The "multiple incarnations" does not refer to human-alien reincarnations but to Christ incarnating as alien to bring God's word to them.

Hi Haxamanish, How accurate is your clock based on your sense of North and Sun when it's sunny and you are in familiar territory? Half an hour? 15 minutes?

ok societal change will not happen overnight but individual energy requirement is negligable. learn qwerty or dvorak, all the same. use keyboard remapper software on an usb stick or web download if you are on another computer. dvorak is more comfortable for your fingers. look what happened when the phone keypad was used to enter text, a whole generation became very efficient on that keyboard layout.

May I be the second to say "AMEN!". Linux is always said to be the fastest most responsive desktop os on older hardare. Still xp can beat x/gnome/linux 2.6 on a low end machine, perhaps this scheduler will change it.

Perhaps the poster meant to truly "brick" the netbook instead of just making sure no sensitive data can get stolen from the hard drive. In this case autoflashing the rom/bios with something nasty under some condition can do the trick.

I had this for ages with Windows Mobile had this for ages with Tomeraider3 wikipedia database. Instead of using bzip2, it's more efficient and elegant to store the table in sqlite and use it's excellent sqlite3 compression.

For tagging files: Leap http://www.yepsoftware.com/leap/index.html DEVONthink Has import files and folders option, tag support and you get advanced search (boolean etc.) as well http://www.devon-technologies.com/products/devonthink/devonthink2.html

There is a OSX application specifically written for these kind of scenario's: DEVONthink. http://www.stevenberlinjohnson.com/movabletype/archives/000231.html It has the Abby OCR engine built-in, a web server and an extremely smart search filter, which is able to find related documents based on metrics like keyword frequency.

This kind of articles, really really cool. But why the laptop casing, why not make it into a wearable? LED display mounted on left lower arm, chorded keypad on the right lower arm.

there are custom dvorak layouts for different languages. that said, in my language dutch, letter frequency is similar, different layout wouldn't add much speed so i just use standard dvorak with u and i switched.
you can optimize layout for your specific keyboard use, something which might happen in the future when we'll type with brain patterns.

There was a program Win3d that enabled z800's use with ati. nvidia is a better combination though.

Excellent, I have been waiting to use my z800 with linux, in the meantime xp works ok. Would the driver be easy to port it to OSX?

From my tests the webkit nightlies perform the fastest on javascript, significantly faster then chrome. safari 3.2 doesn't contain the latest js performance optimizations.
