I find the lack of real "sleep" for these devices saves on the energy required to heat my home... as there's always a trickle input from the TV, Computer, wallwarts for cordless phones etc... Them wallwarts get quite warm as well... all in all, this means I need to buy less wood and coal for my nice open fire...
"It creates 250 possible domains each day," it added. "We've registered some selected domains out of this pool and are monitoring the connections being made to them."
Why is it able to register domains automatically? This is where we should be working to block the verdamt thing... stopping the automatic registration of domains... make it take time and require money to actually create the domain...
safety related like "it's icy today, please drive carefully", and notifications of recalls and messages alerting you to traffic conditions. And maybe the odd advert for a local garage to carry out a service when it's due.
I've got an orgone accumulator
It makes me feel greater
I'll see you sometime later
When I'm through with my accumulator
It's no social integrator
It's a one man isolator
It's a back brain stimulator
It's a cerebral vibrator
Those energy stimulators
Just turn your eyeballs into craters
But an orgone accumulator
Is a superman creator
It's no social integrator
It's a one man isolator
It's a back brain stimulator
It's a cerebral vibrator
I've got an orgone accumulator
And it makes me feel greater
I'll see you sometime later
When I'm through with my accumulator.
Just crack open the throttle on that Silver Machine... I'm standing on the runway waiting for takeoff...
The only way the keyboard is going away is with voice recognition that doesn't suck. It's been a decade since they started down that path... I don't foresee it anytime soon.
we could have had that by now if Microsoft hadn't effectively killed it off. They licensed L&H's technology, incorporated it into Office and then sat on it... never bothered to actually develop it any further...
Actually the debris field was a total of approximately 1000 square miles. The total search area was several times this size, as they had to be sure that they covered it all.
That was an absolute bummer of a job... I spent several days walking the fields around Lockerbie as a member of a search party looking for remains and marking the positions for the recovery teams... I still have nightmares about some of the scenes we found... a row of seats with all the occupants still in it, rooks and other carrion birds pecking the eyes out of bodies...
The transponder only reports the aircraft pressure altitude and the 4 digit Octal "squawk code" assigned by air tragic... the position of the transponder is calculated by the SSR based upon the time difference between the interrogation pulse and the response and the angle at which the radar was pointing.
The primary advantage "secondary" RADAR gives is an active response which removes the need for the operator to have to pick out the skin paint response from the clutter and other crud on the raw display...
Also, if the aircraft wants to declare an emergency but can't transmit using radio, they set the squawk code to 7777 (or set the transponder into emergency mode which has the same effect) which gets flagged up on the SSR display.
THere are two adverts... one with browsing which got banned, the other with the app store which has the disclaimers and hasn't been banned yet... I think Apple are hoping the "disclaimers" are enough to avoid a ban
apparently, in Microsoft's eyes, "capable" merely means being able to boot to a minimum gui... whether you could actually run software on top of it without it being a painful disc/memory swapfest is bye the bye... it managed to boot up the minimum gui, therefore it must have been "Vista Capable"...
meh... come back and wake me up when it gets to 300 light years...
on a secondary note, I wonder if the solar system has passed through several "clouds" of this stuff during its lifetime? Could explain major die-offs on Earth...
ADOBE MAX 2008, SAN FRANCISCO -- Nov. 17, 2008 -- MLB.com, the official website of Major League Baseball, and Adobe Systems Incorporated (Nasdaq:ADBE) today announced a two-year agreement in which MLB.com has selected the Adobe® Flash® Platform to deliver all of its live and on-demand video offerings beginning in 2009. In addition, MLB.com will provide a downloadable rich Internet application (RIA) built using Adobe AIR(TM), so baseball fans can access additional features outside the Web browser.
is that a lot of tech companies will go belly up shortly and their patents will be up for auction in fire sales... My problem with patents is that they are treated like property and can be bought and sold... Things would be a lot easier if the patent died when the company/person that took it out went bust/died or were non-transferable when companies got bought out...
I was wondering why so many sites had gone all arty and had sets up in black and white... as it's grey scale, then it can't be tripping flesh tone filters...
"We're glad to know that with the real computation work, the engineers here turn to PCs. All of the other exhibits in the Academy are actually run on Mac Minis "
so what's wrong with a Mac Mini? are they incapable of doing real computation work?
when are you lot gonna do something about this crap??? It's about time you all got uppity and refused to travel... a few days without revenue should soon get the airlines banging on congress's door to get the TSA reigned in...

they want to educate the public, but don't want to be seen losing in court...
I'm confused... surely once installed they become part of the fixtures and fittings and can't be removed by the previous owner?
hey, it might not be icy where you are when starting the journey... like it wasn't this morning for me, but 2 miles down the road it was...

I clicked on an ad once and bought something...
Alt-F4 was picked deliberately to fsck over Wordperfect users... (Alt-F4 was a keyboard shortcut used to select a block of text...)

and anything else you want... just set up a distributed git repository for it...

as I don't run windows... just tell me how much faster 3.1 will be against 3.0 or Konqueror, or Opera on Linux...
