Yup, tip jars. Again I'd like to point out my fav radio station [http://3wk.com]. I tip them, though recently they've started playing some guilt trip ads for tips which work, but are frustating as well.
If not, then what if we paid for the editors to use a spell-checker? Or access to a temporary acces of a local-cache of a linked site?
Well see, there's this bit about the positron not being localized, with a non-uniform probablity density to boot. So while globally electrically neutral locally the magnetic fields do not cancel.
NMR (Nuclear Magnetic Resonance), used in Chemistry and other fields, relies upon the magnetic properties of certain nuclei (1H, 13C...) to determine the structure of an intact molecule.
To prosecute Napster, and other forms of peer-to-peer(p2p) is one thing. While greedy it is true that they are violating the law.
To pursue outrageous requirements for streaming radio-stations is vicious and uncalled for. Obviously no radio-broadcast station is required nor can give you much of the information you are seeking form a streaming station. Just because it is technically feasible to implement some of things (although certainly not economically, which may well be your goal) does not mean they should be. And to require disparate licensing fees when you would be partially compensated with the privileged information you seek is further evidence of a lack of good faith. How does a streaming station warrant different treatment, and in particular excessive fees, over a broadcast station?
I listen to 3WK, which is licensed and payes fees to ASCAP and BMI. They are legitimate, honest and provide a service incomparable to any broadcast service. They expose me and other listeners to artists on a variety of labels that would otherwise be unheard. Why do you seek to force the closure of an entity that provides your members and the community such a service?
Not necessarily true. At my former
employer's we had wipe the serial
as the last stage before making an image (NT).
However Microsoft's tool for doing this
has the unforutunate side-effect of restting some other values in the system as well.
a) He also happens to be dismantling regulations
and/or proceeding with ill-advised proposals
b) The EPA is only there to protect us form those
he wish to give us "what we pay for". For
less then what it costs them I might add.
What are you talking about? (95), 98, (Nt3.5),
NT4, ME, 2000, XP. There are more versions of
windows out in general circulation right now
then ever before. Just because Microsoft end
of life's one doesn't make it disappear.
And they all behave differently, Windows ME
*won't* let you use a lot of old DOS programs
(anything that requires protected mode).
What makes you think they are going to release
the code to the public? It would be viewed
by a (un)lucky few that'd have to sign
iron-clad NDA's, these are lawyers we're talking
about afterall.

Not I said the fish.
I tried it and it caused no end of page faults and blue screens.
And oh the joys if you remove your NIC
(windows won't start because it needs to load the VXD for this app which hooks into the
networking layer which gets disabled of you happen to remove your NIC
(say for diagnosis/to have it rediscovered)).
Clearcase essentially forces you into
Sybase on Windows. I do not know what
the UN*X setup uses.
I didn't find ClearCase to be all that
great. But then again I was using a
windows server for UN*X source. At the
time (presently?) yo must have seperate
databases and servers for UN*X and Windows clients.
If you want a big book with lots of narrative and detail, Stephenson. If you want well written, Larry Niven. If you want implications Robert L. Forward or Rudy Rucker (physicist, mathemetician respectively). I read them all and enjoy each in a different manner.
Just a nit, there are only two bits.
But you probably mean bits who
posses additional meaning from their position relative to other bits in a chunk of data.
In that case you are off by at least
4 orders of magnitude. A billion bits
is less than your 40 gig drive.
The terra server is ~1 terrabyte,
that's 8 trillion bits.
Correct, it may not have an infinite usable
lifetime. It will probably become poisoned eventually and require reprocessing. However a catalyst *cannot* be consumed, only reagents are consumed.
As for quantities required, yes that could be a problem, but the more meaningufl limit as they themselves have addressed is simple throughput.
As for tantalum, the composition of the catalyst is unknown and therefore speculation considering supply is just that.
a) catalyssts are by definition resuable
b) there are other source of minerals than just the Earth. (There aren't any other useful sources of hydrocarbons on the other hand).
Only roughly. PC clones came about
becuase somebody sat down and coumented how something worked, then handed it off to a virgin to implement. That's different than
re-implementing something as you look at it.
>"email" no longer *means* "electronic mail"
What?! Says who? Since when? Where?
>according to Google "email" is about ten times as common as "e-mail" on the Web
Could it be because
a) it's one keystroke less
b) most people don't know how to hyphenate in the first place? That and/or they generally don't give a flying rat's @$$ about grammar when on the internet.

Okay so upon further investigation 3WK
might be okay with tier seperate license,
but the point is still the same.

A cancer-ray station (:-P) can't provide this kind of
information, why is it reasonable to expect a streaming station to.
No, it is related to your mean body
temperature which decreases with age.

I have found their fdisk to be most useful.
Among other things it recognizes non-dos partitions.

I doubt it, some popular text

often the subject of holy wars.
Three moderators, moderation is in units of one;
at least for us non-editors.

IIRC somebody was actually working on
this. The setup is closer to a modem
than a NIC though.
No it doesn't
