The frequency and structure of GPS messages are well documented.
I can't see where it would be difficult to build such a transmitter.
Unless the military upgrades their signal to some sort of broadband, frequency-hopping, encrypted stuff, this WILL happen again.
Also there's the simple matter that GUIs work better for unfamiliar situations. While it might be easy to just say "Well a good admin should know about this," that is rather stupid. Nobody knows everything, you never get someone with limitless experience. Part of systems administration is being able to solve novel problems.
Documentation should exist. And should cover those unfamiliar situations. Ergo any good admin should be an habitué at manual reading, then he/she would be able to solve any unfamiliar examples.
Or, how the heck should one work on a remote server over a 500ms ping-time satellite connection??? Remote desktop?
Have you ever heard of isometrics?
I heard from a friend that did for a while that it works wonders for strenght building.
also strenghten your blood vessels and improves overall well-being.
Sure it also improves shape, but that is a side benefit.
Also what assures me that there is actually a spaceship on lunar orbit or mars orbit or a rover on the surface of mars or the moon, or wherever?
That could also be doctored. The deserts we see there could be anywhere uninhabited on earth, line the Atacama desert, or places in Morocco or somewhere else...
(not that I believe that sh!t either)
First, if an agency is encrypting their communications, there's not much hope for any other service to talk to them, unless (obviously), they all share keys. It's doubtful, though, that the FBI is going to share their encryption keys with the local volunteer fire department. So, the assumption must be made that this solution is meant for unencrypted (which is not to say, unencoded digital) communications.
Easy,
just set the primary channel to use $AGENCY key while secondary (and other channels) to use $OTHER_AGENCY key. Duh.
Then, just make it SOP to transmit on primary while on $AGENCY bussiness and secondary while on cooperative work.
I guess they meant IR lasers.
IIRc, the laser is used to measure window pane displacement, caused by by sound waves emanating from you keyboard.
Ah, in another/. post today they talk about the comeback of the IBM type M keyboard. With that, you might use regular microphone =]
Not DNA per se, but each have their own mineral (or chemical, or magnetic) signature that allows one to tell its lineage, and even predict how it's going to "evolve".
There is make-googleearth-package in debian testing.
Although that is the name of the program, not the package itself.
You might want to check it out. Altough the software says that it supports GE4.3, I did build GE5.0 ant it runs.
Low and medium level waste is to be disposed of at a site in Carlsbad, NM.
It is called Waste Isolation Pilot Plant - WIPP. Site here: http://www.wipp.energy.gov/
IIRC, they are open to (scheduled) visits.
Basically, it's a salt mine that doesn't produce any salt.
There used to be a script somewhere that you could use to update you view from time to time.
I used to do that, including satellite trajectories.
The picture was the placed into the root window.
My laptop still has it. It's nice.
And yet the author of that shallow PR stuff has never seen the inside of any armoured vehicle. They are not OD.
No need to camouflage the interior of a tank!!
He was not really a jerk. People tend to highlite his (supposed) thought to further their own beliefs (Including me).
"I do believe, that where there is only a choice between cowardice and violence, I would advise violence" - Mohandas K.Gandhi (Mahatma Gandhi)

While I do suppose I know what the current gov. is doing and where it is heading to, I seriously doubt if the mainstream media does know and it dares to announce it in the case it knows about.
Ah, yes it sounds like conspiracy theory, but then, the theory is a thousand times brighter than our future. I foresse dark times ahead.
Those silly fools complaining about the American Imperialism and cheerfully branding their PC words.
Maybe Vader was not so evil after all.
Ha... if the year+ of scandal, bribery, (supposed) political assassinations, ties to the PCC mob, the FARC, Castro, Chavez and the dullness of the reaction on the Bolivian Gas affair isn't enough to send the guys and his goodfellows to jail (not without mention to impeachment), then nothing else in the world is. Except perhaps an "Imperialist invasion". I for one would welcome the first marine or ranger to put his boots on brazilian soil. Ah, some bombs may help. And please spare our military - they are good guys, misled, but good indeed.
Maybe after this post I should consider applying for political asylum in the US or maybe Switzerland...

Portuguese and british were masters of Ded (deduced) reckoning much before the term was even invented. Humans can do that. Why computers can't?

Just ask a geologist.
BTW, Geology Rocks.
Did you use the --force option? (I really mean it)
