Although I agree with your definition of a trojan, I have to say that this is a trojan as well.
If someone puts malware in a device I would willingly put in my computer without me employing security measures, I would consider that more true to the original source of the term.
I know I shouldn't have, but I read it. Did anyone else notice the huge difference between 87% and 88% in the graph?
Also, who here would allow a "survey group" have access to conduct a remote scan on their computer? Methinks this survey is skewed, even if (especially because) they used quotas.
That answer is correct (at least to as many digits as you want to show), and it is not ridiculous. The numbers you used were integers that have infinite significant figures. Had you used 52.0 or 5.2x10^1 that would have been another story.
The minimum significant figures that could be used for your example is one for 7x10^0, so your correct answer would be 7, not 7.4 as you said.
Of course we should keep all figures and then calculate the final significant figures from the error from your original measurement(s).
The room that Pons (of Pons and Fleishman Cold Fusion fame) work in was far from the line of sight of anything. It was in the basement of the University of Utah chemistry building. The engineering building this research was done at is at least a half mile away.
Yes, I know you were joking, but Fleishman wasn't from Utah.
I remember visiting a friend there who was working on this project. He mentioned that they were using tuned sound to cool devices. The inverse is what they are talking about here. Going either way there will be losses, but without looking at the data I can't make any observations about efficiency. I guess I could call and ask for more info...
At high temperatures and pressures necessary for supercritical water, it becomes too corrosive to be held in most materials. If I recall correctly, you need tungsten for the walls, and either diamond or corundum (sapphire) for any windows, and corundum needs to replaced periodically because it is corroded slowly.
I don't know of any techniques that will increase the temperature and pressure capacity of that apparatus.
This is far different than your satellite down, dial-up up ISP. I would guess that most of this traffic, especially initially, wouldn't even touch the internet. I don't know how well this satellite router would work if it was the only one in space, but if it can retransmit data on different bands that would be very helpful when you have limited ground based transmission equipment.
No ISP would put in the type of satellite communications equipment that they will use for this system in your backyard. If they did, you would be able to take it with an axe, nor would you want to. They are a bit more expensive than any reasonable company would throw at a consumer.
When looking at the places in Iraq I have been, the images are a few years old. It does give reference points for other intelligence though. I don't know how it would help them much, with the accuracy I have seen the incoming rounds achieve.
That same noise on my ipod that I turned off the moment I got it? There are many people here who would rather not have those noises, no matter how much others may want them. If you insist on putting those sounds it, please just give us a way to disable them.
Well, I don't know about you Luddites, but I have been using dihydrogen oxide to facilitate transfer of molecules into my body. I can't believe people are so stuck on "nanotech". I also use this other great molecule, which is my personal favorite example of picotech. I don't know if anyone else has discovered it, let alone the Egyptians, but ethanol is great. If you get a chance, you should try both. You won't know how you lived without them.
Althought it would depend on the biometrics the system uses, I think a father, or even a legal guardian would probably be able to get around it. But then again, do you want to teach the children to lie?

I thought that electron microscopes would be more beta, while helium ion microscopes would be more alpha.

Well, luckily my wife doesn't need to be loud. She's that hot.

Ok. But the 300 C value is from the surface. The interior is presumed to be hotter, and an increase of only 100 degrees is not that hard to believe.
Thanks for the good information, but don't be so sure about it being liquid. Comma,

Yes, I currently use Spacetime http://www.spacetimemobile.com/ and sometimes Pocket Excel.

Have you seen What Lies Beneath?

I don't think any technical library could be complete without the CRC Handbook of Chemistry and Physics.
Well, it looks like Barry is finally getting his way.C ouncil.jpg#185

It was pink styrofoam insulation, which doesn't lose strength when it gets wet.
Unless it rains acetone.
Is the plan to augment the NOAA's flood watch program, or are they planning on mostly commercial applications?
And how well is that working? I don't know, but I'm sure someone will tell us. Or at least give us their opinion.
How much do you want to bet that the words weren't types of food?
How about Cooldesk or altdesk? I would link to them like you did to powertoys, but I think the links might be included in the post.
Evans and Sutherland is working on better. They are making a 8000x8000, 32bit color, 60Hz projector. The power consumption is a bit high for most people though, at 5kW. http://www.es.com/products/digital_theater/digista r3-laser.asp

What's next? A giant space crystal coming to attack Orion?
