Are you a paid apologist for paypal, or what? What is your burning interest in playing paypal's slashdot watchdog? I think some disclosure is in order here.
That's not true. Halon 1301 isn't used anymore because it tends to break down into nasty chemicals at 900+ degrees F. Well, at least that's what the Navy told us... The tree huggers say it's cause it's an ozone depleting gas.
Nasty that. Take a look at the component molecules of Halon. Bifluromethane somethin'er other.
I know its every Linux nut wet dream, but if we're going to keep hearing about this gizmo shouldn't it be at least labeled as an advertisement so the rest of us can move on?
Nobody reads it anyway. Just speculate wildly and pretend you read it all the while making gestures while talking into YOUR DAMN CELLPHONE while reading/. on your DAMN TOUCHSCREEN CONSOLE! Damn you all! I'm getting a touchscreen jammer.
The canadians already do this, and cheaper and use the much less used 902Mhz ISM band. See: www.waverider.com And the install (that I took part in...) www.bwig.net
Very neat stuff, kind of expensive to do a whole town but way cheaper than laying cable.
The answer to your question is an unequivocable NO. This is one of the biggest problems when dealing in backhaul microwave, customer spends $100,000 to put up a 3DS3 hop and somebody sticks a highrise smack dab in the middle of it (the path that is). Guess what their recourse is? Move the antenna higher or suck wind.
I looked at this awhile ago, and saw that hideous price tag. Have any geeks out there thought of using this as a gift for mom who doesn't have email and just want to play solitaire?
You people got it all wrong. A 45 mile hop is no big deal. You just need a hop in the middle. Any water towers around? 4 DS3 radios and you've got 45mbs of bandwidth.
Hmm, not to seem trollish here, but how could you know if it does or doesn't represent "us" (There's that neat labeling system again) if you've only seen what the CN executives consider wholesome enough for you to see? Gundam Wing, Sailor Moon, DBZ, Pokemon, yes these are all Anime... But you can't say it doesn't represent you when you haven't seen Martian Successor Nadeisco or Dragon Pink or Kodomo No Omocha (Child's Toy) or, well you get the idea. I know I'm a sugar high anime crack addict.

You fool! You've slashdotted the dictionary! Now how will the hordes of grammar Nazis be able to correct teh funny?

Seriously now, did you just google that or did you actually know that?

See, he's got it all wrong already. It's the Circle K, and strange things are afoot there.
Seriously, there was more greek in that thing than the local sammitch shop. Mmm. Gyro...
You jackass. Since we started realizing how stupid patenting genes was. Read the friggin' article. Quote, "This is just the tip of the iceberg."

I must have hurt somebodys feelings with that. Waaaaaaah.

Is for architechture, like in "Distraction" by Bruce Sterling. Think of that! Build your house with a bunch of homeless people!
Whatever happened to that ca. 1992 era shuttle simulator with the 400 page manual? I remember playing it on a Mac SE30. Anyone?
So uhh, would these be Speakers for the Dead?

No fear, it's just the heating element to keep the CPU warm which as we all know, a warm CPU decodes MP3s much more, uh... Warmly.
Wouldn't digital pants be much better? I mean, just think of the possibilities!
(mental image of CowboyNeal... digital pants... IRQ conflict)
Yuck, maybe not. Stick to the mouse/keyboard combo thanks.
Or else you'se is gonna take a trunk ride to O'Hare long term parking.
That's cause they are using Flash 4. They work just annoyingly fine in NS6.1 and NS6.2. (So long as you have flash installed.)

Editorial jokes aside... It hasn't even been a month for petes sake.
What's funny about that is that the Ameritech telemarketers hawking this fantastic service don't show up on caller-id here in Chicago...

Anybody who'se not afraid to admit they like hentai anime in a major newspaper can rock on IMO.
