That's easy. I multi-directionally broadcast it into space. In the event I need to recover the data, I'll just invent a faster-than-light drive, zip out past the signal, and pick it all up on an antenna. At sufficient signal strength, it should be recoverable long past my expected lifetime. For extreme cases I encode it into a narrowly focused laser, which I aim at the event horizon of a black hole.

Visual Studio.NET. There are some good development tools on Linux but nothing touches VS.NET for easy of use. I also like that I don't have to mess around with the command line to do anything in windows. EVERYTHING is GUI based for me. Windows is also more consistent in the UI (sure, not between versions though) unlike Linux where the apps run under whatever GUI toolkit the user had installed. Don't get me wrong, I would LOVE to switch tomorrow, but that's like programming in Notepad. No thanks. Other apps I love: Outlook (patched properly), SQL Server 2000.

Just because there's a similarity in the group doesn't mean its the cause. 100% of people who die have at one point breathed air. If we could just stop breathing air, we'd never die.

NOTE: This has nothing to do with MSN Messenger it's purely the "NET SEND" command.
American People Shrug, Line Up For Fingerprinting
WASHINGTON, DCAssuming that there must be a good reason for the order, U.S. citizens lined up at elementary schools and community centers across the nation Monday for government-mandated fingerprinting. I'm not exactly sure what this is all about, said Ft. Smith, AR, resident Meredith Lovell while waiting in line. But given all the crazy stuff that's going on these days, I'm sure the government has a very good reason. Said Amos Hawkins, a Rockford, IL, delivery driver: I guess this is another thing they have to do to ensure our freedom.
150GB * 334 drives = 50TB = ~$100,000
add $19,900,000 for consulting fees and you've got your 20 million. Speaking as a consultant, that seems reasonable to me.

Homer: Well, what do you think? Editor: This is a joke, right? I mean this is the stupidest thing I've ever read! Homer: What's wrong with it? Editor: You keep using words like "Pasghetti" and "Momatoes" You make numerous threatening references to the UN and at the end you repeat the words "Screw Flanders" over and over again. Homer: Oh, it's so hard to get to 500 words.
Just replace "Flanders" with "Open Source" and you're done.
I've always thought the ideal PDA would basically be a Sony Walkman with the entire cover being a color LCD screen. That way, all storage could be done with CD-R's or DVD's, no messy compact flash, memorystick, whatever, infinte storage. Add a stylus and a decent OS and you've got the best PDA ever. Toss in GPS and a Hi-Res screen and you're set.

I pay $39.95 CDN (or $24.75 USD) for 1.5Mb DSL here in Canada, where it gets mighty cold in the winter, after some hard thinking, I've realized that I'd drop cable, and heat, before you get me to drop high speed internet. Go back to a modem? Not if I can help it.

XMLTV should od the trick.

Amen to that!
You can easily turn off all the 'fluff', when you do that it actually makes quite a nice OS (with ClearType!)
