Massive Global Warming Fraud Exposed at CRU |
 vote
 |
|
~168MB of data (~65MB compressed) of email, documents, and data from the Climate Research Unit's computers tell a sorry tale of collusion, fraud, and manipulated data. There are even comments in Fortran source code documenting logic that deals with modified data. The (allegedly) Russian hackers who liberated this information should be given a Nobel Peace prize as a 'global warming' offset to Al Gore's prize!
In the emails, these UN-funded scientists talk about deleting data under FOIA request, faking data for journals such as Nature, conspiring to keep opposing science out of peer-reviewed journals (which they controlled the editorial boards), using "tricks" to "hide the cooling [period]" etc. read more...

Multi-column layout generators |
 vote

There are obvious advantages to use tableless layout in web page design. Someone selected table design because it's too time consuming to get css layout to work. Even the designers of CSS standard think it's difficult. That's why there comes up with new syntax in CSS3 on columns. But this will change. The layout generators newly launched will benefit every real web designers. The layout uses only CSS2 so it's compatible with all browers. It will be an easy step to design, read more... |

An open letter to Blizzard Management |
 vote
 |

Congratulations on your wildly successful game, World of Warcraft. As a PVP strategy game designer myself, I'd like to point out one of the characteristics of your game that sometimes goes unnoticed but is key to its success.
You have created a consistent environment where we can all play in our own way. People say WoW is casual-friendly. I think it is freedom-friendly. We each are free to play with as much or as little structure as we see fit.
The fact that people with such wildly varying play styles and interests can find satisfaction in your world is the ever-present principle that has led to WoW's broad appeal.
I've seen the argument many times that 'WoW is a PVE game'. WoW is much more than that. WoW will always consist of a mostly PVE environment. But to me, the PVE world is simply part of the environment where I can partake as much -- or as little -- as I want.
Personally, I don't like highly structured PVE encounters with considerable -- and required -- multi-player coordination. Fortunately for me, you've created multiple tiers of progressively more structured PVE encounters. I occasionally do 5-man instances and I've even done a few 10-man raids, but I quickly grow tired of the overhead and bored of scripted encounters. I spend far more time in the non-instanced PVE world.
Similarly, battleground PVP and arena PVP have very different styles of play that appeal to very different players. With arenas, the structure and overhead of communication and coordination, the creation and maintenance of a team, the scheduling of play time, and the composition analysis and re-comping of a team are all demands that detract from the fun -- for some. Others use their management and analysis skills, their knowlege of other classes, and their self-discipline to set themselves apart in arenas.
Battlegrounds, on the other hand, are available to everyone any time. The game handles the creation of teams and you can communicate and coordinate as much or as little as you see fit. Battlegrounds are low-overhead PVP fun, on demand.
Please don't make the decision to forever lump battlegrounds and arena into a single vision of PVP. Please don't let someone's vision of 'integrated PVP' dictate and limit how players can have fun in your game. Separate the requirements of battlegrounds and arenas and let people do either or both -- without arbitrary interdependencies. Envision it as multiple tiers of PVP; non-instanced, battlegrounds, and arenas. And then let their rewards stand alone. Give battlegrounds their own tier of gear again, free from requirements of arena points and ratings. Let battlegrounds reward gear of sufficient quality to keep -- and grow -- the huge battleground player base. |

Wireless Antenna Types |
 vote
 |
|
There are three main categories of antennas: - Omni-directional - Omni-directional antennas radiate RF in a fashion similar to the way a table or floor lamp radiates light. They are designed to provide general coverage in all directions.
- Semi-directional - Semi-directional antennas radiate RF in a fashion similar to the way a wall sconce is designed to radiate light away from the wall or the way a street lamp is designed to shine light down on a street or a parking lot, providing a directional light across a large area.
- Highly-directional - Highly-directional antennas radiate RF in a fashion similar to the way a spotlight is designed to focus light on a flag or a sign. Each type of antenna is designed with a different objective in mind.

Flash Memory Tutorial |
 vote
 |
|
Flash memory is a form of EEPROM (Electrically Erasable Programmable Read-Only Memory) that allows multiple memory locations to be erased or written in one programming operation. In other terms, it is a form of rewritable memory chip that, unlike a RAM(Random Access Memory) chip, power supply is not required to hold the contents. It is commonly used in memory cards, USB flash drives, MP3 players, digital cameras and mobile phones. Flash memory is also an example of a Non-Volatile Read Write Memory (NVRWM).

Free Linux shell accounts |
 vote
 |
|
A shell account is a personal account that gives a user access to a Unix shell on a remote server, usually accessed through SSH (and historically telnet). A shell account can be used for many different purposes because many different programs can be run on the shell. It might be used to try out another operating system, running IRC clients or bots, compile and run source code and scripts, to host websites, or to use e-mail services. It might be possible to run programs on the server even while not connected, using background jobs or programs such as the GNU screen terminal multiplexer.
Most servers have policies in place on the accounts that limit different kind of resources, like disk usage (Disk quota) or processes.
On some free shell accounts services, if there is no login to a particular account for a long period of time, that account may get automatically deleted. Free shell account services often do not allow background processes. read more... |
