I wonder if this could mean people living in an area with lots of storms have a significantly higher risk of cancer. High altitudes do have risks:

"A seven hour airplane trip exposes passengers to 0.02 mSv of radiation, which is a fraction of the exposure of a standard Chest x-ray (0.1 mSv). Domestic airline pilots are exposed to an additional 2.2 mSv per year, about the same dose as a brain CT." http://www.xrayrisk.com/faq.ph...

"the high-altitudes expose climbers to an extra 1milliSievert (mSv) of radiation, which is five times more than the average annual exposure in a nuclear power plant." http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sci... How much mSv is a gamma ray burst from a thunderstorm?

You could use your android or linux phablet or phone as Tor proxy and gateway. Phablets and phone's are made to be portable, this device only makes sense as a dedicated in place hardware router and for that you could do it yourself and use a raspberry pi.

I can run basic unix utilities and vim very well by using ssh and logging in locally on my jailbroken iphone, it has a unix base after all. I believe there are phones you can hack and install linux on. Add a bluetooth keyboard. An ipad mini with slim keyboard cover fits in my coat pocket, i use voip for my phone.

I've got a very old futuremind sw powered mindmachine, which uses the parallel port and a SB AWE 32 for it's sound. Neither can be emulated. I was thinking of recording the sound and film the LED output, make an mp4 out of it which I can then play and watch on my OLED Z-800 HMD. No time to look into it unfortunately. The same goes for the hundreds of 80's en '90s tv shows on VHS which are gathering dust.

That's one of the reasons why I focus on boardgames instead of computergames, like reading a book compared to watching a movie on average it can stimulate the mind more as the game design is usually more intricate and it is more social! I can recommend playing Puerto Rico and Imperial 2030, also see: BoardGameGeek ranking.

There's a free VMWare baremetal hypervisor based on ESXi, works ok.

Hi Joost, you confuse the iTunes for iPhone with iTunes for OSX or Windows. Subscribe to rss url is not possible in iTunes for iPhone or iPod.

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.
