You mean sort of like what Good Ol Games does with old PC games and Dosbox?

Easy. The U.S. falls into unending internal warfare while other countries adopt this solution.

How much effort would it require to move the "left overs" out of Lagrange? Or do we start fusing the remains at Lagrange to start building a habitable facility?

United implies some sort of commitment. How about "The States of Apathy".

Will they tweet the attack the USS Liberty? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/USS_Liberty_incident

So much nay saying and negativity. And all of it pointing to straw men. I wonder what the next generation will find despicable.

>>You are now stuck on the current version of PS
So what? I use CS2 and while some of the new toys are cool, they're still just toys. There a some tools that might make my workflow a little faster, but nothing that is revolutionary. Certainly nothing that's worth the cost.
Also, the OP isn't betting his company on luck/hope. The software he purchased works. So where's the bet?

The quoted text about the Anton character is downright funny when you consider how Card has gone on record saying that he doesn't believe in subtext in writing.

Firefox with Adblock and Noscript. No Flash or java installed on the OS. Chrome (with its built-in flash) for Youtube and the handful of sites I visit that require flash. leave FF running for weeks, never uses more than 300 meg. With this approach I no longer have any stability issues. The only downside is my kids bitching about not being able to play Minecraft. Oh the pain!

Huh. Win 7 Ultimate runs like a slippery fish on my netbook. In fact it runs so well that I'll not even bother installing a linux OS. Not trolling, just saying. Of course when I bought the netbook it ran like shit. Then I wiped XP and all the HP bloatware and installed Win 7. I was going to make it multi-boot, but since it runs so smoothly (and on 1 GB of ram) it's just not worth the hassle.

Thanks for the thrice daily dose of Apple propaganda. Stop being Apple's shill. They do not do news worthy things everyday.

Because PDF's were designed to be PRINT files. They are NOT screen friendly at all. Unless you're screen is a printer. If you really want to read PDF's on your screen, then good for you, but PDF's are not web friendly. PDF's are also not small screen friendly (i.e. - portable devices) unless the PDF is specifically formatted for the specific screen you're viewing it on. I can understand why Mozilla wants to add a PDF viewer, but I do not agree with them doing it. Quite frankly, a plug-in that loads an external viewer is fine (I use Foxit and have yet to have ANY problems with it). The reason I would prefer Mozilla to not do this is that it isn't needed and as such, takes away time resources from more important improvements to Firefox.

Yes, Jacques Valee. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jacques_Vallee

Yes. Now the world must look to France for intelligent use of nuclear power. We're fucked.

From an economic P.O.V. how effective would this tech be for countries that do not have a decent power infrastructure? This may not be viable for those ensconced in the comfortable western economies, but perhaps if you live in a hut on the edge of a desert in Africa..?
