I actually tried to approach this problem in my own apartment complex. The effort died almost immediately. Very few consumer wireless access points even expose Tx power as a configuration parameter at all, even buried in an "Advanced S

IMO, cost is a big factor here. Adding things like insulation, EM sheilding, or anything else other than the minimum needed water water and electrical lines to the inside of walls raises the cost of construction. So if it isn't require

In the high plains, sure. Those areas are natural grasslands; they were grasslands before European settlers arrived and started clear-cutting forests to make room for farmland. However, east of the high plains, before the Mississippi, I

I doubt that will happen. There are innumerable man-hours of engineering sunk into Windows, and it has made them lots of money. Unless there were compelling proof that continuing to develop and support Windows was costing them money, and en

I was going to argue that if one was going to include an MMX game, it might as well be X3, because it had a different ending than then Saturn/PSX port that more people have played. However, doing some searching, I can't find any e

That list seems a bit weighted towards JRPGs, though many are well known, and it seems like the SNES had several to choose from. As much as I must admit I have a moral obligation to complete every one that you mentioned (except Chrono Trige

At a cursory glance, it seems that Google or Google-owned sites make up a majority of the IPv6-enabled sites. Seems to me the numbers would be a lot lower without Google's work.
