It gets really messy once you get past the network problems. How do start with a useful quality of service? You will need x phones distributed over a given area? How do you deal with Christmas day and or Mothers day when every body is calling? This would really be the pits in sparsely populated areas because you could never be sure that the mesh has enough nodes to be functional. In heavily populated areas it is probably cheaper to put in small towers and use the microwave links and or fiber that is already there.
I agree. I wish that Slashdot wouldn't allow animated banner ads. I have tried unblocking the ads on slashdot because I do want them to make money. I can take it for about 20 minutes and then back on goes the blocker. It is hard to read text when there is an animation on the same page. The same is the ads on slashdot are probably for stuff I am interested in. They just present it in a way that is too annoying for me to tolerate.
How useless of a comment. The answer is in some cases yes. I think you will see BSD used in more Embedded systems now. After RMS went after Tivo other manufactures will be less willing to risk the wraith of RMS. I really hate how GPL forces only some equipment manufactures to allow the end user replacement of software. It should be all or nothing.
Both can exist but I find zero value in groups of that nature. If you wish to criticize some aspect of Islam do so. But there is great value in civil dialog and little to none in this kind of hyperbole, it isn't subtle, clever, or insightful. It will do nothing positive at all.
Well at least as far of the raising of children goes I think you are overly pessimistic. The failures tend to get all the publicity. I teach a sunday school class with my wife and most of the kids are really great people in the making.
There are some problems with that idea. That would work only in the summer. That would be handy only if you needed that aircraft over the polar region during the summer months. Then you have the really big problem... The solar panels are mounted on the wings... The sun at the poles never climbs very high in the sky so the panels would have to be mounted on the sides of the aircraft. That would limit your collecting area a lot and or produce a lot of drag.
So the idea while interesting at first glance really is far from practical.
You left out that a lot of the area near the equator is rain-forest. If it is done correctly then it could be a help. If done poorly it will be a problem. Just like everything else in life from nuclear power to raising children:)
Interesting. The thing here is these groups don't own Facebook. So doesn't Facebook have the right to criticize and or protest this hate speech be removing it? I mean the people in that group could always put up their own site? Think about things like newspapers. Just because you write a letter to the editor they don't have to print it. Just because you want to put an ad in they don't have to take it, even if you are a reporter the editor has the right to not publish what you write.
It is a shame. They are off to the right of the page and have the heading of sponsored links over them... This is right up with the cups at Atlanta Bread that have the waring, "Hot drinks served hot".
We have some issues with our IP phones and headsets. We traced it to the fact that our network isn't grounded. It seems that a lot of Ethernet Networks that don't use POE are also not properly grounded.
I have to admit that I find the AT&T GSM phones to be the scariest when it comes to interference. In our office full of computers you can tell when someones GSM phone is going to ring. They actually interfere with the speakers on the PCs!. CDMA phones don't seem to have that problem. I wonder if it has more to do with the frequencies or the communications method?
Thanks I don't get to Utah often since I am actually from South Florida. I went to Moab to go biking and that road between Moab and Provo was one of the longest and emptiest roads I have ever seen:)
The trick with crocks is you got to get real close to hear them. I suggest you find one. A big one since they are older and wiser than the average and get real close and listen for a while. Then report back.
Yep. Thanks for point that out. Pure water is VERY HARD to make radioactive. You would need to bombard it with enough neutrons to breed a large amount of tritium. If you did that you sure wouldn't want to get ride of that water since it would be worth a lot of money.
Water can become contaminated with readioive material. There are lots of ways to filter out the contamination but they tend to be expensive because it isn;t just a few gallons of water water you have to deal with but a lake, aquifer, or river.
Crocs and alligators are not the same. Second exactly where is there NO radiation. If you know of such a place I sure don't want to be there since it would be mighty cold and dark.
"Aernt there are plenty of normal places around the word (i.e. not uranium mines/dumps) where the levels are naturally higher?" Background is an average. So the answer is yes. Including many basements, cities located high in the moutians, airliners... You don't even need to be near a uranium mine or dump to get twice background.
I am a Firefox user. Opera tends to be faster then Firefox. Opera passed the Acid2 Test for rendering. Opera has better zooming support. Opera runs on Linux and Windows. I don't know about the mac.
Firefox is better at rendering "broken" websites. You know those that are only tested in IE 5. Firefox extensions are a nice feature. You can customize Firefox to be your browser. Firefox is open source.
I really do like Opera but the I am just so used to using Firefox that the habit is hard to break. The sad thing is that is the same reasoning that many people use for using IE.
IF the drivers are any good then I think it will have a much bigger effect than you might imagine. I always bought nVidia based video cards and nVidia based motherboards because I like AMD cpus and I wanted to run Linux as well as Windows. Now I can go with AMD/ATI for motherboad, graphics, and CPU. Not only that but I will have a selection of graphics solutions from low cost on board up to the high end.
The big key is that now the PC makers that want to sell Linux system will have totaly open solution from top to bottom from AMD.
The disto makers can offer drivers.
Now will AMD also open up all the motherboard drivers so we can have the same raid support as Windows?
Slashdot Mirror
No, not a chance, not way? What different parts of the laptop that might not be used by another program? I mean really...
"avoiding host-country snooping on various activities,"
Why not a VPN using SSH back to the home country and then out from there?

I was thinking the exact same thing. I keep backups of my data. I actually mirror the website on a server at my office for development.

If you are just doing text have you tried using RTF?

I didn't know that the other groups exist. My guess is that to be fair they too should have been removed as well.

I always wanted to take a telescope to the road between Moab and Provo I figured that would be pretty dang dark.

So less that 2 MPG???
Doesn't sound that great even with a crew of 10 a 747 gets better milage per seat.
