We have about 1000 hosts. We get maybe 1 notice a month. It's never legitimate use. It's always sharing of copyrighted material. There's an exception process for legitimate use (grabbing Centos 5 for example). But that never happens. It's always illegal. Freedom is not at stake. Just freedom to disobey the law...
Most people forget that all higher organisms depend heavily on micribiota for their survival. For example, most of the complex micronutrients (e.g. B-comlplex vitamins) in plants are generated in soil bacteria. For these drugs, look to the rhizobacteria as the source of the genes for these compounds. The commensal relationships these bacteria sustain with particular plant species could be important, but it's possible these things could be grown in vitro and yield a nice industrial solution.
I truly love Firefox, but I switched back to Safari because it properly handles dual monitor setups. Most of the Mac users I know have at least 2 monitors. Macs invented the damn thing back in the '80s (ok maybe X terminals did that, too, but I digress). The most annoying thing is the popups showing up on the opposite monitor from the one showing the current (topmost) window! Ugh! So-so usable for keyboarding, but not for mousing!
Recognize that a lot of clueless developers depend on drag-and-drop coding from Visual Studio and whatnot and quite often use "widgets" (the generic term) that require IE, rather than either looking for cross-platform choices, or rolling their own. Visual Studio 2005 is a lot better (haven't tried anything newer), but there's a lot of IE-centric apps. still being developed, no doubt.
Submitting work to your instructor typically conveys certain non-exclusive perpetual rights to the materials upon the school. It does not, however, strip your rights to the materials. Unless you signed an agreement, it most certainly does NOT allow the school to transfer those rights to a third party. This is a good fight and I hope it sets precedent.
that I made to the VP of Education Sales at Apple that time. OS X 10.0 had just been introduced. It was so new, so different, and so ridiculously bad that I told them "it's just as much work to move people to Windows," so unless this improves, that's what we're doing. And we had already started that migration during the "bad times." However, Apple dug in their heels and kept improving things. Today, we've reversed that migration and more and more people are asking for Macs. Because Apple has been able to develop (or incorporate) enough methods for enterprise management, we're happy to oblige...
at WWDC 2006, explaining that we would pay extra for Mac OS X Server, if it were possible to run it under VMware ESX. The ability to run Mac OS X (Server or otherwise) under Fusion or Parallels Desktop or even VMWare/Parallels Workstation would also provide a strategic advantage and encourage us to maintain our subscription levels (well over 400 seats today).
Would "virtualizable" OS X lead to piracy? Probably. But as with most piracy, it would not necessarily impact actual sales. Pirates steal things they wouldn't have ever paid for anyway...
from anyone who thinks a name and password constitutes "two factor" authentication. This is a single factor, just in in two parts. Two factors would be "something you know" (name and password) and "something you have" (a token). Three factor could include "something you are" (retina or fingerprint scan).
I mean safer for the rest of us if a tanker full of it derails. It will fairly quickly become a non-issue in the environment (except a few dead fishies). Ammonium perchlorate ain't as nice.
Oh, I wasn't aware of that. Then yeah, a biprop system makes sense. H2O2 is definitely a safer (handlingwise) oxidizer than ammonium perchlorate or whatever. But I've never seen a "pure combustion" engine that didn't have some kind of rocket motor bell, as opposed to the "air conditioner nozzle" sort of exhausts in the video. Oh well, more power to them. Sounds like they're rocket scientists, after all;)
And at some point, ALL rockets are "fundamentally similar." Ignite something, squirt exhaust out one end, and you have a rocket...
In that case, kerosene is the propellant. H202 is the oxidant. Hydrogen peroxide is used quite frequently in this manner. However, the Blue Origin bird uses only H202 (and presumably a catalyst). Very different technology, indeed.
Does anyone else see the reductive reasoning of the researchers? If a sequence doesn't exist in nature, then it must be deadly! Occam would state that no, it's simply that it must have been less useful than any other sequences throughout the history of life on this planet, thus it has been selected for against.
Were I to use the reserachers' logic, I'd have to conclude that no mail showed up in my mailbox on Tuesday because the mailman was murdered.
The Bell "rocket pack" of the 1960s uses the same principal - H2O2 + catalyst (silver). It creates instant heat and exhaust. The problem is, it's very heavy for its lifting capability. You can't really carry enough to make a lengthy flight. Bell's pack lasted about 21 seconds. Neat for Superbowl halftime shows, but that's about it. if they're using this as a testbed for guidance/control and othery flight systems, then great. But if they're intending to launch anything H2O2 powered "into space," I wouldn't put much money on it...

Everybody knows T. Rex walked along with Adam and Eve. Well, maybe not "knows," but "believes."

THIS is the only possible result!
Or light cycles. Gotta ride the cycles...
that Wikipedia is flawed because of a lack of editorial value. That's what I've said all along...
Everybody knows lice and humans are only 6000 years old, and there were two lice on the Ark with Noah and his (incestuous) family...
It's even right there in the quote.

If it's available, I'll use it. This allows me to shut off my radio and save battery life!
First flying penises, now open sores? Oh, wait... Never mind!
and never noticed it. I hope for its sake I didn't have chili that day...
