Don't get me wrong, we need to consider foreign languages, culture, etc etc, but c'mon, this nonstop talk about poor dotheads and technology is ridiculous.
Came from the post that I was replying to, please ignore this
Listen, Indians are great people,... but really, who gives 2 shits about Indians,
they take our jobs and they smell like curry.
Most of India is in povety, you first say that they are great people (i.t.o. character and the like) but then justify your uncaring attitude because they are getting 'your' jobs and smell different to you. This is fickle. The reason why they have 'your' jobs is because 'your' corperations decide that it is better to make a buck than to employ peoplr at home. This is part of the global economy. That america has been pushing for.
In America we have plenty of poor people to worry about,
poor dotheads in India are inconsequential.
I imagine that their 'dotheads' has just as much worth and right to life as your own 'dotheads'. So please stop calling them dotheads and start referring to them as 'people', or 'poor people' as you have with the people from your own country.

I see his stuff and I think who in their right mind would want any of this?
You are going to have the materialistic mega rich who after buying this stuff are gonna confirm the fact that they are just out there to pump their lives full of materialistic crap pefore they die. May be priding them selves on how sophisticated and character filled they are by the amount of technological crap hey own.
This is a gross generalisation and I know that it is going to come back full circle one day but $1400NZD for a remote?
isnt their some otherway to spend your money on a more worthy cause???
FYI:
an easy way of developing games on linux is to use the blender that is perhaps the best road to travel for people who just want to design a game and not get overwhelmed by the complexities of the game engine
this is good news since blender 2.33 is going to be released soon that has the 2.25 game engine enabled allowing (almost) anybody to create a game (the quality of it will be dependant on the creator though).
i know that liquids and semiconductors dont match but what i think that would be really cool would be to have the front of the tower to swing open to reveal a small fridge, just big enough for can of beer/wine/fanta.
the thing is that it has to bore under the ice to get to the water, now any water that will melted will just vaporise into water vapor in the airlessness of space and drift away meaning that there will be no "ice seal" to protect the probe from being shot out when it breaks out into the ocean.

is anybody wonderin what would happen if a probe was to bore kilometers below the ice and then crack through into a highr pressure ocean (ie 0Pa on one side and mega Pa on the other side)?
what is stopping all of that water firing the probe out of its hole at some massive velocity (anybody for a game of golf)...
my mothers computer had a faulty motherboard that used to wipe everything on the hardrive every 3-6 months.
this almost garenteed a low average of spyware and virilli running on her computer however then I gave her my computer running Fedora Core 1 and she has been OK ever since, however i do fear for her:
instead of being afraid of spyware, etc... now it's bash, cp, ls, networking, X11, etc...
the problem with the beginning of genesis is that it is written in hebrew poetry and not as a scientific report.
if you wanted to get an accurate interperation of genesis I suggest that you (plural) take a foundation year bible studies class where they get at the hebrew, themes, images, etc... and not from a faith perspective.
when you do this you (plural) pick up on themes that were invisible when you (plural) were reading it as a scientific report.
I was at my pastors house last week and the topic of conversation some how managed to turn over to linux and open source vs. windows and closed source.
basically the argument for closed source was that nobody could read through the code and exloit weaknesses or add trojans without anybody knowing and once linux becomes more mainstream the same virus woes will be the same for both platforms.
I waas going to remind him that linux users are stastictally (spelling???) more security concious (how many linux/unix users spend the bulk of there productivity time running as root?) than windows users but i didnt want to bring it up because he was the leader of our church.
And also more work is put into the linux kernels than in the NT5-5.1 kernels when it comes to the weaknesses that viruses rely on.
I was then going to remind him of OpenBSD, an open source OS that has had only 1 hole in the default install in the last seven years.
maybe next time when i get enough courage I will enlighten him some more.
it just makes you wonder what there is to research when academic instutions are paid millions to take pictures of things at micro-miniscule dimensions.

Yeah, Yeah, my grandmother's camera has that stuff, but what about the kitchen sink?
I conceed that what you have said about the early adopters is right, an oversight on my behalf.

how thick is the manual -2 maybe 3 feet?
i'll just put it next to the 1:1 scale model of the deathstar which is just to the right of my holden
it shouldnt take more than 15min
and that is to change the GPL, after all it isnt exactly the alpha and the omega or anything.
