0-60mph in 7 seconds or more will severely limit your chances of merging on short ramps into heavy fast traffic in freeways:P
as for the 250HP rating is that BHP? or actual at the wheels power? my Truck is rated to do close to 300BHP but puts around 200 or so the the wheels (ouch)
but thats the thing with the hybrids.. they may be slow as shit but they do convert that generated power to movement at very great efficiencies
" They warn that if the FCC goes through with its plans, cable companies and the Baby Bells will quickly establish a monopoly on broadband service over their own networks."
The quote in the article states that this could give the Cable companies a monopoly on broadband.. This I see as bad because there is no compeition (locally) for cable companies. you get what is there, I see it bad for pricing/monitoring
you get 1 choice of cablemodem (cable company) or 1 choice of DSL (local phone company) or satelite (not great for gaming) and no real competition. Who wants to bet that Innovation in this field is the next to die?
That satelite still would have been cheaper for them
and no i'm not talking about starband/direcpc type home user setup, I mean the buisness setups which are much nore reliable.
"The internet has no pristine foundation. It is a combination of openly developed standards put together over time."
Thats a nice reality check right there. The internet was developed or still is developing on a patchwork of standards and protocols. it is open to just about everyone.
Over time I have watched usefull information fade away to porn and $$.. if i know something why should I tell you? pay me first attitudes.
all it does is make it harder to learn anymore and now with the DMCA makes it even harder! since putting a timer on my toaster is now illegal
(rant off)
only ftp?
what about email?
or the web in general?
I have a feeling that this whole piracy thing will just end bad.. before to long the internet will be for big buisness and govt.
don't buy that beer in a bag stuff!
yeah, sounds cheap to begin with and turns out to be.. buy a quality setup and you will be drunk as lonmg as you can afford to be:)
Is that the behavior of most of these now extinct animals is learned.. just as humans, passed on from generation to generation. So if we now bring these animals back how do we teach them to act? starting with a brainwashed species would not be the same as still having it around.. you could technically bring back a fierce hunting/meat eating dinosaur and have it as a house pet.. could be interesting

And I doubt that Joe Outback has equipment to detect the carrier-wave of 10^-9 W.
But successfull amateur radio operators and radi astronomers were able to hear the mars global surveyor beacon while in orbit around mars with some specialized equiptment.. most of which was surplus and homemade and not to far out of reach of most peoples checkbooks.
as for anything more than that you would need some pretty heavy funding.
but seriously tho.
I think this would be really cool, somewhat pointless but it may give them some insight into leaving probes or spacecraft in space sitting dormant, or on a planet or asteroid waiting for a specific time to activate. Hell we all kno this was just a test run.. the next time this is done some form of explosive will land on an asteroid and wait untill it gets close to earth then acivate and explode. On another note, bet they wish they had remote controll of the lunar lander on the moon:)

This would make twice.. the poor town is grinding to a halt

Was this posted awhile back?
or did I read about another group that did this a few months or so ago?
It would be a great comparison!
:)
set them side by site and wait untill one explodes
I think the M$ (read, always system hungry)server would die first.. altho you would have to make sure both use equal bandwith.
you could always power them from potato's

A, B, F
a. It's probably not near me
b. I'm too poor to travel
f. I don't want to make myself available for easy capture.
Guess that would give the blue screen of death a whole new meaning... ouch!
any suggestions?
yay a first post! I can finally go to bed
Would this be before or after they have on Powergloves and are flying around inside the computer representation VR type thing?

The tv's software will lock and prevent channel surfing durring commercial time
yep
only ftp? what about email? or the web in general? I have a feeling that this whole piracy thing will just end bad.. before to long the internet will be for big buisness and govt.
next they will shot down all non buisness approves websites and services...

that would be your best bet
it's time for a new standard package system.. I say we name it SPAM! Software Package Advanced Management

yeah yeah I know I can't type but i'm sure you can read through the speeling airors
no sun hitting the solar panels would drain the batteries. maybe they knew they were going to try this so kept a reserve
