I'm all for their ideas on OpenSolaris, but this may be going a bit too far. Didn't they open Solaris to sell more hardware? I'm pretty sure a company that doesn't make money is like a species that doesnt reproduce... dead.
Borland's JBuilder 2006 has a pretty neat p2p feature, so you can pass a token around for editing, or watch the editing in follow mode. I found it very helpful and quick. I believe it uses the jabber protocol, and even works with google talk.
A bit OT, but... Here's the article abstract to which I was referring:
Astronomical Engineering: A Strategy For Modifying Planetary Orbits
The Sun's gradual brightening will seriously compromise the Earth'sbiosphere within sim 109 years. If Earth's orbit migrates outward,however, the biosphere could remain intact over the entiremain-sequence lifetime of the Sun. In this paper, we explore thefeasibility of engineering such a migration over a long timeperiod. The basic mechanism uses gravitational assists to (in effect)transfer orbital energy from Jupiter to the Earth, and therebyenlarges the orbital radius of Earth. This transfer is accomplishedby a suitable intermediate body, either a Kuiper Belt object or a mainbelt asteroid. The object first encounters Earth during an inward passon its initial highly elliptical orbit of large (sim 300 AU)semimajor axis. The encounter transfers energy from the object to theEarth in standard gravity-assist fashion by passing close to theleading limb of the planet. The resulting outbound trajectory of theobject must cross the orbit of Jupiter; with proper timing, theoutbound object encounters Jupiter and picks up the energy it lost toEarth. With small corrections to the trajectory, or additionalplanetary encounters (e.g., with Saturn), the object can repeat this process over many encounters. To maintain its present flux of solarenergy, the Earth must experience roughly one encounter every 6000years (for an object mass of 1022 g). We develop the details ofthis scheme and discuss its ramifications.
I remember a NASA article about this, but it was in relation to using asteroids to engineer a change in earths orbit to compensate for global warming. Amusing!
I can see it now... Americans abroad can now be picked out of a crowd at 60 feet thanks to a long range RFID detector, in addition, the device has already been configured to fit on gun barrels.
Who cares if it can be read, being detected is bad enough.
I have heared from a former mormon the following:
- Mormons believe if you are not "good" in this life, you return as a black person in the next.
- Before a Mormon virgin is married, she is forced to be bathed (fully nude) by a group of clergy elders in the temple, all alone.
- The only way a person goes to hell is if they were a Mormon, and decided to not be anymore. Mormons go to heaven, non-mormons go to heaven, but "lost" mormons know the truth, chose against it, and therefore go to hell.
Bad Idea. Government is horrible at handling upgrades. They'll just spend our money for some expensive, useless project and end up taking more of our money. It may be hard to believe, but free-market is actually rather efficient when there is a fixed budget and customers to loose.
As a side note, don't dare you do any p2p on the government network, they'll surely hand over your name, mac addy, etc to any corporation or cartel with no fight.
You should really think about cooling your HDDs, heat kills them, in my experience. You know those screws they come with? make sure you put all 4 in, tight. They help with the heat transfer. I have not had one hdd die in 5 years in my CoolerMaster case. The HDDs run room temperature to the touch. Cheap cases though.. I've had many HDDs die. I sense a pattern.

I've had an experience or two with women. I can tell you they are way to unstable to be running linux.

That's why I go to a state school.

Negative information? Doesn't that happen when one watches TV? I swear I get stupider every time I turn it on.
that is blatantly an advertizement. Xen's PR person must be crying in happiness. Shame on you slash
you just can't compare apples and intels.
Isn't 802.16 NOT meant for mobile uses? Also, I believe it has pretty bad performance when it rains. (Seattle....)
Here's my solution to the greater unwanted communication Anti-spam paper submitted to Conference on Email and Anti-Spam
yeah, well visualroute says the IP is in Bombay, India. Too far for me to go.

I hope they also make 100 seconds to a minute, 100 minutes to an hour etc, or anything really that is _not_ our system.
Openoffice isn't a serious competitor to MS Word?

its etc. for 'et cetera'
"But, I see an awful lot of emails and reports that are nearly incomprehensible."
:)
hmm, maybe we shouldn't start sentences with "But,." or was that just an example of you not using perfect grammar?
perhaps its true, Americans just like to use fuel.
take a deep breath and blow on it.
college student (no money)??
the dude has a flat screen TV doesnt he?!
