The only difference between "crackpot" and "visionary" is the degree of of appeal the crack/vision holds for you.
I am with ya, a few years ago I stated that people would at some point, start living under the water due to cosmic rays and solar radiation concerns. People thought I was a crack pot for suggesting it, I still stand by my statements and think it is a valid line of research.
Crack pot or no, think of the view from your porch.
The consumer and the market will control the price. They are fee to ask whatever they want, let them see what the market will bare or they price themselves out of the market.
That CO2 is a greenhouse gas, and its increased concentration does lead to overall increase in average temperature.
There is no such thing as a greenhouse gas! There are gases that cause a greenhouse effect! CO2 is not even the worst, water vapor is!
Until you get that right, I have no time for you. The normal state of the Universe is Freaking COLD, I for one would rather be warm. There are more reports out that say LIFE will improve with a little warming. So I for one say bring it on, Let the third world have some cheap energy by burning coal and oil. Would you have them suffer with no standard of living increase by charging them for "Green Tech" they can not afford and we should not have to pay for? We can save more people by giving them POWER and WATER then by NOT. NOW who is the HATER?? you freaking AGW nutcases that is who.
Lastly, even if it is TRUE, there is NOTHING you or the INDEED the WHOLE of the EARTH can do about it. DO you get THAT, NOTHING!
Should you now be subject to have your possessions searched while the claim you're a drug-dealing prostitute for a half hour because you obviously weren't supposed to be on THAT public street?
I have a question for you.....
Does the "drug-dealing prostitute" need to be subjected to that type of treatment any more or less then you do?
The very existence of netbooks and nettops are an admission by the entire industry that the majority of tasks performed by computers these days are served well enough by a "Pentium III", perhaps with the addition of a better GPU than existed back then..
I agree 100% the problem is Code Bloat and no optimization.
It's a dangerous business stepping out your door........ I too will guarantee that for everyone living and reading this right now, death is a 100% certainty. Get over it, no pain no gain.
We use to always compare TCP/IP packets to pidgeons.... The joke was send more pidgeons and stop routing them over the pond where the duck hunters are.
Brings to mind the old expression, never underestimate the bandwidth of a truck load of DLT tapes going 55mph. Or the recover plan of "TOPS"..... Tapes on Planes
Wow what a shocker... People who meditate do so to focus on ONE point and keep that focus for as long as possible. Everyone knows that a core problem with people is a lack of focus.... OH Look a Quarter!!! Anyway, where was I? Oh yes, the lack of attention and focus, And just how much did this study cost us?
The problem is that there are many laws that shield people from being held responisible for their actions. Qualified immunity, sovereign immunity and other types of immunity, these types of protections giving to a select group of people should be stricked as a violation of the equal protection clause of the 14th Admendment.
Until all of the selective protection laws are struck down, your rights will be trampled. The people transgressing know they are protected and can and do get away with it.
We all know this kind of thing is wrong and there should be no law protecting ANYONE who did or think of doing such a thing, How can someone violate Federal Rights and be shielded in any manor?
I thought we were crazy about protecting kids in this country, and about child porn. Are we saying they are no such people working as school officals?
If a school administrator strip searched my Daughter or checked her painties, he had better be taken into police custody for his own protection.
It's about removing assumptions from our models and getting down to actual facts.
BIZZZZZIT.... wrong.......
Our standard model is just in and of itself an assumption...... We really know very little and assume a great deal about everything. Anyone who tells you otherwise knows even less.

The Volt is more akin to a diesel electric locomotive. It costs more but in the long run I think it's the way to go. Time will tell.

What about medicaid and medicare just who is paying for that?
Social hacks work on anyone with any OS. Patch yourself, what you are talking about is due diligence.
Do as the Romans did. They Knew that War should pay for itself. After you win you TAX the shit out of the loser. This is also a great deterrent.
We have gotten far to soft.
Allowing anyone to obtain money only as long as a problem exists is the surest way to assure it will always exist.
Ahh.... I see you have a good understanding of IT consulting.
Big Pharma wants you to live.
Live yes, Cure NO. They want to keep you as a consumer.

Am I missing something here?
I call bullshit!

A very wise Network Admin once told me.
Wisdom comes from experience. Experience comes from mistakes.
So, you see most of us wise administrators got our experience somewhere else, if you know what I mean.
wink wink, nudge, nudge.

We all know it's nice to share, or that is the way I was raised, but the last time I checked that kind of activity could land your ass in JAIL.
Kinda of a mix message, No?
War is foolish.
That depends on how War is conducted.
That is all propaganda....
The "terrorists" watch and think, heck... They live in as big a shithole as us. We should stop hating them and feel sorry.

Can't think of one? Yea Me either.

If it is not broken, don't fix it.
If it is broken, and can not be fixed, provide a workaround.
If after the workaround it is still broken, shim it.
The shim is therefore the workaround for the workaround.
Now then, if we Vertulize the Shim, and put it in the forest where no one can hear it crash, does the problem realy exist?
Sounds like a great way to get to five 9's to me.

[quote]device that can manipulate and interact with its environment[/quote]
I will stick with the katana .. it manupulates and interacts with the phyical enviroment very well.
Does a good job on people with pesky magic wands too!
No sensors or gizmos needed, and only effects what you point it.

On the bright side, due to the colossal stupidity of the public, pork prices are droping.
In down times it is good to have some cheap meat products at the store.
Pork, its what's for dinner. :)
