22JunSpaceShipOne

space ship oneThanks to a few brave men and corporate sponsorship, space will no longer be the realm of mere governments and their institutions, but also big fat corporations that will charge people ridiculously high amounts of money for a brief barf trip into space.

Space Ship One (what a charmingly original name) was succesfully sent into space (the internationally accepted 100KM or 60Miles) by traveling up to 62.21 miles and became the first private built object to do so since that one time i kicked my brother for recording Conan The Barbarian over my Guyver tape (long story…way in the past…).

The pilot (Mike Melvill) once being weightless, proved this by using the scientifically accepted method of opening a bag of M&M’s and watching them float through the cockpit.

    Hey T…
    I’ve been reading that “How To Become A Hacker” page you linked on your blog..I’ve been reading it for a while and I think I’d like to get started on something like that…my question is, would I have to get a new computer? cuz yeah (as you probably already know) I’m using a Compaq with Microsoft Windows, I know it might sound dumb to you but I dont know alot about how this works..

    VMWare
    Buy or download a copy of VMWare Workstation and install your linux as a VM (Virtual Machine) session on it, if you don’t want to dedicate an entire computer to Linux. here’s a screenshot of what it looks like and it should give you an idea of what you can do with it. Btw. do you need to know what you’re learning for a profession or do you just have way too much time on your hands?
