Spatial will still be there. You can even change that behaviour from the configuration dialogue (how about that?). I assume that the split mode can be turned of by gconf or a configuration dialogue. If not, I won't be very happy.
How about the megatons of fuel used per launch? Where does that come from, btw? & is it limitless?
Pretty much. Its just hydrogen and oxygen. Viewed differently its just water and electricity. With the right plant you can make megatons of the stuff quite cheaply.
Lets say a big launch can throw 10000kg into the orbit of the ISS. To do that you need a big launcher and if it fails you lose the whole thing. A small launcher throws 1000kg into the same orbit. Assuming a zero failure rate one big launch should be cheaper than ten small launches.
But you can get better, faster at the small launches, because you might be doing one a week. Now thats a nice pattern if you think about it. You could stack the vehicle on Monday, roll it to the pad on Tuesday, test the payload on Wednesday, etc. Then light the fuse on Friday and repeat the whole process next week.
So overall its more expensive that way but if you take failures into account you might just be ahead.
Can we afford such massive expenditures of energy on such a frequent basis? And for how long? Is this limitless or what? I mean, I love sci-fi too but unfortunately have become aware of the fact that resources are not limitless....
A lot of the costs of maintaining the launch system go by the day and hour anyway, not per launch.
I installed mediawiki at my workplace and management were horrified. They don't want it. They want to control the information. Not just anybody with access to the LAN.
This module installs a tool which installs modules directly from cpan but enforces the conventions of the native environment. So if there is a perl module from the debian repositories called kludge and the same module is available directly from cpan, the cpan module would understand that they were the same basic thing, and know how to relate the different versions.
I backup to portable USB hard disks. My backup machine is my eeepc 701. It runs ubuntu. I use this machine because it has fast USB and wifi interfaces. I have written a short shell script which runs on the eeepc. It uses rsync through ssh to copy user data from all the machines in the house to the external disk. I ignore the single windows machine in the house. If its user wants it backed up they can store their files on the server.
I initially tried backing up through a workstation runing netbsd but I found the USB interface to be too slow, by many orders of magnitude.
They need to hire a 13-year-old kid to do their web site because clearly NASA engineers aren't capable.
Well Randall Munroe left NASA because his webcomic was more profitable. I work for a big aerospace company and they have some stupid game you can download and run through the intranet but none of our aerospace engineers had a hand in it because its a marketing thing and I can guarantee those people have never heard of operating systems.
Okay the google.com search for that query points to both Amazon and Target. Did target actually give a page containing those search terms to the google bot? Why would they do that?
Is there a big generic library of "stuff people buy" which SEO companies use to send traffic to their clients sites?
It was true fifty years ago, and it's still true today: If I have access to the hardware, you're screwed.
But will that still be the case when computers consist of isolated atoms embedded in a diamond lattice? The equipment required for hacking will certainly be different.
I suppose once the application becomes local tracing the submission becomes easier. There might be two ISPs in town and two newspapers. So there are two submission URLs to be searched for and finding them might not be too hard. And local laws vary. In some places it might be easy to get a law to search for a few URLs in proxy server logs.

They should use Amaya.
As long as you can configure around it we can both be happy. Seriously, this is an article about the default (out of the box) state of a check box.

Its handy if you have to run windows at work but you need unix services.
When are the engineers and scientists supposed to learn from all of this; on the weekend?
Root cause analysis takes months on complex systems. If you have to stop your launches due to an unknown issue then you do that.
Of course by delivering smaller components to orbit you pass some of the integration cost onto people in orbit, and their hours are very expensive.

Oh and to answer the question I use ext2 on the external disks. I don't see a need for journalling on a backup device.

+2 I think.
Same here with google.com.au but target.com is first if I specify google.com

Just don't go to England. Extradition doesn't apply to civil law.

We need old-fashioned journalists that report facts with verifiable sources. Not the cheap, Web 3.0, crowdsourced crap.
How about we not get the cheap cut and paste crap which our old-fashioned news sources give us now.
There could be anything on wikileaks. I think it all needs to be refused classification.
