I have a D-Link DI-524 that let me do this. I use the 172.16 space for my wired house network and the 192.168.0 for the wireless portion and it works fine. I don't use DHCP on my wired network, so it's assigned a static address. It was pretty easy to do, really. Took about 15 minutes, and it's the first and only time I've mucked with wireless.
I only bought it a week ago, and it seems to work fine, but I can't speak to its longevity as a solution. It comes with an antenna that's really fragile and that's my only complaint with it so far.
Searle's Chinese Room is just a restatement of solipsistic metaphysics because all I have to say is everyone else in the world is a Searle's Chinese Room on legs. I have no way of proving to myself beyond a shadow of a doubt that everything else besides myself exists, so how can I even be sure anyone else has understanding when I communicate with them? There's nothing mystical conferred on the Chinese Room when I wrap it in a meat sack. Once at this point, you're pretty much free to question the existence of anything outside of yourself.
Searle has an answer for "the system is intelligent" argument you've made. I've forgotten the details of it, but I remember finding it not very satisfying, which is likely why I've forgotten it.:-)
The Amish have both a healthy respect and a healthy skepticism of technology. Apparently, they evaluate new tech and ask "will this technology, on balance, keep our families and community together, or split them apart?". That's why cellphones are genrerally okay, but they don't have TV.
I don't know about the rest of you, but I think it sounds like they've got their priorities pretty straight.
THat's PrEposterous. You'RE ON drugs or someThing, nO? yoU Seem (I'm sure yoU're a nice guy in real life so don't conStruE this as an attack) to thinK that just because someone Foobars and posts a message to the wrong thread that there's somethIng nefarious going on. how VEry silly.
That's a small resume'. If you think that's a life story resume', then you apparently have never seen the resume' of a mid-level or senior developer. I've been a professional software engineer for 15 years, still only keep the last 10 on it, and it's four times that size. I suppose you'd think mine really sucks, but since I get interviews for about 9 of 10 places I send my resume', and I've been unemployed for a grand total of 10 weeks out of 15 years, your opinion would be, to be as blunt as you were, dead wrong.
Your resume has one purpose and one purpose only: Get an interview. If this guy is getting interviews, but not the jobs, it's not the resume'.
A person who can design any sort of CPU likely doesn't give a flying fuck about a Java programming gig. However, you actually manage to stumble over a truth. It does pay to customize your resume' for the position you're applying for.
These guys look like all they're providing is stuff like GIMP and Open Office. Unless the disks have the source on them, I somehow doubt that they're exactly complying with the GPL.
Got to love their mailing address. A PMB at a P.O. Box.
First, If you call all us US folks "yanks" that's okay... but there are huge swaths of folks in this country (mostly in the southeast) that calling them a "yankee" will get you in a whole heap of trouble. Word to the wise if you ever visit.;-)
Secondly, checks are really on their way out here, too. I draw exactly two checks a month. One's the electric company and I do that on the web, so does that even count? The other is my water company, which is a tiny little mom and pop operation with about 700 customers. I actually have to mail that! Luddites.
You can almost directly correlate my good credit rating with electronic payment options and the ubiquity of the internet for managing finances. I just had to wait for these chuckleheads to wake up and deploy things that think the way I think.
No, you're both right. The OpenVMS kernel was written in VAX Assembler, but components of OpenVMS were written in a variety of languages. Like someone we all know and [love|hate] likes to say about what is popularly called Linux, OpenVMS is much more than just a kernel.
Okay, first recognize that I'm not an expert at interpreting these images. Like most folks on/., I'm just a regular bit-basher who happens to be lucky enough to bash bits for people who study Mars. Doing that for three and a half years one can't help but learn a few things, but I am far from an authority. So, there's my caveat.
First, here's the main page for this image. The picture was taken mid-spring. Solar Longitude, or Ls tells us this. 0 degrees corresponds with vernal equinox (spring) in the northen hemisphere, and then each season is 90 degrees in length. This image is from the southern hemisphere (82 degrees south). It's also not terrbly well lit, as the incidence angle is 79 degrees. My semi-educated guess is we're looking at years of CO2 deposits trapping dust, sublimating, and then releasing dust in layers. In the north, dust has been blown across exposed rock to the north as the CO2 turns to gas and pushes north.
The Martian polar regions behave very differently than do the polar regions of Earth, since much of the polar caps are CO2. It goes right from solid to gas, so there is no flow, and impurities drop right where they were trapped, and don't move except for aeolian processes. We continue to study these polar processes in-depth as we have targetting campaigns to image the entire polar region during the spring and summer to observe these phenomena. The amount of change the poles go through every year is nothing short of amazing.
Also, do yourself a favor and always look at lossless images. JPEGs are really only useful for gross classification or mnemonics to find what you're looking for. Especially if you zoom in, the artifacting process in JPEG compression makes things appear that aren't there.
And yes, I do agree that the whole planet needs further exploration. Mars is an amazing place, and even if there is no biological life on it, it's still a living planet that is so amazingly similar to the Earth, and yet so alien, we will learn much about the universe and ourselves with continued study.
The first image on this site is actually a dune field just starting to emerge from sublimating carbon dioxide as the southern Mars hemisphere emerges from winter (Ls ~= 187 degrees). No way is there liquid water on Mars at 60 south latitude in the early spring, especially at pressures of.01 atmosphere.
I didn't look at everything he had, but after a couple samples, it was hard to take very seriously. Yeah, it's "wow" but not "it's alive wow".
Slashdot Mirror
Oh, shit. You did not open this door.
Wait, it's slashdot. Of course you did. While we're at it, let's discuss vi vs. emacs, abortion, gun control, and Windows vs. Mac, too.

when is the last time you ever used calculus?
Um, last week? But then, I also recognize that it's not the norm.

You've just posted the trade secrets of the recording industry. Prepare to be sued into oblivion!
I own three of them.
If you need bus fare, give me a call.
Just sayin'
But they're actually going to fuck up V for Vendetta first before they go fuck up the Watchmen.
Yeah, I see that now. That much marketroid-speak did exactly what it is supposed to do and my neurotransmitter reserves fell towards zero. ;-)
But wait! There's more!

So when you write your books, do you give the guys working the printing press your advance and royalty checks?
They would like their Labor Theory of Value back.
I'll be in my bunk...
Can an article written about the antics of a computer software CEO garner a post of Led Zeppelin lyrics.
And then have that post marked "Informative". :-)
Do you really think that somebody with a UID in the three digit range needs to karma whore?
Do you hear that ringing sound? It's the clue phone. Pick it up.
until they anchor it three miles off the coast to tell them the US claims territorial waters twelve nautical miles off the coast?

While you're right that Hubble wouldn't be too useful for tracking this asteroid, Hubble is perfectly good for looking at things in our solar system.
