This was supposed to have been published yesterday but I spent the whole day unplugged and at a local hookah bar.
Using advanced radar imagery, archaeologists are discovering more of this sprawling, ancient city.
A recently unearthed ancient forest in a Hungarian coal mine will give climatologists and scientist a glimpse into the climate of ancient Eurasia and the Earth as a whole. As much as this is a look into the past, it’s a race against time since the protective sand and coal are now gone and the trees will quickly erode
Congress withdrew the US in a global math and science exam that is used to measure our educational progress against those of other countries. This should come as no surprise to anyone that keeps tabs on the nation’s sad state of education. Whatever happened to Bush’s master plan of No Child Left Behind? Seems our whole country was just left behind.
A judge ruled that Novell still owns the copyrights that SCO claims to be under its control in the UNIX source code. This was discussed about 2 years ago but I’m guessing this is the final judgment in the case that we all saw coming. Similarly to Microsoft, SCO is claiming that it owns certain IP (intellectual property) in the UNIX code base but has yet to ever produce evidence of such and clings to its false claims. Funny, people stated the same thing when they sued IBM…and lost.
I find it hard to believe that any state above the Mason-Dixon actually has a written law against blasphemy and in a state whose past is riddled with rebellion.
Very insightful and reasonably smart questions with poignantly smart answers
PowerTOP is an Intel-backed application that aims to lower power consumption on Linux-based computers in order to consume less energy and have a smaller carbon footprint. I remember needing something like this a little over a year ago when I was running ion3 and bare minimums on a Linux install on my laptop and the battery still only lasted an average of 3 hours. With applications that consume little memory and CPU cycles, you’d think that you would squeeze out more battery life but you’d be wrong!
That’s it for this last week!
