GPL exists as a response to copyrights, but it depends on copylefts, which is quite opposite to copyrights.
From GPL: We protect your rights with two steps: (1) copyright the software, and (2) offer you this license which gives you legal permission to copy, distribute and/or modify the software.
The GPL depends on copyright, not copyleft. The GPL does, however, create/enforce copyleft.
This also has the potential to solve the NSAKEY contriversy once and for all
It only has the potential to show that there are backdoors. If there are no backdoors are in the source, the tinfoil hat crowd will just say that the leaked source isn't the version used to build windows binaries, and the controversy will continue.
As a young (19,) long distance hiker (Hiked the entire Appalachian Trail last year) I'm going to be pretty suprised if he can stick anywhere near that schedule. He's planning on going from Pinkham notch to Caratunk in 6 days, which is ~167 miles. That area is on par with the hardest sections of the trail, most thruhikers would be very impressed at averaging 20miles/day through there, yet he's intending to average 28!? In October no less, when there's could easily be a fair amount of snow on the ground. This hike has a lot common with M$, at least as far as big talk goes.
The steam itself doesn't improve compression, it helps to keep the engine from pinging. Pinging is a symptom of an engine with too high of a compression ratio, so if you can reduce pinging, the engine can be modified to produce more compression.
Big engines like what you are talking about inject water into the air intake, they don't mix it with gas. The water has a cooling effect which increases intake air density and power much like an intercooler on a turbocharged engine. Also, water helps prevent pinging (premature detonation) which allows higher compression ratios to be used, further increasing power output. So, the engines aren't doing anything especially interesting since they are only mixing gas vapor and water vapor.
I've bought a good bit of stuff on ebay, and have sold a few items also. I've only had two bad experiences with ebay, once I sent payment for an item (~$150) and never got the item, and the other I 'sold' an item, but never got payment. In the first case, I filled out the form and got a check from ebay's insurance company (can't remember the name) for about $130 (price of item-$20.) In the second case, I lost only the listing fee $1 and will relist the item soon (giving the guy a couple days just in case.) Just my two cents.
is what the school admins will do. Many (most?) admins at primary, elementary, and probably middle schools in the US are only going to allow access to this TLD (and possibly.edu.) I doubt that many useful sites will want to bother with running two isolated sites, so all the kids will be able to get from school is oversimplified junk and toy adds. Of course, some kids will figure out how to get around it, but those kids obviously have a 'net connection from home so they don't count;)

I realize that's what it should get used for, but from the first paragraph on CNN's article:
...a prototype reactor small enough and efficient enough to heat small homes and power cars.
What's the point in converting ethanol to hydrogen, then using the hydrogen to heat houses? Ethanol burns cleanly already!
...the fucking peice of shit compiler...
And people are worryed about this crap getting copied into open source projcets!? At least we can spell right in our coments.

After modding you funny, I can't seem to find the 'sad' option....

Obviously, their OCed server is using some non-silver based grease...
Win98 is at the top of the chart, but ME has 42%. Of course, since this is /. it should be clarified that Microsoft is the speedbump, not win98 ;)
