It all comes down to making sure you have the bandwidth and QoS, which is something that would won't find on your average home cable or DSL connection.
Maybe not "average", but certainly this works with Linux.
Even its proponents agree that it would only delay global warming by a handful of months, at a cost of trillions of dollars. Kyoto opponents, such as myself, are generally not opposed to fighting global warming: we're opposed to fighting it in silly non-cost-effective means which are more public relations than results. For a trillion dollars, I'd far rather see Kyoto abandoned and a thousand coal plants converted to nuclear. Think about those carbon savings for a moment--uff da!
Sometimes I read this and shake my head. Do you actually read the stuff you write???
Kyoto is about reducing greenhouse emission in industrialized countries by whatever way you want, right? So why not ratify Kyoto and do exactly what you say (coal->nuclear) to you meet your target? *Most* of the emissions is caused by burning coal/gas/oil to heat homes and produce electricity! And then you can fund biodisel projects (ie. develop large scale technologies) and reduce CO2 to almost nil and be independent of mideast oil at the same time. WOW! Now don't tell me coutries like US could not do this over a period of 45 years with positive economic impact and *create* thousands of local jobs!
Kyoto purpose is NOT about immediate reduction of *world-wide* green house emissions, but by developing new technologies in countries like US, Canada, UK, France, Germany, Russia, etc... you pave the way for these technologies to be used in 3rd world countries that cannot support such research. Zambia is *not* going to fund a Fusion Reactor project! They can't! But if a fusion reactor is developed, it benefits all.
But I guess we'll see where CO2 levels will jump to in a decade or two, with its side-effects... and then people will start talking about how meeting Kyoto would/could/should/might have been a good thing. It will be then that global warming will cost millions of jobs and trillions of dolars.
It will take a lot of time, effort and money to bring the AIDS crisis under control in Africa. President Bush was wise (for once) to commit billions to fighting the problem there. He was also wise to recommend that the program have an abstinence element to it. The Uganda program that contained an abstinence element was unusually successful in fighting AIDS in that country. I only wish he had lived up to his commitment by actually funding it at the level he promised.
The money Bush earmarked was for US drug companies to provide drugs to Africa. This is why it is just a money grab by the pharmaceuticals. People need education, not drugs.
And preeching abstinence alone does not work. People are hard-wired to have sex. Period. You must provide complete knowledge of *how* HIV is spread. Telling people that abstinence will prevent HIV without telling them the whole story is almost useless.
Rockets are crap. Until we get something better, don't count on space travel being anything but expensive.
Using rockets to get to space is like using vaccuum tubes to make a computer! Until we get something like a transtor (equivelent for space travel), space travel will be expensive.
BTW, they only got to space boundary, NOT to orbit. The speed difference is about 8x or about 64x more kinetic energy. The difference is the same as cycling and going 100mph. You can't go 100mph on a bike!
Good point but, seems to me that a small, disposable propulsion rocket would take care of that. One small push and voila! Instant meteor shower for us surface-dwellers.
This is what Progress supply rockets did for Mir, BTW. Supplied fuel, food, air, water, etc.. to the station and took garbage back and burned up in the atmosphere. Cheap and effective.
I must be the only person in NA who does not own a MTB, it seems that is the only type of bike that people know here.... Almost like the SUV craze (suspension while riding on the road? Sure, if I want to hammer 20 - 30% of my output in the shocks).
On a flat road, I don't think you are hammering nearly as much into shocks, especially in high cadence mode where shocks are *not* moving.
Anyway, MTB with dual suspension is great for roads, at least around here:) Much of the roads around here have potholes, and I prefer to waste some energy into the shocks, just so my back doesn't become the shock absorber.
This is not SUV mentality, it is a comfort mentality. I would say it is a difference between a Ferrari and a Cadillac. If you want SUV mentality, see this big bike
Professionals go at about 50km/h for short distances (<60km). About 40km/h for long distances (>100km). This is on a road bike on flat terrain. But they usually travel in packs (peloton). You take a mountain bike, and the increased air drag (ie. your form on the bike), friction from tires and that drops you to about 30km/h with no wind. 40km/h tailwind and you should get up to 40km/h on a MTB (this is no relative wind in this case). "Normal" MTBs can't go faster than that because they don't have the gears and are not designed for the speed (internal friction, fat tires, heavy, etc).
On my no so great MTB, I average about 28km/h (no wind) over 2 hours (no stopping). You can't go much faster on a MTB over long period of time without help from the weather.
Short distances, like <5km, you can push to 45+km/h on MTB:)
Bush is a puppet. Period. It is Cheney that does the actual policy decisions. Remember that it is always better to rule from behind the throne, than on it.
There have been plenty of studies in dendrochronology that prove this and that while the earth might be heating up, its nothing the planet can't handle.
Thousand+ died in Haiti because they almost deforested their entire island. When the rain came (only tropical storm there), there was nothing to stop the water so it went down the mountains and though the cities.
Of course, no one in Haiti is going to do much about it. They will just continue to chop down what trees remain for charcoal, etc.. They are digging their own graves. This is not a troll, this is reality.
Weather prediction != climate prediction. Weather prodictions suck for anything more than 48hours. Climate predictions suck for anything less than 5 years.
Global warming is about cliamatic change, NOT about the temperature on the weekend.
The reason it's "coming back" is that human activity has a negligible effect upon it. The "hole" is a cyclical phenomenon more closely related to solar activity than anything else.
LOL!!! Insighful?
CFCs? Ok, guess you never heard of those. CFCs only managed to destroy the ozone layer. True, the "hole" is over Antarctica, but ozone has thinned *everywhere*. We only needed to use CFCs for another 25 years, and now we wouldn't have an ozone hole, we would have ozone spots and sunburns in 60 seconds flat!
The nice thing about these maps is that they are meant to be used down to the street level and even let you select every available address in America.
Geography is not about street maps. It uses topographical maps. Street maps are vector maps while topographical maps are raster, *always*. This has to do with the nature of the measurements.
You can get topographical maps down to 30m resolusion though (NASA shuttle radar project a few years ago, now at USGS here
I can't wait to get a RadioShark, record Coast to Coast A.M. every night, and then listen to the cavalcade of freaks and weirdos on my iPod while driving, walking, exercising and so on.
Already do that. Hook up a regular radio (headphones) to Line-In (or Mic if no Line-In), and run
sox -t ossdsp/dev/dsp/c2cam/`date -I`.gsm
Run that from crontab each night... Then you have all the shows and the radio is like $15 not $70... At least the "server" gets 2% CPU usage at night:)

I think there is too much tar in that pit. You have just tarpitted your server....

Does this mean Swiss Alps will run on Linux?
The question is, can we handle it?

Hey, natural selection might not work very well for the human race anymore, but it doesn't mean it is non-existent.
So what happens when the HD dies? I guess this is how MS will be selling a new version of XP to the same customer every few years.

You know what, that idea would actually work.
