If this could be rolled into a law that would be GREAT Speaking as a thourough and security minded developer who has developed some high profile , high traffic, high hack factor sites and come through it unscathed, I would LOVE to see this implemented Why ?
Think about it for a minute, suddenly all the half wits that call themselved developers and flood the marked get hung out to dry, Inscurance like malpractice inscurance is created, and only the Top Notch developers who are willing to stake their reputation as well as personal finances on the line are coding Can you IMAGINE what the salary would be for someone who survived the initial shakeout and run ? 200k + EASY
Not so much at all to the parent poster, but all the absurd children. Pressure is relative, your lungs dont collapse even at 3k feet while diving , (nor would they at 100k, why ? The pressure is relative , thats why you need to "decompress" when surfacing, think of a pop bottle, its under pressure, do you see bubbles ? not , but off with the top and bam, fizz (and if youre a person a dirt nap)
The problems become gaseous toxicity at depth for land based animals, pure o2 befomens fatal at 1 atmosphere (14.7 psi or 33 ft) Standard air at 297 feet, (or when the partial pressure of o2 reaches 1 Atm) For marine life there are some that are dependednt on that biological reaction of gases in hyperbaric enviroments
The actual pressure itself has NOTHING to do WHATSO FRICKING Ever on the physical well being of any animal.
And as far as the genius that said you dont even need a space suit, just a mask to cover your mucuous membranes, you sir are a moron. (remeber the pop bottle, be my guest , Walking out an air lock ond you might even POP, dont forget explosive decompression occurs at more than 10k per minute.
I am seriously dismayed at this post for somewhat SUPPOSEDLY technically inclined people, I knew this shit when I was 14, and I was actually NAUI Dive Master certified by 16, but shit this is 9th grade science class.....
Funny part is he was a plumber, HVAC and Pipefitter, its all the same union here, I was too. Hence HW heat, it costs around $500-$600 per year to heat the home with Oil (Oil fired boiler as gas is only in the last 2 years available at that address.
But since he built the home himself it was a non-issue to install them in the walls when the first storty frame was being buil, my concern as the next owner of the home is is what to do when they do go bad, leave them in place or fill the gaping hole they will leave.
The First National Bank here in akron was still using them into the late 80's when I would go in I would laugh as that where they were shall we say "Acquired" from....
What kills me are the fans on them , they have a huge CFM rating and the motors are whisper quiet, high precision...
I honestly thought there might be a $200 a month jump, My Central air in a new house cost me $60 a month in electricity, Likewise 2 window units in my old house that didnt cool even close cost $100 a month to run, its all relative, and in a fairly big older house $60 is probably less than a newer central air unit would run with the same insulation.
Hey its not like you cant buy little-bo-peep in any cleaning aisle
But actually I have no Idea what they use to make meth, personally I would use a hydrogenation method and forgo any toxic chemicals, but hey most meth lab dudes didnt exactly take organic chemistry now did they:)
My mothers house has 2 ammonia Air Conditioning units built in the mid to late 40's they were "Overage" for a bank and made their way into my grandfathers new home, since it is a hot water heated house its great, let me tell you these things will even chill the upstairs of the house , at 2000 ish square feet to push cold up is not a bad trick, the volume they output is the key.
The funny part ? They still work flawlessly, and have not been serviced since at least 1977 ( In know this for a fact as thats when my grandad passed away)
Their electric consumption is actually minimal, running both all month equates to about a 60$ electricity increase. Unreal if you ask me, I kept thinking we were on an electric budget the first summer I fired em up in 20 years as it was way to hot for my grandma without air so I told her I would cover the bill. it never went up....
The beauty is these units will spill the ammonia outsie through the exhaust should the coils ever rupture (I doubt it since they are about 1/8 in thick copper:) Designed well, and built like German tanks...
It would seem this gadget quite paid for itself by this one action, no other action need be performed by this unit for its lifespan to prove its worth.
On a dark note, possibly, if here in the US, it would have saved a hell of a lawsuit of wich th atty fees would probably sum that total.
But a life at 100k $ us...not bad...not to mention I am sure her and her family couldnt be more happy.....
THe "Weakest" hardware I ever ran it on was a 386 16mhz with a 20 meg MFM Hard Drive and 4 megs of ram, it took nearly and hour to boot, I was bored and had the HW so I tried it, talk about a brebones system even minesweeper and sol were removed to make the install fly.
I was running Windows 95 Beta (And Alpha's) for a year and half before its release, and running them EXCLUSIVLEY.
I have one of the Alpha disks around ( one that was distributed within MS that I am 90% sure dates to 93, and I have one that dates to 1/1/94, I always will remeber that one because I thought shit these guys are working on NEW YEARS ????
14 1.44 floppy's (for the upgrade if I remeber right (maybe 13).
The sad part was the last RC I got was SUBSTANTIALLY more stable than the Initial release was
I actually reverted to it until it expired It was explaine to me by a buddy at MS (the one who got me the Alpha's and the Beta's , it was driver issues, that I wouldnt doubt, but it sure beat the HELL out of Windows 3.1
We didnt want them here 13,000 years ago , either , that pretty much why we killed them off and didnt selectivley breed them here.

