The instructions I read for this stated that you simply wait a few minutes for the steam to clear up, at which point all the particles in the air would (theoretically) have fallen to the ground due to their increased weight.
All in all though, if you manage to do this mod, you've got cohones grandes.
In theory yes, but how would YOU like to write custom drivers for all those new House and Senate members every couple years? I mean, I don't even want to THINK what kind of kernel hacking you'd have to do to make Gary Condit run properly...
I know, I shouldn't feed the trolls, but I'm bored at work.:)
The trolls thank you for your patronage, and promise not to hurl their spears and axes at you in the future. Quoth the troll, "Say hello to my lil' friend!"
A top Bush-administration official, in a tie in with Richard Clarke's press release on hackers today gave his support to the Cult of the Dead Cow, a hacker group responsible for creating the juvenile-hacking utility known as "Back Orifice" or simply B.O. Whether this official's support is a tie in with the Bush administration's fundamentalist leanings is unknown. CotDC representatives were quoted as saying, "5w33t! 7h1s r0x0rs! w3 w1ll 0wnz j00 4ll n0w! ph34r u5!"
President Bush was unavailable for comment.
What will overclocking chips made with this new wire size do to their heat output? No matter, it still can't outperform my current Athlon/space-heater.
I figure it won't be long until someone starts mentioning security and privacy concerns in this thread, much the same as in the Spy Fly thread. The potential for privacy breaches with this kind of technology (taken to its final stupidity) is mind boggling. However, there are several easy methods of maintaining your security and privacy.
The first and perhaps most effective means would be to have some kind of device that generates a lot of electromagnetic waves or interference. Simply sweep a room with a big electromagnet and you will either short the bug out or pull it right onto the thing for you to crush, contain, whatever.
Second would be an EMP device. Such a device would be decidedly more effective and thurough than an electromagnet, but I think its a bit impractical because of the side effects. Sure, you'd short out any bugs that might be spying on you, but you'd be reduced to either magnetically shielding everything you own or living like the Amish.
A third option would be to introduce some kind of predator. Either develop countermeasure bugs or natural predators that prey on the look-alike species. A countermeasure bug would merely have to home in on transmitting sources to find their targets. Natural predators wouldn't be as good, though, as they wouldn't adhere to any schedules for debugging, and you would also have to care for and clean up after them, etc.
I'm sure there are other means out there as well, but this is all I could think of at the moment.

Don't even get me started on Traficant... that flashy GUI on top is totally fake.
Fortunatly, he's already been rm -r 'ed.

Sounds like a good plan...

Looks like a still. That boy making Moonshine? That brings up a couple questions...
Does an Athlon XP REALLY run hot enough to purify alcohal?
Would an alcohal cooling system work better than a water cooling system?
Would Guiness work better than Miller?
Why are we drinking warm beer?
I thought that's what Google's "cached page" function was for! :-)
*WHUMP! WHUMP! whimper*
Our Hero has fallen!
Damn you Redoc66! DAMN YOU!!!
If the watercooling system leaks, all you need to do is add some fish and you've got an aquarium.
Aw, isn't that cute, he's swimming around my CPU...

Fine words from someone who obviously hasn't played the game... My lvl 9 paladin is gonna have to lay some righteous beatdown on your ass now.
