Along those lines, are we spending more energy extracting the hydrogen from the water than we will be getting out of the whole scheme? Or is the convenience of having a distributable convenient energy source (hydricity?) worth the overhead?
I want to know why human organs were wasted on something like this when people around the world are desperately waiting for a replacement kidney and/or liver. Now THAT is playing God.
Yeah, they're really happy to see security holes opened on their system, and how they are unable to use that brand spanking new 3.4GHz system as the CPU is fully consumed running hundreds of unwanted processes. I saw 800+ at one victim's system before applying the double-whammy of Spybot and Ad-Aware (non-commercial user). I'm going to check out SpySweeper to see how it fares vs the other two for keeping on my USB keychain thumb drive for when I visit friends. Since they have a Corporate Edition of Spy Sweeper I'll see about a demo for our company.
I encourage everyone else to do the same: test these tools and see what fits your environment and wallets. Even though these don't cost all that much per-seat, the cost adds up across a few hundred seats. Start small and see if you can get buy-in from small departments. Sales groups are especially vulnerable since they provide the proper combination of really needing to check out every email for leads and some good ol' fashioned "duh, which end of the mouse is up." Next sprinkle in a few secretaries/AAs. You may not even need to move beyond that to stem the tide of unwanted software.
Bqack in the olden Solaris days there were many a diskless client that accessed whole partitions across the LAN. With the price of disk in those days you couldn't always afford to give a system a few hundred MB needed for a full local OS. The/etc part was NOT especially unique to each client, since you were most likely using bootp to give the systems their identity. All systems got the same/etc/hosts, but there were (hopefully) all in that same file.
But, since you had classes of systems, you could give different pools of addresses different/etc contents to customize the systems.
As explained during the recent Treo 650 roadshow, the reason they chose this type of file system use is that, with the low low price of flash memory cards, you are expected to use that expansion port for something like a 1GB memory card to store files in.
Why not just get firefox itself??!? The AOL-ized Netscape is just going to be a advertisement festival that I'd really rather just skip altogether.
Is AOL that delusioned, that they believe they will be able to provide any real value on top of what Firefox already brings? I imagine that they will repackage it and put it on all their mass-mailed CDs, which is a good thing overall if it gets people to use it, but who knows what spyware and adware AOL will strap onto this.
This is just another example that AOL/Netscape isn't actually going to innovate something; they just splash a new coat of paint and call it their own. That's why Netscape lost the browser wars. Thankfully its corpse was used to grow the seeds of Mozilla.
Spanish in the grade schools, but in the high schools you can choose another foreign language such as German, Italian, Spanish, etc, for your four year stay.
In a billion years everything you observe around you is going to be blown away when our Sun becomes a red giant and engulfs our planet, making Mars the new Mercury. If I were you I would take all my CDs and DVDs of family photos and have them launched into orbit around Neptune. There they will chill for a huge period of time until the Arturians finally reach the source of all that bad programming that was radiated into space, our Solaris system, just in time to watch the fireworks. There they will find the pathetic works of a now extinct civilization that looked up the stars but kept getting distracted by his boot on his fellow human's head. The few remaining trinkets and images they discover will be taken back to a museum on their world along with various Pioneer and Voyager spacecraft, only to be lost in a freak warehouse fire a month later due to faulty wiring. A hearty laugh they will give as they note to each other, "see, their little image makers stole their souls after all."
Don't programs like Spybot S&D now watch out and intercept things like host file and start menu/registry manipulation to help you detect when spyware is attempting to load?
Actually in NJ schools, our children are required to learn Spanish as a second language. My kids would otherwise never have learned it, since I last spoke it fluently with my parents and my non-Spanish speaking wife hasn't picked it up.
Nope, I don't have the burner either. =P If you can't deal with the licensing for the program restricting you, go watch chicken fighting. I'm sure they would love for you to spread the word about their sport. There's always the analog outputs and a plain DVD recorder on S-Video. If you're smart you'll get around it just like music rippers do. If not, you don't deserve a copy of the video.
Again I ask, are you honestly so bothered by the NFL's license that you would refuse to go buy that game on DVD or even just rent it should you feel the urge to watch that game from three years ago?
Do you have to load any software on the TiVo (ftp, telnet, ssh, etc?) in order to do this, or do the supported drivers for the TurboNet in the 3.0.0 on S1 allow that access already?
Exactly. I use mine to time-delay up to a month before I pitch the shows. With 196 hours of recording time on my unit, and four people picking shows, there just isn't enough space to keep it around forever. Anything you really want to keep should be stuck onto a DVD burner.
I own a TiVo and don't ever order PPV, so this does not affect me, is a non-issue, and does not make my TiVo Series1 less useful to me. Is there honestly that much stuff on PPV that you want to record and watch again that you will base your PVR buying decision on it? Honestly, are you going to watch that 90 second boxing match from 5 years ago that you paid $50 for?
I would instead think about getting a TiVo with DVD writer built in so that I could burn it to disc and watch it anywhere outside of TiVo's influence and then they can delete it all they want.
On Slashdot, a workstation is anything you can install a distro on one week, load some cool wm skinz, browse the web, read email, and then lather rinse repeat the next week with a new distro. All the while calling that work, and shrieking curses in the wind in the direction of Redmond, WA. Did I miss anything?
Don't make multiple huge changes at once. It makes it hard to troubleshoot when the feces hit the rotating blades. Doing monthly patching at the same time you are doing changes to the site flow is asking for this sort of thing.
Perhaps there are other 'internets' than the commercial and university research internets you might be familiar with. Does that actually seem far-fetched? Try for a moment to see little things like that as information slips rather than immediately going for the "he doesn't know the same things I know, so he must be dumb" knee-jerk reaction.

Dude, you still owe me 5 apples. Don't give me that "but I only have 5 apples" business. Vinny will be by later to show you what happens to deadbeats.
That's exactly how I intended it.
We're going to need all that carbon for the carbon fiber nanotubes we're going to cover everything with.
Mosaic changed the world and introduced us to the WWW. Netscape, Mozilla, and IE just improved on what had already been launched.

I think the parts about fragmenting and burning and coming down on living beings are part of the problem.

I'm sure some of the pieces of human and springs might have made it 20 miles up from the initial explosion. 17th century testing:
"OK Reginald, we've blown some stuff out of this tube to make sure it goes up really high. Now get in."
After all, I saw no mention of a parachute in case the 20 mile up belief might have been wrong.
