Upgraded the RAM, replaced the battery and hard drive, even replaced the screen. Still one of the best laptops I have ever used. Biggest problem is it is heavy compared to modern laptops.
I owned a few Palms. Never had one with a physical keyboard. When the iPhone came out, to me it just looked like a tiny, spruced up Palm. Never thought it would be the killer device it turned out to be.
The sports field is not fancy, it is literally a field. Not even goal posts. They have a very small budget, total. For everything school related, K-12. We took up a collection and the donation was a substantial percentage of their total yearly budget.
Glendo is a tiny town with a population of 205. About 100,000 extra people showed up for the eclipse. The locals were very friendly, and allowed us to observe from the sports field next to the school. They were so taken back by all this, the locals were out videoing the traffic as it arrived, since they had never seen anything like it. The location was perfect. Absolutely clear blue sky. A couple of hot air balloons drifted by just as totality hit. Absolutely breathtaking event. Then, reality hit. We had to make it south through the largest traffic jam in Wyoming history. Well worth it.
The cruiser HMS Sydney was sunk in that same area during WWII with the loss of all hands. They didn't find it until 2008. If it took them that long to find a massive warship, it's going to take a while to find bits of a crashed plane.
2 lbs of explosive would do nothing to a flight deck. A drone dropping a grenade onto a playground while kids are playing is a far more likely outcome. ISS is already doing that in Iraq and Syria. As they were being defeated in Mosul they sent drones into cleared areas and dropped grenades or mortar bombs onto the civilians. It seems someone always finds a way to use every technological advance to harm someone else.
MREs today are so much better than the original dehydrated pork patty and dehydrated fruit cocktail. Not to mention the original 4 hot dogs or meatballs in barbecue sauce. The biggest problem with the providing tasty food is having to smash it flat in those little packets. They have found ways of including far more enjoyable fare. If they packed it in a more appeasing manor they may be able to turn out decent meals.
Oracle started to confuse matters when they stopped going by the version number and started calling things 8i and 9i R2 and cloud and every other odd name they use.. 9i was 9.0, and 9i R2 was 9.2. Where did 9.1 go? Long ago, we deployed Oracle Reports for a customer. It ran on the 8i application server which was version 8.1, but was called Reports 6i. The reports function ran internally under an Oracle 8.0 home. I would prefer an overarching name, like Oracle Database 2018, and just use the version numbers to identify the actual versions of the components.
If it separates during collisions, it is because dark matter is stopping dark matter. If it was caused by gravity, the same thing would happen to normal matter. No, they don't think it uses electro-magnetism, or it wouldn't be dark. It may interact via the weak nuclear force like neutrinos do.

Watching TV makes it less enjoyable
So no one will ever be able to use it again...
Isn't that the point MTV was trying to make 36 years ago?
I had forgotten that story. Thanks for the reminder, I need to go back and read it again.
Mid-West Korea.
Now, it didn't last long and was a long time ago. Records from other places may just have been lost over time.

The development started long before Obama.

The Babylonians didn't invent trigonometry, they invented time travel. They went into the future and stole trigonometry from us.

I liked Wave. Unfortunately, no one else did. Collaboration tools aren't very useful by yourself.
A service named Discord is banning people who are causing discord? They need to rename their service.

As someone who ate them for 26 years, I can tell you that the freeze dried fruit cocktail was not the best MRE. Glad they got rid of that crap.

Top 10 things which make good Beowulf Clusters
What do they know about climate change? If they are so concerned about it, how about invest in projects to combat it.

They created self winding watches, can't they make self winding cell phone?
