Signal Blocking, in that I prevent a power signal from reaching any wifi device in the environment that I control.
the spammers have made it through the doors.
the tablet will be rooted in less than 24 hours.
I predict that this will be the first android device to exceed 75% of all devices rooted and a non crippled version of the OS installed.
Cannot confirm, but here's the video that that still was taken from: http://vimeo.com/19255226
Maybe someone that know's him can take a look at it?
they're trying to get rid of the nerds.
Seriously, tho, it looks a lot like an apple approved design, and that's not a compliment.
What ever happened to `if it aint broke, don't fix it'?

Seriously? 5 seconds to generate a comment preview??? at the rate that all of the news sites are redesigning, I'll have switched to bing/yahoo news by the end of July.
at that resolution the pixel sensors are closer together than the wavelengths of visible light, and each photon will be triggering multiple pixels, thus reducing the apparent resolution.
five options == 20% chance of an accurate answer. randomizers would be under-represented by 500%. (but I could be telling you a lie)
With developers geographically dispersed all over the globe, and often not having a regular computer to work from, I'm looking for a web-based collaborative IDE. open source is preferable, and with our budget, free is a requirement.
Does such a beast even exist?
well, since I am neither gainfully employed or engaged in a productive task, I default to the No answer.
Mikrotik Routers, despite some bad press, are good. They are inexpensive, can be build with commodity hardware, and easily handle that level of traffic.
hardware specs on mine: 2.4Ghz P-IV, 512MB Rambus RAM, 1 * T100 Ethernet port (motherboard)connected to modem, 5 * 10/100/1000 ports (NICs) connected to home network and one 802.11g wifi NIC (operating as a hotspot), 1 256MB flash card in IDE adapter.
FIOS connection gives me 60*5 with one IP, and regularly sustains that with as many as four separate machines running BT at any given time, 2 public game servers, as well as various other uses. 60+ firewall rules, full NAT with 20+ port forwarding rules, it runs like a champ.
If you already have the hardware laying around doing nothing, go ahead and give them a look.
I'm not so sure that's true. You would probably never see a human that is completely resistant to fire, but after a few generations I think you would certainly see humans with a greater ability to recuperate from burns. Over time you would absolutely see humans with skin and physiology more resistance to heat damage.
It wouldn't happen quickly, but I think you would eventually see selection for some qualities that improve the organism's ability to survive fire.
I share your anachronistic devotion to truth and accuracy and reality. But those things are out of fashion. They've been replaced with hate and greed and envy and the self absorbtion that is called "awareness".
To care about the truth is to fail to fit into modern society. Your "common ground" is very uncommon these days.
Living on Earth may be expensive, but it includes an annual free trip around the Sun.
