actually was originally forecasted to be a bad one and cause some serious problems and peak between 2010 and 2015. Now it's been forecasted to be milder and actually cause cooler seasons.
“A new active period of Earth-threatening solar storms will be the weakest since 1928 and its peak is still four years away, after a slow start last December, predicts an international panel of experts led by NOAA's Space Weather Prediction Center. Even so, Earth could get hit by a devastating solar storm at any time, with potential damages from the most severe level of storm exceeding $1 trillion.”
showed this when they used sand to stop a bank robber and his get away car by blowing air under the sand and it fluctuated just like water would have and caused the guy and car to sink, and once the air was stopped the sand solidified again.
The Urban Car weighs just 772 pounds (350 kilograms), can reach speeds of 50 miles (81 kilometers) per hour, and has a range of more than 200 miles (322 kilometers).
While my Jeep may be heavier, it too on a full tank of gas has a range of 200 miles, and can reach speeds of 50 MPH. And it won't struggle on a hill and I can take my groceries home. I'll be more interested in a car like this that would more practical for the family life.
But it is interesting that the engineers will soon post the entire design on the wiki, and anyone can lease the it for free, modify it, and manufacture their own vehicle.

they offer 1-clicks for other distros too. check out check out the site, then click on the drop down and you'll see you can search for other distros too.
I'm wondering if they mean something like suse's 1-click installs. They're neat and they have them for other distros too like redhat and debian. Basically if a software is not in the standard distro you can search for it at software.opensuse.org/search and click on the 1-click. It'll then run in Yast. Enter your root password like you would to open the software management and then go on your merry little way.
And KDE comes w/ Konqueror. Is that bad? Gnome comes with Epiphany. Is that bad? Yes, Firefox is included generally w/ a distro. But these are all bundled w/ the DE. So should they not be, or is it okay because FF is included?
Why should Microsoft be forced to offer these? As much as I hate MS, it is their software and browser. It makes sense they include it with their OS. They don't stop you from downloading Fire Fox or Safari or Opera or even Konqueror. The problem shouldn't be that IE is included. It should be that it's so integrated into the OS that you have no choice but to have it installed or things break majorly. I've been confused from the very beginning of why the EU is getting so hung up that a company is including their own software with their own software. MS doesn't prevent you from installing another browser. So what's the problem?
See THIS is the problem. Not the fact that's included and that they don't include any other browser bla bla bla. The problem is how IE is integrated into the OS. That should be what the EU is trying to attack.
Eventually people will get annoyed by all the choices, and complain, and then OEMs will just start picking whatever software is most popular - but nobody will be able to pin the blame on them.
What would that do? Unless someone knows how to use Linux, having that option is useless. I think that Linux needs to start putting some pressure on hardware manufactures to port the drivers over. Who cares if it's open source drivers or not, as long as they work. There are distros out there for the people that feel dirty because they use non-oss software on Linux. Proprietary software isn't going away. Then Linux has to start pushing into the market. Make their presence known to more than just geeks and big companies. Then once we get the information out there, we gotta find a way to teach it to the users too.

Did MySpace start blocking Linux browsers?
Oh I already see the C-rated movie with the incredibly bad plot.
and let out a big screech followed by the sound of glass breaking and it saying "Danger Will Robinson! Danger!"
Solar Cycle 24 Prediction Updated May 2009
2012-13: NOAA predicts solar cycle 24 ”weakest since 1928” with $1 trillion damages in worst case. From second article:
Considering some other things the gov't has done to the people.
until the drive space is taken up? Drive storage can get expensive.
Like that scene from the Princess Bride. "He's not dead, just mostly dead."
It'd be better if they all came to a consensus on where libraries go and follow the Filesystem Hierarchy Standard and a package system.
But the UK wants to put it PRIVATE houses. Not in PUBLIC areas where expectation of privacy doesn't exist.
He probably took the money and ran.

I wonder of the Supreme Court would have been more inclined to take the case?

All I could find was an i586 rpm
I must be missing the joke somewhere?
They make it necessary.
they can't seem to find a job.

So, same problem but different company?
