yes, true, but windows update was done after.... so how do u update win98,when it has no updater? IE ofcourse.... tho yes XP should have its own proper controlpanel (updater) or something.
Now if only mozilla could 'update' it self via its own menu.... hmmmm innovation.
Pitty the software on the rover cant take the 50-200 small images, and auto stitch them based on maths of the angle posistions of the cam for each shot, then mix the R.G.B images... then compress the 8000x2000 image with jpeg2000 at a high quality setting, better to send a 4meg image, then 120meg of raw pixels, surely the detail in the sky is useless and could/should have been compressed, hardly any scientific data there. Even lossless jpeg2000.
Hopefully this kind of magic is on the drawing board for future missions.
So now we have 3 sats orbiting mars... and ZERO on the moon, why is the moon so much ignored... tho there is one on its way.
The moon needs a new map at 1pixe/foot or something, get something with a damn powerfull zoom lens to orbit the moon at 65km. Im waiting...
Also whats the best that earth based telescopes can take photos of the moon? Id lke to see them.
The VLT is intended to achieve an effective angular resolution of 0.001 arcsecond at a wavelength of 1 m. This is an angle of 0.000000005 radians, equivalent to resolving a target 2 meters across at the distance between the Earth and Moon.
So then the photos by that should reveal a damn good image. Though only 1 angel.
This is a damn good close up tho. http://www.eso.org/outreach/press-rel/pr-200 2/phot -19a-02-fullres.jpg Though only 50m/pixel.
the little people always get shafted, while the CEOs and productmanagers get shit loads of cash.... for basically work which any programmer with 1/2 his brain running could do any way.
Any way, real hackers would just recode the opcodes in the watches CPU. Assembly is easy, if you dont know how, then go away and drink beer and watch football.
How does that seriously impact peoples daily business, they just CLICK, run the app, encode, bingo its done, legal or not, doesnt change how the universe works, its done. How it was done is lost in time , in the past with no record.:)
If you think OGG is so good, why not use ac3, it gives you 5.1 as well, and your AMP plays it/decoders it directly, no PC decoding. So its as close as digital as you can get to the speakers.
remember 5.1
I say ac3 wins.
Whether its 64kbps or 384bps, we dont care, disk space is cheap.
Why can't the universities just PAY the 3rd/4th year computer programmers to mod the OpenOffice to support it? Better yet, waive all uni fees/and refund all they paid, that way it bypasses the tax man.
idiot, there are mars photos from pathfinder showing its sunrises/twilight with a real blue sky, which turns pink in the morning. So never say never....
Yes, but when you have lots of dust in the air, looking down from space, the ground can be less seen.
On mars, we still see the ground very well, its not hazy from space. The polar caps are white, not pink. The martian sky isnt thick full of stuff, its densitiy is very low. But lots of red light would bounce off the surface and possibly bounce back to the ground, not like the moon where there is nothing.
Also being 63million KM further than us would have a dimmer sun as well.
Either way, we have access to raw filter data, and we can make our own.
The true drug cartells are UNTOUCHABLE

with trillons of $ at stake.
The drug cartel can buy what it wants to protect it self, and they do.
The drug cartells have so much cash they can afford to design/build their own sat and launch from china for their own private voice calls under a fake company designed for normal sat calls or even just launch from russia.
On the ground, they have so much cash they can hire the best guns in town (esp after all these unemployed ppl) to make their own high tech russian design encryptos tiny phones. And they do.
THe only way the big cartells can be touched is with the military, even then the US isnt going to go thumping down 5 countries and doing it.
Even after all this, after 30-60 years of drug dealing and using all profits to make legit businesses and reinvesting in markets and whatnot, its estimated up to 20% of the world GDP is derived from drug trafficing, so tearing all those down would just cause a massive collapse, you cant just seize 20% of all businesses in the US and 'resell em' at bargin prices. The drug barons will trash/burn their old businesses down after being seized and even after that would probably hunt down the new owners.
Bottom line, legalize all drugs, (no cant do that, the old fatcats dont like drugs) but then the CIA would loose 1/2 its revenue.
Time to build 50 of the damn beagles and launch them at once 73 * 50 = 3600kg, easily launched on a Titan5 or Ariane5. Sure it might cost $120m to launch, and be hard to fit 50 landers in one bigass probe, but hey, it would be the best result ever! with 20-50 locations being rovered at the same time.

Why dont we get the professors off their ass and stop them plagerising question/answers tests and make them do some work for a change :)

No, he'll say, 'wassssuppppp' for 20mins until he gets an answer.
But seriously, it would be good to do and easy to send new supplies every 6-12 months or 24months, he can build a green house and grow some pot.

Wow... what did you do with her later... any photos of that?
Also my cheapo 2.1mp has decent results too.
Yes, pitty the employees cannot vote like a democracy in voting IN/OUT CEos/Managers/CTOs
:)
But we are stuck with a 'communist' model for corporates.
A new revolution is due....
maybe nasa should ask the military for help in what they have at area51.
Unless they are already on the moon which would make nasa look real dumb wouldn't it.
Well, amazingly that videocamera with the tape survived the spaceshuttle disintigrating to earth....
the little people always get shafted, while the CEOs and productmanagers get shit loads of cash.... for basically work which any programmer with 1/2 his brain running could do any way.
DOnt they take commercial laptops into the space station and space shuttles all the time?
Only satelites need special chips etc.... unless you want to walk on the moon and look at your watch.
What can linux do that freebsd cant? dumbasses
Any way, real hackers would just recode the opcodes in the watches CPU. Assembly is easy, if you dont know how, then go away and drink beer and watch football.
bahh
;)
i already add my wifes period time to my 'reminder' calander on my mobile
BEEP BEEP, PMS due in 5 mins.
Personally I never use a watch my self.
1. why wear something that you use say 3-5 seconds per day, dumb shit really.
2. my mobile has the clock
3. my pda has a clock
4. my pc and every other pc has a clock
5. theres lots of clocks in the city churches
6. times are at all public transport places, and cars.
What is the point of wearing a watch, this dumbass old contraption.
If anything, id prefer a RING that has a tiny watch.
Watches, damn old shit, from the 17th century, out of date and useless, and damn anoying feeling wearing it too.
DO people really care if LAMe is legal?
:)
How does that seriously impact peoples daily business, they just CLICK, run the app, encode, bingo its done, legal or not, doesnt change how the universe works, its done. How it was done is lost in time , in the past with no record.
mp3/ac3 is my choice.
Who gives a rats ass bout FLAC.
:)
Can the xbox XBMP play it? if not, then who cares.
We want a format that 95% of hardware can play.
192kbps anything will sound great.
Though ac3 wins
Take note.
Helix Media server can serve real and quicktime and wmedia formats.
Enjoy.
If you think OGG is so good, why not use ac3, it gives you 5.1 as well, and your AMP plays it /decoders it directly, no PC decoding. So its as close as digital as you can get to the speakers.

Surely it would be cheaper to reinstall everything gradually onto lots of freebsd boxes.

Why pay MS. Its better students get the cash.
idiot, there are mars photos from pathfinder showing its sunrises/twilight with a real blue sky, which turns pink in the morning. So never say never....

and if the colors are correct, would he complain?
no
