  1. Isn't this obvious on India Launches World's First Stereo Imaging Satellite · · Score: 1

    There are 2 cameras because last weekend's there was a "Buy one get one Free" deal in Frys.

  2. Possible Oil strike on Moon on Site for Moon Base Determined · · Score: 1

    Now if thats not enough to get funding (private/texas...whatever) for the base, then what is ?

  3. Re:Pros and Cons of Municipal Broadband... on Minneapolis To Go Wireless · · Score: 1, Insightful

    Do the public, who ends up paying for all this later, get a chance to weigh such pros & cons ? There seems to be a rush of metros these days setting up such networks.
    I would not mind the facility but still .... who controls it...big brother? abuse, intrusion ...Not comfortable with it at all.

  4. Not really on Can India Become A Knowledge Superpower? · · Score: 0

    "conceptual" / in theory/, thats all. That label is ok only for marketing the company name. No guarantees that inidividuals are always better that ones from companies that are not certified.
    That being said, underkating such certification is a good effort, and very much advisable in "vendor/developer" neighbourhoods like china, india..etc, it will help in us vs next door guy pitch.

  5. China may have the edge over India on Can India Become A Knowledge Superpower? · · Score: 0

    China can be the knowledge super power everyone else should worry about, more than India. The only thing that could hold them back is their own heavy fisted policies against spread of news/information etc, & that rises from paranoia (like all autocracies). What helps them is that they may be more disciplined than most other countries with potential, like India.

  6. Re:Could see more like this in the future on SBC Might Buy AT&T · · Score: 0

    alright, thats something I always suspected. Big telcos may really be a "necessary" evil, after all.
    damn! I just wish there were more choices both for the telco & cable godzillas in my neighborhood.

  7. Any non-profit in US on .net Domain Up For Grabs · · Score: 0

    Are there any non profit registrars in US ?

  8. I wish console thru serial port was standard on Laptops, Headless Servers and KVMs? · · Score: 1

    It works well for us with our sun servers at work (we have kvm for normal use too). I think it would be great to do the same with linux; but my cheapo intel box linux sever at home dont comply.

  9. Re:future news on Deep Impact Blasts Off For Comet Tempel 1 · · Score: 1

    and after the impact, scientists are still unable to make sense of what goes on there.

  10. Re:How do instruments survive the crash?? on Deep Impact Blasts Off For Comet Tempel 1 · · Score: 1

    true, I only speed read it. But I assumed mothership monitors for some info sent out by the impacter.

  11. How do instruments survive the crash?? on Deep Impact Blasts Off For Comet Tempel 1 · · Score: 1, Redundant

    Wouldn't the impact destroy all instruments? or after making a dent, will they plan to send another carft to look at it :-)

  12. Re:Suing your own fans on Think Secret's Nick dePlume Revealed · · Score: 1

    Well, maybe they do not see people as fans. Them: Got power, can bully, will bully.
