Is it true that ordinary computers dont work in space? 7

wisemancumth asked:


I heard once, but on a rather old show that regular computers dont work in space because they are effected by cosmic rays and magnetism. So if thats the case what do they do to make them work? Is that why you dont see astronauts using laptops and blackberries?

Do kids under the age of 16 use computers for something other than gaming? 12

Lirenza asked:


I am writing a letter to our local library. They are planning to no longer allow children under the age of sixteen use their computers. This is because they believe that the kids are only using the computers to play games. I am taking a survey and hopefully they will consider my letter. Please state your opinion. That would help me out a lot!! Thanks!

How do I set up two computers to allow incoming remote desktop connections on my network? 1

Deeps asked:


I have a bunch of computers on my network. I have configured my router to route any incoming remote desktop connection to my server. However, I want to be able to remote in to another one of my machines too. If I add that to the list additionally, how is the router going to know which machine I want to route in to. How do I configure my router to allow me to remote in to more than one computer on my network ? I have a DLink DIR – 655 router.
