That only started after the 2000 election. During the 2000 election, different news organizations picked different colors, but then someone started talking about the maps that they saw, and referred to "red states" and "blue states," and it's been standardized ever since.
Appropriations for the army are limited to two years. Other appropriations may be for any period of time. There has, in fact, been talk from time to time of changing the procedure in congress to make all the major appropriations bills two-years bills, so that they only have to deal with half of them every year.
I think they normally push them into an orbit that will degrade so that they'll burn up on reentry. That takes less energy than putting them on a trajectory that leaves Earth's orbit.
The real problem is junk that doesn't have working thrusters and communications so that they can tell it to de-orbit.
So can they do this without paying each Celebrity and Movie studio for the rights to use the names? That question will probably keep some lawyers busy for a while.
At Disney World, they require finger prints when you enter the park if you want to be able to re-enter or switch to another park (if you have a ticket that allows that). At least the government doesn't directly get them, but who knows what they're doing with them or how long they keep them. (This was several years ago; I don't know if it's changed.)
This is expected to come within our moon's orbit, right? So what are the odds of it impacting the moon? And if it were to do so, what would the impact do to the moon's orbit?
From the pdf file linked from the Intel site, I think it's AAK36, as it's the only one that mentions the word "spurious." This has to do with writing to the interrupt vector table when a local interrupt is pending. That doesn't look terribly serious from my perspective. If I'm mistaken and it's a different errata, please reply with the correction.
Suppose someone wrote a worm that could get access to the system as a user. Then all they need is to find a signed package with a privilege-escalation bug, and whether it's installed or not, the malware could exploit it, gaining root access.
But apart from that, I can see where this would be nice from a single-user system standpoint.
That's what I found. It's important to note that the Verizon 3G and the T-Mobile 3G networks are incompatible, so you can't just get a Verizon Droid, unlock it, and use it with T-Mobile. (Even if you could, it would be expensive, and who knows how hard it will be to unlock the phone.)
If Verizon isn't paying for a significant exclusive contract on the phone, then this makes sense. Otherwise we might be seeing a year or two delay, in which time some other phone will come out with all the same features.
No, you're confusing Droid with Android. Droid is a specific Android-based phone made by Motorola and currently only available through Verizon. Droid is also, by most measures, significantly better than any other Android-based phone.
Yes, note that you used the singular. It can become an access point. Not multiple access points. Try running a single physical device in multiple modes at the same time or as multiple access points at the same time. You can do that with Mad WiFi, but not with anything else that I'm aware of with Linux.
Yes, you can do virtual access points with the Mad WiFi drivers, but I'm not aware of any other drivers that support that. I use this to have my Linux home server provide both a public open network and a private encrypted network with a single physical wireless card.
But it's certainly not standard functionality, or I could have used any supported WiFi card and not be tied to a specific driver.
No resistance so far. I know several town officials support the idea, knowing that the EPA will have to sign off on any project after verifying that it won't damage the work they've done. At this stage, it's just talk, though.
It's interesting that the land is privately owned. I suspect most sites like this are owned by the government or are essentially unowned (owned by a bankrupt corporation), as usually whoever owns the site gets sued to pay for the cleanup. I'm not sure how this managed to end up in private hands.
We have one of the original Superfund sites in my town of Ashland, Massachusetts. The Nyanza dye factory dumped all sorts of waste products for decades before being shut down. Now there's a huge field where they've sealed in most of the waste, and the owner of the property is looking at putting in a solar farm on the cap with wind turbines along the perimeter. It seems like a perfect site for that sort of development, and there's not much else that can be done with the property.
I'm pretty sure I remember seeing him smoking, but I could be remembering wrong. It's been quite a while since I've seen him. (I'm a long-time EMC employee, so I saw him at quarterly company-wide events; I may have spoken to him once or twice, but I can't say that I knew him.)
The whole argument that kernel modules must be GPL is seriously flawed. A kernel module is just another application that the OS can run, albeit by a different API at a different security level.
There is some issue of compiling against the kernel header files (which I believe are GPL, not LGPL), but arguably, they're defining the API, not generating code, so the resulting code should still not infringe on the Linux copyright or be considered a derivative work.
If they're going to decommission a shuttle, why not leave it at the station? It would provide some redundant facilities, extra living space, and most importantly, engines to boost the orbit periodically (one of the main things the shuttles do now besides delivering supplies and new components).
I thought that with the transition, the old analog frequencies were being reclaimed. Some of the ATSC stations will change frequencies and broadcast digital where the analog used to be. So are they delaying the completion of the transition to allow for this nightlight service? When will we have our stations at their final frequencies?
I am a city official. I'm on my town's Planning Board, and we do consider light pollution when approving commercial site plans. We can't do much about light reflecting off of the ground, though we do try to minimize lighting when businesses are closed.
So if I'm reading this right, they've taken what would normally be a dual-card solution and put it on a single card. This should have been an obvious next step.

So they're moving to DirectX, but they're also running on Mac and Linux? I don't get it.

AAK36 for the Xeon version. AAN31 is the code for the i7 and i5 version. It's the same errata, just a different code number for different chips.
From the pdf file linked from the Intel site, I think it's AAK36, as it's the only one that mentions the word "spurious." This has to do with writing to the interrupt vector table when a local interrupt is pending. That doesn't look terribly serious from my perspective.
