The android standards were written so you wouldn't install package managers & run native programs. You're supposed to be running Java Xlets. What's wrong with you people?

Probably because sleep modes don't work on almost all laptops.

You can preallocate on ext3 by doing

dd if=/dev/zero of=$OUT_PATH bs=1024 seek=$SIZE count=1

No funky system call required.

Even with all the digitization & virtualization, the physical world is king. People get home from whatever they were doing at 5pm on Sunday. People have to physically be commuting in another few hours. Packages are not physically shipped on weekends, so people wait until the last time they can place an order before the next shipment.

All Oobs did was announce his intention of replacing Ares I with EELV's. Then that exploded into headlines about merging NASA & the air force. Now that has exploded into commissioning studies into civil space programs of any kind. His original 1 sentence must now be creating 1 million jobs.

This is the first time we've seen a rocket stacked horizontally in broad daylight. Looks like he ran out of credit before the concrete & roof was finished.

He was writing his diary as a redhat employee since 1997. Too bad he got caught up with that welsh fad & then the business school fad of the early 2000's. Hopefully he realizes the value of low level programming again.

It doesn't sound any different than Lockheed or NGC getting $3 billion. The concept drawings from any of these companies are equally far from the real thing. Maybe the CEO of SpaceX is worth a little more than the Lockheed CEO. It's not the populist access to space we envisioned 5 years ago. We only think it is because Elon Musk says so.

This is how mp3.com began its demise.

He's also talking about extending human life to 200 years. The guy's a genious. The plan involves releasing $700 billion to a new life extension department headed by Hank Paulson.

After 8 years of crews testing obscure basic science, they finally have the first tentative approval for the most obvious experiments some time in the future. Incredible.

He said he was going to cut NASA's budget to fund preschool businesses & cancel the moon program. He's a traditional social reform president. What do U expect?
