  1. Gravity on Plasma Propulsion Could Cut Time To Mars in Half · · Score: 1

    If the craft's continual acceleration is great enough then they could use the g-force to simulated gravity.
    The only time there would be 0g is when they turn the ship around at the .5 way point and just before/after the take off/landing.
    Health would no longer be such a big concern.

  2. splits on Linux Mergers? · · Score: 1

    I remember hearing about the drifting of the Linux's(sp?) and how software will soon no longer be compatable with all flavors. This could help cure that. But I doubt it.

    This is just a rant.

  6. Not wasted effort on Daikatana Sucks: It's Official · · Score: 1

    When a company spends that much time on a game and they focus mostly on the mechanics then you know that the game play is going to suck. But the game will be a technological milestone.

  11. contacts on Thoughts On Third-Party DSL Providers? · · Score: 1

    The biggest problem with your situation is that the company you get the service threw does not have direct comunication with the company who owns the sub system.

    The company I work for, downcity, is making sure that we have very good comunications with the company we connect to up stream and actually own the system.

    please excuse my grammar and spelling. I have been awake for less than 20 min.

    Well I have not yet gone to college but I thought the code was for more than the money.

    I code for fun. I know people need to support them selves but there is plenty more out there in the IT industry(sp?) then coding. Stuff like sys admin that pay well enough. Please correct me if I am wrong. I'm not 'out there' yet.

  15. CD-RW on Sony MiniDisc DV Cam Does Java, Ethernet · · Score: 1

    What would think if this device used a CD-RW to store the information(a mini one).

    That would solve the problem of drives and deleting the data you don't want any more.

    First off I know its you dave. See you tomarrow morning in programming class(busted).
    Second off you don't get the concept of this 'culture' thats why you criticize us.
    your lask of intelegence inhibits you from
    grasping the concepts we(the rest of the class)use every day.
    You truly don't belong with the rest of us.
    we talk of stuff like that to learn from each other. wich is one of the hardcore concepts of this culture.
    We are not genuses because we are in ap programming class(wich as I remember you were having a hard time in).
    I my self at the age of 18 heve been selected to be the system admin at the ISp I work at.
    I read books 6 or 7 hours a day, all on computer topics. That does not make me an arogend person. It just shows that I have a hunger for knoledge.
    again a nother base concept of this culture.
    If you don't under stand this then leave.
    You suck you closed minded bastard!
    Get out of /.!!!!