Defending the GPL
Sunday, August 07 2005 @ 07:26 AM EDT
I heartily recommend that you read Eric Laffoon's article in Open for Business. If it were allowed, I'd put every word of it here on Groklaw. Laffoon is the project lead for KDE's Kdewebdev module. It's the best answer I've seen to anyone who claims we need to ditch the GPL to ensure business uptake or that we don't need the GPL any more.
"Is commercial software the salvation of Linux?" he asks. I'll answer that. Linux doesn't need business. It has an independent life and will take over no matter what. It's businesses that need Linux, not the other way around. Here are just two paragraphs from the article:
To me FOSS as Richard Stallman has set in motion with the GNU GPL is about the greater good of humanity as opposed to the selfish greed of a few people. The GPL has insured the freedom of users while showing that the closed development model has real flaws. Let's not lose site of what's important. Our community provides the moral center at probably the most pivitol point in history. 500 years ago the printing press ended the dark ages with an unprecedented sharing of ideas. The internet offers dramatically more potential. Thankfully Microsoft was late to the party and FOSS was there to prevent them getting dominant control of the new international currency, information access. The battle for the freedom of access for us and our children is not over. We need to cooperate to insure the enemies of freedom don't overcome us, not attack those who should be our allies. Wars have been lost over just such foolishness.
In otherwords Screw the people who are "Demainding" blah blah blah, its THEIR duty to conform if THEY want to use linux , not OUR duty to make sure OUR Linux conforms to THEIR needs...
Put it on ebay and let the bidding begin.... My Bid for toiletry FREE trash starts at 50$ a pound..... Lets see 50$/3000 lbs , hey the goverment could buy a new hammer AND toilet seat and still have $12 left over...
Like Horse meat for me, I dont mind it at all and kinda like it from time to time, I cant get my kids to eat it at all, deer, squirrel or rabbit neither. Oh well.....at least the Frogs still eat Horses, Dont they ?
I , being a Dick, have to say this , South Korea clonign dogs is like the US cloning chickens.
Lets be frank they eat Dogs there, and they LIKE them, we have a fellow here where I work that says the White or lighter ones tasted better than Darker ones, black being the least tasty, and you have to kill them right (cats also) otherwise the blood taints the meat.
I will have to forward this to him, anyone that can carry on an honest and frank discussion in the US about eating Dog deverves my respect.
Years ago I had a screwed up disk , oddly in between my shoulder blades , I dont remeber the number, It was the result or rotating with a 50 lb wrench in my hand around a ladder to catch myself from falling
Sugery was the only option, then a doctor at Cleveland Clinic said they were doing trials with an enzyme extracted from papaya, the idea was they would "tenderize" the disk and manipulate it back in to shape and 48 hrs later the softeing effects would wear off and the disk would become firm over the next several weeks
Better than surgery and it worked 100%, the worst part , (other than the BIG scarry needle with "Aldofs" Meat tenderizer as the doctor joked was being put in "traction" for some 48 hrs after so it could firm up agian

I dono about YOU but I dont go buying books on Slashdot that are linked with an AFFILIATE ID so someone gets a kickback. Kudos to whoever submitted the story, nothing like free advertising, and shame on the editor that published it with the Source ID in the querystring
Unless of course that is slashdots ID , in that case great part of submarine income on Slashdots part

Pull the old lasers on the head schtic, but man, this is actually kinda scarry.
I mean really, no moral tirade about fuzzy, well squeeky cute animals etc.
But the question I have is how LONG will they go uncaptured, I mean is this something we need to worry about for a year or two ?
And better yet who has the fire button ? Flipper himself ?
5000 Degrees and I can PROMISE no data will survive.
Thermite can be purchased for 60$ US Per 10 Lb from most pyrotechnic suppliers in the US (Also see special Effects and Welding)
Muratic acid left to sit a few days will do the trick too ($5 US at any HW store).
