Shit, 34 computers? What do you have those for, an expected glut of exchange students? When I drove through lone pine (~40min south) a few years back their graduating HS class had four students: Valedictorian, Magna Cum laude, Cum laude, and Billy-bob.
Is that one computer lab for the entire district? Or do you buy computers in order to teach classes once every four years to satiate the board of education?
Bishop is a cool town, a great place to stop on the way to mammoth, but crikes.
I was an intern at a company and doing software testing in highschool. One of the managers' name was Gary. In the lab I worked in w/ 25 computers, I had to keep towels nearby because ANY time he used a computer he left gary juice on it. Dont know what it was - not sweat because it didn't dry off, not a typical oil, just gary juice.
I came up with ways of keeping him out of the lab so that he never touched one of my machines. Talk about motivation to go talk to your managers.
As an student who will be entering grad school in materials engineering this fall with the intention of doing research in nanotech type things (opto electronics and molecular electronics) this is mostly horseshit. (also doing research on constructing photonic band gap materials currently)
The state of nanotech (a word that is surely to become a buzzword more overused any before) is such that no useful devices will come from current research for years. Compare it to the creation of the mechanical computer. The ideas are there certainly, but the execution in a useful mannar are long off. We just cannot control the exact placement of single atoms well enough, and possibly never will due to thermal energy (kT being larger than the intermolecular forces)
Certainly there are and will be uses for nanotech in the near future, but none will be NEMS (nano electro mechanical systems) or other machinations or devices. Also it will be years before any 'intelligent' device could be created that could do more than just move from one place to another.
Don't get me wrong, I'm excited about all that is in the field (comp sci, materials, bio, chem, physics) of nanotech, but it really is in an infancy. The current threat of anything being used harmfully is as far away as anything being use for good. There will be some things that will be 'censored' but those will be the monumental jumps in logic and technology that make the science become engineering, and useful products.
Are you a mechanical or thermal or for that matter any kind of engineer? Probably not.
Heat has to go somewhere. An extra 4mm of Ti, paint, lcd, and other coatings will severly hamper heat transfer. You dont want your computer to crash nor your the plastic keys to warp when the heat is trapped, do you?
Also, how in the world do you think that 'clamshell' mode speeds up your computer?
where i go to school they take the first letter of the first name and the first 7 letters of the last name to make user accts. simple? ashley baldassi has a most excellent email address.
My friend is a smart guy, but he is running an open relay, mostly unprotected server(s) on a T1 that is just waiting to get nailed. He doesn't understand what kind of pain he could end up in and how much more difficult his life could become without precautions.
What do I do? Let him learn the hard way or is there some easy way to teach him a lesson without making him hate me for ruining his server. (and no, I'm not posting the URL here)
He likes the open relay part so that he has his own smtp server he can use from anywhere anytime - even though he has a secure server on DSL at home.
star wars on the moon? great idea

Want to put lasers on the moon to shoot at asteroids carrying bruce willis and ben affleck? Great!
Worried someone might turn it towards earth to shoot at this little mostly harmless rock because matt daemon still resides here? No worries!
Put them on the dark side of the moon - not the floyd album, but the side we never see... last I checked there would have to be a preeeeeety sophisticated system of mirrors to reach us from there.
Wait. Mirrors in space and ben affelck? What am i talking about, I must have just taken my last final and have had a few beers already. Whos that knocking at my door?
Crap - Here at cal poly in San luis obispo, my little airport network is going to get some freak slashdot effect and instead of everybody not seeing a site, I won't see any sites.
On top of that there will be 50 geek cars parked infront of my house mooching bandwidth.

This is more of a description of which type (programmer or engineer) is good for types of tasks but could easily be used to compare CSC vs CPE (at my school)
Some people call themselves "Programmers" and others call themselves "Software Engineers". "Engineer" seems to have more prestige in our society, so more people try to call themselves Engineers (even if they aren't). Of course anybody can call themselves whatever they want -- so what people call themselves makes little difference; however, there is a distinct difference between the two.
There are needs for both (engineers and programmers) -- and different tasks require more of one or the other. Most tasks require only a few engineers and quite a few programmers. The problem is that many managers don't understand the difference, or hire the wrong ones for a job.
Programming is not hard -- it is tedious. You need to be able to break complex things down, into a long series of simple steps. That is it. How you approach that problem will define whether you are a programmer or an engineer. So the biggest difference between the two is philosophical -- and like most philosophical differences, it can lead to tension. Arrogant types (on either side) can get into these little ego-driven superiority complexes that drive the other side nuts, and some pretend that the "others" are idiots. They aren't idiots -- they just have different goals, different motivations, and different philosophies.
The cameras acted like I was watching someone else play a video game - there was too much movement/bad angles to watch the game - but perfect if you were controlling the team.
Also the game was wayyy to long - the end of the second quarter came almost two hours after the start of the game. And I thought the NFL dragged out their games.
Ideally.xxx would work just great at the consumer service provider/server service provider level but what about the middlemen?
all of those hops that your packets go thru are routers/switches - and somewhere, sometime, there will be someone that decides that NOBODY should see porn and decide to block all.xxx
I think it would be great if.xxx worked so that public places would not risk showing objectionable material. But what about private use? If it can be done with.xxx then it can be done with any group specific TLD. Imagine if there were.rep or.dem being filtered? or.pot?
ligaments and cartilege are polymers to start out with
Plastic chipset - how big would that be - say you have.18-.25 micron silicon chips... to have the same functionality (source, gate, drain) on the actual chip the size would be a LOT bigger.. the conducting polymers are made of many mers (hence poly) and get into the 100s of thousands easily.... sure they may be only a few atoms wide, but their length will be enormous and the reliability of placement - how easy is it you think to get a 1000link chain to just set neatly somewhere on a surface with bumps as big as the links (atoms/mers)
some bits of information: polyacetylene which is basically the material the nobel prize was won for has a conductivity of about 10^4... while gold/sliver copper is only 100 times that... pretty good
the polyparaphenylenes and doped polyparapheynylenes (sulfide/vinylene) have a reflective appearance which means their band gap is in the infra red which means they absorb the particular electro magnetic radiation which radar uses - this was used as a coating for the B2
Offspring says that they allow napster to use their product so offspring should be able to use theirs. The difference is the offspring is selling merchandise - if they were trading or giving it away their argument might hold. But I just tried to trade them a metallica shirt for a napster shirt and they wouldnt take it. punks.
The ONLY thing that ANY vendor can ask you for as proof of identification is your signature. They cannot ask for your liscence, a photo copy of your whatever... It is cleary stated in every card holder agreement which I have for all my cards. If a vendor requires anything other than sig, you can report them and they risk losing their contract w/ the credit card company. Regardless of being online or in person, they can only ask for a signature as proof.
My roommates and I heard about this on monday and tried it that night at office max. We had heard that the forms had been updated at some stores and not at others, but knew a few people who had done the deed. Went in and the forms had been updated with one form for CA/OR and one for the other states, also the rebate was changed to mail in only, not instant. this was in San Luis Obispo, CA

went to highschool just outside of la jolla. if i remember right that is a home address. time for the reinterpretation of WAR driving.
If apple wrote a driver to reconize, read or rip the cds, it would be in violation of the DMCA, or circumventing a copy protection scheme.
