to see what happened just prior to the noise.
I've often wondered how many patterns we are missing, especially in regards to our "special" numbers (Pi, Phi, e, primes....) because we mostly deal in base10. If we suffer a Class 1 or Class 2 Apocalypse, I intend to seize the opportunity and implement hexadecimal as a default number system.
The oldest gospel only dates to circa year 80, fifty years after Jesus' death.
Paul was killed in 60-65 A.D, or 27-35 years after Jesus' death. He is the main character in Acts, and since Acts cuts off rather abruptly at the end without covering things such as his execution, it is reasonable to assume Acts was written before that. Acts is the second half of a two-parter, Luke being the first half. And Luke uses some parts from Mark...
Ah, I remember it well. It seems like only yesterday.
Yesterday? It was only an hour or two ago for me. Your must play at Epic speed.
Oh, that reminds me: I need to start upgrading my Warriors and other melee units. Except the Spearmen, of course.
Imagine what historians of several centuries in the future will think when they find that "archeological treasure trove" of bukkake, goatse, and tubgirl.
Do we have any digital media that lasts that long? I don't think any of those are very prevalent in longer-lasting media such as paper, wood, stone, or plastic. So unless we find new ways to read the corrupted data much like what WSJ is doing with the manuscripts, most of our illicit material will decay.
It's looking like free video codecs may pose a serious threat to the h.264 bait-and-switch plan to start charging millions for internet streaming of h.264 in 2010.
cycle-cycle collisions are less likely to cause serious injury or death
Yes, but that is only a factor once a significant portion of commuters start using bicycles. Until then, we are stuck with the much less palpable bike-vs-car.
Similar situation here. A morning (bus) ride and the occasional afternoon ride is 45 minutes. A normal afternoon ride is 90 minutes (necessary transfer leaves station 5-10 minutes before I get there, so I have to wait for it to come back.).
Biking is 30-45 minutes and not bound to a schedule.
although it has the unfortunate side effect of making you sound like a pretentious scholar that likes to toss around latin words that nobody knows.
Depends where you live. Gratis is not unknown here in central California because of the large hispanic population. The meaning in spanish may not be 1:1 with the meaning in English, but it's close enough. We non-spanish-speaking people still know what it means thanks to bilingual signs.

You people still sleep?
That way you can count up to 144 if you use both hands wisely.
Pfft. Binary allows up to 1023 with two hands.

You bring up a good point, the best way to poison the good roots of any religion is to grow fundamentalists.
On that note, as a Christian I would like to apologize for the likes of Jack Thomson.
Oh, and don't forget that Paul's letters pre-date all the gospels. Really hard to argue that he wrote them after his death.

Isn't there a reason why we have cliché's about prostitution as the oldest profession
How does this mean the ancient world wasn't more open about it?
Cyber-Captain Spiff calling in an airstrike...
...from Starbucks.
But then the US military does have a record or "shoot first, ask questions later".
Yet we haven't nuked a city since WWII...
The idea that they don't meet any of those definitions is tenuous at best, and a downright lie at worst.
I see the list as an AND filter, not an OR filter.
I prefer 42 nanoseconds.
What apps are there that have a 64-bit windows version but not a 64-bit linux version?
Photoshop

Either it's true, or I missed Slashdot's article.

PS: A transit pass (where I live) is $84/month, costing about $1008/year.
Ouch. $2/day or $30/month in my area....

Any effort to accommodate MS's ODF screwup?
I, personally, wouldn't include comments in a LoC count.
If they're hot, why have the upper age limit?
ed, vim, emacs, probably LaTeX...
The printer needs vector objects such as fonts to be rasterized at some point, and I don't think the Window Manager is involved in that.
