I just ordered parts for a gaming machine the other day, and it'll be running Linux. A surprising number of games run on it directly now, and Wine works for the ones I care about that don't. There's now absolutely…
I suspect that a big limitation in shift speed is often the angular mass of the crankshaft and flywheel - that energy has to go somewhere in an upshift, and doing that quickly on a typical car with wide gearing and a…
In my experience (homeschooled from about 7 to 17), there are at least two, both explicitly Christian, but one pretty far out there and one much more moderate. To be fair, this was in Kansas and Nebraska. I get along…
It probably depends on the school, but where I am it sounds most like a WF - withdraw while failing. For almost all purposes it counts as an F.
It looks like it has quite a few more students than it should, and he's using every excuse he can to drop people. This isn't very nice, but I can at least understand his position. Then I saw this bit: "If you miss a…
You forgot the best part: not having to deal with javascript.
There's now a box in the lower-left informing me that I can view 20 articles in a month before they'll put up a paywall. I don't recall ever seeing anything about a paywall before. If that's actually new, Bezos sure…
Is this really that common an issue? It seems like anyone who's at a level where they're using rm regularly should know that that's a command you think before issuing. If they didn't, then that's exactly why you have…
No rev limiter (at least not that I saw), at least one potentially peaky (high-RPM biased) timing parameter (intake valve), lots of parts that aren't built to take high RPM, and a lightweight flywheel. If it were to…
Higher standard, yes, but people will err, and not all errors deserve the same response.
It's depressing how short the reformed list is.
Why not implement said extremely strong encryption algorithm by default, before it becomes an issue?
It's not nearly as nice an interface, though.
So much of any comparison like this is about performance, but I really don't think that's as important as it used to be, and that's coming from someone who generally uses slow computers and optimizes software until they…
I've never used a Google account with mine (Nexus One, Cyanogenmod 7), and I get along just fine. The main trouble is in getting new apps, but I only use 3 that didn't come with the OS anyway, and those were all easy…
Of course, that's what they'd say if they had broken it. If they hadn't, then saying this would be counterproductive. Alternate 1: Since they're keeping encrypted stuff forever, they're somehow OK with not getting…
Couldn't a 90nm transistor switch at 8 GHz or so in this kind of application? I'm not sure of the exact numbers, but at 1/16th the area occupied, capacitance is much lower, letting it switch far faster. Just making up…
In that example, CPU B's adder can also be clocked twice as fast. If so, it's getting twice the work done and using twice the power (ignoring cache misses and the like for the moment). If it's clocked the same as A,…
The problem is that clock doesn't really mean anything concrete in terms of real world performance. It's strictly a marketing thing. For an example, what if a chip used a 10 GHz clock for distribution, and divided it…
