Passive 'jamming' is not illegal. Active jamming is. The difference is that you're flooding the airwaves with white noise in a spectrum.
Most movie theaters aren't rezoned as anything else. I know that some adult only theaters have become popular (They serve dinner and alcohol and make it 21+) among DINKs because they don't have to deal with anyone's kids. Next one they plan on building, just toss in a Faraday Cage and call it good.
99% of the population would have no idea where to set up a Subversion or Mercurial. Even in engineering this would have saved us a ton of time. My girlfriend (med student) often has to write reports with a partner. This would allow her to be on the computer anywhere and on AIM or even in the same room and start knocking out the same report instantly.
This is how 'merging' usually goes. Everyone works on their Word / Powerpoint presentation separately. Then you set up a group meeting and merge it together in a computer lab.

I would have gotten hooked Linux if it wasn't for OS X. Terminal.app sitting in the Utilities folder is like a drug pusher. First it starts out with a little 'ls' and 'mv'. Then you learn to SSH and X11 forward. Then come the shell scripts and built in gcc.
Oh god, and then you discover screen and it's all over. You're hooked.
I'm now a CLI junkie. I get my fix from my debian rtorrent machine that gives me my movies and now I'm building a home automation center from NSLU2 and 1-Wire. My MacBook Pro starts Terminal.app on start.
Parents keep your kids away from Apple, they could be come CLI Junkies. Vista is the one true path to salvation.
If 1 wind turbine can output 1MW. Increasing that to 2MW would be 100% more output. It can still only be 10% efficient, but the output has doubled. 50% more efficient would be 1.5MW. Heck it could be possible to get up to 1000% more efficient (10MW), and still be at under 50% efficiency.
Because white males aren't the minority. Everything is setup into making the minorities 'equal' to us, even if they swing past. How many white guys did you see in the 100 meter dash at the Olympics? What is the demographic of white NFL/NBA players?
What about teaching, home ec, 'stay at home dads', etc.
Wrong. My laptop is my main and only computer at work. I work for a company that has 100k+ employees. The only people that get desktops these days are the ProE guys. I spend 95% of my life in Matlab and compiling XPC programs. I can grab it and go to a meeting where I can compile and program in meetings. I can also give presentations and such.
I currently have an M90. Most people that give me a hard time about the weight have kids, so I ask them how heavy their kids are at birth and how often they carried them around.
Install via SSH has to be the best part about the debian installer. I get it to the point where SSH is enabled then go watch TV with my laptop and let the installer finish.
We have some LCDs in our test cells with burn in. LCDs aren't immune either. And these aren't some no name brands, these are Dell, relatively new LCDs. Now sometimes the data on the screen doesn't change for a few days, but that's no excuse for burn in.
Which is quite a bit different than us buying everything from China and restamping it over here. For some things (Cat Machines for example) it's cheaper to make it where it's going to be used.
And as far as "Big Chinese Manufactures" I meant like Shandong SEM. Now if everything in the US has a "Shandong SEM" and was repainted yellow and put out to use then the post I was replying to might have a bit of a point.
he grid is aging, but since the ultimate authority to direct replacement lies with both federal, state, and multi-state agencies, who precisely in your little world bears the fiscal burden?
The same people that would for the $700b bailout. I didn't say I *wanted* to pay for it. I just said I thought it would be a better option than throwing money at AIG.
And building a new damn probably requires the input from dozens of state, local and federal regulators and bodies, but somehow the Hoover Dam got built.
100% Absolute Bull Shit. Name 1 manufacturer that does this.
I work for Caterpillar. (You know, Construction Equipment). I've been on the factory tours. I've SEEN a Bulldozer come together from front to end. I can't speak for every component and I'm sure that some parts come from China or elsewhere. But a chunk of the product is made right here built by American Workers. I've seen the robots cutting the plate steel out and people welding it together
