If you are a person who cares about open source, you almost certainly know about Firefox.
My point was that if you don't know about free software, you haven't even had the chance to care about it.

People who care about open source are already using it
Only if they know it exists. I think most people don't.

I'm guessing people don't care about the 'free' aspect of it, because nobody is used to paying (directly) for Internet Explorer, Netscape, AOL's keywords or anything else that mainstream public use to find their way around the inter-web.
I wasn't referring to price!

It sure gives me the warm fuzzies, mabye the warmth could spill over a little to others too.
What?! Power per storage capacity? The interesting figures are how much energy it takes to really do something, such as read or write, not just remember what was previously stored. I'm sure they can do the latter without power at all!
not being able to write the music to CD or a portable player
Oh, and it will not be playable through speakers or headphones. Sheesh, I mean, that way people could benefit from something without paying for it, and that surely cannot be a good thing!
How is the speed measured? Blurb says "54 trillion calculations per second", but what kind of calculations is it? Moving of register content? Multiplication of 64 bit floating point numbers?
Many times I have played with the idea to try to find patterns in stock history to aid prediction, but where to find the data set to work with? I'm not prepared to pay for it, of course.
I think the other poster probably mis-read your original post and thought that you were claiming the bullet went down the other sniper's BARREL, not SCOPE.
Now wouldn't _that_ be something?! Perhaps you could even shoot it out again, killing the first shooter with his own bullet.;-)
However, that isn't the case here, as the radiation in question is NOT the result of an annihilation and momentum conservation is satisfied via a slight recoil of the atomic nucleus.
As for the type of radiation, you might be referring to the article. The thread starter, on the other hand, didn't mention the use of any specific radiation source. They might have used what's always around.
And if YOU knew a bit of just slightly more advanced physics, you'd realize that radiation obeys conservation of momentum, just like everything else. It's very very easy to demonstrate direct correlation between radiation spikes measured when the detectors are the same distance from a sample, but 180 degrees apart.
I'm not quite clear on how you say you are placing the detectors. In any case I think we are talking about detecting single particles here. That is, if a particle is is detected in one detector, it is _not_ detected in the other, so neither of them know about when the other detects something. Am I right?
The last message on their mailing list actually arrived 2006-06-08. Their project seems to be slow-going, but they said in March that Chapter 2 was in post production. I'm still hoping.
As long as you keep your airway open when ascending, you won't risk the horribly nasty death of exploded lungs. Our instructors told us to simply say "aaaaaaaahhhh" all the way up, and that would do the trick. I think I can probably remember to say "aaaaaahhhh!" while surfacing if something catastrophic happened to my air supply!
That sounds very reasonable. I'll remember that. On the other hand, I wonder if I at all would manage such an ascent without inhaling water.:-/ I guess I could use some training.
If you have a full breath at 10 meters and dump your weights and swim to the surface without exhaling all your air, it will expand as you reach the surface and your lungs will explode.
Yes, of course, I can see that. I took it like you were supposed to push all air you had out of your lungs as quick as you could, squeezing them empty.

Wow, now let's put into it _all_ functionality we expect from a computer! ;-)
_That_ would be something!
Huh?
Was it by mistake, or did someone request it?

Gah, I hate that word. brrrrr We make content. It sounds awfully wierd.
