I doubt that, from what I can tell this radio transmission uses AM high frequency. MF/HF (which are used by this and other typical radio broadcasts) won't travel that much through water. For communication with submarines VLF and ELF is used as it has decent penetration, plus because of the very low transmission rates (data rates) that can be achieved audio/voice transmission isn't possible so they have to rely on simple text messages.

See this as an example.

Bioshock, console port. Fallout 3, console port. Dragon Age, console port. (Dragon Age is probably the only one that is on an equal footing, all the others are after thoughts) Mass Effect, console port, etc.

Well, I guess that's that then.
Can whoever is last out turn off the lights as they leave?

You assume On2 is a small dinky company, but it isn't. It's a part of Google now remember. I'm sure Google hold more than their fair share of patents too to turn this into a game of patent nuclear warfare.

$290 million is chump change? And that's just one of the cases MS lost. $290 million there, another couple of hundred here and it all adds up.

That won't invalidate the patents though, after all how many millions has MS and various other large companies been paying out in court to small patent holding companies?

You know, On2 has been around a while now in the video codec game. I wonder how many patents they hold that MPEG-LA are violating with their video codecs. If MPEG-LA goes up against Google/On2 chances are they'll retaliate with patents that MPEG-LA is infringing upon.

I'm surprised no one has thought of this (at least all the news posts I've seen), that MPEG-LA may be opening themselves up to some pretty serious patent retaliation.

No, you're thinking of the Furry engine. It offers ultra realistic fur simulation, I hear it's quite popular with the Second Life crowd.

I prefer "Modern Lawfare" or "Call Of Jury".

Or you could combine.. "Call Of Jury: Modern Lawfare".

If someone gave me a free paper (btw, in the UK there's a free paper called the Metro) and then proceeded to punch me in the eye or insulted me I'd be pretty entitled to call them douchey. Without being douchey myself.

Also, you may as well just said..

The population of London is expected to drop below 50% White by 2012. Would you want to let that happen with your own capital?

Do you vote BNP/UKIP by any chance?

Then you don't go building a uranium processing plant into a mountain.

There are only two reasons you want to build a uranium processing plant in a mountain:

A. It's bomb proof, in which case why are you worried about it getting bombed if it's purely for peaceful processes?
B. You're Dr. Evil.

I think we can safely say it's likely A, although I wouldn't rule out B with Ahmadinejad.

Umm, the reason it exists is because as you may have heard Germany had a little bit of bother with nationalism around the 1930's and 1940's. It has nothing to do with social progressives and all to do with that early to mid 20th century problem.

Regardless of whether the German government is left, right or liberal that law would still exist.

Actually the user interface to Lotus Symphony is pretty decent. (better than OO's anyway)

Its problems are that it takes an ice age to start and its OO.org code is from OpenOffice 2 so it's always playing catch up for the file formats.

What's needed is someone to do similar what Apple did with khtml. Get something like koffice, improve the code even more, stick a good user interface on there and make sure it launches relatively quickly.

At the moment i'm in the process of gradually moving over the company I work for from Office 2000 to Open Office. The single consistent biggest complaint (apart from a certain office suite file compatibility) is the speed (and lack thereof) of its launch time.

I'm sorry, but when you've got the BNP commenting about how they should form an alliance with UKIP because of the similarity in their policies then they're pretty pretty obviously close to the line racist if not outright racist.
