87.09 kg * 2735.28 m/s = 238,212.92 Kg-m/s! But what we really want to know is the KE: 651,586,189.12 joules or about 0.155 ton of TNT
and its clear this guy was in deep with the rest
of the them. And it really makes you wonder
what was going on when somebody who files adjusted
gross income of 357,668 in 2000 and 184,873 in
2001 is associating with this bunch. And its just
as striking that before leaving he signed everything
over to his wife, who then tossed 5,000 in a bank
account for him. Why? Sounds to me like he was
worried about becoming the source of funding for
this band of thugs. Probably thanked his lucky
stars when they couln't get to Afghanistan.
well.. for what its worth I picked up a pair of
the new 20" formacs last december. My process
was:
a) how much screen space do I need
b) what physical monitor dimensions work
(b more or less ruled out traditional CRTs, but
even so I researched a few)
c) what characteristics do I need it to have
d) waht are non-traditional reviews saying (IE
not PC mag or their ilk).
So for me, I needed a lot of screen space, a
smaller foot print as I'm already too close to
the screens. That pushed me towards LCD. My
needs are divergent - much time spent with generic text based stuff, but also a need for
accurate color for photography stuff as well as
speedy refresh for games (no ghosting!). I
found CAD industry reviews helpful. Ended up
with the formacs as they use a new technology
that results in faster pixel refresh, and they
are excellent at producing accurate color. Toss
in the 2 dead pixel guaranty and it fit my needs.
I get my share of spam too.. but I really have to
question getting several MB of spam a day. The only spam I get larger than a normal 2k message are
people trying to pass virus files. What
have you done to get yourself so adored by spammers? I have two email addresses that get
95% of my email - one since 1990 and the other from
1994 and do a fair amount of purchasing
and usenet posting (the past few years with my
email blocked - but its certainly in the archives), but I dont think I've ever had more
than 100k in a day. I wonder what others on
here feel is a typical amount of spam?
at leaast on my system. Screen corruption, scrollbar vanishes, crashes. Not that these things arent unexpected, but most alphas I've used
have been fairly stable. Could this have anything to do with the brand new nvidia drivers?
over the long run yeah its cheaper. When I
got my 1GB microdrive in fall of 01 it was about
$300, and flash cards run around $100 or so
for reasonable storage. I suppose thats about
10-30 rolls of film before its 'free'.
No thats not correct. If I run some form of
business on the net and for whatever reason
it gets/.'d, then my *legitimate* clients will
likely be denied access to my business, where as
those involved in the/. effect have no likely
interest in buying from me. The analogy of a
restaurant is wrong, it is more like running
a restaurant and suddenly having a WTC protest
outside your door looking thru the windows and
pounding to get in. Your real customers will
not be able to come in.
Its similar to an
unsolicited advertisment, which I believe their
are laws against. Would IBM be happy if you
took out an ad in the paper for something they sold? I really doubt it, even if it was a
positive ad, unless they gave you prior authorization.
i wonder if we will ever see a point in time
where an unauthorized linkage results in a legal
claim of damages, say for increased bandwidth
costs to the link host? Or possibly denial of
service? I suppose it all revolves around what
one would say is a reasonable expectation of
public use of a site, and could be dramatically
different for say cnn vs joeblow.org
I needed cleartype for my new LCD's so went and
upgraded a very stable (for microsloth) win2k to
a not so stable XP. And I've already turned off
just about every bit of eye candy. Unfortunately
the field I work in has no linux/bsd software
base, so I'm stuck. For now..
and probably the most so of the vast universe of
linux distros. Does this make it better? Thats
for you to decide, but to me consistency and building upon what was already a good foundation
seems like a good thing.
A 90 minute video capture at 720x480 took me about
75 GB. Sadly I had another 90 mins to do, but
only had 15 GB free space left. Yes its quite
possible to suck up large amounts of disk space
with video, and lossless compression only helps
a little bit.
was some of the best idle time in college! Now
if we could only get back Honeymooners/TwilightZone/StarTrek we'd be set
so now I can use my dead lap top screen?

hey moderator.. help me understand how its off topic? Havent heard of cell phone users getting
spammed? Now we can have a spam autodialer/
portscanner for all the phones and inet connections. How does this make my life any
better? Is it that complex to remember a phone
number and an internet username? This IMHO
has *nothing* to do wiht making things better
for the consumer and everything to do with
business selling direct to you.
" The Department of Commerce said it will support an electronic-numbering system, known as ENUM, which would allow consumers to specify a single identifier for their telephone numbers, e-mail and Instant Messaging (news - web sites) addresses, fax numbers, and mobile phone numbers.
In a letter to the State Department, Assistant Secretary of Commerce Nancy Victory said the U.S. should endorse the effort but work to ensure that users' privacy and security will be protected and innovation and competition would be encouraged.

State programs have not been cut. Take a look
at the budget and all this whining about a potential
3% deficit. There has been no shortage of spending
on either the federal OR state level. The shortage
is on the revenue side. And before you whine about
'tax breaks for the rich' - 1) the majority of the
cuts take place after 2005 and hence are not part
of current shortfalls and 2) they only amount to
about 1/3 of the shortfall.
The States and local municipalities are guilty of
even worse pie in the sky revenue and economic
prediction than the feds, which is why they
find themselves in this situation. Spending was
ramped up in response to unsustainable revenue
streams generated by bubble tech economy and
capital gains on stock profits taken during the
bubble. Now we see the flip side - a bear market
with capital losses on the tax forms and a lack
of income from those high tech darlings of 97-00.
