My Nexus 7 fits in the inside pocket of most of my jackets, and it I can slip into my front jeans pocket, but I wouldn't climb stairs or take long strides with it there.
Much as I'd love to blame MS Windows, the OS on these boxen doesn't matter WRT an outside attack. It is the encryption of the LAN/MAN/WAN that matters, and that involves hardware, firmware, software and wetware. When they are handled properly these systems can be allmost untouchable. However... all it takes is one wetware failure (britnynude.exe) and you can pooch the whole thing.
My brother-in-law does numerical modeling of the oceans, He tells me that the oceans are already absorbing CO2, in massive amounts. The ocean-atmosphere CO2 balance uses the oceans like a CO2 sink, pump CO2 into the air and the ocean tries to balance the system by absorbing it some of it, takes decades to do it. Here is the flip side to the system, say we stop all CO2 releases into the atmosphere and even find a way to rapidly remove the excess to bring it down to some 'golden' level. Now the ocean-atmosphere CO2 balance is out again, now the oceans release CO2 back into the atmosphere. At a natural rate, with us not releasing any more CO2, and the rest of the earth's biomass removing the CO2 from the air at a natural rate, CO2 levels in the air would still climb, then peak over several decades and then start to decrease back to this 'golden' level the last stage in this may take 200-600 years.

Giving Brazilian police access to private photo albums on Orkut to assist an investigation into child pornography.The lesser of two evils is still pretty lame
If I am reading this right, Lore Sjöberg http://www.wired.com/services/feedback/letterstoeditor
is saying that, Google, by allowing police access to investigate child pornography charges, makes Google 'Evil'?!?! If some freak was storing images of someone raping a toddler on hardware my company owned, he'd be lucky if I the only thing I did was allow the police access to his crap. How is this action a 'lesser' evil?!?! If Google turned over every single picture of child pornography from hardware they owned to the police, I'd demand they give Google a Nobel Prize for service to humanity.
Anybody see what the detection rate is with only one MD looking at the images? The article seems to be missing that bit of date. I'm willing to bet it is it 'statically' lower than the two MD system.
This would be proof that four eyes are better than two! =8-]
I mean, imagine if you had two bullet-proof vests -- one with multiple layers that let bullets through 23 out of 10,000 times, and one with a lightweight, high-tech material that let bullets through 89 out of 10,000 times. Would you really want to go with the latter?
That would depend on how much the multi-layer one hinders my ability to complete my mission. If gear weight and space in no problem, and I just have to stand around, hell give two of the bulky ones! 11.5/10,000 sounds even better. But if I can't get my ass out of harms way wearing it or the high-tech one, just paint me with woad and give me a loin cloth.
In Newfoundland, Canada, a lab that screwed up testing thousands of biopsies as false negatives has been calling the women to inform them they should get re-tested, only to be told that they have died . . . from cancer their lab tests said they didn't have. I'm sure women who were really negative would have had no problem dealing with the stress of retesting if it meant Grandma/Mom/Sister/Daughter/Girl-Friend would be alive today.
Looking at the graph of the data, it looks like the decay rate changes in sync to changes in the Earth's speed towards/away from the sun. If so the rate of decay in the space probes PUs would only change when it changed its rate of speed away from the sun, not its distance. A test would have to factor this in as well.
Unless you are going way-out where there is no conectivity of any sort, why not just connect and get only what you need. If you trully need total access to Wikipedia offline you probably want at least a laptop just for comfortable use, most people arn't like me and happy to try and do everything though a Tungsen T5.
Truth is, I do not have a degree either, a fact that always seems to stun some of my co-workers. They are like many people, in that they equate education with inteligence. Yet we are always interacting with ed-ja-mi-cated idiots who 'know' much, but could not find their a. . . hats with both hands. I am sure you have met the type.
I started with her Darkover books about 15 years ago. I like to think her Darkover books (and others as well) got me thru my high-school years, they gave me an escape I could take mentally, saved me from escaping in destructive ways I belive.

Give me back my TS1000, 2KB is plenty, 3.25MHz CPU. What more could you need?

Well if you to work free of the bonds of the cubicle, I have the Macintosh Portable! (laptopish thingy)
Oh yah, TS1000 with the 16K ram pack and I'll throw in the big rubber band!
Hey! I can fire-up my Amiga 1000, 2000 and 4000!
Damm, I'm cutting edge again!

Hey I'm all for ZPG, but this way is much faster, dead people don't breed. Then there is all the growth you would get in the funeral industry!
What?!?! not with that 6 digit ID number you don't

That opens up that other can of worms, who gets to pick who dies?

and have all the network cables geeked-out with LED activity indicators!
Can you say body-cavity-search?
Buy a bunch of them, pack them into a suitcase with some laptop batteries, Portable Cluster.
Not a single mention of Iceland in the article, I guess it is only an option if it is a 'Made In The USA' thing.

Love your show! Destructive testing is the way to go.
