if the cosmological constant was one, you would not be able to walk around the block, the universe would expand beyond your ability to get back ever.
Maybe you mena zero.
try sciam.com and find the cosmological constant article

His argument is more like the universe(s) in which life as we know it can evolve (chemical based) can only have the 17 parameters in a certain range.

you missed it alright
take two primordial lumps of matter before inflation.
each one then gets inflated.
one is our universe the other is another "universe" - it is too far away in time and space for us to ever be able to communicate with it so it is a separate universe - have anopthe rlook it is there
Expensive to restart the series now
"...
The sets are gone now, having been turned into firewood for the failed Fox program "Firefighters."

The other commenters obviously live in a country with a half decent
In Australia - not only is cable TV way overpriced (and broadband charges seriously suck even before you put in installation and new modem cost), we simply do not get decent sci-fi.
How many seasons of Farscape have been made? Most of the episodes were shown I think but some episodes were missed (dropped for sport) and never reappeared. And it was made less 100km from where I am sitting.
Voyager is still in season 6!!
Cable TV is seriously screwed. But the gov and regulators look about to stuff up the commercial fix being proposed.
What about Space-Above and Beyond (simple storyline but done semi-well even if a bit corny)?
Not only do the programmers (TV schedules - not the nice people who write code) - have seriously lousy taste, they do not seem to manage to get it - put the show on same time each week.
Thankfully we have 3 hr video tapes - show can start anywhere between 30min and an hour late, then run for 1hr10min with the ads. Also 11pm Tuesday or Thursday is not what I would call an audience friendly time.
The fastest way to get faster computers would be to get better software.
When Moore's law finally flat lines silicon's speed growth, the first thing (hopefully someone is on it right now) to do will be to rewrite all the software. OpenOffice 50Mb download for Win - MS office is how many times larger? My 500k budget spreadsheet in Excel became 147k under OO.
Just to annoy you all, a low power one use logic circuit would be ideal for the music heavies to embed on a CD/DVD to lock down which machine it can be played on.
Assuming all material is usable as builing material
if not reduce the length of the constructed habitat
ok - not a big palace but would you rather live ina dirty smelly city?
Est radius 100 m
Volume 4,188,790 m3
Habitat length 370
Habitat Radius 100
wall thickness 10
volume of material 4,188,790
checksum - should be zero
rotation rate to get 1 g 3,141.59 rev/sec = 52.36 rpm
(pi*(r^2))/t = 10 ms^(-2) t = 1/(10/(pi*(r^2)))
=2*pi*r*l habitable area 232,711 m2
