My toothbrush has been charged wirelessly for years. So, they just cranked up the power? Hmmm
not quite. what that kind of wireless charger uses is inductive coupling, using coils and using a magnetic field to induce a current in device's coil.
this method uses radio waves, which is a more interesting trick and works over a longer range (inductive charging is limited to a few inches at most with reasonably-sized coils).
still, this isn't delivering an enormous amount of power yet. about enough to drive a cellphone charger (a few volts and a few hundred milliamps). still useful, but not enough to run anything major off.
Despite the fact the Bloc Quebecois just suffered a defeat
Bloc? the Parti Quebecois (a provincial political party. the Bloc is a federal party.) took a big hit in the provincial election, but nothing has happened with the Bloc, AFAIK.
Motherboards are not made of polymers or silicon. They're made of PCB which is made from substrate
make the PCB out of a flexible substrate and electrically conductive polymer, rather than a rigid substrate and copper (or whatever metal(s) they're using).
The bad news is that future electronics will be even flimsier than they currently are
actually, this would make them more durable. if I'm reading this correctly, you could practically bend a motherboard in half and it would still work fine.
though i tend to see the components on a board break (or break off) more often than the board itself, so it may be a moot point.
i remember some guy throwing around a 1,000,000x1,000,000 (presumablely bugged, as if my numbers are right (no promises at this hour), that would be a 27TB image) as that would be image some time ago. caused BSODs on every windows system i tried it on. never got around to seeing what would happen on my linux box as it got taken down.
unless you're planning on treating it as WORM memory, flash has somewhat limited lifespan. the flash we're using at my collage for our integrated processing stuff is rated for 1 million write/erase cycles, but the datasheet doesn't even mention MTBF.
this anaolgy is so invalid that it borders on trolling.
CD and a record are fundamentally incompataible due to the way they work.
an iTunes-downloaded AAC file and a non-iPod AAC-compatile music player are not fundamentally incompatable. they're supposed to work together, but this CRAP prevents that.
As long as they take their insulin, they should b affeted just the same as a non-diabetic.
aside from the fact that is nigh-impossible to keep things pefectly balanced, especially with type-1. injected insulin can't fully replicate the effect of natural insulin.
that is the optimal, but you don't always have 2 people trained in 2-man CPR available.
since you don't have 2 people, you have to make do with one. the question that is coming up is how best to divide the efforts (ventilation vs. circulation) and it's looking like circulation is more important in the typical length of time you'd need to be using CPR.
when i did my CPR refresher a last year, the instructor (a former military medic) reccomended 80 compressions/2 breaths.
it used to be about 10 cents cheaper per litre. it went up during the massive spike last summer, and hasn't gone back down for some reason, unlike gas prices, though they just went back up above the magic 1 dollar mark yesterday.
eh, it's more of an example on the differance between languages. appearently, extremely long sentances are proper form in latin, but is not proper in english for some reason.
i personally don't particularly mind it, i have a tendancy to sometimes do it myself, with sentances a few lines long, though not to the extent of the classmate i mentioned.

They also have "The Immovable Object" (a shield) to compliment, sold from the same guy. i haven't yet seem what happens when they meet. =D

As long as you're a skinny geek and not a fat bearded geek, you're all set.
i dunno about the fat part, but beards seem to be rather popular with the women around here for some reason.

it won't make it better, it will keep it the same as it was, which i personally feel is a good idea, as it just works.

general public understands it or not. What matters is whether the legal system understands it.
what do you think a jury is created from?

No! That is an old myth about linux. Have you tried it recently ?
i wouldn't put it past HP to deliberately include hardware that doesn't have Linux drivers.
yes, that is not one of my particular favorite parts of our history, but you have to look at things that happened afterwards.
for starters, said war measures act no longer exists and was replaced by a more limited version, as your linked article mentions.
also, said powers were temporary, in the real sense, unlike certain other US laws i could mention.
4. We should fear the backwards conservatives?
no. it just means that i will be watching this bill very closely in case it gains conservative support, which i don't feel is completely out there.
there are few things i fear more than a bill like this gaining majority support.
if it does get the Tories support, my MP is gonna be getting a bag or two full of mail.

MS will have to adopt open standards instead or be left out.

Etch your digital data into diamond, and then tell me you've got a problem with the longevity of the medium.
regardless of quotes, diamonds are not forever.

Here's an easy way to paste a letter into a form and e-mail Congress about it.
better yet, write an actual paper letter. a sack of mail is harder to ignore than a disk of email.

0 preignition and you can turn the boost way up on a tiny engine.
zero preignition? Diesels run on preignition. they don't have spark plugs.
still, i am a large fan of diesels, now if only i could figure out why diesel is 8 cents a litre more expensive than gas at the moment...
i believe that was decided in this case and this one and is also mentioned here.
It is a cat-and-mouse game.
and the mice have the cats massively outnumbered, though the cats have more money, so that might level the field.
