Remember, these same servos are used in R/C planes doing some very complex maneuvers. Not saying the implementation is easy, but modern servos are up to the task.
Did you copy that from a book or is that all weed induced?
Good grief.
Let's sum up. Radiative heat transfer is insignificant, hence blocking glaze will be pointless. Except the some electric heaters heat mainly by infrared. That sun thingy only heats air, the ground certainly doesn't get any energy from it on a hot day. I guess those super hot sidewalks in the summer are actually from geothermal reactions under control of elves.
Please step away from the keyboard and go directly to your information source of choice and discover the world as it really is, not how it is in your brain.
Have you studied heat transfer at all? Radiative transfer is dependant mainly on the relative temperature differences of the two bodies (among other things). In case you didn't notice, the sun is kind of warm.
Relating that to a flask that's in the dark? Ehhhh, no.
I think you overestimate the conduction by air, it is a good insulator. If air conduction was so great, a house would cool really fast at night and I guarantee this is not true with my 1920's plaster. The sun is the major factor.
Think about why you stand in the shade when it's really sunny out.
I'm sure they studied what target temparture was desired, I imagine they could go lower if needed. I doubt that 84 just happened to be the lowest temp they could get with the tungsten technique.
How about:...*stopped the ship* in the middle of the Solar System...so long as you prepared for it in advance (hydroponics, water reclaimation, solar collectors, etc.).
My wife had pictures of my son taken by a local photographer and was amazed to find that photo used in one of his advertisements a year or two later. No, there was no agreement to allow this and my wife challenged the photographer on it. Result, free photo session (the irony was not lost on me).
The point: Sure, legally they can't use your photos, but that doesn't mean they won't. Better to get your rights up front, even if it does upset a business practice that has been around for a long time (like certain other industries of late).

I find it highly ironic that prior case work used to support this ruling was from Steve Jackson Games vs United States Secret Service.
Poor Steve got screwed then, and now the screwing continues.
"Electronic Storage" my ass. I suppose it's legal to read the snail mail in my neighbor's mailbox, I mean, it's in storage and is at it's final destination.
I think the court contradicted itself: "Once the e-mail is accessible to the recipient, final delivery has been completed.The final delivery process places the message into storage in a message store area. Often, a separate Mail Delivery Agent ("MDA") will be required to etrieve the e-mail from the MTA in order to make final delivery."
procmail is a MDA, so final delivery has not been completed. Further, "accessible to the recipient" is not accomplished until a MUA is used!
Clearly this is a judical problem, from a poor ruling a long time ago.
Flawed analogy. An ISP reading your email has to intentionally do so.
Happening to see a postcard as it is being sorted lacks the intent. Or are you saying the text of an email will just jump out at the ISP and demand to be read?
The article is slanted to sound like it's bad that accurate visitor data can't be had for a website. They fail to mention that compared to other forms of advertising, the Web is a gold mine of information.
Can a magazine tell you how many people saw a particular ad (without lying that is)? NO. Same for magazines, TV and even junk mail. They might have numbers that are reasonable as to how many people MIGHT see an ad, though take with salt. But how many people actually act on the ad? No sir. How many people blocked the ad? Ah, nope! One could get that from web server logs though.
It's all just the ad industry promoting the ad industry, ignoring the fact that is doesn't work.
First thing you need to do if decide what kind of downtime is acceptable. 5 seconds, minutes, hours?
Then you need to look at your services you're offering from your website, is it all static, session-based or what?
Combine the two to figure out how much your downtime is going to actually cost you. For example, if my personal site, which is static, is down for 5 hours the only person who is going to really care is me. And I don't pay myself much.:)
Flipside, on an ecommerce site with shopping cart, that 5 minutes of downtime could cost a lot of lost sales.
In otherwords, your redundancy plan should match how much you think you'll lose if Bad Things Happen.
Now, you're on a T1 with some personal stuff, let's assume 5 minutes is fine, money lost is minimal, but any more time will be irritating. Your content is static. Here's a cheap DIY solution and yes it's DNS based.
Setup identical webservers on seperate networks. Have those servers also be the nameservers for the website in question. Configure each webserver to only answer an A query as itself. The ttl for the A record needs to be low (5-10 minutes). Now, if one of the servers/networks goes down, clients can only resolve DNS by reaching a server; server down, can't query it, they'll hit the other server.
This method has some downsides, as mentioned bandwidth usage will be higher as more DNS queries will be made. Session-based stuff also won't work, no guarantee which server any given request will hit.
Having spent many an afternoon on the offroad R/C track, you're neglecting things that involve the driver, such as accelerating at the top of the ramp and such.
Part of landing flat is car setup but a major factor is also how the driver takes the jump.
Granted, 1/10th scale cards behave differently than the massive full scale, but not that much.
Backup should be considered different from archive. A backup is short term, in the event of deletion or file corrupt one would be able to restore. Say on the order of a month's worth of data; anything older is lost.
Archive is long term, as in years. You don't want to include system-level stuff in archive (waste), the target is data. And it would be good to backup your archive.:)
In addition to backup, you need to do something to insure the file is still readable and still has the correct bits. A backup of a corrupt file is still corrupt. Bitrot can be silent.
I'm sure freshmeat will have a few apps that will do integrity checking, aide comes to mind.
Thanks to BINDisms, the question has to be asked: what component of DNS are you talking about?
Authoratative server: ie, answering queries for domains you control. The arguments for keeping this in-house are the same as any other mission critical service, not worth restating. If your company outsources critical functions, might as well outsource auth DNS as well.
Caching server: ie, collecting answers to queries for clients. This is an overlooked critical piece, IMO. Cache poisoning is a real security risk, better you rely on your own cache than your ISPs. And better if that cache is dnscache of the djbdns tools rather than BIND.
What? I take it you're referring to carbon-zinc batteries, ie your standard AA, AAA etc.
Those don't even come close to the power discharge they're referring to.
Example, if you short a nickle cadnium cell you'd better be ready when the wire welds itself to the cell because of the current draw. Nicad + short = bad.

In heat transfer, it takes two to tango.

Air = Okay insulator
Vacuum = Better insulator

They are free to do these things, if I consent and know about it.
Not a good argument for giving ISPs unfettered access to my inbox.

What?
No one bothered to include the "Apache" example of Popular != Attacked?
There are more factors involved than just popularity.
Right. It's certainly not because the system remains stable over time. I mean, what fun would that be if the machine just worked for years at a time?

I'll second this. For a while, I had to use a Mac "hockey puck" mouse in addition to my normal workstation. Ow ow ow!!

I switched to using the puck lefty, normal desktop righty, no more pain. Hopefully that doesn't screw up my neural pathways too much.
