Also the German government would be interested.
A very similar penetration was detected on IT infrastructure of several German govt. agencies no long ago.
Lots of internal information where uploaded to the internet before it was detected and stopped
Not bad solution, bat I would prefer a more directly use of the sunshine on the moon... with appropriate filtration.
Maybe instead of using solar cells to power a lightning system a better idea would be to use light collectors and then conduct the light through optical fibers to the greenhouse where plants grow.
Rather than answering the question about if a plant can grow in lunar gravity, I think it would be far more interesting to know if a plant can grow on lunar soil and with lunar sunshine.
Not directly of course! But what kind of soil treatment, additives and sunshine/radiation filtering would have to be done to be able to grow plants on a moon based greenhouse.
The question is. How much of what the moon offers can we use to grow plants there, and what adaptations must be done both to lunar based greenhouse and plants to use as much of moon resources as possible?
Sunshine during the day doesnt seem to be a problem in the moon;-)
But those cold long nights:-(
What about a near polar location with eternal sunlight? For example along the rim of the crater Peary
Just ditch DRM,it annoys your best customer first.
Get the games easy to download from the internet. Put a low enough game/subscription price so is more of a bother to get the pirated game or play with pirate servers than the real ones.
Profit from merchandise, game events, championships, maybe even some advertisement.
MS just need to collect money every three years. They upgrade the OS telling people they get new and shiny technology.
The truth is that there is no real compelling reason to upgrade from 2000 to XP to Vista.
No real gain. They just throw new "functionalities "which only annoy the user, but which real intentions is either piss them off into migrating (cancelling support for legacy applications) or create new benifits "for them" instead for the user (DRMzation).
I think instead of waiting for Windows 7 or migrating to OSX, I will just wait for Google OS;-)
Linux been second option (Kubuntu)
With all the hardware and manpower they have available to operate the great Chinese Firewall(tm), I wonder why are not offering it as a internet service.
They could make options oriented to different customers. For example, other authoritarian countries with different censorship requirements, but also children access from schools, public institutions or companies where access to "certain" pages have/must/should be restricted.
They can also offer services through their
"Internet commentators," or so-called Fifty Cent Party, to sway public opinion online, much like viral marketing works in the private sector around the world. They could rent that service too. Useful for PR, political campaigns, marketing or anything that has something to do with influencing(manipulating) public opinion in most different directions
They could even offer a free option, with adds, so people can try first. Adds could be used to promote China's world-view/companies/products and tourism:-)
If China wants to make inroads in the service market, it is a good idea to use something already in place that no one else has.
I think they really have a hidden unused asset in that "Great China Firewall". They also have a catchy brand name! I hope they have already registered it!;-)
Use "The Great China Firewall! Milliards of satisfied customers already enjoy it! great and reliable service guaranteed"
That is available with the premium option, not available in the free option.
With the gold or platinum option you can also be sent to a reeducation camp.;-)
In the end telcos will be just a tube like company, similar to the light, gas and electricity utilities.
The limits existing today are completely artificial.
Some post here describe the faked launch as an usual practice in reporting news.
For a given event you have two articles with the possible outcomes ready in order to be able to pub lish faster.
That is applicable to newspapers or any order printed press media, where there is the need to send the article to the printing presses, usually having to wait to the last minute (or second).
But faking a rocket launch this way? With audio! Sorry but I do not buy it. Have you ever seen a news on TV preparing to different videos of an interview or of an real world event? Not even in the radio broadcast they do such things
Easy solution!
Just implement a software that will produce (if the user demand it) a set of sounds that help the user to identify the activity taking place inside the hard drive.
Being the sounds implemented in software rather than in hardware. It would give a greatly enhanced uses experience.
For example:
huuuummm.......hummmm..........hummm................ The Flash drive is running happily.
Whiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii. Heavy activity.
Rumble.....rumble......rumble..... Something is going wrong.
Klonk....klonk........klonk........ Something is broken.
Sharpness of sound can also adjusted as the drive ages. Sloooooower sound help to indicate... time for a new drive!!
Until we are able to download (and upload) our conscience in/from a solid state computer, life in space is going to be a lot uncomfortable.
Our bodies are too much adapted to living in this planet. Trying to replicate such environment in space take just too resources, energy and weight.
We should buy some licenses of that transfer technology from the Cylons.
Slashdot Mirror
Boot always from an trusted, read only media, like CD/DVD or locked USB thumb drive.
Media should contain not only OS but applications in trusted configuration. No updates allowed from outside trusted entities
Use only boot media provided from trusted entity
Maybe use also something like tripwire to detect change in the OS/applications files checking changes by comparing sensitive file
Full encryption on sensitive data/drives

An the trail seemed to lead... you know where.
enough said
Women! You forget women!
You have no idea what women carry on their bags.
Room enough for a netbook, even battery back integrated in bag.
Some integreated social network software and you have a new bussiness line in your computer production
Dell? Apple? Are you hearing?

Stop shooting your own feet,
I am afraid another sugared water John Sculley will come and blew it, but this time there will not be any jobs to rescue the company.
Steve Wozniak maybe. No to easy I think, he is quite a different character.
A combination of salesman and visionary like job is hard to come by.
Doubtful times in Apple are coming.
How about Android, Chrome and Google apps as basis for building a Netbook.
A Windows (and Linux) mobile killer?

There is something funny or damn right dumb here.
Is crome affected? ;-)
DonÂt create any sensitive information
Around the moon, what could be worst? Toilet failure or running out of toilet paper?
Take a portable generator and some liters of gas.
;-)
Use the generator to recharge the car in case the batteries run out of juice.
A sort of hybrid card
I really hope that the new IE security experience is something like this.
