"(Japan) will also have to pay for the electricity to power the reactor. Once the reactor is running, it should generate some 20 times the energy required to get it started."
The AP article lists reasons why Japan is a good site.
Most important among these (IMHO) is the nearby ocean port. The Japan site will allow parts to be transported by sea to the location in one piece, as opposed to the French, which requires a 41 mile trip, then assembly. It will also allow easy harvesting of deuterium ions for fusion from nearby ocean water.
I would also add that France and Japan are both allies of the US. Given recent events, which is a "better" ally?
So which is the "better" choice for all those extra jobs?
I know about all the bonuses of 1.1. I'm waiting for a 1.2. I don't like the layout of 1.1, especially after using 1.0 for several months.
I did not see that they had fixed the vinyl problem until just now, thanks.
But, the overall point is, technology does not make you a better DJ. Neither do promos. It's talent and skill, and those are becoming fewer as more DJs enter the market.
The problem is, it's already a saturated market, and any less-experienced DJ can take a gig away from someone who has real talent. So many people go to a club not to hear the music but to participate in some human mating ritual. Many club owners couldn't care less if the DJ has any real skill, just as long as they're making money.
Nope. The real DJs will continue to use plain old vinyl.
Final scratch works properly but has inferior sound quality. This is just simply due to the lossy compression of mp3.
Plus, the vinyl that they sell with it now is weak. It's pressed too thin, and any scratches or bumps on the record will show up in the mix.
Anyone that tells me vinyl is dead or dying has not seen how fast promos can sell out.
I'm a DJ and a vinyl collector. I've collected thousands of dollars in "music recordings" over the short 3.5 years. But I haven't ever piloted a plane, started my own foundation, or had children.
What is this "life" you speak of and where can I get one? Apparently I haven't been doing shit with my time so far except listening to jive-ass music.

Yeah. I would say the worst thing that could happen to a kid literarily would be to not learn how to read.
And, obviously, this is all my fault. That's why I should have to sacrifice now to atone for the actions of my oppressive European colonial ancestors.

Iraq has nothing to do with it, at least according to that AP article.
Seeing as a new Linux kernel release is the absolute most important thing in the world...</sarcasm>
Sauron: You know, I have one simple request. And that is to have ringwraiths with frickin' laser beams attached to their heads!
If it means not having to hang around 300 rabid Slashdot nerds in a dark theatre, you can add me to that list.
2. Capture picture of TV.
3. Turn TV back on.
4. Repeat as neccessary.
Oh, I almost forgot...
5. ???
6. Profit.

I assumed it was like my Midiman Ozone, a 24/96 card with a USB cable that can handle the audio and MIDI at the same time just fine.

Hence, why there are so many USB MIDI devices.

Arrr, matey, ya got me. A pirate I be. Yo ho ho.

Since everyone is choosing to pay up over jailtime, it seems like quite a money making scheme.
No, but they'd still have a truckload of your money.
All proceeds go to EFF.
You'd have to add "What was that?" or "I can't understand you!" or something...
School administrations can't do anything anymore that isn't difficult.
