  8. diplomatic token. on A Brief History of the Space Station · · Score: 4, Insightful
    As the article says:

    For instance, orbital changes to accommodate Russia after the cold war made it harder to use the station as a launching pad.

    Originally the ISS was going to serve as the garage for exploration of the solar system. But, political reasons for collaborating with the russians ("let's be friends to show everyone that the cold war is over") forced to change the orbit four out of the sola system plane to let the russians, from their higher latitude launch pads, reach it and help a bit. The ISS became from one of the greatest scientific endevours to one of the most expensive diplomatic tokens ever.

    Actually, all you have to do is send your date of birth, SS#, bank account numbers, and credit card numbers to nojunk@scammer.ru and once they use that information to verify you really are who you say you are they will take you off of every maillist in the whole world, guaranteed!

    I tried that, and it only changed the spam mail from Credit Card Offers to Billing Companies Mail. I'm not sure if your suggestion really works...
    Oh well, maybe I will be able to get this issue resolved after I complete the deal with this nigerian prince who contacted me the other day...

    Since according to that graph wikipedia's traffic is comparable to /., maybe they should counter-attack Slashdot. You know, /. links them in the front page, trying to slashdot them... next week, Wiki links /. trying to wikipedia them. Maybe after they get those new servers inline.

    One note to anyone from Wikipedia reading this post. Please, do not try this on a day with SCO news, ok? Thanks!

    You can change EU for US in the following quotes if you feel it suits you better:

    EU: Why make trillions when we could make...Billions?

    EU: No, because Bill Gates has "mojo". It's what the French call a certain 'I don't know what.'

    EU: Begin the unnecessarily slow-moving litigation mechanism!

    EU: As you know, every diabolical scheme I've hatched has been thwarted by Bill Gates. And why is that, ladies and gentlemen?

    In science a lot of times you do things just because you can. Maybe to check again your theory, hey, it might be wrong after all. So, this is a boundary, everyone thinks they know how it would be, but someone has to go there and make sure. It is just for the sense of discovery

    Neo: What is the Matrix?
    Trinity: The answer is out there, Neo, just RTFA!

    Goatse: French is the best language to swear in. [stream of curses] It's like wiping your ass with silk.

    The Homeland Security: I am the Architect. I created the Matrix. I have been waiting for you. You have many questions and although the process has altered your consciousness you remain irrevocably human, ergo some of my answers you will understand and some of them you will not. Concordantly, while your first question maybe the most pertinent you may or may not realize it is also the most irrelevant.

  17. Re:Radiation hardness on What's Inside the Mars Rovers · · Score: 1

    I'm currently working designing an experiment that is going to be run remotely in a hazardous enviroment. The experiment's DAQ demands that we have something fast enought, in the order of a microsecond. We were considering using some PowerPC or 68k board running VxWorks (industry standard) for this work, and use the TCP/IP to communicate through a sat-phone. After reading your post, I'm willing to reconsider other approaches (we are still at a very early stage). Any suggestions, links or more info?

  19. driving the rover on What's Inside the Mars Rovers · · Score: 1, Offtopic

    The question that we all want to know is, how do they drive it? I imagine that they have 3 identical car cockpits, with steering wheel, brakes and gas pedal. 3 different engineers drive it, voting on their actions for redundancy. If one of them dies, or goes to the bathroom, or simply starts honking like a mad man, still the other 2 could respond.
