I can't say that I know when these items first hit it big, but they are definately a part of modern life and they were certainly innovative at the time.
I was curious about the "Elektron Oxygen Generator" and found a brief description here:
1. The Russian Elektron generator will make oxygen by splitting water into hydrogen and oxygen (electrolysis). 2. Solid fuel oxygen generators or oxygen candles will be burned to make additional oxygen, if required. 3. The space shuttle or Progress supply ships will bring nitrogen from Earth, and store it in external tanks on the station. 4. In later phases of construction, external tanks will supply oxygen; these tanks can be refilled by the space shuttle. In the final stage, an additional electrolysis oxygen generator will be added to the station. 5. The pressure control assembly (a system of pumps and valves) will mix the nitrogen and oxygen in the right percentages, monitor the atmospheric pressure and depressurize the station when necessary to prevent overpressure or to extinguish a fire during an emergency.
Evolution calendaring works well, and I believe the print options are acceptable too. I haven't had the best of luck with the DAV interface to an ics calendar file, but the support is present.
I don't like X, and will kill you if you ever suggest X again.
Is this different? What happens after you suggest X again? What if I don't kill you?
What's the crime in exageration or ellipsis?
Perhaps, I did kill you... metaphorically, from my list of people respected for their view on X.. Perhaps this is all an example of acceptable free speech, but when I replace 'you' with 'the president', should I expect the SS to knock at (down?) my door?
What kind of crap is this? The man is a little busy at the moment, please forgive him if he slips up a ballgame score. He's got enough numbers to keep straight, what with the past 4 years of economic, employment, and military figures.
With gestures enabled you would get a little neck workout when you want to reload a page in Opera/FireFox..
Can this really be good? I would think all those micromovements wouldn't be good for your brain (constant rattling) or your neck. Not to mention you'ld look inflicted by the black shakes.
Potatoes stop bleeding too. I thought I originally read this on Slashdot, but Google is not being helpful. Actually, it's like dried potatoe flakes or powder. But the story is the same, it near instantly stops bleeding.
Maybe those extrasolar bodies were just electronic blur from the over powering. Is this possible? Does HST focus in on some spectographically known object as a periodic test?
My assumption is that monkeys brought up in human homes as pets would have attempted the same thing. My guess is whatever got one of the monkeys walking got them all walking, they didn't just play monkey see, monkey do.
Our very talented art staff has already started on the next game. Kenneth (Scott, id Software artist) is leading the team, working on some proof-of-concept stuff.
I followed the link to step up to v5 of windows update on my girlfriends system.
A few minutes ago the system informed me about a new update. It's installing "Windows XP Service Pack 2" as I type. This is the earliest August release Microsoft has ever had.
What do these power systems do differently in the event of a price rise? Do they dim the power to the building lighting? Do they cut non-essential systems (extra lights?) Is there anything else you can mess with other than lighting?
How do they pull energy from other resources? That reminds me of Star Trek, "reroute power from the main deflector!"
What would a household or neighborhood version do?
My Panasonic DVC-50 imports live or recording streams at the same real time rate regardless of previewing size. I can watch it at fullscreen at the same time if i like.
If you are asking about applying effects on top of the imported DV in real-time you may need to pipe you dvgrab input to a few other things first.
Actually, Kino has a live preview of effects at a reduced frame rate. Depending on your horsepower this may work.
I think Mencoder may actually be ready for doing this sort of thing. Check into it.
A local resident was found starved to death in his home on Sesame Street yesterday. A note was found with the body which read,
"C is for cookie. That's good enough for me."

What about SCO/Caldera distributing Linux

SCOoby Snacks

· Score: 1
I heard this point brough up long ago, but haven't heard anything about it since.
As Caldera, and still as SCO (a few months ago atleast), ftp.sco.com distributes Linux with ANY code that they may be complaining about under the GPL license. Why isn't this a show-stopper for their campaign?

When I finally used my car (after a 3 day weekend of playing Midnight Club 2, 24/7) I realised how slugish my Jetta's performance was.
Still, the 65mph speed limit seemed extremely restrictive.
Being stopped at a red light, meant that I was about to get a green signal and the foot HAD to hit the floor.
Those were dangerous times.

I knew it was only a matter of time before we gave Lucas a reason to produce 'Star Wars: Re-Re-Released, now in HD!'
And yet the prospect of another extended LoTR release doesn't bother me. Not one bit.

I misread the subject as "Using Computers To Weed Out Fake Farts". It could be a useful technology.

I, for one, welcome our new Titan overlords.
PPPL's display wall is 15 feet across, with 9 1024x768 projectors. More pictures and info are available in Mike Age's PPPL Display Wall presentation.
I doubt this, as reasonable as it sounds.

Quake 4, anyone?
Although I have had it crash twice on level 1 when I moved the right block to the left. Simple solution, don't do that right away.
My bad, dogs... In the status window it reads "Installing Windows XP Service Pack 2, (Release Candidate 2)..."
That's what I get for saying something nice about MS...

Liferea has a clean gnome2 interface and supports atom.. I like it.
I also use Forumzilla from Thunderbird. Opera supports rss directly in its mail client.
All this talk of "shipping" makes me wonder why FedEx/UPS aren't taking stake in the space race.
"Just sign here, and here. Have a good day." Vrrrooooomm
I don't get it..
