[In other words, the justification for the war didn't really matter at all. They might as well have said, "We're going to invade Iraq because they have too much sand." And 50% of the American people would have believed that, pitching in to help redistribute the sand to the other sand-poor nations of the world, most notably Canada, which has almost no sand whatsoever but still somehow manages to remain calm. ]
Seems like no one ever consider using liquid metal coolant instead.
Lq metal like NaK are much more efficient then water. In combination with a MHD pumps, the whole system can be free of moving parts and noiseless.
I am concerned about the quality of those recycled water. Sure it should have removed most contagious subtances, but how about heavy metal, toxin and may be human hormones?
American man have mark drop sperm count due to contamination of drink water with female hormone; which originate from birth control pills and get into drinking water via recycling sewage.
Will that ZeeWeed system remove all these contaminants? I really doubt.
I prefer the PowerPC arhitecture over the kludge-on-kludge-on-kludge x86. x86 is shit, IDE is shit, most hw on PCs are kludgy. Mac hw are very clean and design ground up. I don't have interest on desktop user oriented OS like MacOS though.
As title.
A simple method will be having the system requiring the user to login periodically to ensure they are still alive.
However this will impose a large time lag btw the actual death and the email sent. If you shorten the renewal period it will annoys users.
How they do it then?
PS2 is damn cheap nowadays(~$200). Buy a official linux kit from sony(~$100) you get a 40G HDD, 10/100 network card, keyboard, mouse, vga cable and the linux discs(redhat based).
I own one of this myself. It is small, cool and silent. You can use them for any task you can expect from a standard x86 linux.
Btw, it can run netbsd and other exotic OSes as well.
I want a small handheld primarily to remote admin other machines on the net, as well as using it for network testing etc.
SSH and NX/VNC will be the primary applications on the handheld. So these are my requirement:
1)QUERTY keyboard
It is impossible to do anything with moderate amount of textural input without one. Try ssh, email, IM with a keyboardless PDA for a while and you will see.
2)Network connectivity
WiFi is a must. 3G will be essential if outdoor work is needed. Thought 3G data service is basically non-existent in my area now.
3)Linux/*nix
WTF can you do with that crippled mobile windows? I am sure that./ers want more from their PDA then just using outlook and IE:-) *nix gives you a lot more muscle in networking.
Ya, sure size, LCD res, battery life are factors as well, but as long as 1-3 is fullfilled I am tolerative on others:-)
Thats exactly what I am puzzling now.
Obviously that can't meant 3 total processes, even without counting processes running as SYSTEM. Windows itself can't load properly with only 3 user processes allowed.
It cannot be 3 application windows as well. Many programs have more than 1 window while running.
The limitation thus probably means "max 3 windows drawing processes are allowed". Background processes are not counted. This scheme should get around the trouble stated above but it still have loophole: How about someone make a "shell program" that pulls in the exe image into it own context and runs it? It still satisfies the 3-max-windows-drawing-process rule, but now the user can excute as many program as he likes, all within the same context.
This kit allows quick remote access to windows system, without the need to preconfigure anything on the far side before hand. The best thing is that it allows you to use SYSTEM, which is has higher privilege than ADMINISTRATOR.
The tech behind that wall paper sounds like the same as selective interference used on camera lens anti-reflection coating.
In this case the spacing of the 2 reflective layer is tuned to allow maxium transmission of GSM and 3G signal; the reflection wave from first copper layer is 180^ out of phase with the reflection wave from the second copper layer.
IMO this wallpaper will block EVERYTHING and just allows the mobile channels to go through.
how about this?

Non competent tech people are the most annoying

Are You Annoying?

I am much more forgiveful to non-technical people.
What annoy me most is dealing with non-competent technical people. They will completely miss understand the problem, keep on circulating on some basic issue. If you say something they've never heard before(e.g. deeply technical), they will think you are an idiot.
e.g. Last time my ISP fucked the routing table up, users in the office are complaining lots of site like the whole sf.net and some taiwanese subnet are unreachable. Some of the unreachable host are happened to be online games servers.
I complained about the issue via CS hotline. The tech sup sweetheart completely ignore the routing issue keeps on circulating on online gaming.
Have you ever see some "feature" in your mobo that fails when it is running on an OS that is not designed in mind on? (Read: linux, *bsd, or even win2k)
Mobo makers are lazy(read: taiwan cheapo mobo makers). They just don't give a fuck about a mobo that is sold 1 year ago. With a fucking close source BIOS it make patching their system to make it work in new OS a pain in the dick. I guess these are enough reason that BIOS should be open-sourced.
People who still allow IE to run ActiveX/Active Scripting nowadays are insane.
I rather have those f@cking Macromedia Flash and other Java gimmicks non functional than having hijacked and gotta clean up the mess later.
I do found that pulling some fucking wires are far easier than
1) move all funitures
2) get a ladder
3) transport 100s of sqfts of expenisve RF reflective wallpaper
4) and stick them on all walls, windows and doors
People just perfer the hard way don't they?
This really make me wonder why so many people love to have single drive installation.
Not to mention about application start time.(which is'nt much a issue for servers, most daemons are always running). Having swap and working directory(e.g. web root) in the same drive suck big time. I might be ok if the machine is left mostly unused. Having swap and working directory racing on the same HDD under high load is a sure way to get a unresponsive machine.
If the size of your cd archive is large enough, there will be a point that >=1 cd will fail everyday. Archive renewal will then be a continous process of checking/copying/discarding cds.
It's better off to stay with more stable media than continously spending time/money on this IMO.
I face the same probelm as well. My solution is to put the CRT on trolly:-)
As billstewart has suggested, one might make use laptop as serial console or x client. IMO if tty or network have gone envy this might be not so usefull for debugging.
It sounds like a KVM input unit for laptops are the solution. Does anything like that exisit?

The asian gal near the title is part of the offer right?
I am gonna give this survey a ride.

Well, people prefer smaller/tighter pussy.
Giving them a smaller mon(and thus pussy on screen) will just encourage them to surf more.

Fuck, I thought that was the VGA cable getting loose again and tried to fix it.

It is the commercial and region lock that value added the product to $69.
OSS player crippled off those features and thus avail for free.
