Tungsten is used in the current Aluminum metal via process, because it's very good at filling holes...
Yes but I hear that NASA has also subcontracted a few chemical companies in order to produce a new Al-based compound that will react in a smiliar fashion with the SiC. My guess is the newly discovered but still somewhat volatile Ronjereminium (RJM). Your guess is as good as mine, though.
5:00pm - I JUST got back into my dorm room, and what am I greeted with but some girl on my floor and her mom was sitting on a couch together enjoying some sort of hot beverage! I flipped out!. Because, I mean, if you see two women sitting together drinking tea, you know they're going to start talking about their monkey problems...

* why doesn't he install it on his own? no better way to do it and the interwebs are full of documentation
Ironically, the site that is linked in the summary doesn't help "Jake" out at all. The walkthrough to install Gentoo on a PS3 is actually LINKED to at the bottom of the page. The article on the site is exactly like the summary. He is taking hackneyed Gentoo arguments, which really have nothing to do with development of installing Gentoo on your PS3, and posting them in his blog as if he had to sell people on the install. Gentoo on a PS3 was already done by the Gentoo folks and is quoted as the main source of the "wiki" linked at the bottom. The wiki, though, does give you good install insight such as "(Press Enter)" Much of Gentoo.org's wiki has been copied word-for-word by these other guys
This website has the looks of a barebones advertisement page: "IntelliTXT," full sidebar ads, a "blog" network, links to add it to 7 blog/news aggregators, all topped off with a HORRIBLY done CSS job. In the author's own defense, he did a pretty good job of getting his advertisement out. At the heart of it, it seems like a pretty generic linux hobbyist story: guy finds something with electricity running through it and installs linux on it. Jake isn't even registered to the site, but still asks people to "keep watching" for updates to the install/addon process. They also didn't provide any pictures:(
I'd question the need for Gentoo on PS3 in this situation, their lack of evidence of an install, and the actual existence of "Jake".
You will finally be able to experience all 60 frames per second of visuals that your 1080p HDTV can provide. Unfortunately there has been no HDMI cable yet announced so this is only over component and VGA. Even better, users can expect 1080p upscaling immediately on current games and DVDs while native 1080p on compatible HD DVD titles.
Emphasis mine of course... I see a few problems with what's going on here.
I have never seen a television that is able to reproduce 1080p over component cables. Some units could probably be able to push a 1080p picture through component, but most limit that feature to a dvi-d interface. (I could very well be wrong, though, please correct me)
This is up-conversion. Therefore the games currently are sent natively through 720p (interchangeable with 1080i, no?) and upconverted to 1080p via the xbox. This picture is then sent to the television to handle. If the television can't handle it, I'm assuming it will end up 1080i.
In response to the article... If my first point is correct, that no television can take a component 1080p signal and display it, then there can be no native "1080p games" developed.

$15 Million for a 1400 person textile factory which was primarily for people who (1) weren't working for a quarter after the place burned down and (2) needed an increase in health benefits. There are probably plenty of examples, except that they do not get much press concerning their accolades; human destructionism sells so much better.
I wouldn't stop at "some" stock... Google spent $1 Billion on this company. And even though $1b is a relatively small amount to corporate Google, it is still an investment, so it would be nice if this badware alert is a sort of spread-no-evil-you-should-change-your-ways message to AOL.
Not once, anywhere in my comment did I say that I had perfect intuition, nor did I say that a system with no AntiVirus and Firewall is the perfect setup for all the computer mice of the world. It also might be worth mentioning that I am very rarely on a Windows desktop.
Perhaps, though, I was a bit misleading and for that I should apologize. I merely meant to comment that software based Firewalls are ridiculously overhyped as mentioned in the article and a common solution to an oversecure system is merely to watch what you download... plain and simple. Firewalls should be left for the hardware to work with or a computer that is solely dedicated to that function.
But since you seem to take this personally, if it makes you feel any better my old man's laptop uses Panda and the general family computer runs Norton.
I always get questions, especially from my college friends, about what AntiVirus software and Firewall I use on my Windows machines. And to be honest, it stuns me to see them stunned when I tell them I use neither. This BSI Agency pretty much summed it up in the middle of the article:
"Desktop firewalls, as they are also called, are practically extraneous, presuming that you adhere to the basic rules of safe surfing,"...
"Surfing habits are hence important for security,"
Granted, "safe surfing" changes from household to household, but people who are using the internet should at the very least have the slightest idea on what they should be clicking on. All of the browsers today come defaulted to spit out warnings whenever someone is clicking on, say, an EXE file. Of the general users I've seen surfing, these warnings are normally defaulted to the 'x' button which is entirely "unsafe surfing."
I do, however, have my router set up to block outgoing traffic to certain domains as well as connection types that I know my family will never use. Upon request, I go out to friend's and neighbor's houses to set that kind of stuff up for them, because having to walk them through it would be hell, much less trying to explain what I was doing. Firewalls and AntiVirus software aren't exactly very user-friendly; people would rather install them and expect them to work rather than read through heavy material and configure them to fit what they need.
Garbage. The people you speak of do not *need* anything. They have just bought into the services that AOL offers and have become complacent with it all. From such a standpoint, there is not a problem; some people, once using a service and relatively happy with it, do not care to look into other options. That is the problem. People get pulled into this service and if--more like when--AOL crumbles, customers will find that AOL is not the world wide web as they market themselves.
You can switch from satelite to cable, get the same channel options and still not be bogged down by the switch. The menu might change a little bit along with the remote, but it's still television and you can still find your way around, etc.
My mother hates when something on the computer changes (that is, hotmail changes its interface or the connection responds weird) but I'm positive if we had gone the route of AOL, then switched over to broadband with a different company, the change would have been a bit more harsh.
The only way we know that this State censorship exists in India is because we don't live in India. If it gets to the point where we dont know that we are being censored--which, I suppose, is the idea of censorship--what happens then? How can we workaround to a solution that we don't know is there?
I agree with you on half of your post--choice is great for a free market economy--but, in my opinion, you are out of the censorship jurisdiction with a comparison to free trade.
David Wheeler, for instance, calculated that Redhat 7.1 contained 30,152,114 [dwheeler.com] physical source lines of code (SLOC), a 60% increase over 6.2 (and that was in 2001).
There are also 8(?) versions of the operating system so take the generalizations lightly
And even if you think cloning humans is morally acceptable, the practice of killing the "superflous" embryos that are created in the process by dumping them in the bin can be equated to murder
You have brought up an argument that has plagued the biological science since its inception. How can you so readily define human life at a molecular level? I somehow doubt your reason for bringing up this idea moves past religious concerns.
For the amount of resources being put into stem cell research and promise coming out of scientists worldwide, I would rather see cloned embryos destroyed as opposed to the hope of life-saving research destroyed.
That's kind of the idea. Standard Definiton content isn't enough for high definition users, and standard dvds aren't enough for high definition content. People with regular monitors (television and otherwise) WILL notice a change in quality but to what extent depends on the viewing area of the screen. A movie sent out in 1080 progressive scan lines (~1920x1080) will look simply stunning on a television that can host it, but when viewed on a normal tube television (~640x480) the picture must be proportioned accordingly.
Standard DVDs currently can hold enough information for a bare minimum for high definition televisions (minimum from a *phile) which is, of course, not acceptable.

This idea is pretty sweet if you ask me. Carlos Mencia would be out of a job.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but The Pope is designated as such because he recieves* messages from God and then directs the church.
