I don't see the RutanGang as a model to follow. Sure, there is a lot of bravado and ingenuity but I really don't think you can compare the product against what Nasa has accomplished.
What Nasa is now saying is basically that politics have intervened with science and technology at a great cost. The ISS is in the wrong spot and is not suited to the tasks at hand. However, it does provide a number of usefull lessons and shows us that StarTrek style space exploration should remain in hollywood. Long term habitation in space is a stupid thing to do and now that we have learned that, we should concentrate on the rock we live on, send robots out to space.
I suspect that because/. told you to smoke pot you could sue them and make Million$!! Then you could sit back and smoke pot till the end of your days....
Oh yeah, I forgot about fish... dang that is a good one!!
You know what, I am gonnan retry to install KDE this weekend...
I love mac but I my first love was KDE...
Well there are some aspects of KDE which are not possible under OSX without significant tweaks or non-free software. For example, the browser, Konqueror will go everywhere, even below the "unseen line" of OSX and yes, you can tweak finder to go there to but not without non-free software and even then, you'r stuck with finder's interface.
You can have a variety of io-slaves under KDE allowing great integration with a variety of network services, yes we can do alot of that with OSX but again, interface and third party add-ons... (webdav over ssl???)
Furthermore, KDE is a development environment in itself and many developers will be happy to see that they can work two in one!
I am impressed that it works, I have tried many times to get Fink and the gang working with Tiger and I have borked on each and every occasion. So reading the australian exploits with expectation!!
This is funny, why look at what you have in terms of wht the next guy has? You hopelessly end up chasing after the bigger fish! There is always a bigger fish! When are people going to learn to be happy with what they have and who they are. It's funny because I recognize in this debate some aspects of Maslow's hierarchy of needs and there a lot of folks that just ain't getting to the top!
Indeed, but what is interesting is that this may cause some challenges to *nix-windows interoperability. Many installed linux servers will have been using the "older" encryption bases for domain logons and samba shares. These are not unovercomeable but may prove to be challenging on the implementation side.
Well thats good. I just saw earlier today that the Left fraction in the second chamber may push a motion of no confidence in Donner!! That would be historic!
And this plugin will be integrated in their browser and will not be availabel on other platforms. They will shove it down everyone's throat by giving it away to their existing clients in their best attempt yet to hit three birds with one stone!
1. Only IE - win browser war
2. Only Windows - trash other desktop
3. Hurt Adobe - to hurt adobe - ooh Adobe scare MS!!
So wip out yer tinfoil hats my friends, it's time to get paranoid about Mickeysoft again!!!
I dunno but Donner and Balkie combined with Zalm smells awefully neocon to me!
The case may stem from a previous cabinet but the coverup was Donner's administration.
As for the dataretention dutch ISP xs4all.nl has quite a scoop about the local implementation!!
http://www.xs4all.nl/nieuws/bericht.php?id=671
Donner being a big proponent of gestaponet(tm) being implemented!
It is astounding how much this current neo-con government in Holland is gettign away with! First ISP data interception and retention, then convicting people by withholding dna evidence! And now they want to gestapize the social security! And this in a country which used to be vehement about civil rights!!!
Well this is interesting, just this morning I was wondering if it would be possible in US cities for local government to push initiative for mass transport, bicycle paths and de-stimulation of motor traffic.
I mean really, in many US cities it is dangerous to be a pedestrian or cyclist! With all the obesity and pollution it is necessary
Personally I have been listening to loud music since the early eighties and my hearing is just fine.
My pitch at the schpiel is that hearing may not be damaged but that lengthy isolation in your iPod may have a correlation to some form of Aspergers or in any event introvertness and perhaps iPodders ain't deaf, they simply ignore the outside world subconsciously!
Achaa!!! But the ads aren't specified in the patent! d'OH, Someone else has patented those.. sheesh.. maybe I'll patent a device "demonstrating the user has padi for delivery and adress lookup service for documents, parcels and furry wombats" I'll call it the postage stamp!!
And whilst we're at it, lets patent a device " enabling users to move around the planets atmosphere aat high speed" we'll call that one an aeroplane!!
And for those of us more cartoonly inclined, "a round shaped piece of dough, with a hole in the center, covered with a variety of toppings such as, but not limited to, raspberry jelly, chocolate, salt and pepper, jallopeno and such the like"
This one will be called the "Homer Simpson Doughnut"
The iPod will lead Job's into the oval office!! The iPod will solve world hunger!! The iPod will bring peace to the middle east!! The iPod will make airline food taste good!! The iPod will ensure she swallows!! The iPod will give us nuclear fusion, environmently friendly cars and help the Iraqis form a peaceful democratic society!! The iPod will make first contact possible!! The iPod will cure cancer!! The iPod will get rid of viruses, even on windows!!
Slashdot Mirror
Dang I couldn't have put it better myself! But NeoOffice/J isn't MS and it works on Mac so...
*engaging reality distortion field*
*powering up Halo Effect generators*
It's the Best Office Replacement Yet (tm)!!!
NeoOffice/J (http://www.planamesa.com/neojava/en/index.php) is a Java port so feel free to figure out the JavaScript issues and share your pancakes!
This story is only possible if the chap in question has a chromosome too many!
ROFL!!!
LMFAO!!!!
PIMPFL!!!!

That the tr-1 was featured in BruceBrown's epic surf flick Endless Summer
In various shots throughout the film you can see Surfer Mike Hynson sporting the little radio throughout their surfari in Africa!

Holy cow, that's right.. ohh memory lane... the dweeb would always twist his controller and crash and burn!!!
Interesting, but it is the first chamber of parliament that's mumbling... they have little actual power over the lower house and cabinet.
I dunno but Donner and Balkie combined with Zalm smells awefully neocon to me! The case may stem from a previous cabinet but the coverup was Donner's administration.

OMG you have 120 slackware boxes?
*bow down* we're not worthy!
Is it not easier to use gentoo for such a monstrous installation base?
What? What are you mumbling? SPEAK UP MAN!

Oh I can imagine a few mods for my 3T-BioArms ROFL!!!

Then perhaps you have a "safe" iPod. There are ports of louder firmware to enhance your "deafness progression"
The swedish cook that blasted your ipod
