Exactly. Mod parent up. A suit can provide pressure via tension all over the body. A full helmet or scuba-like breathing apparatus can provide oxygen. There is no need to pressurize the entire suit, its just a waste of energy and makes things needlessly difficult (less flexible, worrying about tears, etc etc).
Assuming a person did get a small tear on a 'tension suit', the worst that would happen is very bad bruising. The ripped area would be exposed to the environment (low pressure) which would pull the flesh a fair amount outside the suit. Nasty bruising, but not fatal at all and confined to the ripped portion of suit.
BTW, you can program the RCX in a C dialect: Not Quite C (NQC). Or you could reprogram the RCX with BrickOS operating system and code in straight C/C++
Well, I'm glad God isn't my dad. Sure would suck having my dad sacrifice me for somebody else.

Also, I love how Christianity (as you say) has a nice little backdoor in it. "We can't be 100% like Christ, so it is ok to cheat, steal, lie, etc etc sometimes. When you cast blame, it isn't really my fault, because you can't expect me to be 100% like Christ"
My school has been doing this for at least 3 years now. You can check not only how much money is on your account online, but also deposit money. In fact, you can see a detailed (down to every main meal, beverage and side) list of purchases for the last three years.
Oh yes, Big Brother has been around a while. Great job/. for picking up such fresh news.:rolleyes:
You forgot the third option. The people who run our government, the people who hold the power (note, not The People), are run by those that have money and recieve money from others with money (ie. corporations). Our government is run by money, simple.
I agree, it is stealing. But even if the majority of America thought it was ok in this case, it would never change. Corporations are too powerful. They are already in bed with the politicians. And don't give me any crap about "you elected them". Lets be honest, everyone on the ballot is backed by corporations of some type, else they wouldn't be on the ballot.
The thing that truly makes BT great is the way that it shares, not in how the trackers are shared
Bittorrent is old technology. Its swarming, with an updated algorithm. Emule, gnutella, fasttrack, etc already have this. BT was great because it was portable and easily verified (via the sites). Removing the central tracker removes the benefit of BT.

Pfft.
Gotta love /. moderation. Parent is modded...of all things...insightful?
Oh, so you mean that the Bush Administration will have to rig all of the states instead of just one?
Anyhow, Mr. Anonymous Coward, my school's site is here.
The rest of your comment is to nonsensical to try and reply to, so I won't.
Oh yes, Big Brother has been around a while. Great job /. for picking up such fresh news. :rolleyes:
I never cease to be amazed at how fast Godwin's Law is invoked at /.

Who says he isn't one of the editors?

Aye. Good catch. If i had points, i'd mod it down
Roland Piquepaille...Nothing to see here...move along...
Damn slashdot modding. This parent isnt flamebait. Mod it up.
/* I for one welcome our new Linux overlords... */
I want to personally thank you for this comment. I did the exact same thing, and am equally glad that I didn't buy it.

So much for a government for The People.

Heh. Mod parent up +1 Truthful
Three cheers for crappy /. moderating!
Oh, so is Copyright infringement...
And yes, of course, im karma whoring right now.

Pheww! For a second there I thought you were serious!

When AMD comes out on top in the next few years. What are the AMD fanboys going to do then? Hard to be a fanboy of corporation that is dominating. ;)
