"The aircraft is larger and heavier than an average hummingbird, but is smaller and lighter than the largest hummingbird currently found in nature." --- I don't really get that sentence, can someone explain?
How about a power supply they can use to charge their small devices? All you need for a basic power supply are a transformer, some diodes, resistors and capacitors.
Or a small voltage divider bias BJT amplifier? a couple capacitors, an NPN transistor, and some resistors. Could be used to amplify music coming from an iPod and show the principals of amplification.
As an Amateur Radio operator, I have looked at several articles including the one linked from/., and the one on NY Times. Does anyone have an idea about what frequencies they are speaking of?
Thanks
In order to assure readability in the future, you need to provide not only the data in a ( format that will survive 25 years) robust format, but also the means in which to access the data. i.e., if you save the data on a medium like a flash drive (dont know if it will last 25 years, we'll assume it will) but the computer or something that will read the data, and a power supply, and written instructions on how to access the data. That is my grandiose plan for future readability.
You need to no longer do sit-ups. Do crunches, and do about 200-300 per day. Mountain Climbers (look it up).. do about 2-3 minutes. Push-ups.. good for upper body, and continue at about 60 per day. Several kinds of jumping jacks, do as many as you can for about 10 minutes per day. And as we did in football, up-downs, do about 5 minutes per day. You should be sufficiently tired afterwards. Lower your calorie intake, drink LOTS of water and you will increase your metabolism, lose body fat while increasing muscle mass.:-)
The problem is (and I'm sorry for mentioning it) is capitalism, where there is a potential to make money... all else (at least until recently with green being a good moneymaker) goes out the window. I know I'm not the only one who is seeing this.
Please comment:)
Is it me.. or was this article HORRIBLY difficult to read? (excluding the ads)

It seems that the world's countries, (at least the majority) have come to some sort of realization. The fact that the population is growing almost beyond what the earth can support. Why do all these countries want to surveil the populace? With the guise that it is for our own protection and just to catch the criminals, it seems there is something grave to hide from us,/. included. I, for one... do NOT welcome our "new overlords". For a long time the laws have been against our free speech (in the US). With each little step we can say less and less, oh sure you can say anything that is on your mind, unless it offends joe blow in XXXXX state. That's amendment #1, and they ARE attacking #2 as I write this. (Obama I am speaking about now) Oh sure they will start with only 1 gun per month... needless to say the national guard/army/us forces and the populace are NOT evenly matched, so even if we do decide to have a militia, we cannot defend ourselves. It has been brought up I believe 3 times at a United Nations meeting to de-arm the United States (thankfully it has been voted down every time). I am neither a republican nor a democrat, but if we get someone in office who wants to sweet talk every nation in the world we will lose our ability to defend ourselves, and there goes #2 off the list.
I say to all, (this is my take on a dire situation) IF we lose the right to bear arms... will the National Guard be the ones to take our firearms away?.. no.. I don't believe so. For example, if you and joe blow from XXXXX have been hunting all your life, and there is an order to remove weapons from your household, he might just "not see" your weapons. I do think however, since the UN has been prevalent in most countries that are a part, the "UN" will come to your house and take your firearms. Swedish, French, etc, etc troops will the be ones coming to your door. My friends I only say this now because I am worried about the state of our Nation. I'm an avid/.'er and I care about the state of our country. I bring the second amendment up because without it we are no more protected from our government than any other nation in this post 9/11, global economy.

The higher the frequency, the lower the wavelength. In ham radio: 160 meters = 1800-2000 kHz, where as 10 meters = 28000 to 29700 kHz
Thanks for clearing that up for me.

Already /.ed... jeeze. With 250,000 "users" they should be able to handle a small slashdotting, right?
This picture has been on the net for at least a couple of years now.

wow that should be modded insightful AND funny
I believe it is intended as Mac OSX is NOT (Linux-like OR able to run Windows app)
Well if you read TFA you would read that MS will offer backward compatibility in 7 using virtualization.
wow.. all i have to say is one big DUUUH!!!
I concur, WTF?!?!?!
I hope those conductors are insulated, if not you have a capacitor!!
Absolutely, especially in our time security should have been second only to the airplanes ability to fly.
