If it is anything like our mill it can't do wood. Our blades and mill are too powerful, and instead of taking out a carving it takes chunks out. The problem comes when you try to cut out either a very strong wood or a weak one. If it is too strong it will pull parts of the wood with it when you cut, but too soft will actually "melt" the wood, or cut huge chunks even with really low RPM.
Your ISP doesn't keep track of how much your pulling in and out? How do you think the **AA figure who is "trading files" and who isn't? The people taking in gigs of space and uploading almost as much are considered suspects. They only know how much pipe you use based on what the ISP provides.
This might be considered if all of a sudden we have huge populations using much of the air available, and making it possible that others can't breathe. From what I see, they are just applying a tax on something that uses the limited spectrum. When all of the space for the spectrum gets filled, who do you think the people will be pissed at for not managing that? The government. They are just trying to help manage it before it gets out of hand. (Especially in a space conservative place like japan. Image in everyone decided to use their equipment at the same time on the same frequency. That would be quite a jam)
Actually, brain activity would likely be at a peak during a dream stage. Hypnosis would be much better, where you can be told to basically "think of nothing" and come as close as possible.
This isn't about effieciency or anything like that, it is about innovation. This was just something that I hadn't seen (at least that was implemented in a usefull manner). Sure they don't having it working like Google has thiers, but Google has been around for a while, and they aren't exactly stupid over there. They are the best in the biz. I'm just saying this is like a new type of PDA came out with a display that went wirelessly to your glasses. The quality will be poor at the start, but it is the starting point that is really important. Imagine if Google decided to make something like this, where their searching was optionally shown as a 3d model. You could find parent links, and not just be researching the same sight over and over because someone else linked to it from their page and you got a hit from that. The graph shows "oh this is just a link back to that page" and it is intuitively obvious.
On one hand this is obviously potentionally spyware. I mean, it logs everything you do, and advises you to check out such and such. However:
Did anyone check out that graphical linking system? It was genious. You go to a seed link, and it spiders from there. Graphically representing the links each time. So you search for "frogs" and it starts a "frogs" seed. Then a few branches come out, such as "frog legs", "cromwell's frog" and "horned frog". Then those branch new links as well. And it just keeps going. At first I said "this is stupid, I searched for a broad term, and only get 3 links?" but then I watched as it added sublinks to main links, and was very impressed.
It seems some of you are confused as to what this is. From what I see, it using pressure sensors, and position sensors, combines them, and produces a 3D image (similar to one in a CAD program). This image can then be used later on, either to look at the object with out it being there, or to have as a design. This is not in any way the other way around. Virtual objects do not put FORCE on the GLOVE. You will not "feel" any thing from it. That would not work.
Lets look at this from a physics standpoint. It is a glove with wires coming out. There are no air bags to fill, no rockets to fire, and nothing to push your hand with. If you look at the picture you can see that. From this, we can assume the glove can not put force on your hand to move it. So no, VR sextoys, or objects won't really come from this.
What will come from this is faster design. A sculptor who is very good at making models in clay, may very well be horrible with CAD. They can model in real clay, using this glove, and it will make a CAD of the actual design he made. They can now mass produce exactly what he made. This basically flips the way they make cars around. From what I've seen, they model it, then make a clay mockup.

There are a few of those. The most well known is the (Twin?) River Oaks in Houston. I couldn't find the video of it again, but it is the one Lewis Black is famous for complaining about. Here is a link to some of the double starbucks phenom. (http://www.personal.psu.edu/users/i/d/idg101/st arbucks/)
He still had a point. Could a spam group find your number from a large database (great example with the DNCL) and start using public numbers from that area code?
Worse yet. Imagine if hackers could get your personal contact numbers, then use this to place calls from numbers you trust. They could make a program that calls just like a worm. Find your contacts, call them, find their contacts call them...

6 might mean one on each side (imagine if the blimp was a cube). One on the top, bottom, both sides, front, and back ends. This would allow them to basically determine the position and orientation at the same time. Might help in stearing it, might help in finding it.
Daleks are to ROBOTS as Gandalf is to WIZARD. That is the proper analogy. They can use a different type of robot with no permission, but Tolkien estate DOES own Gandalf and the rights to use him.
My grandmother was a librarian, and I know quite a few of them myself. A very liberal bunch, very much anti-censorship. Which is slightly odd considering that they are older ladies, and they all seem to be on the same side. Sadly, it is true about the funding. The government requires some type of blocking to get certain grants/funds for public libraries...
"That level is currently set to the equivalent of a computer using a Pentium 3 processor running at 650MHz, state of the art in 1999 but considered feeble today. "
That will also mean any of the current generation of gaming devices as well wouldn't it? If I recall the xbox has 800 or 850 mHz, and the gamecube and ps2 aren't far behind. I imagine PDA's would also fall in this area, and some of the newer generation of cell phones?
Actually, the speed of light in vacuum is exactly 299,792,458 m/s (metres per second)[side note: the meter is defined by the speed of light, the space light travels in 1/299792458 of a second], or 186 000 miles per second. Which is 1116000 miles per minute, or 669600000 miles per hour.
now if they cut the price of this to less than 200 dollars, I might consider it. As of now, I'll stick with my giant 200 Gig harddrive based computer-mp3 player in my car.

Look for yourself:
IE6 has 72% market share as of 2004
No, the phrase "influence legislation" refers to the lobbying in congress, not to the legal defense of persons.
IE 6.0 got a 4 out of 5 on their reviews site. Click on "more reviews" and it lists all their reviews.
