I got through the YDL website and just found out that : Yellow Dog Linux v4.0 offers 32-bit support for USB-G3s, G4s, G5 Power Macs. If I decided to buy a G5, I would expect it to work in 64-bit mode, not just in 32-bit mode. Some kind of strange since the G5 64-bit instruction set seems to be working with Linux. I found at IBM DevelopperWorks how to set up a 64-bit mode (Y-HPC Kernel), but it still seems to be beta...
I always wondered why there could be piracy concerns at all and why releasing things earlier could prevent piracy.
In my opinion, a DVD box set is something you want as an object in itself, you just don't want the poor copies of the movies. The way the box looks, the way it smells (!) makes it an object of devotion, something you realy want to have in your collection. And I don't think that I'm the only one that puts more value in the box than in the movies it holds.
For piracy concerns, I don't see the point. The films have already been released illegaly, of course in the unmodified form but surely also in the new form (if this wasn't the case, Lucas wouldn't mind about an early release), and I don't see why people that have the choice of copying or buying it would change their mind because the legal form is released earlier
If anyone choosed to buy it, he would download it from the net first, then buy it when it's released. If another person choosed just to copy it, he surely wouldn't buy it because it is released earlier, but this is just my opinion...
Does the sound power depend on the size of the plant ? It could be interesting to try that on trees, I just imagine putting up a festival in my garden and using the two trees I have as baffles...
I live in a small town, Switzerland. My car (I share it with a dozen friends) is always open and the key is in the letter box. But there is nothing inside, people can open the car and look inside, they wont find anything, the only thing the burglars could take is the radio (which is old) and the car itself.
Same with my house, the door is always open. And burglars couldn't make much of what they'll find inside. I have an old 1970's TV and a heavy and not so recent computer. The rest is just made of old things without much value (except sentimental value, of course). The only thing for which I would be angry is if burglars steal my coffee machine, I would do anything to take it back!
Anyway, my insurance will still pay for my stuff if the door is not closed, so I just don't mind and have in fact never been stolen anything.
Well, as a biologist, I always wondered why my peers called the non coding DNA "junk DNA". I think it's non sense. They believe that 98% is junk DNA, that it just cost energy to replicate? I better think of it as something we not yet understand. DNA has a highly repeating structure that can be fearly compared to a crystal. Exited, it shines, DNA emits photons. And it has been proven that some drugs higher the numbers of photons emitted.
Some indians from Amazonia used drugs to "understand" the way the world works. In their deliria, they saw two intimately linked ladder. Indeed, they were the first people to see DNA, hundreds of years ago. This vision is common. In Australia, arborigenous people have drawn DNA long ago.
Could this be one of the message that ET wants us to hear? Personnaly, I think that it's just a message from the nature, to remind us that we are still living things, in a small world...
My company's admin has set the passwords to expire every two month and the passwords have to have a length of at least 9, including 5 characters (from which one has to be upper case), 3 digits and a special character, like _*-... It gives you something like _Sdfgz456. Last but not least, the server keeps the last 10 passwords, so that you can only reverse to the first you used after 20 month. grrr...

I imagine the lucky owner of this *cool* device coming back to his car at night, drunk, and getting burned by trying to open his own car...
