Or a wireless transmitter with an old-style controller plug on it; plug your SB controller into the wireless xmitter and it sends over the air to the 360.
Done it using Polycoms over the internet. It was a bit shaky at times, but our terminus was solid, so if we were going to another solid network, we could get clean signal.
I know about HDMI. I also know about HDCP, which makes HDMI damn near useless to me.
Go have fun on google. The only problem being that not many TVs have more than one input for it, and I have yet to find a switch or reciever that will take more than one. If anyone finds one, let me know.
Seriously, I have enough issues with having the current big 3 taking up space in my entertainment center; I don't need *another* console to add to the pile of cables (especially since rewiring the damn component cables, AGAIN, would annoy me - the time for a one cable hidef A/V connection has come!)
Those of us who actually *care* about how our home looks, about minimizing clutter, appreciate little things like not having to stuff another console in there. (Yes, I want to have my good looking home cake and eat my brand new console cake too.)
In order: Fuel efficiency standards, increased desire for comfort and increasing vehicle sizes, increased safety and better/more efficient stopping, and increased (believe it or not) reliability are what happened to all of those.

Hell no. You go get a drink, chat with coworkers, etc. (If you don't, you're abnormal.) Sometimes, instead of talking to a coworker or getting another cup of coffee, I waste five minutes on Slashdot or (god forbid) SI.com. This is normal.

Correct is the definitions that follow standard usage, and usage in EVERY OTHER BRANCH OF THE COMPUTER WORLD.
How fast is a kilobit per second data transmission? Is it 1024 bits/s or 1000 bits/s?
As much as it pains me, because I know they did it to screw customers, moving to the standard was correct. It *ought* to match everything else for reasons of consistency; it is more important to have current consistency across all current measurements inside of the computer than it is to have historical consistency of measurements used previously.
Naming an object orbiting Saturn, not such a good use.
Finding a new one, and studying the effects of it on solar and planetary dynamics? Using it to test solutions of n-body problems? Exploring our world, just because? *Great* use of my tax dollars. More, please.
Actually, lunatic is derived from the root word luna, from the belief that crazy people were being driven to their behavior by the supernatural effects of the full moon - hence, luna-tic.
Per kilogram. And that's per kilogram of payload - in this case, the payload is humans. The shuttle carries both human payloads and cargo payloads; would you rather I choose a different craft for comparison?
I would rather you compare the cost per human, as the payload is not cargo, but people, which have much different requirements; we know unmanned cargo is cheaper off Shuttle on expendables; the only suitable comparisons are launch costs per human between t/Space, Shuttle, and Soyuz.
Your comparison is equally valid as comparing the cost/kg for flying 1kg of cargo on a Delta II - i.e., totally ridiculous. If you insist on doing a direct Shuttle payload comparison, compare the cost to launch 6 humans and a full shuttle payload bay as a combination of t/Space's design (for the humans) and an unmanned expendable (for the cargo); there are very few cargos (really, I can only think of a couple large scientific payloads... and most of those could be redesigned) that can't tolerate being launched seperately from the humans.
It is impossible to *fake factors*. The only question would be whether, as you said, they had factored a number, instead of producing a number from factors. Since the number *is* one of the original RSA numbers (RSA-200, from an older challenge which has since been superseded by the current RSA numbers), and it does pan out, pretty much a given that they did in fact factor RSA-200.
It isn't possible. It is a flat out fact that rapid expansion/contraction cycles will kill a chip.
That said, dry ice continually applied won't do it, as most commercial products are rated down to -25C, and the heat transfer should not be efficient enough to take your CPU down below that level, especially when its generating heat in operation.
Not true. I've re-entered from Canada sans passport quite frequently (they wanted social security card as proof of residence and driver's license as photo ID); however, this circumstnace is going to be closed off in the future, IIRC.

Wake me up when a Pegasus comes back to earth and goes back up once, much less twice. In three weeks. And hey, if they can do it in such a fashion that people can survive the up and down, then we *have* a CEV already, and wouldn't it be nice to know that?
The weight of the nitrogen partial pressure is relatively insignificant, especially as it neither has to be replenished (beyond leakage losses, which are minor) nor recycled like the O2-CO2 loop. Remember that the total weight of nitrogen on the ISS is roughly 380 kg (75% by weight of air, 425 cubic meters habitable volume, 1.2 kg/m^3 is the weight of dry sea level air) which is simply not that much to worry about in terms of differential launch costs when you compare it to the costs of redesigning large amounts of electrical/electronic equipment.
The Russians already have, and NASA are working on, EVA suits with a high enough pressurization to reduce the current rigorous pre-breathe to 30 minutes, by the way. I think NASA has also worked on experimental suits designed to eliminate pre-breathe altogether (I see contrasting numbers for whether a.56 bar suit requires pre-breathe - astronautix claims it should not, while other sources claim it does. You make the call.)
I'll be surprised if most settlements aren't run at sea-level, actually. There is significant biomedical evidence showing that humans living in atmospheres similar to the Apollo/Gemini lowered pressure, full partial pressure, atmosphere suffer adverse medical effects ranging from nuisance effects like eye/ear/noise irritation to potentially significant issues like a time-related decrease in red blood cell mass (Richardson et al., 1972), though that has subsequently (Skylab era) been found to be self-regulating, though still worrisome. Some info on this can be found at one of NASA's history sites here. This publication analyzing biomedical effects of spaceflight offers some other reasons, including toxic oxidation byproducts, against a pure oxygen atmosphere.
Considering the benefits (using standard electrical/electronic components, a more normal biomedical environment) as compared to the downsides (minor one-time weight increase, pre-breathing which is likely to be eliminated with the next generation of pressure suits), I suspect future colonies will be sea-level atmosphere.

Still true, for the time being. I've done it many times since 9-11, re-entering from Canada. This is, however, being changed, IIRC in 2007 or 2008.

Yeah, you haven't flown since 2000, and it shows.
You need ID to fly now.
So update the spec to be "manned spacecraft" and specify that the only parts allowed to be changed out are X. It really isn't that hard.
