The post that I responded to asked how is it that idling can make much difference to the mpg calculation.
I just used an example to demonstrate that it can make a significant difference.
If idling, cummulatively, makes up a significant portion of the old mpg test as compared to the new mpg test (as the article states), then it makes sense that hybrids will do worse in the new mpg test.
Imagine a hypothetical test where the cars idled for 2 hours and then drove for 1 mile.
For 2 hours, the gas guzzler is using up gas, but the hybird is using nothing - no electricity and no gas since it's shut off.
MPG = miles divided by gallons. If the gallons used is 0 in the hybrid for the idle period, then it is already way ahead. For a hybrid, the longer the idle period, the smaller the divisor, and therefore, the larger the MPG.
Considering that these rovers were initally spec'ed for a 90 day mission, the fact that they are still going after 3 years is something worth celebrating.
There is no reason to switch to RHEL unless you have an enterprise to run. It is a very conservative distro (as in not includng cutting edge stuff). It has to be, since stability is what you get and pay for.
Actually, when lame programmers all over the world has made a total mess of things using that weak language, people will call on you to clean up his shit. Yes, they'll pay you more, but is that really worth your while?
I know you're just joking, but to clear up a common misconception, your microwave oven operates at 2.5GHz, which is why it interferes with current wifi stuff.
This technology operates at 85GHz, which is still in the microwave/radar band of the EM spectrum, so it's likely to interfere with radars.
Like it or not, the execs control the fate of the company much more than the workers. The CEO can single handedly ruin the company - a single foot soldier cannot - this is why the person at the top gets paid the big bucks.
The key for the execs is to bring all of that coolness you describe into alignment with business goals - which is easier said than done.
Mostly for ease of deployment. Assuming that everyone already has a VPN client for connecting from home or hotels, etc. Your users then don't have to do anything special like 802.1x for wireless but VPN for something else, and your administrators have one less variable to control.
Microsoft gave Novell money because, in the words of Darth Maul, "At last we will reveal ourselves to the Jedi."
Microsoft got tired of waiting for their puppet SCO to spread FUD, so they just went ahead and did it themselves, telling the Linux community recently that everyone had better pay protection money, because Linux infringes on Microsoft's patents.
What you need to do is assume that your wireless network has already been penetrated by Joe sitting at Starbucks, and then develop a defense from there. For example, one solution is having all wireless clients go through a VPN client with strong authentication mechanisms just to get back into the corporate network.
They asked 8th graders whether they enjoyed math and whether they feel they did well in math, and saw that those who enjoyed it more or were more confident in it scored the least well in math tests.
So what?
I used to think I was pretty good at tennis, until I got my butt kicked by someone who can play against me sitting in a chair, and then I saw that guy get his butt kicked by someone else who competed on a national level
And then I saw the light: I suck at tennis and I will have to put in a lot of time to get better, then I got kind of depressed for a while and enjoyed the game less.

Amen. The "new" email interface is so slow and heavy.
They pulled the same to crap to tv.yahoo.com.
Yahoo should remember, "Don't fix it if it ain't broke!"
If the media conglomerates are going to create a source of truly free content, then more power to them. But I won't be holding my breath.

And we all know that Jellystone is a takeoff on Yellowstone, no?
It's time for Yogi Bear to move out!

I've always enjoyed intuitor dissect movie physics for some of the more popular movies.

According to the article, he's in Bowling Green State University, which is in Ohio. So DHS will be on this case in no time.
Maybe someone can use this new technology to fix Yahoo TV so that it can be useful once again.

Our hero copied the smartcard from their photo on the website and keyed in the password 12345, the master password that unlocks all diebold machines.
Why don't they just send me money directly?

The hood ornament analogy is very bad.

Mac addresses can be trivially faked.

I agree with the OP. You bet it's the camera's fault.
Heck, if size weren't an issue, I'd walk around with a View Camera.
Bottom line: the more convenient it is to carry a camera, the more likely you are to use it, and camera size inversely relates to convenience.
instead of a Canadian Communication Student? Sorry, this joke wrote itself.

QED.
