  1. Re:Feeling Left Out on First European Commander of the ISS · · Score: 0

    Not exactly; most of the people in Asian part of Russia are slavs too. That's because asian part didn't have any considerable native population before it was settled by russians and ukrainians in 18-19 centuries, and soviet times added even more of the same. There are quite a few minorities in Asian part, but they are minor. Compare with e.g. russian caucasus which consists mainly of non-slavs.

    Do you seriously assume that 13 sep would somehow fall on Saturday more often than on other weekdays?

    There's still credit history and earnings history. Besides, noone said that consumer spendings should be credit-based.

    The russian one would probably have Engineer's degree instead; That's 37% more time spent educating, not that I can guarantee it to yield.

    For me, ReiserFS was fantastically stable even on failing hardware (I had a DMA which used to write wrong bytes to disc, with rate near byte-per-ten-megabytes)

    For 20M you spent a few days on IIS, you could conduct research or other activity. For 200,000 you'll just see some stars and a big round earth, and that's all.

    As far as I know, its API is pretty open. So, it will be supported under linux when there would be enough momentum.

    You're a liar. Just a plain liar who hope that people wouldn't read the TFA "1) Wikipedia appears on my referrer list as having provided 401 out of 293,781 referrals for the month of September. In October (the month during which I stirred the pot again) it provided 395 referrals (as of this writing). Webalizer rounds this down to ?0.00%? of my monthly traffic. Obviously my Wikipedia article is a HUGE part of my advertising campaign. (Where?s the sarcasm tag, now?)"

    P.S. It's not about community decision, it's about admins who don't really grasp subject delete articles basing on rule which was written by someone totally clueless in rule's subject. Community can't really interfere when there are just plain irrelevant rules with no apparent mechanism for quick change. You just can't do anything no matter how much you want to.

    Well, same shit is happening in Russian wikipedia. For examle, recently we've seen deletion of article about russian larp-singeress for the same reason, and I fear a lot of articles about notable but niche things would be deleted.

    Nope. What you're talking about is ASP Linux. Alt linux is a complete-cycle distribution remotely based on mandrake and debian.

  17. Re:Fuel is not the major cost on The Coming Uranium Crisis · · Score: 0

    Yes, but consider enriched uranium costs ~1500$ while raw uranium costs 90$ So making raw uranium cost 400x will just effectively double their costs, and I doubt it'll rise so much.

  18. Bad month makes good year on A Bad Month for Firefox · · Score: 0

    I guess that'll be a big bang if they're ever recall keys for a large and still selling generation of players. Hardware makers didn't understand that they've gave hollywood just enough rope.

    I am curious. If we've, let's say, pwned a hardware player. And AACS LA revokes original keys. They don't want buyers to kill them, so they have to reissue some keys. But if we've already pwned device, can't we happily receive these freshly-reissued keys, pretending we're this device? We might know every cryptokey this device holds at this moment!
