Incorrect. I played on one of those machines when i was young, and the token was 3 Romanian Lei which - at the time (~ 1983) was 1/3 of an Russian Rubla. The games realy sucked - and the worst thing was that it was in German and only the main menu items were (poorly) translated on a piece of paper glued to the cabinet.
Shuzzle - The Shadow Puzzle A 3D block building puzzle where yo' ass cannot see da blocks but only they shadows." This means yo' ass'll has keep a strong mental understanding of da blocks 'n how they fit together n' shit. A bomb diggity brain buster n' shit.

5 & 8 port switches are cheap. Shielded cat5 is cheap. Unshielded cat5 (for runs 70m inside buildings) is even cheaper. For jumps between buildings use some steel wire (the kind used for drying clothes is the best), secure-it and then wrap the cat5 around it. Ensure that the switches won't be rained on and that the power can't be disconnected accidentaly. If you have jumps between buildings larger than 10m use ProtectNet (or other eclators). If you want redundancy use switches that support spanning tree and create network loops. Is 100baseT, is cheap and it works. See http://www.era.ro/ for an example. There are almost 100 networks like this here in Bucharest.
I am Romanian. In order to stop this our gov't issued some crazy laws (like if someone made something illegal from your IP address you can do up to 15 years in jail). But the law enforcement here usually can't tell a computer from a fax machine to save their lives:(
Simmilar story. 17yr old h4x0r hacks and destroys all data on some server at my uni. The owner of the server - an prof who had his research data on that server - found from the uni network admins who was the culprit and at the next exam told to all the failed students that if "they will take care" of the h4x0r they will get a passing grade. They all did. The h4x0r spent next 2 months in hospital with both arms broken and other injuries. Not urban legend.
ipv6 it's all good'n stuff but where can i find software that will enable ipv6 support for older computers ? In the lines of:
- 68k Mac running MacOS 7.5
- 486 running MSDOS w/ cygwnr Packet Driver
- 486/pentium running win95/98
accelerate like crazy (easilly achieving mach5 in 50 kms) and opening one extremety of the tunel (pointing up of course), just launch it more than 5000kms per hour from the ground.
At that speed - it will be like launghing the rocket into a solid wall. The impact with the in-rushing air (remember - the tunnel is vaccumed) will be too great.
The second thing is that it will be extremely costly to build such a air-proof structure.
The election method in Romania is almost fool-proof: you go inside, you give your ID to the election official for your street area which greps your name & address in the list. You verify the info and sign and he/she hands you the ballot and a rubber stamp dipped in ink. You go inside the "vote room" and put the stamp inside a large circle next to the name/party. If you cross the printed circle or try to stamp multiple options (oven multiple stamps in the same circle) the ballot will considered invalid. You fold the ballot and put it into a sealed box. You return the stamp and get your ID back.
What goes wrong is that some people manage to also drop the (read: forcefully push) the rubber stamp into the ballot box or "lose" the stamp in the few metters from the ballot box to the desk.
Does the Earth have AMIBIOS of AWARD ? The Earth's.bin fits on a single floppy ? Where is the Earth's floppy drive ? What will IIS do if the flashing process fails ? It will be left with an unusable Earth ? And what this flashing will bring new ? microcode for what new CPUs ? Easier overclocking ? (wow - imagine 2.5 Earth revolutions per day !)
America is NOT "the land of the free" BUT "the land of the cheap". Look at the usual Prices of the stuff we got here in the east of eastern europe. (hint: add 19% sales tax to the displayed prices in USD)
15$ is cheap.

As a romanian - this makes me sad.
Where is this lake mentioned in the article ? A Google search reveals nothing.

:)
yes.
> Do all the basic tools and plugins take advantage of tilt and pressure?
Yes - but as my cheapo wacom is only presure sersitive - i cannot comment on the tilt.

How about forking a few hundred times more for a version of sort ? :)
Kind of slow, old and hard to find.
But its small, has a somewhat usable keyboard, its small and it runs linux. Did i mention how small it is ? :)
