Sure, if you *cap* the population at 150 during transit, and don't allow multiple pairings within the same generation of course you're going to kill the genetic diversity.
However, if instead of a generational ship we were talking about hibernation until arrival, 150 is enough to begin a genetically viable colony. How do you avoid the risk of inbreeding? Simple: no cap on the number of children, but no full siblings allowed. Encourage as many different genetic pairings as possible.

What is your solution on how to deal with the questions raised by Sedna and Xena? Ignore them, make them all planets, what?
HOLLY: They're from the NorWEB Federation. LISTER: What's that? HOLLY: NorthWestern Electricity Board. They want you, Dave. LISTER: Me? Why? What for? HOLLY: For your crimes against humanity. LISTER: You what?! HOLLY: Seems when you left Earth, three million years ago, you left two
half-eaten German sausages on a plate in your kitchen. LISTER: Did I? HOLLY: You know what happens to sausages left unattended for three
million years? LISTER: Yeah, they go mouldy. HOLLY: Your sausages, Dave, now cover seven-eighths of the Earth's
surface. Also, you left seventeen pounds, fifty pence in your bank
account. Thanks to compound interest you now own 98% of all the
world's wealth. And because you hoarded it for three million years,
nobody's got any money except for you and NorWEB. LISTER: Why NorWEB? HOLLY: You left a light on in the bathroom. I've got a final demand here
for one hundred and eighty billion pounds. LISTER: A hundred and eighty billion pounds?!! You're kidding! HOLLY: (Wearing a Grouch-Marx glasses-nose-and-moustache) April Fool. LISTER: But it's not April! HOLLY: Yeah, I know. But I can't be waiting six months with a red-hot

I'm just damn excited about the MagSafe connector. Probably half of all the laptop hardware repairs I've done were to replace the power connector. It's one of the weakest points in current design, and I'm glad to see someone finally innovating along that front. Although, if this catches on it will mean declines in laptop repair revenue....
Well, just like last year if you didn't have an SLI setup at E3 your display was a joke, I think this year if you don't have a RAID setup of these (do a RAID-1, so the heads move in a synchronized fashion), you'll get laughed out of the Staples center.
So, the next virus I get on my computer will have embedded in it's source code: "By reading this source code, you agree that W32.SonyRootKit.C will not be added to any antivirus definition lists or be recognized by any heuristics."
I can just see the coder in his dimly lit basement cackling while rubbing his hands in glee: "I have you now Norton!"
The final production testing is done by skilled female technicians who have the ability to test two at a time, in tandem. They've got some test hardware that I'm jealous of (fast-removal memory modules, CPU heatsinks that don't need full attachment, PCI and PCI Express logic testers, etc.) and can have a mainboard fully functionally tested in a matter of minutes.'"
Considering how many failed ECS boards I've had to deal with over the years, methinks they ought to crank the machine down from "Lucy Speed" to "Merely Insane Speed".
Since the radio is just a component of the car, the car as a whole could be considered a playback device. Are they sending this extortion attempt to car mechanics? No? Funny that...
I've got 4 computers at my disposal of various capabilities, and this is how Doom3 has run on them:
XP 2600 Ati Rad 9800 Pro 2 x WD Raptor striped raid 1GB PC3200 Corsair
Can run smooth on High settings at 800x600, AA disabled. Game looks fantastic
------
XP 2000 Geforce FX 5200 80GB 2mb buffer maxtor 512MB PC2700 Generic
Barely runs at 640x480. Framerates are in the 10-20 range. Would not recommend purchasing if you have similar specs. Upgrading the CPU or video card would have the largest impact.
------------
P4 2.4Ghz B ATI Radeon 9500 512MB PC2100 2 x 80GB Maxtor Striped RAID
Runs smooth on Medium settings at 640x480, or Low at 800x600. Definitely playable.

Haven't tried the 4th yet, but I don't hold much hope. It's an XP 1600 w/ GF4 Ti4200.
What the hell? They took that thing over Highway 166?? That road gets pretty damn curvy in parts. I'd love to see how this thing took some of those curves. You in Santa Maria too?
I hate to break it to ya buddy, but I was crushed when I found out, and I think you should know too. They use a laser ON your eye, to fix problems. They DON'T give you a laser eyeball to replace your puny and misshapen one. I know, I couldn't believe it either, but it's true. Shoulda taken that guy to court for false advertising.

I found that it's super easy to make human drivers crash with a simple $5 laser.
It's amazing how many of our systems only work with the underlying assumption that we're not actively trying to murder each other at any given moment.

Those hyper-intelligent pan-dimensional mice sure are good at getting humans to do all the work to cure mice of all disease and aging.

This is a textbook example of an ad hominem attack. If you have anything to say about his actual message, I'd be interested to hear it.

The cause of the failure could have been anything from a software glitch to a major hardware malfunction."
And let's all speculate aimlessly until we know which.
It doesn't say *you* it says *your* grandmother. So could your grandmother use it?
And if you really are offended by that, I have nothing but pity for you, because you must go through life constantly pissed off at nothing.
Vote for Turd Sandwich tomorrow. He's the complete package.
They might as well call it Star Trek:TNG Interface.
Star Wars is NOT sci-fi!
It's fantasy.
That is all.
God, I hope he keeps his clothes on this time. And Olmos better watch out, or he'll find that everyone has voted him off the Galactica
*yes I know it's a different Richard Hatch.
And if you open it to find out which it is, the wave collapses, the cat dies and you get a FAIL.
