Its more "experimental" in the fact that they are experimenting with peoples reactions before they shell out the money to pay for any serious length of track, which hasn't been done before.
Note, the "lifter" is simply a very ineffective Ion drive. You have a high energy source, in which electricity jumps from one side to the other, but because of the source is spread out and ineffective (foil) it sprays electrons in all directions, but the wire on top catches the electrons that go up, which not catching the electrons that go down, (or sideways) so you have a net force downwards in the device. Much less effective that a directed ion drive, as it shoots electrons out the sides too, which simply counter eachother and waist energy, but I digress.
Thats why he said, the new theory has to account for all the collected fact. So all experimentation for old theory also has to be explanable by new theory. (Or else redo experiment to show the experiment itself was flawed)
As the other guy said clawhammer is the consumer chip. Also Quake 3 is an excellent test of memory usage, bus speed, and in general overall performance of a computer. It uses everything the computer can give it, and more. Hmm can wait to start benchmarking computers with DOOM 3
Yes, when VCRs came out the movie industry had a fit, and said any recordings of broadcast material made for any purpose without permission is illigal. The supreme court knocked that down and told them to go away. They still think its bad though, shrugs. Now they are saying that time shifting through commericals is illigal. The betamax case happend 10 years after the introduction of the VCR. So everybody was very familiar with them, and the judges themselves had partaken in the use of them. In this case, the judges have very little experience with the devices, and hopefully can gain substatual knowledge of them for this trial. I Replay should send all the fed court judges who may get this trial a free PVR? Or is that bribary, well atleast they should make sure to let the judges try it out in some manor of the other.
BTW if the women was a heavy drinker before getting pregant, most doctors say its safe for them to have one small drink daily. Its a small enough amount that it causes no harm to the baby, while stress of the mother can cause more harm. Obviously the mother should work towards quitting. But anyways.
Silk is very strong on the large scale too, if you weave it together in a rope. Obviously like any other fiber it can only handle tension not compression. Pales in comparion to nano tubes obviously:)
Yes, but they ultimatly have to pay for the bandwidth for all those pipes they fill up. Distance does matter sometimes. I can almost understand everything going to atlanta, but why to atlanta then to DC then back to atlanta? Pretty pointless if you ask me.
It costs them almost nothing to move bits thru their own network -- it's the connections to the outside that cost money. So is that why when I connect to the local university in the same city here (tallahassee,fsu), I'm routed to atlanta, then DC then back to atlanta, and to tampa, or jacksonville sometimes. The path back of which is sprint connections. Sure they are really concerned about limiting their bandwidth cost, thats why they route everything so efficiently.
Apparently, tivo notes that from day one there was a reserved section of the harddrive for this "feature." So that this recording won't take up any of your 40MB available for recording shows. It also states you are never forced to watch this promo, and that if you had something else scheduled, or were watching tv at the time (it will prompt a viewer and the viewer can say yes or no, in which after a minute goes by it assumes yes, but can be still stopped later) It won't record the show. Obviously this is a form of money making from TiVo? But I don't see where the downfall is?
AOL started Mozilla, and they provide funding and support to mozilla, in turn they get a good browser. But mozilla was given its freedom a long time ago. If AOL completly dumped mozilla, it could continue on its own, mainly because a few other companies like SUN are contributing money to it too. Though it would be hurt badly, its not "owned" per say.
Yes, and it must be repeated again, this tranfer rate is faster than your average harddrive. So while you may be able to send more data via your boxcar, you must also include the time it takes to copy it to the DVDs and then from the DVDs. Youd loose.
As well as of course movies distributed in encrypted format needs to be filled in an unencrypted form. The LOB may at its descreason include a fee for storage of source code and the movies, which should not extend past current commerical massive storage cost. And be a one time fee.
Proposal (by me): You no longer need to send a copy of works to the Library of Congress in order to receive copyright, but it still needs to be done if you plan on publishing a large quantity, especially if you hope to legally protect the work. This is done, so that once it goes out of copyright, a copy will exist at the LOB so that it can be copied when it reaches public domain, and won't get lost. I propose that any software in which you expect legal protection of your copywrite, needs to not only be submitted to the LOB, but must include the source code. This source will be sealed away, from public view untill the copyright ends of course. But will be also accessable by a court order (not contestable by the copyright owner), to government agencies wishing to examine the security of any systems that are vital to government interest. These security reports then (excluding any source code, and given reasonable time for the copyright owners to fix the security hole) will be available to the public. The source code will also be accessable by a court order during any court cases involving the copyright holder in which it is deemed nesseary.
Yes, but as the speed of hardware increases, it has been comming increasingly popular to add these additional layers for cross compatability. Java for instance (which was horribly slow in its first versions, but is definatly pickign up speed) Adding this linux layer, allows the hardware to run a vast amount of things, where before the hardware could only run things specifically tailored for the device. This allows companies to produce products for many devices without having to completly rewrite them for each device. Thus lowering time to market, and total cost of such devices and associated software.
If you just have hardware and no software, what does it hurt to let the kids mess things up. Hell find the bright kids like that, and create a class in which the ultimate project is to create a system management solution for the school. The bright kids who know how to mess things up, created the system and wouldn't want to destroy it. And hopefully at the same time, created some security in the knowledge that other students might mess things up. Of course this is being done on only a few computers till the system they develop has been finalized and a real system admin can check its security. Till this point in time you leave your old system in place for the rest of the students to use. Once the system goes live, the new computer students each year train the previous computer students in the system, and instill respect of the existing system untill the new students start thinking it as their own to protect. Of course no sensative data should be kept on these computers, but that shouldn't be a major problem.
Linux the "Kernel" can be ported to run on just about anything. What the kernel does is expose the hardware in a more easily accessable manor to programs and the OS UI in which you run. If we had the full source Mac could be made to run on Linux (in runs on BSD right now, something very close to linux) as well as MS Windows also. Pretty much any program you can imaging could run ontop of this simple extraction layer we call the kernel that can be ported to most any device. Understand? no? oh well.

Hurd may actually be released soon. I think your much safer with Duke Nukem: Forever, or the 1GHZ Transmeta

s/is base/in base/
Sorry.
no!!, its whats 6 times 9. Which actually gives 54, but gives 42 is base 13. Though Douglas Adams swears the base thing was a pure accident.

You really have to turn your speakers all the way up. If they arn't powered speakers, you probably won't hear a thing.
He said he was a "15 year Mac user" not a 15 year old Mac user. Big difference.

Your right, sorry netscape and aol are all a blur to me latly. Watch out as I next try to claim that AOL created Mosaic (spelling?)

Do you have anything to back up that last paragraph? That seems highly douptfull?
Sorry I wrote it incorrectly, what I meant, was that everything before second paragraph was meant to be reflective of the current truth. Sorry.
