  1. Re:Cry Wolf? on 3 Ton Meteorite Stolen · · Score: 2, Informative

    Actually depending on it's density it could be smaller than you think. If it is a rock, say with the density of concrete it would only be 1.48 cubic yards in size.
    That mean 4.5 ft length on each axis roughly (since it is irregular and all). It is nothing a hoist and a few straps couldn't lift into a suitable truck.

    If the density was higher as they say the composition maybe iron, those dimension will be even smaller.

    Understood. I didn't mean to imply that the Wii is a perfect machine, just that I personally haven't experienced any problems with it and I hope I don't in the future either.

    I am on my second PS3 after the first had a firmware update which is claimed completed. Went to reboot and the system just hangs. Ended up sending it back to Sony and the shipped me a different one. So even though it wasn't a hardware issue, things happen.

    No problems with the Wii yet, runs like a champ.

    At some point companies may wrap the exterior of the building with Faraday mesh to prevent radio signals from exiting the building with any significant range. External radio signals could be ported and broadcast within the building similar to the project to extend radio station signals into road tunnels as test in Pittsburgh, Pa. This would allow the company to control the signals that enter and exit the building while also allowing for cellphones and radios to work.

    Now the cost to benefit ratio of such a system would most likely kills the idea unless the security of the network was highly valued.

    The best thing would be a lead lined box that you could place in a food saver bag and vacuum seal.
    A silica moisture absorber similar to those found in vitamin bottles should be included.
    You might have to check on them periodically to ensure the vacuum is still in tact but it should help ensure the film lasts.

    I remember this fabled article. I was new to the net at the time, so young, so naive. I just wanted some gravel. Heard I might get a good deal over the internet. I clicked the link to see what types of gravel were available. Little did I know what horrors I would witness. I vowed to never order gravel after I saw the method for delivery. Though high capacity, I didn't want ass gravel under my new patio.
