...is they take a huge amount of time to build and they're owned by power companies far away from your house. Whereas you could put up solar panels on your house in a couple days and generate your own power for 20 years, without the transmission cost. With such a large demand, people are coming up with cheaper panels and soon the installs will even accelerate. Installation costs are now a big chunk of the cost.
The Air Force actually tested fuel made from coal, some years ago. Not cost effective, but at least we have plenty of coal and in a pinch it'll do. The Nazis relied on it.

Yes, military microwaves are more dangerous than civilian microwaves. Not because they are military and scary-sounding, but because if you stand in front of a radar antenna feed horn putting out kilowatts of average power, it will produce more heating damage than your microwave oven leaking microwatts. I've worked BEHIND such radar antennas for 41 years, and my eyes are pretty good and I don't have cancer. I was already stupid before I started working, though.
You can take them apart in a couple minutes with the right size torqz bit, and have yourself some really strong magnets and a bunch of LARGE flat washers. Those rare earth magnets will be worth money someday. Oh, and an aluminum case, good for....I dunno, I've built gadgets into a couple,parts tray, that's about it.
Wifi is pretty narrow band, so you don't need anything as wideband as a fractal. Stick with a dipole, make it fat to get a little more bandwidth out of it, and you'll be fine. At one frequency, the fractal is less efficient than a perfectly tuned dipole because of losses in the material. BTW a log periodic (herringbone TV antenna) is also a fractal.
I had some early ones designed by Fractal Antenna and got to go there to see their server rack crunching the numbers. Pretty cool ten years ago or so.
Nobody drinks it there. It's only for export, because it tastes like piss compared to Duvel or Grimbergen or Westmalle, or...well, anything but Jupiler.
Here in upstate NY, we're still cleaning up from Irene and that latest storm from New Orleans, and it's 62 degrees. If you want nice clean snow, I can get it for you cheap in a few months. What we need here is lower taxes.
Mainly shielded from the 3 megawatt peak airport surveillance radar that sits next to the runway. Carriers are bad too because the radar is on the island 50 feet from the catapult. You don't want the squibs holding the bombs on to go off when it swings by.
I just want to get my TV dongle to work, share with the Windoze box on my home network, and try to find where my system settings went when I upgraded to Unity. I got over Wobbly Windows pretty quick.
So why don't we just use diesel fuel? Safer than gasoline, easy to store, existing infrastructure, more efficient....oh wait, I forgot about the politics.
You mention SIP or Ekiga to anyone, you get blank stares, but everyone knows Skype. They were first and are biggest, and better alternatives like....oh, what's its name, started with an S, got bought out by Logitech....well, anyway, you get everyone crowding to a big "thing" and all the rest shrivel to a distant fanbase. Like Facebook vs. all the rest of the social sites. Like Windows vs. Linux. Google vs. Bing.
People need to be taught the meaning of open source and standardization.

Because of the mercury ions, use will be banned in the EU and California.

I and the increasing hordes of Linux enthusiasts hope he stays at the helm of Microsoft right to the end.

HP buys Yahoo for $50B, shuts it down in October, starts it up again in November

...but not quite as good. At least I can boot into Gnome 3 if I want.
Or Gnome 2.
Or Enlightenment.
Or ....hmmm, so many choices...
Funny, I haven't had any problems with the Ubuntu repositories. What's the fuss all about?
OK, we can stop posting now. You said it all. Oh, wait, you forgot to point out the article is a pile of misleading crap.
"I'm a PC. And I run Linux."
I'll give it to my granddaughters for 2 minutes. Or less.
They buy shit they don't need because Congress appropriates the money. Which is
"invested" in their districts.
I'm going out and looking mine over for a small hole that could go to a microphone.

I'm running 11.04, which makes it 4.04 versions ahead.

Well, they thought up The Ribbon themselves.
Then the next thing you will want to do, is be free of Windows altogether.
