  9. Re:Stirling engine on 'Reversible' Computers More Energy Efficient · · Score: 2, Interesting

    1. Stirling engines are too bulky . While efficient heat engines they are not practical . They have been used once in project by detroit but didn't produce much power. Power is key ,what everyone wants.

    2. Circuits compared to reverse logic are probably inefficient but the heat comes from Clock speed and thinner interconnects and poor insulators(dielectrics at present sizes).

    This is the reason for the push for spintronic transistors . google that.

  13. interesting points that i see on FCC To Hold First VoIP Hearings; Rules in 2004 · · Score: 2, Informative

    Two paragraphs from the boardwatch website that i found interesting."

    The immediate issues at hand are whether or not VOIP telephony providers should be subject to the same rules and regulations as traditional phone companies. And, if not, what kind of rules are appropriate for these providers. Key areas of debate center around whether VOIP providers must offer an E911 service, pay into the universal service fund, and enable government agencies to tap VOIP calls (known as CALEA-compliance) for homeland security purposes

    Complicating the picture even further are the incumbent telecom providers that see VOIP as a giant threat to their installed business and are in no rush to see these services heralded into the mainstream. "The price of these new services is drastically cheaper, and the quality is almost as good," says Kelley Drye's Price. "It's a massive threat to the incumbents."

    Why not do SOMETHING ?

    1. Go after SCO's customers that use linux and tell them that they will be sued unless they STOP paying the SCO license.

    2. Go after Sco customers that don't use linux and warn them that the SCO operating system may have GPL code in it and they will be fined a million dollars.

    Attack where Mcbride attacks.

    Linux users can also participate by emailing the SCO's big $$$$ Clients and warning them that you wont buy their product.

    Sitting back for court cases is not what Mcbride is doing and neither should people that believe in
    open source.

    First the phone companies will fall. Which is good

    municipals leading the way we will see the biggest

    revolution since the invention of radio and the
