It's in the right place, but will it behave the right way?
When those mainboards with extra flash for vista were announced I hoped for it being accessible directly via linux mtd. Without reading the article I still assume that it will again be just another hdd simulator that doesn't allow the os to do the wear levelling or map the storage directly into the accessible memory.
Too bad. Since Debians live-helper made building live systems easy I'm running my desktop and laptop from squashfs anyways so I'd love to see them do execute in place,too. http://elinux.org/Application_XIP
talk to the package maintainers of a couple of distributions instead. packages.debian.org packages.ubuntu.com etc. should help you find the maintainers email addresses.
the nvidia-glx package (which you'll find after asking your package management system for nvidia or geforce drivers) suggests nvidia-settings here. the default is to install suggests. and that creates a nice menu entry in the system -> configuration menu. Yes, it'd be easier if nvidia supported randr, but the distributors did a very nice job of making it pretty easy.
to quote the article: "In reality, as a LongPen press release delicately put it, "legal complications" made it impossible for Black to appear in person. Black isn't allowed to leave the U.S. because of bail restrictions following his conviction on fraud and obstruction of justice."

Weird. Every time I stick a piece of hardware in a Windows box it doesn't work. Then I install the drivers from the CD and it still doesn't work. Next I get the drivers from the vendors site and then it sometimes works. In the final step I figure out the chipset and get a driver from its creator and then it works most of the time.
With Linux all I do is check about the state of the hardware support before buying and most of the time it just works without doing any of the above.
So we take a sheet of paper and use a knife to simulate the etching. Now we fill the resulting gap with glue as an electrolyte. The result still doesn't look at all like two papers glued on top of each other to me.
That's probably the worst brushless dc controller ever built. As you can see in the video the circuit cannot recover from too low rpm of the motor. He mentions better waveforms at the bottom of the site, though. A proper sensorless BLDC controller measures the back EMF at the undriven coils and uses that information to figure out which coils to drive. Also you don't need a common ground for the coils, instead the polarity should switch when both ends of a single coil have the same potential. Of course it's possible that each of the coils actually has a third contact in the middle. Properly driving a sensorless bldc motor is quite an interesting challenge for microcontroller programming. You'd need the analogue input and 3 PWM channels. Probably 3 digital outputs, too to switch the polarity. In other words: I'm taking apart a harddrive right now.
I am not saying that I want Red China to win (I actually want them to lose)
Huh? What are you talking about? Who do you think is at war there? Can't you just let the chinese people figure out their future themselves? Afaict we in the western countries, and possibly the whole world, benefit from their progress. And China obviously is changing it's political system.
Or we could infer that the system was used for its purpose by the attacker. He signed those packages. Redhat looked at the logs, no other packages were signed. So the passphrase is still very likely to be save.
The fuel cell would power not only the camera body but also all accessories attached to it
looking at the picture I'm pretty sure that's not what the patent covers. Instead all accessory will include it's own fuel cell.
The patent is about distributing the H2 to the different attachments.
quoting from the patent application to back that up:
... a connection device connected to the electronic equipment body, independent power generation cells each disposed to the electronic equipment body and to the connection device, and a fuel storage vessel disposed to the electronic equipment body, in which fuel from the fuel storage vessel is suppliable to each of the independent power generation cells.
But I sure am glad this happened. I'm a rather loyal AMD customer. And this should give them a chance to recover from buying ATI.
I also hope that it will stop the craziness of having a heatsink filling up 2 slots and additionally needing a fan. At the very least the power consumption for us that only occasionally put load on the gpu should drop significantly. It's pretty weird to have a warmer heatsink on the gpu than the cpu after a long compiler run where nothing but some text was scrolled by the gpu. At the moment the GPU stays hot even if the monitor switched to standby.
Maybe you still have a skateboard in the basement? Or rollerskates? A BMX? The most important thing is that you are having fun.
Then find a way to do it someplace where no critical mass to make you feel uncomfortable gets together.
Personally I chose BMX Flatland. I hardly ever find anyone to do it with. And there always is a parking lot empty enough to just go out and give the same trick try after try after try... Most introverted sport I can think of, too. It's just you and your bike.
I read somewhere that Adolf Hitler was really into Metropolis, and that he held it up as an example that all filmmakers should strive for. Food for thought.
That's not food for thought, it just makes you and now me loose the argument by Godwin's law.
Just because Hitler did/liked/said/wrote something doesn't automatically attach a moral value to that something.
So I should be punished more for taking a dump on George W's lawn than on yours? I always thought it's what you are doing that decides the punishment not who you are doing it to. And I wouldn't want it to be any other way.

how is putting aging into context with evolution and darwinism interesting?

No need to panic just because things change

It helps us that learned english late in their lives to figure out what word to look up in a dictionary.
I agree. unfair moderation.
one time pads don't help against brute forcing encryption. They just prevent brute forcing authentication.

According to the wine project the problem with osx is that apples X implementation is badly broken.

Down syndrome can be spotted under a microscope. Just count the chromosomes. If you find 3 of the 21. you spotted down syndrome.
If that is all this new technology can do it's hardly worth mentioning.
