IBM Retakes Fastest Supercomputer Title

Posted by michael on from the more-power dept.

dshaw858 writes "BBC News reports that IBM has unveiled its new Blue Gene/L machine. The Blue Gene project already has two of the top ten supercomputers in the world. Big news for IBM! I wonder what great things they can calculate in just seconds now... maybe I should get a stronger PGP key."

    IBM can use their computers to help the next Nazi party kill Jews. They have a bad track record, and we shouldn't support them.

    Well, you know what IBM would use it for. To bake Jews. They did it in WW2 and the same idealogies are rampant in IBM now, as then. Boycott IBM until they pay reparations and change their ways.

    No you don't.

    I know more than you think.

    Put down the joint before you hurt someone.

    Good advice. Unfortunately, for your ego.. I didn't need it.
