So do it off the grid. Make a 12 volt circuit and buy some car appliances for your house or get a large scale inverter like a 1600 watter for like $150 and power some real appliances seperate from your home's connection to the power grid. You could run a small air conditioning unit in just your computer room hooked up to a large solar panel outside with a car battery or massive capacitor or something and it would only run when there was enough energy. That way it could cool off your hottest room and effectively make you take less energy from the grid to cool your house. And it would be crazy cheap to set up a couple 12 volt, 50-100 watt halogens or better yet, low wattage LED lights in just one room on a car battery/solar panel setup and have free light all day basically. And none of that would require sending anything back to the grid so no special equipment:)
but once it's transmitted, it's encrypted. They'd have to pick up the EM thingies from a chip inside the computer, right? I mean in modern times, we don't really have to worry about this at all, right? Cuz there's so much else being processed and sent down a bus by the processor that you'd never pick out the data accurately, and probably not from more than a millimeter away.
Well I guess it's time to throw in some fake bullshit data lol. Who knew I was interested in knitting, wooden clog dancing, and teraforming moons. Well the ad people know now lol.
I assume they mean they own 134.17.0.0 through 134.17.0.16, right? What's the big deal? If I owned 16 web servers, I'd have control over a block that size too. Even if they mean it goes up to 134.17.16.255 large web hosts can own that much too. Now if they stole all of 134.anything that'd be bad.
So is there an "I don't agree" button or cancel or something if you don't like the EULA? If so, wtf, kinda weak malware lol. If not, it's not a real EULA and won't stand up in court...not that it would anyway lol.
Then people still store flammable ethanol in their garages and houses. Remember how that went in the...umm...like 60's or whatever, I dunno, I wasn't alive back then. You know, during all the gasoline shortages when people stored dozens of gallons in their garages. It turned out to be a bit of a fire hazard lol. But if people can make their own fuel without having to ship fuel across the country to the gas stations, that'd save like twice the gasoline than people think. Plus it would employ mexicans at farms in their own crappy country and make it less crappy so they don't have to come here. And best of all, nobody will stop at gas stations anymore so the country-wide price of beef jerky will fall greatly and I'll be able to buy even more!
worse yet, this same page was available way back when the other story from this same site was on slashdot and yet they're acting like this is some new breaking news. I think they just split up the stories into 2 to get more people to their website now. Next will be the "how big is it" page that they also have up lol. Btw here's a little tip they can add without calling Miss Cleo: It'll fuck up your system:P
They'd be better off just rewriting all the stuff that's old and sucks in XP and leaving everything else like the basic design and functionality and call it XP2 instead of just extending XP. Then at least they could make some money. Or they should just give up except then people would probably be dumb enough to use macs instead of Linux and I think we all know that would be worse than anything Microsoft could ever put out.
They could play some sort of World of Warcraft...in space:P and call it World of Starcraft! But seriously, space ping pong would kick ass cuz it'd be like pong instead.
It would sound to me like it would run a heck of a lot colder than with 4. I mean it's designed to run at a decent temp with 4 cores running so with 3, it'll be really cold! If you underclock a processor to 75% it barely puts off any heat. Of course the 3 cores will still be maxing so it's different but it should be way cooler anyway. But of course that's a bigger problem than they think. I dunno how they're actually arranged but if 3 corners are hot and one not, plus the fact that it was a bad processor in the first place, these things are gonna fail so fast people are gonna be pissed! You don't heat a damaged straight from the factory chip unevenly!
Well I guess you get what you pay for. If you go for the cheapest of every single piece of hardware, you're going to eventually have something fail pretty quickly.
I don't even have to read the details to bet that you need an internet connection open every single time you open Office so it can contact the licensing server. If the time limit was kept locally, that'd be too hackable. So what about laptops? I guess you can't open your word documents if there's no wifi in your hotel. That'll go over great. Btw this whole process is about 10x more hackable than what they use now.
oh, so they strip off an electron instead of adding one? I thought ion drives negatively charged the particles before expelling them and you have to add one to do that. I thought adding one was what was impoosible.
I thought I learned in HS that no noble gasses could be ionized because all their electron shells were already perfectly full. How can Xenon run an ion drive?
Xenon isn't exactly in great supply. I think they might want to rethink that and design it with a more common material. But sweet that they're finally testing an actual ion drive.
sounds like a great place to visit. I can see the ad now..."Come see the beautiful, undisturbed coral reefs. Just don't go near the irradiated coconuts!"
If people simply know it's random, all terrorists have to do is send enough people at the same time and the chances are, one will get through. If they think they can sneak one set of people onto a plane with something bad by predicting the search pattern, at least they stand a chance of getting caught anyway. Now if they only searched non-natively english speaking people, then we've got something. Or better yet, just the arabs. Then again people try and smuggle drugs in, not just terroristy stuff so in the words someone on TV who I forgot "they'll just have to search everyone browner than Tiger Woods, Tiger not included" hehehe. Btw I'm not serious, then I'd be racist:P
Fuck the Joneses, I'm putting one on my Prius lol. Cuz you know, the power from moving would sooo turn the fan enough to run the car lol. Btw you failed to factor in that all the necessary parts being made in factories and using electricity to do it is factored into the amount of carbon emitted by making one of them but you'd have to factor that out if people using the product replace the power station. Plus those per item stats are bullshit anyway. They always treat them like they're the only part being shipped and stuff that adds on more carbon than it really makes per unit.
If you're not from the US, you should know that we have a federal law here that if someone else adds electricity to the grid, they have to get paid by the power company per killowatt-hour. So you pay what like a thousand for a decent wind turbine and feed power back into the grid and it pays for itself over time and makes you a lot of money in the long run. It's a great investment. So combine the fact that almost everyone is worried about global warming and wants to do something about it with the fact that you get paid to just let something stand in your yard, that explains why this is becoming so popular here.

And do you think Microsoft can't convince some country's group to object if theirs gets booted and the other one gets chosen?

that age makes more sense to me. Cuz with how much porn there is, it's at least a 12 year old male if not 15 lol.

You definitely have to get her a pie and carve out the pi symbol in it :D

If I write a game for them, I wanna go to the moon dammit!
They're gonna get sued by Wee Man from Jackass lol.
