Actually, Methanol/Water Injection on Diesel engines is like NOS on a gasser. The Methanol does make the diesel burn cleaner like the hydrogen in this article, and the water cools the EGTs (Exhaust Gas Temp) enough to keep everything from melting down. Virtually all race cars run on Methanol too.
Posted street weight limits only apply to commercial vechiles. If you don't have a class A or B license, you can ignore them. It's prefectably acceptable to drive a 45,000 Bus conversion motorhome down a street marked 6,000 gross limit. Read the CA commercial license book.
Driving 80MPH between San Fran and LA on the I5 using my Sprint PCS card. The laptop sits nicely on the steering wheel. I wonder if that violates that new law stating you can't have a screen visable from the drivers seat. "Honest officer, I was looking up directions on maps.yahoo.com. There's an exemption for mapping!".
Interesting how we see strong-arm tactics against some aussie warez-puppy
I believe this is the group that worked with DVD-jon to crack DeCSS. The MPAA has greased a lot of political pockets to get revenge for this act. It's that simple, he was not just singled out for no reason.
Expect new laws to be passed where taking a digital picture of a building is a $280,000 fine.
You know, I realize you mean to be joking, but to an extent this is already the truth. When you take a picture of a building, the owner of the building holds the copyright on the image as they can claim their building is a form of art. You have the right to take these pictures, but if you publish them you're guilty of copyright infringement (or as the media likes to put it, theft). In France you can take a picture of the Iffel tower during the day, but the electric company claims copyright on the lighting so you cannot publish pictures taken at night. Just like as there are model release forms to give you rights to publish pictures of people, there are property release forms for buildings. Just try and get a corporation to sign one of these!
I'm not sure how you're going to get bad data into $_SESSION, I think you really mean to check the $_COOKIE array. Fornatually, there's a simplier way to check all requested variables:
if ($_REQUEST['GEEKLOG_DIR']) die('nice try buddy.');
The uploads on Sprint go faster than the downloads. I can get 20KB which is actually above their 140Kbit speed claims. Downloads range in the 12 to 14KB range. When I lived in Silicon Valley (Redwood City) I couldn't get DSL/cable so Sprint wound up being my primary ISP.
San Francisco. I called the nearest Ritz and they didn't have them but gave me the addresses of stores that did. I went to the Ritz at 499 Castro St, but 2185 Chestnut St and 2300 16th St are suppose to carry them too.
I never did find any Cue Cats at Radio Shack. They were always out.:(
They informed me at the store that it was a 1MP camera, not 2. The packaging does not say anything reguarding this. Also it does NOT include 4x6 prints, it's includes a cd with the pictures however. This matches what the box says:
FREE Photo CD FREE Index Print * Camera price does not include processing
The I/O connector is a PCB card edge with 10 wires. Kind of looks like the cassette port on a C64.
Assuming he's stupid enough to not be aware of the fact that RFID's are EVERYWHERE now, what are the odds that he can either disable, or better yet, make copies and distribute them EVERYWHERE, totally making the system worthless?
Obviously you'll need tags as you would stick out like a sore thumb w/o any. You won't "make copies" of your own tags, you'll copy other peoples tags. That should be quite easy as everyone you walk by will eagerly transmit you their info. In the future I think there will be 'RFID' theft and police will profile you based on your tags.
DvdRip is a GUI front end for transcode to allow recompressing DVD's into mpeg4 OR into VCD's/SVCD's. DvdRip is written in Perl and directly supports clustering.
Greg Bear won a Nebula for Darwin's Radio in 2001, the book was published in 1999. In this book there is a retrovirus that they are trying to figure out, and they use the Internet as a large scale method of publishing information on it.
They [SBC] also have plotted to kill Ashcroft's dad
Ashcroft's dad already has to live with the fact that his son wants to be the anti-christ. I'm sure that this will be just like installing DSL for SBC however; after a year and about 10 hitmen, Ashcroft's dad will be proclaiming "Just shoot me and get it over with".
This is not biodiesel. Biodiesel will run in any diesel engine w/o modifications. Most of the diesel sold in Europe is or contains biodiesel. Biodiesel is made by taking oil (such as used veggie oil) and mixing it with sodium methydroxide (Lye and Menthanol). The glycerine seperates out and what is left (minus more filtering, called "washing") is biodiesel.
This is often refered to as "SVO" - Straight Vegetable Oil. The Gresel system requires two tanks for starting and stopping on regular diesel. I've seen systems that do not require any diesel. They (simply) involve: 1. Replacing the injectors with ones that have a larger bore. 2. Changing the thermostat to one that stays on to a higher temperatature 3. Replacing the glow plugs with heavier duty ones 4. Installing an electric fuel line heater 5. Installing a heat exchanger
When the engine is cold the electric heater warms the fuel, allowing it to flow through the injectors properly. Once the engine heats up the thermostat shuts off which turns off the electric fuel line heater and the glow plugs. By then the heat exchanger uses the heat from the engine coolant to keep the fuel visocity low. I believe the main difference between this system and what gresel offers is the electric fuel line heater. Once you do the changeover you can still run off of diesel, but you're going to be dumping more fuel in the engine (larger injectors) so your horsepower will go up and your milage down.
am I the only one having issues getting to the other pages of the article? For some reason, no matter which page I click I never move off page 1. Tried 2 different browsers, page is b0rked.
When you click the next page link, remove the extra/, ie change the end of the url from//2 to/2 - it' s just a minor typo in their link.
The moral of the story is if you're going to donate money to an organisation that could possibly be considered a terrorist group (ie EFF, FSF) at anytime in the future, donate anonymously and don't inform the government by deducting it on your taxes.
Years ago I used a Wagner heat gun to unsolder unneeded 40 pin dips from circuit boards. I was already using the gun to remove the "protective" epoxy so it was convienient. I've also used a shrink wrap gun (much milder than the Wagner) to reflow solder on dimms that had cold solder joints.
The RIAA is very upset that CD's last so much longer than LPs. They've tried to block the resale of used CDs.
They've come up with a solution to this. They corrupt the error correction on a CD and claim they are doing it for copy protection. The end result (a few years from now) is people will learn that CD's (music frisbees) are not that reliable and they shouldn't buy a CD like disk from the used store because it probably won't play right.
My logic on CD like music frisbees is that they will promote higher quality trading of music. If joe sixpack can't rip an album, then it will be done by some 133t kid smart enough to use LAME and not Xing. The newer P2P systems use hashes to identify content, so the fewer unique mp3's of any song floating around the easier it will be to locate a good copy. Yes, there is a huge difference in quality of encoders. A few years ago I ran some tests at lower bit rates and found Franhoffer (not as good as LAME now) to sound better at 32k than a different encoder (I forget which) at 64k. One of the main reasons I don't use P2P is the [lack of] quality of the mp3's.
Just think, at a 100:1 gear ratio, you'll experience the joys of rebuilding your engine every other weekend. If a typical Motorcycle (4 cycle) averages an average gear ratio of 1.5:1 and gets about 30K miles before it's rebuild time, that would factor out to about 450 miles before a rebuild. While a 2 stroke engine is almost as durable as a 4 stroke, the small size will decrease it's lifespan by a significent margin compared to a larger (ie 600cc) 4 stroke... I doubt you would get much more than 300 miles out of one of these little engines.

You mean like:

Got it.

"It'd be cool to see some patches come from Redmond", but that's probably wishful thinking.
I'm sure MS will release patches to make sure XP works "really good" with Linux.
