Why do it by your self ? We should look toward the solution, which is already tried, and tested. Common people! The solution is obvious: Go on. Ask for help Superman.
From the article: (The mirror) "...would be made of 1,500 hexagonal segments..."
Therefore the size of one node would be 2.5m not just a mere 10cm as you suggested. Making mirrors of this size wouldn't be as easy task. If they decided to go with 10cm size, the number of motorized mirrors to produce would be 1,000,000.
"...and encrypt specified files on your computer so that 'they' can't have them..."
You see, the problem with encryption is that it can be broken. Also, your PC can be taken away, before the program executes. Your HD can be removed, files restored.
There is only one good solution to this:
Place a dozen or more of dynamite sticks inside your case (don't stint), and make sure not to be seen by your colleagues from your company. Place battery inside and connect it with a fuse through some digital "count down" timer. Place "ON" switch on the box door, and wire it to the circuit, so nobody can open your PC without "surprise". You are almost done. The last thing is to connect the clock to the reset switch on the box, and disconnect it from the system (By the way, you don't need reset button on the Linux machine. It newer hangs). You will be required to press the reset button minimum once a week, and few second after every reboot to prevent the box from going OFF. Have fun.
To be more accurate, I must add to my previous statement, that
actually the sound pressure will be 100 000 greater, but because human hearing is not linear, and responds logarithmically to sound, it would not be perceived that loud.
Quiet home 25-35 Background in private office 35-40 dB. Human voice at 1 m 55-60 dB. Average radio or TV 70-90 dB. Unmuffled truck, police whistle 80-100 dB. Rock band or very loud orchestra 100-120 dB. Jet takeoff, artillery fire, riveting 120+ dB.
Would you share with the rest of us all the necessary steps required, cause I bet the majority of the Slashdot readers do not have idea how to do it properly.
I type inline comments on the right side of the code, so it forms its own collumn of text. This way anybody can read it when it's neaded, and its presence is not distructive at all while reading the code.
...attack by sending billions of "GET HERBAL VIAGRA" e-mails from the.cn TLD." The article has a reasonable amount of information and is probably worth a read if you're curious about what could be a real big deal in the future.
I can't wait to read the article about HERBAL VIAGRA, and I know "that thing" could be a real big deal in the future.
"Win" - as a winning, for complying with the court order and producing not-really-working, stripped to the bones version of Windows, constantly crushing, "proving" that it was not a good idea to slash it anyway, forcing customers to slowly add MS components to make it work again, and at the end making Microsoft more money.
I have to inform you that, unfortunately all of you guys just happened to be victims of a bad translation from Japanese. I always had a feeling that using babelfish translator is a bad idea.
This is not a super computer, but a nicely designed, large locker room of Japanese agriculture factory named "Earth Simulator".
Take a look at the pictures and judge for yourselves.
I strongly disagree that it is cheaper to buy a telescope, than to make it by yourself.
There is no way "ready to buy" telescopes could come close to the quality of image you can get with home made dobsonian telescopes in the same price category.

Episode VIII "Darth Vader vs. Dark Batman"
Episode IX "Han Solo vs. Princess Leia Organa"
Since those projects are categorized as being in production, the data is subject to change or could be removed completely.

I couldn't agree more. I always thought that hardness promotes penetration. ;-)

I do not know if it is just a coincidence, or a hidden message, but CIPA in polish stands for female sex organs.

It's so simple.
