GPRS has a latency that's just high enough to prevent voice over IP. FIdo is no exception. This appears to be some sort of 802.11 concoction that operates on a higher frequency range much like fatport or the other wireless providers out there.
And a person with 5% or less would pass out from exhaustion after walking up a couple flights of stairs, since they'd run out of stored body fat to carry that mass up.
I still say that levys against cds imply that I am a theif, and if I continue to pay the levys against cdrs, that I should be able to selectively download all the music I want, since I've paid for it anyways.
the final episode of the next generation was cool.
It confirmed that every single star trek episode starts off at point a, goes to point b & c, and ends up back at point a again. The only difference between the first and last episodes was better graphics.
floppy drives/syquest drives were never really known for their reliability either (hence why the zip drive took off so fast, apart from its increased storage).
dvd recordable media suffers from the same limitations as cdr media, being that its a chemical substration process. this means that it breaks down over time, and even faster when exposed to light.
magnetic tape, depending on what you use, can last for a decade or more when stored properly.
plus the 4GB size limit makes it a rather expensive and risky proposition considering the rate of failure when burning them.

pike is also a really huge class library, like java.

Linux is trying to "do a Windows" and be all things to all men as quickly as possible.
This statement doesn't make sense. It implies that there is one group taking an operating kernel and trying to stretch it out everywhere?
LOTS of people are trying to take various distributions of systems running on linux and making it do everything.
drug companies spend more than 50% of their profits in advertising, not the development of new products.
(or they spend it in creative ways to take an existing patent, add a chemical so it process but produces the same thing, and enjoy another 20 years.
There are documents out there that describe how to write 'faster' math implementations using JNI and 'sqrt', et al.
In order to maintain compatbility with IEEE-math, they reimplemented the routines in java bytecode.
the LCII prolly has one of those 68LCxxx jobs where it wasn't even possible to add an FPU. :(
happened to me as a kid. big thing during the 80s. I haven't seen it lately, but I haven't been hanging around suburban malls lately either.

this technique isn't really something for them to worry about, since it requires a higher level of skill than simply copying the disc.
voyager had 'biomechanical processors' to aid in computation, ie little gelpacks that would act as co-processors to the main computer core.
not when the majority of your customers are college students or photoshop geeks.
because it cost too much to bundle functionality like that into something no one used.
Product activation isn't present in the corporate editions of microsoft software.

Oh well =)
.. the freebsd kernel is maintained using perforce, and then pushed to the cvs servers ...
you are not a lawyer.
Redistributing and claiming copyright are not the same.

no, I meant the original 22/44MB syquest cartriges.
I was prolly exagerating the failure rate, but it sounds like a good idea that I never did invest in sparq drive.
compared to syquest drives they were. this was before the click of death days.
"Oh look, the courier went down a hill too fast, this syquest cartridge is fucked."

got any 5 year old cdrs laying around? 10 year old?

cdr/dvdr uses a chemical substration process to have data written to it, and is nowhere near as stable as magnetic tape.
the paper log maker would definately be a worthy investment then.
I was a boy scout/avid pyro =)
Just burning paper by itself is somewhat stupid though, given the amount of ash that's produced.
paper would burn too fast.. and it doesn't burn hot enough. You'd have to have someone shovelling in paper pretty quickly..
plus its illegal to burn your garbage in most areas.
