That is an interesting point that you've brought up.
It is completely opposite way of thought than how American's have previously thought about property. For example how many of you grew up and left doors unlocked to your house or car all the time. I for one never locked my car doors at home nor the front door to my house. It is your private property and you never expect anyone who wasn't welcome to break those boundries, but we have welcomed the Internet with it's complete opposite point of view.
I wonder if this same ideal is why people don't bother securing wireless even when most have some grasp of the reprocutions of not securing their wireless.
Maybe this is the reason why THEY want to shut down the Hubble... the don't want us to realize that the great eye is watching us.
In all honesty this is the kind of shit that bugs me that they are taking a perfectly decent satelite out of orbit that is relatively easy to repair now that it is actually working.
I would imagine like most bears they are actracted to sweet odors and would enjoy ice cream very much. Hell, if they had money I bet you could make a killing selling them ice cream.
I would think this would work well in a warm day/ cold night setting but storing heat for 5 months in a big tank of water would need tons of insulation.
Use a laptop then. The conversion is done on the power strip. Take out the battery and just run off your custom solar power supply then no lossy conversion and you don't have to alter a power supply.
You have to tell your patrons that your religion is the absolute truth and that everyone is wrong. If you don't they will start to wonder about other religions and might stop going to your church because some other religion is saying they are the absolute truth. It doesn't take much to make that expand in to science.
You must not forget most religions are run like businesses. The more customers the more likely they will have money to blow on events and buildings to get more customers.
If non-reusable space craft are so cheap, then why are we so excited about developing reusable ones?
I can understand things like an orbiter might as well be reusable as you probably want the people to come back and complex life-support system aren't cheap. If you are launch a satellite then why do u care if everything comes back (if it is less expensive)?
$600,000 / 6-10 people per launch and it starts to be come reasonable
Add a mission to the launch like orbiting a Satellite and the price all of a sudden drops pretty quickly.
As for colonizing other planets I would recommend starting a bizar new religion. The "New World" was settled by religous nuts (look at the Puritans) and were funded either by people kicking them the f*** out of England or by getting funding within the church. I bet the same idea would work here.
First the game "smear the queer" has been around a bit longer than the usuage of "queer" to represent someone's sexual identity.
See Queer and educate yourself
Second I lived in a small town in Idaho and "corporate" lifestyle isn't really big. Think of a bunch of farm boys rough housing and just generally getting in trouble. There is something to be said about loyalty and trust between a group of people. It was always the good of the group before the good of the individual.
You joined the wrong group of Boy Scouts. I remember long games of tackle smear the queer and being body checked into the wall of bushes that surrounded the lawn of our meeting place. Camping trips usually involved someone getting seriously burned, falling into a ice covered stream, or a game of rock wars ending badly. Property damage happened often and our troop was banned from a couple convience stores.
I learned in my years as a boy scout if you ratted someone out you would pay later and keep your friends close but your enemies closer. So Boy Scouts did pretty much prepare me for life.
Put everyone on seperate VLAN, put a decent firewall up, and disable ports of problem users. Have a firm policy on what needs to be done to have a port reenabled that includes a fine to be reconnected.
I've seen the exact same thing happen over and over with AOL. A few users are too lazy to hit the unsubscribe list that they asked to be on (Univeristy Mailing lists) and then our whole mail system is blocked from using AOL. AOL is pretty horrible and it serves them right to have to deal with getting black listed.
The main damage in this case is poorly written spyware that have unoptimized loops or infinite loops and bleed the CPU cycles dry, turning any speed into the clunkiest piece of shit you could possibly imagine. In this case, the second core will help mitigate that.
Until they get two resource hog spyware apps going at the same time. Then they are back to square one.
Open source model does nto work well with this inherent greediness.
I disagree. This model works quite well in a capitalistic model. That is why the license states that you have to distribute source code with a product if you inturn distribute it. So if someone develops the Linux kernel and tries to sell it her payment to the orginal developers is the work she put into the code.
There is a cost of using open source code and if it fits in your business model then great!
Exactly a neat little marketing trick almost everyone else selling technology do. Look at processors the frist 6 months released they are priced outragously. The quickly come down after they capture early adopters.
I was thinking the same thing. The OP could very well be a Grad student somewhere trying to run sims on a budget. Who knows maybe he's got a buddy who works at Kingston or Micron and can hook him up fat with RAM.

That and loading the maps sends a couple cookies ur way. Who knows what info google is gathering none the less... but it won't keep me from using it.
If you continue with your deductive logic, you could easily conclude that by supporting Linux you are supporting terrorists.
Talk about a hack...
Makes me wonder how much delay there is between talking and the other party listening with the cell to cell to skype to skype to cell to cell.
We have a new acronym c2c2p2p2c2c

How do you know polar bears don't like ice cream?
I would imagine like most bears they are actracted to sweet odors and would enjoy ice cream very much. Hell, if they had money I bet you could make a killing selling them ice cream.
Isn't linux the reason that the xbox is so hackible?
Is this going to make it easier for people looking to copy games?
Ya my cellphone pay site appears to work fine in Firefox until you try to pay the bill. Then it just stalls and won't take my money.
My only question is why the hell do they not want my money?
Can you store the energy that long efficently?
I would think this would work well in a warm day/ cold night setting but storing heat for 5 months in a big tank of water would need tons of insulation.

Simple, the power struggle between the churches.
You have to tell your patrons that your religion is the absolute truth and that everyone is wrong. If you don't they will start to wonder about other religions and might stop going to your church because some other religion is saying they are the absolute truth. It doesn't take much to make that expand in to science.
You must not forget most religions are run like businesses. The more customers the more likely they will have money to blow on events and buildings to get more customers.
Which brings up a good point.

Does anyone know if any other communication devices are mounted on top the space needle?
I don't know about that...
$6 million per launch / Factor of ten = $600,000
$600,000 / 6-10 people per launch and it starts to be come reasonable

There was a time when a change in political parties ment that the whole staff of the government changed... all the way down to mail clerks.
I'm sure for the right price anyone would be willing to support it.

You might bitch to your ISP too... its possible they are filtering BT traffic somehow
