I'll take the [1][2][3][4] of the default GNOME desktop pager, it's quite all right. I can even drag windows between desktops with it. Shiny screenshots, though.
go to Wikipedia, where neutrality isn't just a Nice Thing, it's the #1 policy. There's a Current Events spot on the front page.
Oh? What's that? It's not as comprehensive? Well, it's a wiki, not a search engine! Seems you just can't have it both ways...
Note that there is talk of a WikiNews run by the MediaWiki foundation, but at present it is mostly idle speculation, and no real plans to make such a site.
... and the order was delayed. At first it was delayed a while... then some more... eventually after about two months of delays (I'm far too patient) I cancelled the order and switched to IBM.
HP is nice and shiny and make good printers and are fairly Linux-friendly, but they have issues. I think the issue they blamed in my case was something about a shortage of memory chips. =/
And you automatically assume just because the money is initially military its going to be used to "kill people"?
Notice also that with technology like this, when they do kill people, they kill fewer people, because they know exactly where to put the bombs and can use smaller bombs that only blow up the target. Compare the average World War II carpet bombing campaign with a modern-day strike using a "smart bomb" or missle of some sort.
There are plenty of robots out there, which are indeed fully functional. Perhaps you are looking for a term such as "android" to refer to a humanoid robot. But under current definitions, a "robot" could simply refer to the programmable arm which welds together or paints your new car.
When I went to the local water treatment plant, they had a set of turbines to burn the gas which they could extract from the wastewater. They weren't using them. It was cheaper for them to just buy electricity as they needed.
cities that grow like viruses, cities that look and function like holes made by earthworms
Last I checked, viruses weren't really alive (they're borderline) and they don't grow. Instead, they infect cells and force the cells to produce more of them- generally wrecking the cell in the process.
Option 1. City in space. Big dome, sealing out vacuum. Plenty of light, I suppose, but not much else.
Option 2. City on remote planet. Big dome, sealing out planet's unbreathable atmosphere. Plenty of dirt and rocks around, I suppose, and you can mine.
Option 3. City in the ocean. Big done, sealing out water. Plenty of water nearby, AND a good seabed with plenty of mining capabilities. Not as good on the light/energy deal, but you can't win 'em all: maybe you could do fusion by then, or maybe you could drill down to the mantle, or something.
Yes. The terrible upper class conspiracies happen at the religious/private schools. To cite one example, about a decade ago one of the local religious schools started a building project to replace the roof. Ten years and over ten million dollars later, they have a "new parking lot" (of about 8 spaces), an extension to the school, an incredibly expensive gymnasium floor which had been donated but now needs to be more or less completely replaced due to warping, a new playground set... and just now they've STARTED to replace the roof. Tuition has skyrocketed, educational standards have plummeted... hardly anyone who's really interested in the "religious" aspect of the school can afford it... and no one is quite sure where all the money has got off to. There's talk of embezzlement at some level, and the possibilities of them losing nonprofit status.
Just proving that the needy don't steal even half so much as the rich when given the oppurtunity.
My school has a new spiffy wireless network too, but they still have an old wired one. Nevertheless I believe I have seen a regulation stating that no access points are to be allowed on campus, and that certain varieties of cordless phones were going to be, if not banned, Strongly Strongly discouraged. I'm "in" with the technology program here (evaluating the occasional gadget, like the new printer/scanner/copier devices) so I know how to inform these people of stuff like this.
It seems that they are more interested in banning the devices which use this part of the spectrum rather than the actual use. Would this make any difference? I mean, they're already banning toasters and the like (though it's not that people who like toast can't find it anyway . ..)
that for the next twenty years no one will be able to search for an image based on those sorts of similarities without money going to these people? TANJ.

Just go with the GPL so you can legally steal whatever code you need back.

You're thinking of The Rescuers, a 1977 Disney film. And they were mice, not rats. Close, though.
Are these the robotic rats we heard of earlier?
Doesn't Hotmail let you forward your mail somewhere else? Couldn't you forward it to your Gmail account? Or is this a premium service?
So play people online, perhaps?

Around these parts, it works the other way around... things are legal until they're illegal. Who shouldn't be allowed to use it?
There are plenty of robots out there, which are indeed fully functional. Perhaps you are looking for a term such as "android" to refer to a humanoid robot. But under current definitions, a "robot" could simply refer to the programmable arm which welds together or paints your new car.
Theoretically, would it be possible to try this the other way around with a fluid less viscous /a>than water? Like, say, ethyl alcohol or acetone or methanol...

If I were them, I'd grab the Firefox source, and rebrand it. Tada.
An Everything2 link? Bah! I must recriprocate with the Wikipedia article on the man!
Old trends coming back? All right. Drop me a note when you see your girlfriend wearing one of these, kay?

My, what an off-topic ramble.
Either that or you must be doing something really, inherently right. With these federal bodies, you can never really tell.

That doesn't work too well, unfortunately, with proxies, such as the giant black hole of the Internet which is AOL.
For values of "today's technology" equal to "Microsoft's latest DRM systems."

Doom 3 with all the special effects *on*? Darn. I'm going to need a new computer.
