They are going after the spammers that did NOT buy the list from MS! MS isn't fighting spam, it is just continuing the monopoly. (as provider of email add's for spammers)
Technically, MS won't even consider spam from the scum that bought the list as spam, since they have a 'business relationship' with MS. In most cases no matter what you do, they will still share your email also.
ahh, but the big guys still are cheaper with the windows tax than a smaller company that sells without it. I was in the same position a while back, and just decided it would be much easier and cheaper to go with a toshiba.
The existing phone companies like regulation because it shields them from further competition
Actually, the opposite is true. Regulation enables competition, without it, the babybells take over. With regulation, they are kept at bay, at least until they pay enough congresscritters to change it.
I have an online wysiwyg editor I developed for content managed, completely breaks using anything but IE (active x crap...) so should I just send that to the clients and expect them to not care when it doesn't work, or should I send them a straight text version.
Sorry, different content for different browsers is completely appropriate.
Except most of the globe doesn't have civilization anywhere near it. Even rural states would only have very localized coverage, nothing close to 'global' (IE.. My closest neighbor is 20 miles away, doesn't really pay to set up the towers needed for this type of access)
also, the jacket has to fit on the cpu and attachment points without cracking the cpu (athlon) or breaking the tabs.
submersible aquarium pumps are several magnitudes quieter than the quietest hard drive, you will NOT hear them in a normal environment. Flow rate makes very little difference, even a very small rate is enough to keep liquid circulating through the jacket. (watch the output temp as an indicator of the needed flowrate.)
I've built numerous different water cooled systems, and the $20 pump from the aquarium supply place is NOT the most complex piece. A good waterjacket for the cpu is by far the most complex and generally most expensive single piece, and also the one that is most critical for good performance.
Still need the waterjacket in this design, so it isn't really saving anything...
Exactly!! I don't think it is long before the OS will be FREE for the home user. (Think early IE and netscape, both were free for home use, business users will still tied to licensing fees.)
Once MS realizes they can make more by having COMPLETE domination by selling developer side tools instead of the OS, watch out.
Congresscritters have a talent for tacking on things to bills at the very last moment, I have a feeling this bill is not going to weaken the DMCA, but in fact strenghten it beyond what we already fear! The worst part would be that the RIAA and company could now claim that everyonw wants the controls and such, since there was such a groundswell of grass roots support, courtesy of the geeks!
The MMU was NEVER carried. It had too high of a probability to blow up, astronauts were somewhat hesitant to strap a bomb on their back...
Also, the height of the ISS orbit has very little to do with it, it is fairly easy to change the height of your orbit. They were at an entirely wrong inclination, and to correct that you have to spend ALOT of fuel &/or ALOT of time.
$250,000+ in fines, plus the fact you will broadcast about 15 minutes before your location is triangulated... not really worth it.
or for an aliternate site...

Not like no one else has done this on the net. Here are detailed instructions (at least enough to build) if you are so inclined...

a reputation as a maker of top-quality stereo equipmen
where did you hear this one?!! Sony makes bottom of the barrel audio equipment, both at home garbage and mobile trash. It is sold to the lowest common denominator who is more interested in the 300 watt rating than anything else.
A little bit of knowledge is a dangerous thing. now the tech support calls are 'my computer is broke, won't turn on...' (push the on button, or plug it in...) in the future the industry tech support calls will be 'after I reconfigured the CPU clock speed for better performance, the system won't boot, is that bad?'
(this is in INDUSTRY, not the home user I'm referring about... not many accountants out there know how to overclock, thank god!)
To get to mars quickly you need alot of propellant, but just to get there you need very little. LEO is halfway to anywhere! (actually true, most of the propellant is used just getting off the ground.)
They mentioned in the article they still have to develop it...
My guess is instead of using a single ion engine, ramp that up and use a bunch of larger ion engines, powered by the nuke. Also, since you have a lightweight nuke on board, your total weight goes down considerably compared to hauling cryo fuel, batts, and solar cells around...
Not sure if it is the car or lack of knowledge on the driver... Watch the trans slip video, refers to 5000 rpm as 500 ("it goes over 500 rpm", needle is at 5000) radio problem of radio slip video looks like he just doesn't know how to run it.
oh yeah, videos download SLOW, you get get those two at http://www.ryankramer.com/translip.wmv and http://www.ryankramer.com/radio.wmv
Agreed this is a start, but the problem isn't holding onto something, try going down the road holding the phone up to your ear. For the most part, people only have/need one hand on the wheel anyway.
The dangerous part is the lack of concentration. Handsfree adapters don't help this, if anything, make it worse, people have a subconscious tendency to look at the source of the audio when speaking...
running ~22 kilometers with 802.11 equipment. parabolic grids on each end. One end mounted 10 feet off the ground, the other probably about 100 to 150. works perfect at 2 mbs! (older wavelan cards, only capable of that anyway) (No amps either, just a lightning supressor on each end)

NORAD.... Most of the junk is tracked with radar, not optically.

Sat tracking software
Satellite tracking itself isn't too hard, it is tracking a object that is entering the atmosphere that is tough.
Sat Tracker allows you to track/image sats with a LX200 chipset telescope.

It would be illegal to sell them claiming they are 9700's, just sell them as modded 9500's...

Why? I often delete 2gb+ log files, takes forever with rm (usually rm *.log &, so I don't really care)
