While I doubt mariners will ever stop being taught compass and celestial navigation (tradition is important), I can't imagine either will be needed 100 years from now, much less a thousand."
This may be true, but our ships compasses won't stop working nor pointing to true north either! First answer this, do ships still use magnetic compasses? answer NO!
Ships are made of steel and other metals, thus causing deviation on a magnetic compass so we use gyro compasses http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gyro_compass
Also for you GPS folks a GPS compass that uses the phase angles of the signals to determine true north
go look for a Furuno SC-60 or similar.
Try http://www.hashcash.org/ It's a way of making a postage stamp for e-mail, allowing safe passage through spam filters.
You could ask your business partners to use this to get their mail through quicker.
From reading the website, I saw that these chips use EEPROM meaning that they can also be reprogrammed. so as a store card carrying member, the register will probably program the chip with your customer number and the date bought.
On a side note say in your visa card we could each implement a PGP or a GPG key woulden't you like encripted receipts emailed to your home?
first off lets all setup P2P servers of totaly free content. i am sure that we could help sourceforge by setting up a p2p mirroring system. with this my on campus data trasfers would be great and I could have all the free data I want
This idea was congered up amongst my friends at school.
well there is the 5 mile link but and say 200 customers
well set up a network
to use the service tou get 2 or 3 antennas at your house. now you have a second distubbition point and a larger network.
think of the posabilities:-P
I agree that the gentoo users are great friendly people. i am a devloper for Lunar Linux and i am starting to port Lunar to ppc i was looking for help on getting a kernel to compile on the new G4s. The irc channel is frendly and helpful.
As for something wrong for distros that dont play DVDs properly there are too many hardware configurations for a pre-complied system to account for.
in time i imagine gentoo will be more user friendly but as a devloper of Lunar i know it is difficult do make userfriendly for everyone:-P
i may feel a chroot is user friendly:-P

I don't know about you guys but I don't want Neo's jack in my neck i much rather have Johnny's a bit less intrusive.
On the side note I hope that research on repairing the brain continues as cancer and other trumatic illnesses good work guys!!
