I think one of the first models of the universe was A BALL with the eart in the centre, moon and sun revolving arround the earth while the planets had strange trajectories inside the ball. On the interior walls of the ball the stars were painted. This model was easily accepted by the cristian church because there was room left for god, heaven and hell outside the ball. And I thought we progressed a lot in the mean time. STUPID ME!
I wish Europe would have made it to the 60s but on the other hand is really that inportant to have maned space flights nowadays or is it just goo for publicity?
Fortunately some countries rich/poor are starting to implement the free/OSS model. Some are doing it for political reasons, other for economical reasons, but by doing so it will put more "pressure" on the poor countries's corrupt decision makers when they will have to account for the zillions spent on purchassing crrapy software when they could just opt for the free/OSS model like the "civilized" world.
Probably the new 8.5GB drives will cost you an arm and a leg and media will be prohibitive as well. Right know you can get a samsung ide drive of 160GB 7200rpm less than 100$. The cost per GB is not mutch higher of that of the DVDs and with DVDs you have spenf money on the burner as well. More than that the reliability of the drive is much greater, you can write and erase from as mutch as you like, speed is mutch better and to add on top it is more compact (160Gb means arround 35 dvds). Do not spend money on DVD technology.
It has nothing to do with 2G over 3G as a technology in itself. It has to do with power levels and high frequencies. Meanining a 2400bps chanell at 30Ghz and an EIRP of 60dbw will mess you up pretty bad while an 11Mbps 802.11 17dbm at 2.4Mhz would not hurt you.

A third of a meter is a third of a meter. BTW what is the 7th of a yard?

I bet the first manned mission to Mars will be called "The long march".

I thought it is pretty hard to renounce your citizenship. Imagine I hold no other citizenship but I renounce mine know. Where would they expell me?
Then Dell is not such a bad place after all!
Welcome to the ciberdog.
When you get playboy the helicopters should be pink?
Yes. I will do so but first I will wrap them in aluminium foil and put them in my bag. That way I will never be late bringing the books back. ;)
In my mind only pops up the word DOS!! Jam their frequencies and they are f...ed.
But the dogs will carry RFIDs on their collars so you can easily sue the owner.
Probably I would not be able to take from library the book "How to build a nuke in your garage in 2 hours" withouth having the FBI allover me.

I was just wondering is anywere mentioned in the legal system that you cannot build a nuke?
Actually I really like diversity so having both xine and mplayer as separate projects is a very good thing.
You could do Mars bounce out of the orbit :)). Actually if it is EIRP is not that much. 1W SSPA and 5m parabolic dish would do the trick.
Yea. Wear our lead helmet to protect you from those nasty 3G waves and will also enlarge your penis.
