I bought a new AMD 2000+ XP cpu and a TT Volcano 7+ to cool it. It's really loud. Now my computer room sounds like the server farm at work. I'm currently also looking at watercooling to meet my need for silence and am glad that places like fry's are starting to stock kits. Hopefully as these become more popular they'll also become cheaper.
I mean people pay 500 dollars for these things plus a subscription fee and they still have the nerve to upload spyware into your system and "Claim" it's inactive until you say to use it.
I'd probably take mine back or demand that part be removed.
It's been suggested before (In elementary school books) I think. That launching tons of coal at the planet that would burn up upon impact to increase the levels of CO2 in the atmosphere would help raise the tempature on the planet.
Once we can raise the tempature enough to melt the ice we sit back and wait to see where the land stays.
Now you know where land is and you have a Co2 abundance plant life could then thrive if you put it somewhere it's raining of course.
Another issue though is the radiation. It's widely believed that mars core is solid. We would have to figure a way to heat that core back up so plate tetonics could take back over and hopefully the planet would generate a new magnetic field which then would begin to block radation while the reformed atmosphere starts to do it's job.
One thing comes to mind are mining robots taking down nuclear bombs to explode in the core (next to impossible and possibly dangerous)
I just wish scientists could figure out a way to fix venus's apmosphere. Plate tetonics still exist there (IIRC a magnetic field too) hopefully someday we can send small robots (nanites that could fly and chemically convert the chemical makup of the atmosphere)
There was an show the other day that showed some clear plastic displays about as thin as 4mm or less that had very nice and crip backlit displays. They were made from solar cell material that some scientist discovered would glow if you reversed the flow of electricity to the photoelectric material.
Not only would these displays be super light but relative inexpensive to make compared to plasma displays and such.
Yesterday I learn that they're using camera's to identify wanted people in tampa florida. What happens when they identify a killer. Oh wait it was a mistake but they go after the innocent person with guns drawn that person runs away and is shot in the back and killed by the police. Big Brother kills again.
Chips in your money. Heh now they can know exactly how much money is on you at any time. Sophisticated crooks could use this to detect how much money is in a store or on a person. The government could use satellites to track certain bills anywhere they go. IE Stolen money. Dont let them start! It's like high gas prices, once you get used to it you dont B*tch so much. But it keeps going up more. They'll take a little of your freedom. You B*tch some but learn to live without it. Then they take more!
Man how do they know someone is trading movies or just some porn? Are they sniffing the networks? Sounds like privacy invasion to me. Remember you cant wiretap a phone line without a court order. I wonder if a point to point data transmission would fall under the same catorgory?
Actually microsoft funded it I believe. Another company is in charge of making it. Although microsoft had a major hand in the multiplayer aspects of the game.
It's amazing how we pay these fees to mastercard and they go waste their hard earned cash to pay some junior lawyers to go surf the net on search and destroy missions. But hey I need a job like that. I'll work for half price too just give me a dedicated DS3.
I'm glad I stuck with Discover.
If they have to charge you for someone to come in to fix a security hole it sounds like a bunch of amatuers trying to run a ISP. I'd call the BBB and file a complaint about it.
Well I dont know about dos interoperability but I hear the Bill Clinton wanted to contact them to see if he could clone monica lewenski from his cigar.
Actually it works pretty good. I mean you jump in the tunnel of HTTP and down you go. And you get switched by ftp to the atm to the rfc to the isd to the isp to the ipx to the spx to the oh my I've gone cross-eyed again.
You get a all expense paid trip to the land of NO INTERNET SERVICE. And as a bonus you get to dust off your analog modem and reinstall it and download a copy of doom at 300baud. And lastly for our runner up contestant you get a voucher to get ripped off by your local pawn shop where you will be at to sell your dsl equipment.

[01:55] Estimated Price: Not Released

[01:55] "Plan on having a second child"
[01:55] "You'll need to sell the first"
They only cheered so MS would feel comfortable about releasing it and they could get their hands on it and promptly install Linux on it.

Sounds like a bunch of 10 year olds threw this thing together. "You cant be in my club if you are part of his club"
I'm curious how the lawyer they hired to write the EULA kept from laughing.

It's time to take care of our own. Helping other countries is noble but ignoring your own country is a greater crime.

And laid their only backup NOC off. Now all their operations are handled in New Jersey.
As a former employee I cant even get out of my verizon wireless phone until november and where I moved I have no service but analog.

Paypal keeps operating budgets and consumer's money seperate and will never use the consumer's money to finance operations.
Says so in their FAQ's
Anyone want a RTFFAQ Shirt?
Finally we can prove cops work at donut shops!
*dies*
I'm sorry 5 was a understatement for this being funny.
Best laugh I've had all day. Back to crying about being laid off by Verizon (backstab) Wireless.
Need an network engineer?
Can I say nude here?
lol owell
They say it does not prevent a neccessary task.
Well supporting yourself financially is a neccessary task. How do you brush your teeth if you cant afford a toothbrush!
Finincial disablity is just as severe as a physical disability.

They probally will release it in peices and leave it to the world to reassmble it. Look at what they did with that spy plane.

Trojan could make a fortune off that stuff!
