My favorite how-to was the article that described changing io.sys & command.com so that it would load altcfg.sys instead of config.sys (thus making virus that altered config.sys/autoexec.bat useless).

As opposed to posting a link to another board that has am IMAGE of the url; (madness!!)

here ya go:

Really editors, was that so hard? My new-years resolution? Find a site that is as good as Slashdot used to be.

'Greenhouse gas emmisions'?
Does this include the source power generation? Of course not, because some regions use wind/solar/nuclear, which have a vastly different greenhouse gas emmsiions then others.

Why not use SIMPLE standard units. It's up to the buyers to know the source of the fuel.
N/m@0-10km/h, 11-50km/h, 51-80km/h, 81-100km/h

All cars can compete on this scale. If a 3000kg SUV takes 40kN/m to go from 0-10km/h, and an all electric 1000kg Prius takes 5kN to achieve the same task, we can figure out what is better.

They should also mandate the energy density be displayed at all fuel pumps/charging stations.

e.g.
diesel: 1000N/L
gasoline: 300N/L
natural gas: 200N/L
(my mind is fuzzy on how to apply this to all-electric, but plenty of the folks on here are smarter then I am), but my point still stands.

Label everything based on the one common denominator: energy.

I work for a waste collection company. We collect and SELL over a THOUSAND tonnes of paper products every month.

Things might be different in your area but here our multi-million company is quiet profitable from it.

Paper/Cardboard is like any other commodity. the price fluctuates.

UAV 'hard to hit' and/or find - check

Ladies and Gentleman; let me present to you your new ICBM replacement (and don't worry about treaties with the Russians, these qualify as airplanes not missles, so we are clear to rebuild our stockpiles!)

The sky is falling!!!

If these people/companies don't care enough to have upgraded to SP3, they won't care that support for the OS has ended either.

Damn you are right. Now my life does suck.

One of my favorite quotes relates to this;

Credit goes to Mark Twain (IIRC).

"When you have a watch/clock you always know what time it is. When you have 2 you are never quite sure."

It would seem to me, that anybody from Western Cultures that has an IQ over 100 would not want to live/work in a country like China because of its history of Human Rights violations and general intolerance for anti-state viewpoints.

If you are dumb enough not to know better I understand, but an intelligent person can surely see past the paycheck.

Its about fracking time.

Hey industry (Sony I am looking at you) repeat after me:

Open standards help EVERYBODY!

Can anybody tell me why ARM won the battle vs AMD's Geode processor?

If they didn't 'see/steal/copy' anything, was anything actually spied upon?

The mens rea was the attempt, but if there is no actus rea did they really break the law?

These are constructed using 100% pasive heating/cooling in mind utilizing old tires as a thermopile/heatsink. They are also designed to incorporate water recycling, solar/wind power generation.

There is only one small/minor/insignificant problem; our 3 primary carriers (Bell, Telus, and Rogers) have incompatable networks!
This has improved slightly thanks to the recent Vancouver Olympics, but still the lions share of the phones are incompatable.

Rogers: GSM -850MHz & 1900MHz
Telus: CDMA and limited HSPA -800MHz & 1900MHz
Bell: CDMA and limited HSPA -850MHz & 1900MHz

Unless you have an awesome phone that supports 800MHz and 850MHz you are SOL for voice communication and have to buy a new phone if you wanted to hop from one carrier to another.
Another fly in the ointment, even if your phone is capable (i.e. Nokia N900)Bell & Nokia do not operate on 'SIM' cards like the GSM based world+dog do, so you are SOL again.

They should have been mandated to all jump straight to LTE and drop this incompatable bullshit.
