Just think about this a moment. NASA took a photo from a satellite, of a probe landing on another planet. And they got telemetry relayed about the landing from ANOTHER satellite.

And it's not just a bright pixel, you can clearly see what it is.

Stunning.

Still very much Nuclear Free here in NZ. It's law, and it's basically political suicide for a politician to try and change it.

Really very strongly supported by the NZ population.

NB: The US Navy is more than welcome to stop by New Zealand with it's conventional powered ships, as long as they confirm that there are no nuclear weapons on board. Unfortunately the US Navy isn't so keen on confirming that.

It does not work. Last I heard the answer was "use VNC" or some such nonsense.

Replacing X is one thing, replacing it with an inferior product however is ludicrous. Ludicrous is unfortunately something that Ubuntu is quite adept at :-(

Yeah!

How's Firefox's Gopher support?

So, like this...

Work in progress obviously, but people are working on it.

Living Cell Technology is basically doing this in a way with the porcine implantations, the piggy cells are encapsulated in a permeable coating that allows them to function but disguises them to the human body.

Also saw mysql go bonkers on two systems, both Ubuntu 12.04, one server, one desktop. Used 100% of a core. Restarting mysql didn't help but rebooting fixed it.

I saw 100% spikes on other servers at the time, but they sorted themselves out.

Apparantly Mozilla saw it also with MySQL and Java.

More specifically, they said "please don't look under the shelf IF YOU ARE A ROBOT"

Because there will come a time when you are away from home and will think
"if only I had made SSH accessible I could fix the server right now using my mobile to ssh in, instead of having to go home"

RTFM, if you want to avoid the dynamic typing, then you can...
http://php.net/manual/en/function.in-array.php

$a = array('7.1');
var_dump(in_array('7.10', $a, $STRICT=TRUE)); // false

I won't say PHP doesn't have it's faults, but dynamic typing is more feature than fault IMHO. Just use it properly.

I think you need to take another look at the Chrome Developer Tools, there is a hell of a lot more there than "futzing with css".

It was a demo flight, they are (were) shopping the aircraft around various airlines looking for buyers. The pilots would not be "familiar" with the terrain. This was not a public transport flight, it was a private flight.

These demo flights operate in, lets say, a manner designed to impress the passengers.

A flight down low up an incredibly scenic valley, is one way of impressing your passengers. Miss judging the space needed to get out of that valley, that's not quite so impressive :(

Really now, Business Intelligence is News for Nerds? No. No it's not. Next thing you'll be making SlashMarketing and filling the site with... MARKETERS, and if that's not a nightmare scenario for 99% of your present users, I don't know what is.
