They don't do no night launches any more. It's a safety concern, they want to film the shuttle so they can see everything that falls off. (something to do with a shuttle exploding a few years ago).
mplayer can capture for a pre-determined period of time. Once you have that, it's only a matter of using 'at' or something like sleep 20m; mplayer some-options (RTFM).
The time where I bought a 16MB dimm for 400 Euro's and two weeks later they were selling at 50 Euro's in the same store? But that was so long ago that the Euro didn't even exist yet.
I already consider the moon-earth as a bi-planetary system. What's the big deal with these definitions, anyway? No matter where you draw the line, there will always be cases where there will be discussion. Like the criterium that the object has to be "nealy spherical" because of it's own gravity. Lots of planetoids are somewhere on this vague border.
Comets, asteroids, planets, stars, they all have grey areas between them.
I knew I had to patent my invention! It's a cellphone and microwave in one. Actually, the prototype consists of a cellphone, a microwave, and duct tape. Too late now..
If you want to repeat the experiment with the hydrochloric acid: don't get near to the bottle, even if it doesn't seem to work. The aluminum and the acid produce an exothermic reaction that goes faster and faster as it heats up. So at first nothing much seems to happen, but once the acid gets warm, the reaction goes a lot faster, adding much more heat, making the reaction go faster etc.... You don't want a bottle with steaming hot hydrochloric acid exploding in your face!!!
Also, the gas after the explosion does open up your sinusses, but I don't think it's healthy:-).
Ok, the experiment is a nice one to add to the list, but it's hardly "the coolest experiment ever".. I fondly remember two tricks when I was at college:
1: put some hydrocloric acid in an empty (plasic!!) soda bottle, add some aluminum foil, close bottle, throw away. The bottle will start to expand and blow up making a very loud bang.
2: stack a tealight on top of two other tea lights, making a small pyramid. Light them and wait until the top tea light starts to fume and then the entire surface will burst to flames. Then, carefully throw a small amount of water in the top candle. You'll get a huge ball of fire 2 meters high. Nice way to make clear why you should never throw water in burning deep fryer.
Warning: these experiments are quite dangerous, so be careful, don't put your head above the tea candles, make sure you're at least 10 meters distant from the bottle, never use a glass bottle, think it through before you begin. Use common sense.
When I read the article in my newspaper, my first thought wasn't that they wanted to censor google, it was that they wanted to use a lawsuit to promote their product. It seems to have worked; we now all know about serverscheck. That small company now has global coverage. Another job well done, it seems.
I learned vim in 3 days, but I was learning like 8 hours a day. It's an investment that has paid off I may say. there are commands like gf that can save a lot of time (e.g. in a script position the cursor on the name of another script/config file and type gf, you immediately *G*o to that *F*ile. Use CTRL-o to go back).
Start with vimtutor, then start RTFM. (Telling someone to RTFM sounds like an insult, I know, but that's where many power users got their power, including myself).
Erm, yes they can. It's called product placement. If you see a person drinking Pepsi in a movie, do you think that's a coincidence? No, it's someone only job to contact companies and ask for money. Favorite targets are cars, beverages, guns (USA), fast food restaurants,....
Anyway, mythbusters has gone infomercial it seems.. Not that it was such a great show, they repeat the same thing over and over again (next we're going to do this.... now we're going to do this.... we're really going to do this.... we're doing this.... we've finished doing this.... we have done this....). Like if we're idiots with the memory span of a goldfish.
It's been a while since a film warranted spending the money to watch it in a room full of strangers...
... who all forget to turn off their cellphones, or want to show off their new supercool laser pointer. I swear, if I ever find an asshole ruining the movie with his laser, I'll tear his head off and shit in his neck!
Eagle might not have the most performant autorouter, but I don't consider it shitty. That's just superharsh. Maybe you're just used to some other big $$$ tool, and when Eagle doesn't act the way you're used to, you call it a bug? In any way, Eagle has never crashed on me, so it's not as buggy as some other (expensive) applications. So your claim is not entierly valid.
The jury is still out on that one. It can still have a temperature gradient and a semi-molten core. If not getting near the core would be a real jackpot. solid Iron, nickel, you name it.
b) Iraq is making so much debts that in a few years, the oil is practically owned by the US.
Basically, I don't really know. What I do know is that the US government has lost all it's credibility over the past few years, and I'm not prepared to believe the Bush monkeys ever had another motive than oil to start the war.

The good thing is you'll have to install Linux.

One of its biggest aims is to stop the spread of HIV.
Too bad he doesn't have a very good track record in stopping virusses...

Any more cool DIY experiments anyone?

You forgot about the "Lost packet fee". It replaces the breakage fee.
The real question is: who's shooting mortars? SCO is really getting low methinks...

I see two possibilities:
a) It isn't really going according to plan,
or
b) Iraq is making so much debts that in a few years, the oil is practically owned by the US.
Basically, I don't really know. What I do know is that the US government has lost all it's credibility over the past few years, and I'm not prepared to believe the Bush monkeys ever had another motive than oil to start the war.
