So it seems logical to me that if this could happen once, it could happen again, and therefore it could have happened in the past. Maybe this is how Bigfoot came to be...just an extremely rare set of coincidences.
I would imagine the restrictions would be similar to typical cable and DSL offerings. Otherwise it would start to cut into their higher-priced business offerings. Also, wouldn't allowing everyone to run their own server eventually start to chip away at backbone capacity (which, admittedly, I have little sense of)?
Isn't it interesting that the editors modified the title of the Red Hat vs. The Ambulence Chasers story to remove the slur, but don't seem interested in correcting the mistake you mention (denied versus undecided), which completely changes this story's meaning.
(appologies to the guy i modded up in this story, now that the point will be revoked)
There are also directional patterns that aren't so easy, like one of my sites, WRNI in Rhode Island, which has 4 towers, set in a sort of Y shape. 3 are used during the day for one pattern, and one of them turns off and a different one turns on a night for a different pattern.
neat! where are those located anyway? now that i have a working car radio, i listen to WRNI often. i've been curious for a while as to where the broadcast originates...
yeah, my thoughts exactly. if it were me reviewing the submission, the fact that it was anonymous, coupled with the links pointing to an IP address instead of a hostname, would have made me suspicous. hope you don't get a call from your ISP.
Storage would be a mofo, although you might be able to sell it into the grid in your area.
funny you should mention that...i was just reading up on a regional program we have access to here that lets you receive power from renewable sources for a small rate increase. one site i was reading also discusses incentives for installing your own solar or wind equipment:
"The way you can sell your electricity to the local utility is through a process known as net metering, where the meter runs in one direction when you are taking electricity from your utility's wires and then runs in the other direction when you are providing extra electricity to the utility. Your local utility must offer net metering as long as your system generates 25 kilowatts (KW) or less, if you are a Narragansett Electric customer, and as long as all of the net-metering capacity within the utility's service area totals no more than 1 megawatt (MW)." http://www.green-e.org/RI/RI-producingyourown.htm
neat. too bad the equipment is several thousand dollars...maybe 10 years from now.:)
Here's another fun thing you can do: drop your "burnt" chalk in a glass half-full of water, let it bubble, and put your finger in it. Let me know how it feels.
aw, at least explain for those of us who lack the chemistry knowledge and the stock of burnt chalk what will happen...
actually, linux, before it even had a name, was a terminal emulator. read the book. it discusses the origins of linux...i don't recall, and can't find, anything saying he copied any bit of code. only things like "...because the Minix file system was well-documented...I made my file system compatible with the Minix file system." (p78)
This is for something completely different and will have made no difference.
I didn't say it was a fix-all. The user in question was experiencing the aforementioned problem with MS Word starting up very slowly, and peforming these steps has fixed the problem.
I have walked a user through performing the following procedure, and she has reported success with her two machines. She is running Windows 2000 Pro with Office 2000 and NAV 2003 (only 99% sure about the last one).
- goto http://windowsupdate.microsoft.com/ - click Scan for Updates link (may be prompted to accept the ActiveX thing) - Navigate to the page of non-critical updates (ironic, no?) - Find the update named something like "Root Certificate Update" or "Root Certificate Authority" (can't remember which) - Install it - rejoice at the ability to use MS Word again:P
heh i have that game. i was a bit too young to appreciate it when i first received it, though, so it didn't get much play time (plus i never could figure out the whole thing with the satellite). i found the various olympic-themed games were most addictive back then...

I hope you're right...
You must be new here...
actually, the number is spelled Googol, and there has been some disagreement over Google's use of it.
So it seems logical to me that if this could happen once, it could happen again, and therefore it could have happened in the past. Maybe this is how Bigfoot came to be...just an extremely rare set of coincidences.
Just a thought...
they're also suing Novell, and are being sued by RedHat.

argh...
s/where/we're
that's what i get for not using Preview.
well, yes, but where in Daylight Savings right now...so GMT-4

"Kill zcat," sed ed.
"Awk!" sed perl.
"Make sum nice tee, joe," sed man.
Sure, it's easily hackable on Windows. First, download the latest kernel source.....er, wait a minute...
yeah...those RFC's are from 1994, and the article does say "After ten years of research and development..."
what's to stop that same person from going into a public library and using a public access terminal?

luckily, IIRC, those are the least painful, since the nerves are gone as well.

true, but one was in an older-than-current version. not to say it shouldn't be noted, of course...
"Anyways, most people now use LCD's (and if they don't they should)."
Yes, they should...that way the prices will drop faster, and then I will be able to afford one that's both large and good for gaming.
