Which is why they think he might live. If he can at least achieve speed and angle needed to survive a water landing it will still be a very cool...something...

Ehese two points sound like some kind of hocus pocus BS to me.
"At such high altitude, above the jet stream, the reduced air density means that the wind will be about 20 times weaker than at ground level, enabling the airship's solar-powered electric motors to keep it stationary with very little effort."
And would also be 20 times weaker thrust from the motors? How does this make sense?
And in another part of the article it can produce lift in the wind? How? If it's being blown backwards it can't produce lift.
I do like the idea very much and had hoped for the unpiloted plans from a few years back to make a go of it but haven't heard anything out of that project in a long time.

Since it hasn't been mentioned in this thread. JunOS
is essentially FreeBSD.
So, you can do cool stuff that the/. crowd should enjoying like running multiple virtual routers on a laptop. http://www.lab-rats.net/v-olive.html
Being FreeBSD based, the Unix geek with no previous routing experience can learn it, IMHO, faster than the Cisco assuming no previous experience with either.
The key to not being unemployed would be to actually learn how to do real stuff rather than stagnate. Somebody that's actively into what they do is going to be fine as always, further trimming of the wankers, frauds and recent converts to Linux from Windows is Ok with me.
The replays and ballistics through bodies stuff is creepy. First time it showed the replay of JFK losing a chunk of brain I was actually horrified.
This is different than blasting monsters a bazillion times with unrealistic weapons. It actually friggin makes you see, hear, BE the killer.
On the other hand it answers a lot of questions I'd always had about the distance and angle of the shots. The sim idicates that JFK was in an exposed position, much more so than I'd ever noticed before. Randomly blasting into the car seems to take out JFK more often than the other characters.
Hover mowers are still around, Husky makes one, it will mow over water, chops the weeds down to the water, kind of fun. You have to ease it into the water or it will sink though.
Better than that though I saw some contraptions on a trailer that were I think, riding hover mowers.
Verizon. Two different service levels, nation wide right now, 80-133kbps inbound 44kbps outbound. EV-DO service in DC, Vegas and San Diego, 300-500kbps inbound unsure on the outbound. '05 national for EV-DO Performance is much enhanced with a good 800/1900 dual band antenna and 3 watt amp like the digital antenna DA4000. Using this setup I've done some long drives while listening to stream audio (voice programs not music) in the car , like Austin to Dallas, nonstop audio streaming. It's cool. Latency on these connections
SUCKS though, it's all over the map from 400 to 800ms. So forget out getting the $80 unlimited plan and making unlimited calls.
And it is no shocker that this just works on the Mac. It just works BETTER on a Mac than on my PC's supported or not. I much prefer this kind of connectivity to Wifi because it does not tie me down to one location. Using a crank up 3' mount on my camper with a yagi on top I get the most insane coverage area you've ever seen. 40 miles outside of the regular VZ coverage area is easy. Haven't even had a chance to try a mountain top location yet but I bet it's going to have signal.
Easier way to do this is to use a camera that just takes a pic every so many minutes and just tie it to a stable kite. It will dangle around randomly but it works and you get a decent picture sometimes.
As to putting a wireless camera on a kite, just put a wireless camera on a really high performance stunt kite and then wear a head mounted display while you fly it around at 100mph. That would make an exciting vomit machine.

Wait a minute here, he was arrested and paid someone to do his community service. Arrested AGAIN for counterfiting, was let go with a slap on the wrist. Kept getting bigger and better at it
and was finally caught a third time? Seems to me that
the first two offenses needed time in the slammer.
The social engineering he did was clever, I liked that part, but it sounds to me like Canadian law is just way too complacent.

Look for the overseer because if there was a creator it would probably mean that we are some kind of slaves.
Flying data platforms are to slashdot as the end of the IC engine and flying cars were/are to Popular Mechanics and PopSci.

Pancreatic will whack you that fast, and it's almost untreatable, so that would be my guess.

You could do this for yourself or for a small company which is a great idea!

I remember reading about a system from Sandia or some other national lab in the late 80's that would locate and automatically return fire on snipers.
