I remeber the old Star Fleet Battles strategy game. Which you played with "sheets" representing your ship, dice, and a hex map. I still have a lot of the game material buried in a box somewhere. Anyway, missles and drones were a BIG part of the weaponary. Especially for races like the Orions I seem to remember. The Romulans had Plasma Torps, but I think that was a later development after the first Romulan war.
Yes, it would have made much more sense to use more primative weapons. I would believe missles and maybe some gausse magnetic projectile cannon, and some lasers before phasers and photon torpedos.
Interesting to note, according to the "old" star trek material I have, namely the Star Fleet Tech manual printed in the 1970's. The Romulan war was ended and the Netrual zone treaty negotiated using communications and the Federation and Romulan didn't meet face-to-face. Sounds like a nasty war.:)
What exactly are you asking? One "uses" terrorism by planning/performing acts of terrorism. Just like one uses a computer by logging in. The Marquis and factions of the Bajorians "Conducted" terrorist acts in several episodes and other acts have been referred to in the Star Trek Universe. I'm wasn't trying to make any political commentary, I'm just trying to make a point concerning the Star Trek Universe. So I fail to understand your question concerning what I mean by "uses terrorism".
The Terrorism idea has already been worn out on Star Trek too. Remember the Bajorans from DS9? Or how about the Marquis from Voyager? Both groups used terrorism. Not to count several episodes of TNG that also had terrorism. In fact, one could argue the Bajorans are supposed to be the "Palestinians" of the Gamma Quadrant.
Almost every good idea has been written about 2 times or more, so all the new episodes are just like wiping your ass with the same toliet paper you used yesterday. I can't even take "Enterprise". I suffered through several episodes and felt like I had dated my ex-girlfriend from years ago, and she wasn't attractive anymore. Besides, my logical Brain has a problem watching a show that is supposed to pre-date Star Trek, where all the tech seems 100 years beyond the orginal Star Trek and the ideas are 100 years beyond the orginal Star Trek. And the ship looks like a Ferrari next to the old NCC-1701. They could have make things look a "little" less sophisticated.
Yeah, sure. Like Cobol, RPG, and C are dead. Yet there are still jobs and a lot of banks and telcoms STILL run Cobol MF systems to this day. PL/I is dead. C++ still lives.
Comparing one C++ compiler (gcc) against the Java JVM on one operating system is not much of a test. I love Java, but this is almost something like microsoft would do. Test one specific OS, compiler, and configuration, and then make a blind, far-reaching statement. A fair test would include several platforms and compilers.
Did you ever consider maybe there were more parasites in you already then in the water? Maybe the bleach killed them and your body was doing a good core dump...
I agree to a point, maybe for network admin or user/security config. But it only helps for items Redmond has decided we should be able to see.
Windows has the registry, which is worse than any text file. A lot of advanced stuff has to be "tweaked" in the registry. I had experience with this as a C++ developer. Windows 2000 wasn't giving enough memory for services, so we had to "Tweak" the registry to get our application to run. We had to perform many other numerious "Tweaks". Windows does have a nice GUI for simple stuff, but for advance configuration, you frequently have to go in the registry and change "Hex" or Binary values, which is much worse than any text file on Unix ever was. And this was usually done off of an obscure technical article on the microsoft website.
Agreed. I used to work for a company where we did development of a C++ product that was cross platform and had to compile on Unix and Windows. We used the Visual C++ compiler on Windows 2000, but we had to purchase a UNIX shell Toolkit, so we could run the compile and installation scripts which were all written in Unix. And it gave us a decent shell on Windows. With Unix shell scripting most things were much eaiser to automate on Unix. But I did like the Visual C++ debugger.
Uhhh, Where did you come up with that? Linux can even fit on a floppy for a basic kernal: http://www.linuxrouter.org/. I've installed Linux for years. Even with all the extra open source software that comes with a distribution and Gnome, I never got more much more than a Gig of disk used.

Taking everything about the "Holy Grail" and "Knights Templar" aside, the freemasons were originally behind the architechture and construction of many churches and cathedrals. Hence "Freemason"
Please read quote below from "Freemasons; Mortar and Mysticism". Note there are dozens of other sources but I don't have time to list them.
"The term freemason appears as early as 1375 in the records of the city of London. It referred to working masons who were permitted to travel the country at a time when the feudal system shackled most peasants closely to the land. Unlike the members of other crafts of the time - smiths or tanners for example - the masons gathered in large groups to work on majestic, glorious projects, moving from one finished castle or cathedral to the planning and building of the next. For mutual protection, education, and training, the masons bound themselves together into a local lodge - the building, put up at a construction site, where workmen could eat and rest. Eventually, a lodge came to signify a group of masons based in a particular locality."

The Apple Lisa had a GUI in 1983. And of course Xerox had the mouse and a GUI system several years before at the PARC labs. I "worked" on a Xerox printing system that had a windows type GUI running over CPM. Definately pre-microsoft. Microsoft is the worlds best "copy-cat" as most of what they do is copy other peoples ideas.
Actually, the money was split down the middle, democrats revceived almost half of it:
Overall, Microsoft and its employees were the country's fifth-largest political donor in the 2000 election -- contributing $4.7 million to politicians and their committees. Republicans received about 53 percent of that money.

Never had as many problems with Linux, Solaris, UNIXWARE Irix or HP-UX in almost 10 years of dealing with various versions of them. My point is SCO Open Server is a Piece of crap and so is SCO.

man -k "keyword" is all you have to do to search in Unix/Linux. And once you know the command, it rarely changes.

Windows is NOT free. Preinstalled copys are paid for by the OEM, who tags the cost onto the PC.
Thats because Linux/Unix admin is usually:
/etc/conf/somefile

man "something"
vi
restart daemon or reboot and then check the logs.

Isn't Microsoft secretly funding SCO's legal fees? Besides visual C/C++ doesn't compile very well in Unix. :)
Hmmm, who did apple steal the code from? Xerox? Not likely, since the MC68000 CPU from Motorola was brand new.
The Apple Lisa had a GUI in 1983. And of course Xerox had the mouse and a GUI system several years before at the PARC labs.
