Yes - Telesoftware from P700 on BBC2. This was discontinued a long while ago though.
There were also teletext adaptors from several outfits including Morley for the BBC Micro that connected to your TV aerial and downloaded the content straight into the computer.
Neither my router nor ISP support IPv6, however I'm running a SixXS tunnel, so my IPv6 router is my main server. And for some reason I've been assigned a/48. No idea what I'm going to do with them all...
It would be interesting to see if a more fair and commercially balanced TV-scape would give rise to some healthy competition (instead of a scramble to stay alive) that would raise the quality, and maybe even the breadth, of programming across the board if all the broadcasters got a share of the licence fee and they all had to put up with the same commercial realities.
Since it's supposed to boot and run from an SD card which can also be written to from another machine, it's effectively impossible to brick the thing. If you bork your boot sector, just rewrite the boot image from your other computer (in the classroom scenario, the teacher can do this) and you're ready to go again.
3 is not an MVNO. They may have recently set up a network sharing agreement with T-Mobile, but that doesn't make them a virtual network. The basic idea is that all existing T-Mobile 3G towers now transmit both T-Mobile and 3 identifiers, and same goes for the existing 3 ones.
However, their network is a bit patchy, but their data plans aren't too bad - but watch their out-of-bundle rates of 10p/MB on contract or £1/MB on PAYG.
Compare to Orange's "mobile broadband" offering where their bundles might not be quite as generous but out-of-bundle is 1.5p/MB.
You're probably syncing at a significantly higher rate than 2Mbps. Demon Business 2000 (no longer available) was based on the ADSL MAX platform which is an up-to-8Mbps service, and throttled to 2Mbps at Demon's end. Perhaps Wharf T&T either haven't applied the throttle or when they have bandwidth to spare they lift the restriction.
Not necessarily true. I use a netgear DG834GT router with slightly modified firmware. When I used the 1.02.04 (or earlier) release, an SNR of 5dB was shaky and if it reached 4dB the packet loss would go through the roof and the line would fall over. With the new ADSL driver in the 1.02.09 release it's stable at just 2dB, and again I use a modded firmware (UberGT) that allows me to override (to some extent) the exchange-set target SNR figures, which also allows me to get a 1.5Mbps connection on my up-to-8Mbps service.
Alpha particles are pretty large entities, being helium nuclei (two protons and two neutrons), as a result can only travel a few centimetres through air so any machine's case will stop them completely.
Beta particles are electrons or positrons) and can reach about 9 metres through air but less than 5mm through aluminium.

FedEx only shipped a box - it's hard to imagine they knew the exact contents.
Aren't they supposed to supply an accurate list of the contents of that box on the customs declaration form?
+1.
I usually have DI.FM's Trance or Vocal Trance channels tuned in.
No, that video is still down.

Light nuclei? They're just photons.

Have you ever tried to watch American television?
eBay BOUGHT PayPal, they did not invent it.
386SX25, 4MB RAM, 200MB HDD. Red Hat 4.1 (old numbers).

I hope they don't kill off i586 support - that would lock out those extremely low-power Geode CPUs.
This is why I rarely read /. these days. Far too much waffle.
"defence" is the correct spelling in English.

BBC web content is only commercial-free within the UK.
A keyboard. How quaint.
It also proves the on-board tech to help them remain undetected worked.
A few google searches by her...
How would she do that if she doesn't know how to connect?
Not a good one, they'll definitely know where to send the bill.
How else do you puncture the film across the top of tray?
Allow me to introduce the "fork". Most models allow you to puncture the film four times in one go.
Finally, nature's own population regulation mechanism kicks in.

A bit out of date but found from a quick google for "Siemens Staines Middlesex".
