You know, we're engineers some of us? Let's "run the numbers" ....

Assume walking is about the same metabolic equivalent as riding a stationary bike lazily (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metabolic_equivalent), you expend about 50W more or less. So a 10W shoe is going to make it about 20% more "difficult".

Hard to say how that will "feel". "Walking on sand" seems to about sum it up.

Don't worry, all the controls are in the window, leaving you a 150 by 150 pixel region to view your image.

Can't you get something like 10 hours in a MiG-25 for that? That's enough to get a type rating.

Remember to use a different number from the rest of your neighbors.

"Earth Two Moons Once May Have Had" ....

We don't buy SSDs because they are more reliable (they don't seem to be in our large RAID arrays), but because they are faster than HDDs.

Because it wasn't the building that were damaged; they had rolling brownouts due to the nuke plants destruction.

So data centers without backup power were in trouble, and --- wait, why is this news?

Or make the PS auto-sense the required voltage. I dumpster-dived a Targus laptop supply a few years back. Their absurdly overpriced tips simply include a resistor which feeds back a sense voltage to the PS though an additional lead in the cable, so with the addition of a trimmer resistor heat-shrinked into the power cable I now have a power supply that (with the aid of a voltmeter) will deliver between 9 and 20-something volts. This kind of feedback can be built into a PS for cheap.

This is going to be obsolete soon. We have 3G in most of the undergound SF Bay Area BART, and, sooner or later, WiFi (it is in trial now). I am sure other cities can claim the same.

Some urban legend is circulating that this will work for radiation, but it will definitely work for WiFi interference: Set a bag of microwave popcorn out on the counter. If it starts popping, you've probably got WiFi interference problems.

What are you, a butler on some English grand estate? A doctor or bike shop owner isn't your "better", hopefully you regard them as some kind of fellow professional. If you enter into a business relationship with some kind of class warfare in mind, you're going to get treated like dirt.

This'll feet your be somehow use fill. It actuarily pickaxe the current word mast of the tines.

The teledildonic French kiss adapter, discussed yesterday, might be useful in addition. Do people with these disabilities have more precise control over their tongue or their heads? It's probably a matter of personal preference. There are also those who communicate by puffing into a device, either in morse or some other code.

The government and press is so unreliable that the population is subject to panics:
