oh I don't know about that Cadillac had thermal imagining on cars for what a decade or so, or maybe some wii handles would work. $50 Million Laser vs. $2K thermal tracker, somebody will figure it out.
Artillery have been hip-shooting for decades, i was doing it since before GPS so with GPS it's got to be almost as accurate as set, surveyed shoots. As soon as you shoot you scoot because you just automatically assume somebody is going to drop a big steel present on your former position and it'll be there in about a minute.
yup the 81MM mortar is a smoothebore but it's round has fins at the base that are canted so the projo spins in flight. 81's are slow too, after you drop one down the tube you can look up and see the round about 100m down range and watch it going until after it's a little past it's max ordinate and it disappears. Howitzers have a rifled barrel so the round spins. All artillery rounds that I know of have a fuse that doesn't arm until the round has spun so many times, this prevents most barrel bursts. Shooting one 81 doesn't impress me, shooting 3 fired in a ripple that's getting interesting; shoot down 3 fired at the same time I'm impressed, but remember real world is going to be somebody see all the loud IR energy pointing at the laser source and they are likely to answer with 3 81mm;s in flight, backed up by three salvos of 3 60mm mortars all taking the high trajectory while 6 more 155mm howitzer rounds are coming in low and fast.
Actually I really resented the whole pathetic affair, I look at it as the president is paid 24/7 and therefore he or she should conduct him or herself in a respectable and honorable manner 24/7. I find that he had a sexual affair disturbing, but that he had it with an Intern as President is only a notch above pedophilia in my book.
Not too many of us would live to tell if we tried that argument with our wives and got caught.
cableISP care more about the direction of the traffic that the amount of the traffic, p2p kills them because their last-mile is biased to HTTP style traffic with little upstream and heavy downstream traffic.
Impersonation laws were not written and were not intended to cover subtle technical distinctions.
You mean a subtle technical distinction like when a lawyer and president stated he didn't have sex with Monica Lewinski because fellatio isn't sex? Subtle technical distinctions are the stock and trade of both the legal and the regulatory trades and both tend to attract narcissistic assholes.
The sandvine devices are far enough upstream that I don't think they see your modems MAC, in fact i'd be surprised if they can even associate an IP address with a given user. This is reinforced by the fact that after doing some BT traffic and my connection starts sucking wind, just rebooting the modem and getting a new IP address and things run like normal again, appologies to the poor smuck that got my old IP address and my old sucky connection.
I'll see that blazing speed if I download the linux ISOs via an HTTP link, or from an FTP site.
No you will not, those files are to big to get much out of the "powerboost", my last system update was on a comcast connection and today the KDE update came in in the neighborhood of 375 Kbs, but the files under 2MB flew in around 1.5Gbs. What cable ISPs hate is uploads, it kills their systems, they are happy when you download a 1000 times more than you upload.
You cannot buy a baseball bat and then legally go beat your neighbor with it.
The legality of what your intending to do with the bat is irrelevant to the legality of it's purchase, they are completely separate issues. One could just as easily argue that the baseball bat manufacturer's refusal to sell to someone intending to perform illegal activities with the bat is obstructing justice by preventing criminal activities for the police to arrest criminals for!
So the way to get Comcast to preform customer service is to make your complaints public, but talking to them directly is a YMMV proposition. This seems almost narcissistic.
Maybe if you don't have to write them down they are to weak. The real issue isn't how secure the password is but how well the password is secured. Obviously a sticky note on the monitor is not enough, as well as a biometric that locks you out for 2 weeks because you cut your finger is too much, somewhere between the two extremes will be the appropriate sweet-spot for any given situation. What most people are confused about is thinking a weaker password being kept in the mind vault is more secure than a stronger password kept in a physical vault; the reality is the mind vault is subject to vulnerabilities than a physical container isn't.
Matte painters worked in 8K resolution, and the artists painted texture maps in either 8K or 16K resolution, depending on the view. âoeThat was a bottleneck,â Franklin says. âoePhotoshop doesnâ(TM)t handle images above 4K very efficiently and itâ(TM)s a closed tool, so we couldnâ(TM)t get in there and add stuff to it. Working with Photoshop was possible, but slow. It took three or four times longer than usual to paint the textures.â
I doubt the GIMP would have been able to do it either, but I wonder if in the future, it might get used for a project similar to this because it is open source and can be modified for special use like this.
the only open source app I know of that handles it is cinepaint, it actually handles 32 bit floating color channels as well as 16 and 8 bit.
well there is the blooper reels and of course when DVD sales go flat, they'll release a "directors cut" with deleted scenes and alternate endings and the "how we made" reels. 6 hrs actually sound a bit constrained.
an open source image editor Cinepaint is in the middle of a rewrite to convert from GTK to FLTL, Fast Light Toolkit to free up some memory and CPU cycles by using a more spartan interface. The pro's want they work to be pretty, not their software.
a lonesome K is kilopixels of horizontal resolution, so in 16:9 format a 16K image would be 16K wide by 9K high. The pixels are probably 32 bit floating point or 16 bit interger per color, Red, Green, Blue, and Alpha
Mifune Go (the name of Speed Racer in the original Japanese) is a Marcabian,(an extra-terrestrial race that Scientologists believe existed and engaged in high-speed excessively dangerous auto racing) Mach Go! Go! Go!(Go is 5 in Japanese, Go is the character's name, and of course go is go in English)

phenolic resins are pretty heat resistant or maybe something that breaks down endothermicly when irradiated with IR.

That was a while ago, not much GIMP code left in it anymore, they are even replacing GTK with FLTK right now.

How about 'barely legal'?
more like patently illegal but they figure they could dazzle a jury with enough bullshit to get a "reasonable doubt"

Comcast wouldn't monitor /., they know sucking up to us for a little PR is hopeless on this forum.

what morons, everybody know the only secure place for your password sticky note is the underside of your keyboard

these guy don't use jpeg in the pipeline, they use something like DPX, OpenEXR and 16-bit TIFF
what no Alpha channel?

Anybody that has used KDE for a while isn't likely to switch. Going from KDE to Gnome feels almost a foreign as going from KDE to Windows.
