So no worries about special methanol packs or anything.
Besides, you can make your own methanol, after all...

No, you must be new here, if it was an internal NASA affair, we would have had it sooner....

Sadly, the video did not recieve the wide appraise it expected, and the golden globe went instead to "ET foam home".

Wow. I just used pubchem last week, and I use it often, for doing work at my school.
How can they take away something like this? All that would do is limit my learning, and my classmates learning. And we wouldn't pay for this stuff, it's expected to be free.
Anyway, I can generate most of this stuff for free with all the chemistry gunk I have on my school linux cluster.
How is their arguement valid?! This is like taking away an open source operating system like linux, because it has the possibility of interfering with Microsoft's business? Absolutely wacko.
"User: "So, uh, why did you decide to make a word processor that uses 80 megs of RAM and bogs down anything less than a 2 GHz machine?" Programmer: "Why? Why? Muahahha.... BECAUSE I CAN."
Using more resources than necessary to complete a task doesn't demonstrate any sort of talent. "... Hey, stop dissing Emacs. Did I insult YOUR text editor?!
"A recent IRC conversation..."
Yes, we should cite those as very reliable sources.... Because everything you read on IRC is true.... Did I mention I'm a 18 year old female from your general area?
I, personally, have sent in my communicator badge and phaser. I will no longer be part of this Federation! Rarrrghhh!

I like my digital camera very much, but I concur that some serious firmware haxoring should take place.
For instance, the exposure time is normally limited on most digital cameras, probably because any more exposure time would show the huge mass of CCD "fuzzies" static that would accumulate. But it would be a nice feature, and currently impossible with installed firmware.
Also, easy hacks might include "night vision" type settings, and also perhaps mp3/ogg and movie playback, for kicks and giggles. Or maybe inbuilt editing tools that surpass the closed firmwares.
But also what the open firmware would allow for, is that many new cameras can be used as webcams... in a WINDOWS environment, but rarely on the mac and certainly none for Linux. Open firmware would allow people to more easily develop webcam software of this type.
Great, maybe they even have data on the average slashdotter; for instance, for every 3 people that read the article, a hurricane destroys northern Taiwan.... now notice northern Taiwan isn't being hit by hurricanes... CONSPIRACY!!! PUT ON THE TINFOIL HATS!!!
ooooh as we all know, the timex sinclair was also the first real computer of LINUS TORVALDS.... so it MUST be worth saving! SAVE IT FOR YOUR OWN NERDY GOODNESS!!!
That way, when linux is the only OS to survive world war IV, we'll have a keepsake of it's creators memories.

Well, we could see early market share going predominately Intel Corp. Which would make them synonyms, really.

*sigh* But think of how horribly depressing that would be...
Then you're still probably well off with Nvidia's quatro.
Not much of a point; Even Carmack himself mentioned in his QuakeCon keynote that it wasn't going to even be in Q4, so what reason for it to be in Q3A?
No, but it is disturbing because Walt Disney DOESN'T HAVE a tombstone, he had himself frozen...
Not you... you must have had bad lag to the server! BWAHAHAHAHA!!!
> Its not the sex.
Of course not, this is slashdot; we don't get that kind of stuff here...

The point would be that the image would be unique. Which that would not be. I'm sure it would look nice though.

I wonder how many slashdot users it takes to take down a site by only download 1x1 blank space images... Nah, we can do it!
Damn! I guess this means I won't be able to play my ink cartridges in my DVD player any more...

I'll be keeping emacs, thank you very much.

I'm glad you included pizza; They don't call rackmount servers "pizza box" servers for nothing ;) ... fit a mini-atx nicely :D
WHOA Ok, who else read "Monitor U.S. Erections" the first time?!
