jeez man, that is cool... mobitv on treo 650? I too, love my treo 650... but I don't think I want to up my cell phone bill to $200 a month to watch tv on it. Ver!zon is teh suck when it comes to using minutes as well as bandwidth. They need to offer a package where internet usage does not use your airtime minutes before I start using it for that kind of content.
I have a Tao xm2go radio. Stores 5 hours of content, plus it has a built in antenna, so you can listen to the digital music wherever you can catch a signal. It came with car and home hookups too.
dude... go XM. Fungus 53 is where it's at. And to the other responders... green day etc is punk, yes, but until Propaghandi, Rise Against, Anti Flag and their ilk are on free radio, I'm stickin to XM.
it seems that old NO is fine, the French Quarter, Bourbon Street, etc. The areas that were affected the worst were drained wetland areas, where the suburban sprawl has sprung up. Maybe they ought to bulldoze it all and use it as a landfill until it is above sealevel...
Considering food production, the load that human activities are imposing on the biosphere, global warming, chemicals and pollution, labor and wages, issues of social equity, and the problems of crowding, disease, and misery, NPG believes that a world population size of two to three billion would be optimal.
Bwahahaha!
but seriously, I find the easygestures pie menu interface to be the slickest thing since tabbed browsing. At least on windows, I haven't got it to work on linux due to the middle-click:paste function over-riding it. On windows, you just middle click and sweep down-left (diagonally) and release the button,and voila! Tab closed.
as I see it, the releases strategy is set up this way to flood the xmas celebrating markets before releasing to the Shinto and Buddhist, non xmas celebrating market.
most home users looking to go to linux from windows that have motherboard raid are actually running 'software raid' specific to windows. I think if they are using raid already on windows, they ought to be savvy enough to figure it out. (or at least back up their pr0n before overhauling the OS)
yeah it looks to me (from TFA) like he is just hoping to generate book sales based on the book's title. I didn't really see anything in there that you couldn't find out using a simple google query.
another useful one... a small tftp/PXE boot server with memtest86 and your favorite linux distros ready to roll out via NFS install. you know, for those nothin-but-net installs and diagnostics. A ghost image server isnt a half bad idea either, if you use ghost.
I have had ram go bad,just from moving it from a perfectly working box to a new box w/ an upgraded mobo/proc setup. Luckily, it was Kensington (I seem to recall) and had a lifetime warranty, so I just RMA'd it. It was probably slightly defective and just needed a nudge. That was the only time I had a static induced component failure.
hey... I live in Newport News. Isabel was pretty effin devastating for a CAT 1 by the time it got here. I rode it out, thought it was fine. Then once it cleared up I went out to see what happened. Thousands of trees were down, power was out in my neighborhood for like 2 weeks. If we were to get a CAT 4 storm here, I won't be around to see it. Hell, the same year as Isabel, a tropical storm rolled through Richmond, VA from NC, flooded an area known as "The Bottom" in like 7-10 feet of water, killing several people. I would have never thought a tropical storm could do that (maintain power over all that distance).
#1 reason: Price If [Dell | HP | IBM | $RANDOM.PC.VENDOR ] were allowed to offer OS X on their machines, I would certainly consider it. Until then, I will use windows for gaming and linux for working.
I would hope they would preconceive this sort of issue, and distribute the fuel in canisters of some sort with the necessary extraction method already integrated. That way you could deactivate the old one, pull it out, slap in the new one, activate it and go. Of course, there would be no "topping off", but thats why you carry an extra canister. Maybe some kind of reservoir that the canister fills that would be able to store enough hydrogen to keep the car running, or if you ran 2 or 3 in parallel, and stagger replacement so that they never run out at the same time. Or maybe even a beowulf cluster of hydrogen cylinders!
I agree with you. If we can get a safe alternative fuel from hydrogen, we wont have to worry about "peak oil"(or "peak hydrogen", for that matter, what with the oceans), plus it could create a parallel fuel market (eventually). I was watching the news last night, they had a segment on the profit american oil companies are turning due to the recent hike in oil prices. I believe the figure was to the tune of $32B this quarter. They were showing signs at gas stations across the nation, I saw one that said $4.99 for regular. Unbelievable. I am dreading my heating bill this winter. We have got to take the control out of the hands of these greedy opportunistic corporations. They were encouraging people to not buy gas on sundays on the news. I have to wonder what the impact on the climate would be if we all started using hydrogen fuels, with the main byproduct being water vapor. Could this create more rain and/or humidity?

keep an eye out for Vermicious Knids...
IMO, the benefit from this device isn't so much the added fuel efficiency (only 10% or so) but the seriously reduced emissions.
can't wait for it to hit the east coast, however...

I assume it is for the same reason (corporate greed)

don't forget the "Mac folks came back and ripped off a bit of this and hat from Windows" line on the first page...

what about the 30 elderly people in the nursing home, that were abandoned in their beds as the floodwaters rose, drowning them.

I was thinking the same thing. how the eff is that flamebait?
as soon as they finds that alien generator and activates it, the planet will be ready for all to inhabit, what with the free air
can you say Toxic Avenger? :P