Bulldozers/Pipe Layers (Track Type Tractors) are built in East Peoria, IL. Large Mining Trucks, Motor Graders are built in Decatur, IL. Hydraulic Excavators and Large Wheel Loaders are built in Aurora, IL. Skid steers, Backhoes are in South Carolina. (At will factory). Engines are built in Lafayette, IN, Mossville, IL and Greenville, SC. (Only Mossville is Union). Paving equipment is in MN. Underground mining equipment is in Australia.
And there are factories all around the world, Belguim, France, England, India, etc. (Ever figure the shipping on a multi-ton vehicle)
John Deere is in Moline, IA.
Go on a road trip sometime. Name a Chinese Manufacturer. Kumatsu and Mitsubishi and Japanese. JCB is British, Samsung is Korean. There are no (yet) big manufactures in China.
Construction equipment is a tool. And just like with hand tools you can go to Harbor Freight or you can go to Snap-On. For some people Harbor Freight is fine. But if you run something 24/7, 365 and every hour costs you thousands of downtime. You don't go cheap.
I know this is slashdot, but try not to talk out of your ass so much.
The 700 billion would have been better spent setting up a Depression Era work force. After the bridge collapse in MN we've been hearing report after report about how the current infrastructure is falling apart around us. The electrical grid is rigged together worse than some college students' cars.
Suspend unemployment. (Anyone willing and able to work but cannot find a job). Start putting everyone to work doing something. Bus them to and from a work site up to X miles from your home.[0] Every major bridge that isn't going to make it gets the full 24/7 treatment. When one bridge is done. You move onto the next one. Everything trickles down. Every one of those workers is going to need food, haircuts, a trailer to live in (while at work). Trucking industry would pick back up doing loads of construction supplies. Domestic construction equipment manufacturers would need to up production Only other domestic MADE, no other equipment (Cat, Deere, etc). Build the roads to European standards (Autobahn and such). Give the electric companies 2 choices: Fix your own damn shit with your profits or we fix it and lease it back to you or nationalize you.
Sure there are people that are going to bitch because they're used to their handout. But handouts aren't going to help anyone. Make everyone work.
It's not perfect but it's a hell of a lot better than handing it over to a bunch of people who managed to already lose $700b.
[0].M-F you live in work housing or you work 4 - 10s or 7 on 7 off.
The best is to do a community college in a town with a 'real' college. Move into the same apartment complexes as the other students. Go to the same bars. You'll still get the same college "experience" but won't have the debt to show for it.
It's almost the problem as with eBay. When people search for Purdue Rugby, I want for them to be able to find our videos. People search for Videos on YouTube.
I currently have most of the videos in 'high quality' on our website with JW FLV player. More locations = more eyes.
Plus as with most things, if someone can't get something working on my site. They think it's my fault. If someone can't get something working on YouTube(Google, EBay, Facebook, etc) they think it's their fault.
These are Rugby games. Most Rugby players think the internet is www and only usable for Porn only. I have a hard enough time showing Alumni (1970-2008) how to use a list-serv and College kids (yes, College kids) how to use a web forum.
Asking them to download codecs, torrent program, download a file which is NOT the movie (torrent file), wait X amount of time for the movie to download, then play it? Not. Going. To. Happen.
Unless it's embeddable on a website and nearly idiot proof, it's not going to get seen.

What about when I need an Expert Sex Change?
It's the boyfriend that strangled her to death and hung her in her room making it look like the fault of the woman that was harassing her.
Or am I the only one that watches Law and Order.

In an open letter to Internet service providers published earlier this week, billionaire entrepreneur Mark Cuban calls for telecoms to put an end to peer-to-peer (P2P) file-sharing. Cuban expresses concerns that P2P "freeloaders" are clogging the tubes with commercial content. His letter doesn't focus on piracy, however, and instead primarily attacks companies that use P2P for legitimate commercial applications.

I think Palin hit closer to home for most voters. I'm sure most people don't know what the Bush Doctrine, read a paper, or could name a supreme court decision they agreed with, or have any clue about international relations.
Obama just managed to be smarter than the average voter without sounding condescending.
