Nice try, but wrong. PG&E has tried repeatedly to get permission to build a reactor just a few miles south of San Jose. They keep getting stonewalled by the Wackos, who file complaint after complaint and lawsuit after lawsuit, with no purpose but to rack up expense and delay it even longer.
If we're exposing political biases here, why not identify the DCSD as being left-wing? After all, they prefer for everyone to accept their a priori conclusion as gospel truth, even without sufficient factual data to support them.
The 2000 blackouts weren't only because of fraudulent energy trading practices (although that did play a part). You portray the Wackos as demanding good design of nuke stations. When was the last time a nuke station was built in California? Over 20 years ago, thanks to the Wackos. They don't care about good design; now they only care about no design at all.
You say you've toured the Diablo Canyon facility, and that's how you know it was built right? If you know that's the case, why aren't you in the business of nuclear reactor design? Or do you think that simply touring the facility gives you all the knowledge you need to verify its soundness and robustness?
You sound exactly like the people Bjorn Lomborg looks at. Why not take a look at how much you really don't know, before you make such an ignorant conclusion.
On one hand the US is trying to punish a country for not falling in line with their war
It goes beyond "not falling in line." The French government actually worked to undermine US efforts, by trying to rally world governments against them. Fortunately for the Iraqi people, they failed.
which most of the world viewed as unnecessary and was highly against (including the population of the country in question).
This ruling pertains only to the Verizon case, although it has implications for other current cases. It doesn't apply to cases already settled, especially since they were settled out of court.
I launched Emacs this morning, just for grins (I don't use it, but it's installed by default). It was up and ready in less than 2 seconds on my 2GHz Athlon-XP. HA!
When the Blizzard of '78 hit, you had, in essence, an inland hurricane. Two low pressure systems merged, producing a single system that was deeper than either of the original two. It then pulled moisture from the south, and cold air from the north. Voila, hurricane over land.
Let me get this straight. You rant about how the Republicans rigged the election in Florida, but you don't mention one word about the Democrats in Chicago? Where the voting corruption still is so endemic that they're the butt of a national joke?
The modprobe output for kernel 2.6 is radically different... and modprobe now uses/etc/modprobe.conf rather than/etc/modules.conf. To generate the modprobe.conf file, run "generate-modprobe.conf >/etc/modprobe.conf" as root. Without that file, auto-loading of your sound card drivers will not work.
I hashed this one out with Patrick and Rusty Russell, and Rusty was the one who caught it.
Then can we send it the way of the Voyager crafts? A Kevlar(tm) vest around it to protect from microdust, escape velocity perpendicular to the Milky Way, and if we're lucky, some other civilization will find it and use it to look at us.
that the President, or a Cabinet official, personally ordered the redaction? That's like saying that Bush personally ordered Mayor Street's office in Philadelphia to be bugged. It's a non-sequitur.
But it does speak volumes about your personal prejudices.
I read the RFC, and frankly I'm not convinced. The worry is the ability to spoof local IPv4 addresses on an IPv6-enabled interface? So code the checks into it. Make it configurable from init scripts, so that one interface can be marked "external only" and another can be marked "internal only". Make it so that only the "lo" interface can get::ffff:127.0.0.1 traffic.
If we can use iptables to set up firewall/NAT rules, we can build the necessary safeguards into the dual-stack IP system. Anything's possible in Open Source.
Two questions: 1. What is your CPU and MHz? 2. What is your power supply's capacity?
I have an AMD Athlon (Thunderbird), 900 MHz. Not sure what my PS will do, and I don't feel like opening up the case to find out. It's about mid-level from two years ago.
According to the AMD specs, 195 deg F is the max operating temp for an Athlon. Time was, when the ambient was around 80 deg F, the CPU would be at 180 when idle and 190 when active. Some heat sink compound instantly took about 50 degrees off the temperatures. Right now, at 68 ambient, my CPU temp is 136, when nearly idle.

If the "country in question" is Iraq, you are grossly short-sighted.
A student has a white-supremacist blog, the university is legally responsible.
Which I think is perfectly right.
Would the same be said of a student supporting Bjorn Lomborg on his website? Is "independent thinking" no longer fashionable in unis?
Oh, and by the way: do your unis also monitor conversations on the campus telephone network?

A Dutch court ruled today that Kazaa can't be blamed for what its users share.
A good day indeed for community access to information.

That's just begging for a system cracker to break you out of the jail.

Bias exposed, game over.
It's much more virus-resistant.
And it's got a permanent discount of 100% off the Windows XP retail price.
And Windows still sucks.
(Mine, too.)
Remember who used the term "white n---ers" on national TV? It certainly wasn't a Republican. Your own partisan bigotry doesn't help your cause.
I hashed this one out with Patrick and Rusty Russell, and Rusty was the one who caught it.
After all, the EU constitution has 230 pages. All it needs are a better plot, and some character development...
Then can we send it the way of the Voyager crafts? A Kevlar(tm) vest around it to protect from microdust, escape velocity perpendicular to the Milky Way, and if we're lucky, some other civilization will find it and use it to look at us.
Real programmers understand the data flow behind their language. Wannabes use Visual Basic.
Yet, you sit there and read Slashdot. Pot, meet kettle.
But it does speak volumes about your personal prejudices.
And the list goes on...
Giving employees a choice in the matter shows, not only that you care, but also that you're flexible and considerate.
And 98 million years to accumulate it. Your point?
