Search your local cleanups for motherboards with integrated gfx.
Or find some really old PCI vga videos cards on cleanups.
The key here isn't so much power usage. It's reliability.
And you DON'T want a card that needs a fan or large heatsinks.
A cool running old pci card (s3 trio, ati mach64 etc) is going
to still last longer than a hot running card with or without a
heatsink (eg nvidia 5200 etc)
Use a cheap vga switcher to switch between multiple boxes.
This method is best for quick local logins & maintinance.
When your machine has a problem, you don't want to be
rooting round with serial links etc.
I see it as the Aliens/Eggs are in fact just a bio weapon. Even the ship - With it's built in alien was manufactured for war.
This ship was perhaps hit in part of the bio egg weapons storage and infected the crew/pilot of the ship.
ALSO - The TRUE aliens that created these bio eggs - May be Acid blood. As may well their enemy(s) they produced them for.
And infection/gestation is very rapid - And can locate itself anywhere in the body. BUT for humans - There's not much acid to gestate in, And it's only located in the stomach. Hence the slower gestation and the only target area being the stomach (via mouth) for infection - It knows it must keep the recipient alive long enough to gestate with what little acid is available.
Use standard commodity parts for easy replacement/reconstruction.
ie. Consumer grade writable disc's and external hard drives.
Backup Home data to DVD/BR/CD regularly (Monthly)
Backup Bulk data with 3 Hard disks!!!!
1) Use one Live HD
2) Use one to backup Live
3) Use ANOTHER to backup Live again
The Reason?
If your backup is large, You will probably need to erase the target drive.
At this point you are VERY vulnerable.
With your only backup erased,
You had better hope your live drive doesn't fail while backing up again.
Or you may accidentally delete something from the live drive WHILE backing up.
With a 3rd hard drive, At least you can recover from your last backup if your current backup somehow nukes itself.
Dangers....
1) Don't have a live drive and think your safe with another live drive synced, You really want to keep hard drive backups IN
STORAGE. If it's live it can and probably will die. It's just a matter of time or circumstances. This goes for raid too.
2) This is home storage, So 6/12 month hard disk backups should root out any bit rot or hard disk seizures.

Why not?
Please note the following on that (1st) page........
"Keep in mind that the people listed below were only admitted to the county jail and that they are innocent until proven guilty"
America is really FUCKED IN THE HEAD to be posting mugshot pictures of people who have not even been found guilty of any crime (WTF!)
And are those the addresses of these people..... YES THEY ARE!
Jesus Fucking H Christ. Posting pictures and Addressed of people not yet found guilty.
If I was unduly (mistake made) arrested and had my mug shot for all to see as if I were ALREADY a criminal. I would be FUCKING PISSED OFF.
Correct me if the status of code to audit has changed etc....
Now Australia has 100 of these fuckers on order...
We can't audit the code.
We know it has kill switch code in it.
Now china has info on this fighter.
(Possibly even the kill code)
If Australia needs to defend against China - We are fucked. (We also need around 20-30 subs but thats another story!)
Cue the 1st scenes of battlestar galactica where we go to intercept and are blown out of the sky!
I hope Australia tells the US to go shove it's now worthless planes up it's ass.
(AND we don't buy any at the same time - Stupid politicians would still buy based on previous contract - Not current security/usefulness)
Using the Wii remote (or Webcam) and headband with some IR leds seems the more natural way to do this.
You must have the head tracking for true 3d.
Using glasses with two separate images is just "Stereoscopic" vision - Not full 3d at all.
Im not sure why there is so much attention to Stereoscopic images. To me Headtracking is 80% of 3d vision, 10% is the stereoscopic part and 10% is other (Balance etc)
I don't know what others are doing, But I just purchased a standard DVD player that had both USB and SDCard slots.
(Some cheap AWA model from BigW) It plays DivX4/5. I have a few dvd's - but like many others, download some TV content like Dr Who and Battlestar (Boo Hyperdrive is canned). I simply copy the recent showing to USB drive. Plug into said DVD player and away I go.
IMHO "Discs" are to go the way of the dodo. Considering 1gb usb drives are now $10au and you can either have a few of them or just erase/copy/play again when you want. Distributors could easily manufacture Dongled ROM's or whatever to "Protect" their raw content. And transcoding to lower res (aka DivX) is fair use IMHO.
I certainly don't need/want Blu-ray or HD-DVD. As Im happy with the quality of DVD or Convenience of DivX (Kinda like the way many people are happy with mp3. ie. It's good enough.)
Which is probably a good thing to do BEFORE Linux is as mainstream as windows. Get these Viruses & stuff out there so the measures to protect against them mature and are built into Linux ready to go on default installs for the masses.
Well, It didn't stop "absolut vodka" from taking "absolut(e) beach" to court.

Im not sure what happened to them....... But their websites are not up. So perhaps absolut vodka DID get their way.

The fact that appropriate (Spineless) Australian agencies did not step in to help doesn't say much for Australia either.
I found using "User Agent Switcher" in firefox - With some JAVA websites would crash(exit) firefox.
Depending on what "Info/Versions" are reported back - Alters the way java is delivered back to you.
Hence sometimes causing the wrong java app to be sent - And crashing the browser/java plugin.
(Or something to that effect!)
So it wasn't the website crashing firefox, It was the Missreported Java/Plugin.
This is probably dumb,
If patents kill "software", Couldn't we re-define
sofware?
ie
I not writing software, I am writing a mathematical manipulation string.
Math can't be patented right?
Me looks down at keboard.....IBM
After fliping it over it reads:
Part No 1391401
yada yada
Model M
IBM Corp 1984
Salvaged from IBM 286 PS2 computer.
And still works perfectly.
