I don't know with ATSC, but in the DVB world (Europe), it is certainly possible to transmit a week's data (or more) for 100s of channels.
Though you can only transmit a set of EITs in a session, nothing prevents the box at the other end from caching the results so you can transmit different slots in sequence and the box will eventually receive them all.
Well he might use Publius - which is described as: "a Web publishing system that is highly resistant to censorship and provides publishers with a high degree of anonymity"
Basically you store the copy on any number of servers but the key is split up across other nodes. Retrieval of document requires all the key accessible in a simple format. None of the servers can get to the contents of the doc without the full key and therefore there's plausible deniability built in.
"IBM touted 2006 as a resurgence year for the mainframe, but not so fast."
IBM are also heavily investing in Grids, particularly with their support of the Globus Alliance Toolkit (see http://www.globus.org/)
Crazy? No, they are aiming at different targets. Mainframes are controlled by individual companies, grids are hoped to eventually be the equivalent of TCP - ubiquitous, reliable and cheaply available everywhere. That means your next Windows Vista T1000, Ubuntu Beam-me-up (TM) and self-aware toaster will seamlessly provide services to allow you to participate in grid-like problems just like any appliance. No more downloading the google toolbar to help cancer research, another app for cracking encryption, another app for predicting weather and so on...
Article is misleading: there's no "undeletion" here. Windows is merely taking a snapshot of the state of the mountpoint every x minutes and providing a simple interface to it.
Incidentally it is very easy to set this up under samba (on Linux) too - just use LVM, setup a cron job to take a snapshot (no downtime or disk thrashing) and create a mount point. Install the free extension for Windows XP (or hey, if you've got Vista you've got this installed already) and you're done.
I've been to the presentation of this @ Karlsruhe. From the looks of it, it looks really really well designed with a great K.I.S.S. principle all the way. Nice clean separation of userspace/kernel space and a real simple config file.
I would give it a shot!
We have 2 native languages where I come from and I also picked up a third just by watching TV. I can read/write/speak all three of them very fluently without any noticeable accent.
Like most of the other people, we also tried to learn a 4th language at school (French or German) but I do not know a single person who can claim he would understand a native speaking it today.
The difference? I learnt the first 3 perfectly well at a very young age while I tried to learn the 4th at around the age of 12 so I guess something must have died off along the way.
I enjoy giving people this test:
Write a long sentence and make sure that the last word of the sentence is a filler word. Then write that filler word again at the start of the next sentence and write some more.
Eg:
Yesterday I went to the beach and saw the the boat I always dreamt about.
~ 7 out of 10 people fail to spot it, even if told beforehand there's an obvious error. Somehow music people are more prone to spot the error straight away.
Use ltsp. It's the only thing you'll need. First decide if you want a Windows solution or a Linux one. If you want to go to Linux, configure the thin clients to boot to X (trivial!). Otherwise configure it to run rdesktop in full screen mode to connect to a Windows Terminal Server (also very easy to do). Runs perfectly well here.
Some more extrapolated stats (hey the RIAA can do it so we can do it too):
Yesterday 5 SuSe packages were sold. Since there is no additional cost to install other copies, one can say that this is equivalent to having 5/0 PCs running Linux.
This means that Linux is installed an infinite number of times more than Windows. Wohoo!
FYI, iBooks are also very, very sturdy. Mine took a leap from a table (~3ft up) due to dog, and survived. And it was on, with the screen open, and CD-ROM drive out (It shootso ut form the side). And it landed on its side.
Finally a true clear picture of the kernel! With this concise clear and stunning graphical 3d image I can finally progress beyond the Hello World modules. Lost in a function? Not sure how the kernel works? I'll just look at the wonderful lines and dots buried in the haze of blue and hey presto! All is revealed. Thank you for the amazing contribution to the world of computer science! Next up: a graphical representation of all the source code bits after mangled through a blender..stay tuned!

1. Show the image in an alternate pornographic/warez/whatever website
2. Ask the user to type it in to access the site
3. Use the user's input to access the original protected site
4. There is no step 4.

Very useful feature.
Adding an "@" in front of a command in the Makefile causes that single line to be silent.
....until you try simultaneous dma transfers and the whole board locks up! Check the linux kernel mailing lists.
or how about you just sms the isbn number printed below the hard-to-scan ( no dammit that's not the book I want ) and obtain the same thing????

Say you're a lawyer and you file your cases something like:
c:\year\case\client\outcome
Now you want to search these according to:
c:\client\year\case\outcome
This is not currently possible with directories without a huge PITA and this is one area where winFS can shine.
Maybe the hubs just fed out /dev/random and the feds confused the resulting output as Britney Spear's music....
MARID means sick in the Maltese language... someone must not have done his homework well :-)
What's this like? I've only ever received SIGKILL, SIGTERM, SIGINT....

Did the dog survive after all this???
Surely you mean Kirritating right? :o)
(or not)
$3,800? How much that in iBooks?
