thats a negative......the personel hatches are very small on our subs and on the russians. you would be able to gain access through the missile hatches but you'd once again have to cut through the doors as they were not designed to be opened from the outside.
diving to these depths isn't that uncommon on tri-mix.
your decompression times do suck.
the divers can reach the sub in a relatively short amount of time.
biggest problem ?
you can't get into the sub while wearing your rig. you'd have to cut holes in the sub to get into it which would probably lead to problems for those people inside the sub.
Bowie, I don't talk because quite honestly I've nothing to say to you. I've stated publicly before about this matter and yet you contunue to call me a liar, a cheat and a thief. I've got nothing to say to you anymore as I have better things to do.
Your absolutely right, Coldstorage sounds nothing like SoureForge. Thats because I was allowed to take the basic principles of Coldstorage and expand and improve on them. VA allowed me the flexibility to take the original project and turn it into something else entirely. The basic priciples of Coldstorage are found within SourceForge so if You feel the need to ask yourself "Whatever happened to Coldstorage?" Just point your web browser of choice at http://sourceforge.net
As for your interview at Linux.com back on November 3rd, 1999. Think about it. We released SourceForge to the public on November 17th, 1999. Do you really feel that we wrote 2MB of PHP code and setup 16 servers in 2 weeks ? It isn't possible.
As for my relationship with Trae, I don't know if we could be considered "best friends". Yes we are friends, I cannot deny that. But I'm friends with Chris DiBona, Mandrake, Raster, and San Mehat as well. The fallacy of your statement: "It wouldn't surprise me in the least that what I told Trae idea-wise for weeks on end last year may have ended up on Tony's desk as work orders." is that I don't work for Trae anymore than I work for Chris, Raster or Mandrake. He's not in my reporting structure at all. Period. And I didn't take orders from anyone concerning the building of SourceForge. Tim Perdue, Drew Streib and myself sat around after LWCE in August and came up with the principles of SourceForge. We defined the information and system architectures behind it on our own. As a matter of fact, there was only about 10 people at VA other than us that knew what we were doing and Trae wasn't one of them. So give it a rest.
Well..I'm going to lose a few karma points for this but here goes:
Dude, You need to quit hitting the crack pipe. We did not steal any ideas from any group of volunteers. The planning and development of SourceForge was done by 4 people. Those 4 were Tim Perdue, Drew Streib, Uriah Welcome, and myself. When planning and developing SourceForge we received no input from the community until after the site launch on Nov. 17th, 1999. We also received no input from VA. We worked on SourceForge in a "black ops" environment. By this I mean that we were kept separate and shielded from normal channels within VA. I know this because I set up the structure to be this way.
As far as giving back to the community we have tried since we launched the site to listen to the direction the community has wanted to take SourceForge. This is the community at work. Period. We also released the code under the GPL so that others could help improve our code and if they were so inclined they could use the code to setup their own site. We are also currently in the process of allowing other developers to work on the "live" code per se to help improve SourceForge.
I'll lose some karma points for this but I agree with you. After spending the last couple of years (10-12 hours a day) firmly planted in front of a monitor my wrists and forearms would begin to ache. I looked at a couple of ergonomic keyboards to help relieve the strain and found that the M$ keyboard relieved the strain and was the easiest to re-train my hands to use. Using it in conjuction with a Logitech Trackman Marble FX has completely fixed the problem for now.

might pass the athlon. But then again maybe not. I think that AMD has been listening to people and giving them what they want while Intel has been riding their laurels for the past couple years. Intel had better be afraid.
I was already frightened of Corel. This news does nothing to alleviate that fact. I wonder if Microsoft will attempt to rid itself of this holding. They continue to say that they have competition in the OS market due to linux. Now they own 4% of a company that's using linux to attempt to redefine their corporate strategy and markets? Doesn't make sense to me.
I'm guessing that the NSI didn't give it back to them after the lawsuit was dropped was due to the fact that NSI is seriously screwed up internally. I spoke with one of their employees at LWCE and he seemed pretty cool but he said that the tech support people there were morons. He also told ne that he registered his domains with register.com so go figure.
Microsoft Office is their Cash Cow. Who cares about the Operating System? It's just a delivery mechanism anyways. I'm sure that the Guys over at Applix (Hey Bernie, Norm) and at StarOffice/Sun would love for M$ to open the Office Suite up but I think we'd have a better chance of seeing M$ relocate to Antartica than for them to open up Office.
Bruno, was burned to death in the Square of the Flowers, in down-town Rome, on February 16, 1600. In 1889, when freethinkers and rational religionists erected a statue of him, in the same flowered square where he was murdered by the Catholic Church, they were condemned by Pope Leo XIII.
He was executed primarily for his belief that the world was not flat, that it was indeed round and that the Earth revolved around the Sun. He also claimed that that the Sun was just a star and that millions of stars have planets about them.
For these claims, AND for the crime of advancing the notion that priests had no right to use violence in attempting to convert disbelievers, the church brought charge against him.
Yeah it looks as though Sun finally pulled their heads out of their asses on this one. Now if they would only do the same with StarOffice and the SCPL I might actually be convinced to no longer speak disparingly about them.

now they can surf anonymously and determine the best way to build improvised explosive devices or whatnot.
they also will get the benefit of goatse.cx
try EVE Online...there's really no leveling per se as found in most traditional MMORPGs. it's all skill based and you can train skills offline.

I didn't "invent" sourceforge. The original SourceForge site was the efforts of:
Myself, Tim Perdue, Drew Streib, Uriah Welcome
We also got tons of help from the following people:
Quentin Cregan, Steve Westmoreland, Chris DiBona, Joe Arruda, Jeff Ritter, Patrick Wong, Neil Doane, Robert Flemming and Kit Cosper.

We have accepted patches from contributors. We don't accept every patch however. But then again neither does Linus.

That's all...

Sorry,
i was recalling from memory. Where in the hell is my encyclopedia when I need it.
Actually here are a few more facts,
Bruno, was burned to death in the Square of the Flowers, in down-town Rome, on February 16, 1600. In 1889, when freethinkers and rational religionists erected a statue of him, in the same flowered square where he was murdered by the Catholic Church, they were condemned by Pope Leo XIII.
He was executed primarily for his belief that the world was not flat, that it was indeed round and that the Earth revolved around the Sun. He also claimed that that the Sun was just a star and that millions of stars have planets about them.
For these claims, AND for the crime of advancing the notion that priests had no right to use violence in attempting to convert disbelievers, the church brought charge against him.
Yeah it looks as though Sun finally pulled their heads out of their asses on this one. Now if they would only do the same with StarOffice and the SCPL I might actually be convinced to no longer speak disparingly about them.
