and this is another outwardly visible sign of that. I'm not sure you can draw a connection between us not going back to the moon in 30 plus years and saying thats a sign of our slipping in the technology race. Since the space race Russia and the US have kept people in orbit for months and in one case 748 days. The US has sent some pretty advanced probes to MARS and beyond. Saturn Comets the Sun, some great telescopes the list goes on. We are doing some advanced stuff To tweek the quote by JFK: We chose to go to the moon now we are doing those other things becuase they are hard.
And personal backups of your own media so that you don't have to buy a new copy when your friend/pet/child/"significant other" scratches it.
Yeah that or... you could learn to start taking care of your stuff in the first place. I lost a few CD's to scratches when I was a kid. My parents never said, well you should have made a back up copy, they were more apt to say "GD it! When are you going to learn to take care of the stuff we buy you", so fast forward a decade later and how many DVD's or games have a lost to scratches. None.
Come one people take responsibility for your stuff. If your friend scratches them your friend owes you a new disk, if your child scratches them, well if that's the worst your child does to your stuff you got off easy, if your significant other scratches them, you have to take the good with the bad. If your pet scratches them... Wait what?!? Thats just stupid. I can't see any good reason why your pet should come near your media... Media has cases and those cases should be stored some where that Rover can't get to.
They mentioned that in the article. Mister Scientist thinks their are different mechacisms at work that produce the super massive black holes at the centre of galaxies. I was wondering though, is it possible that a black hole of this mass could me produces in a trinary solar system where two black holes merge, in this case leaving you with a 16 solar masses and orbiting the remain star?
You could look at this a few different ways. First you could say that this is partially active and not totally reactive. Laptops were lost or stolen with large quantities of data, it's not sure if that data was used for nefarious purposes right at least it hasn't been disclosed publicly. So you could say that this is a semi active response. Some one said we got darn lucky lets remove this vector.
Also think about all the ways some one can get to your data. You have to step up your protection to all of these threats all the bad people have to do is find the weakest link. Now I'll be the first to say that a good DAR policy should have been an obvious precaution but thats neither here nor there. At least they are taking steps make this not the weakest link.
what you said got me thinking. Some people will say it needs it's own article becuase it was something that happened. At some point recording everything that happens requires a system as large as the system being recorded. So by that token you could say you don't need to record everything about everything. Now it's a matter of deciding what is important and what is not... Good luck getting anyone to agree with that.
I think they said on their web page it had some sort of control surfaces(es) or something and that according to it's computer models it would fly. That was the my whole issue with it. Them saying a flying model of an X-wing and when you read a little deeper it "flew" in computer simulations. Modeling and simulation is my profession, and I'll be the first to say just because it does well in simulation might not mean anything esp if you models and simulations are messed up.
what happened to the idea that express parcel companies would be major forces behind private space exploration? Other than the obvious reason that the book in question is a work of fiction?
I'd imagine parcel companies either don't even see it as profitable yet and haven't done any feasibility studies or they have done feasibility studies and it's not worth it yet. FedEx doesn't have to design a plane it just buys one from Boeing or who ever. Maybe it will change when Lockheed make a working commercial space place.
It's more like taking Windows and hacking it to take an invalid key That's not even close a close comparison. In one case the iPhone you bought it legally, in the case of hacking windows to take an invalid key you're making software work that you didn't purchase a valid key for. Apples and Oranges.
You forgot muting the station. If my dad was watching the TV with us as soon as the commercials came on the volume went off. Also I have a Tivo now and I can't say I always fast forward past commercials. Sometimes I just let them play.
Should not reply to self but oh well. I might come off to harsh, they did mention the bison but not to the level you did. Interesting to know. This article also had a few spelling errors that even I noticed which is saying a lot.
Actually that was on page 4 Bisons 6800 acres of land provide lots of opportunity to preserve vegetation and wildlife. Arriving at Fermilab through its signature gate in fact feels much more like arriving at a park rather than a high-energy research site. Vegetation is brought back to its original prairie state; wildlife includes 277 bird species, 54 species of butterflies, about 18,000 Canada geese during migration cycles, more than 350 deers - and 45 bisons.
Thanks for the explanation. I actually took macro in college and I realized I didn't like economics at all. My above post proves how much I didn't learn.
and we can't afford to buy what they sell? What do you mean with that, I thought the only way to have a trade deficit was to buy more from abroad than locally. So if we have a trade deficit it doesn't seem like we are having a problem affording stuff.
It's a nice thought but I think that argument would only work for a small subset of crimes, what about assaults, batteries, crimes of passion, rapes etc? For that mater what about Juvenile offends, they can live in a very nice house and want for nothing and will still commit crimes. Could be something stupid like graffiti or vandalism but as someone said above if the opportunity is not there then their is a good chance the crime won't happen.
OT I know Being that Hindus have many Gods is their one people could pray to for computer help? I was just talking about this need with a coworker this morning when I was having problems.

By Christian do you mean protestant or baptist? Because I learned all my favorite words from my mother, she's Catholic.
The proper way not to be a grammar Nazi. Thank you for the pointer. I will make note of it.

Of course according to the article this said a 12 member jury. So WTF do I know.
Just an FYI. I believe Civil trials have 6 member juries in most cases. If I think with the exception of cases involving curtilage and eminent domain.
That quote makes me chuckle every time.
Did any one else have a ZOMG Ponies flashback for a second?

But the fibre could be severed and the two atoms would remain entangled, even if one were 'carefully taken to Jupiter'."
Probably not.

Bisons

Actually the article said it was devoid of "dark matter", they freely admit they have no idea what this void is.
Thanks for the explanation. I actually took macro in college and I realized I didn't like economics at all. My above post proves how much I didn't learn.
