But once you lose the x86 tag Intel would just be one of many vendors
Yea, just like all the other vendors firmly established on 22nm and owning their own fabs.
Wait, who are these other vendors, again? As I recall, AMD is just one of a very few comfortably at 28nm, and a lot of others are a few gens behind that. Intel is in front because, whatever problems they have, they still make the best CPUs out there and they still have the best tech.
HP's printers by and large are STILL superior to competition; its just the drivers which are a wreck. Of course, Canon UFR drivers arent much better...
Im pretty sure you cant just run ARM Wine on an ARM processor and have it run x86 binaries-- Wine is not a virtualization engine nor a CPU emulator. x86 instructions still need an x86 processor to run them AFAIK.
Perhaps I was not clear. Bing datamines; thats its entire purpose. MS owns Bing, and also owns Hotmail (now Outlook). Historically, Hotmail ALSO served email-relevant ads, as does yahoo and basically everyone. Google simply was the first to do so.
Perhaps Outlook does not now, but that hardly changes the gross hypocrisy of it all.
Just going to put this out there:
* Im pretty sure the coal plants didnt continue running after the tsunami.
* Im also pretty certain noone died from either coal pollution, or from radiation after the tsunami (3 frontline workers got "concerning" doses, were released from hospital after a day)
* That there were functional problems with the plant design doesnt mean that the concept of "get energy from nuclear fission" needs to be thrown out the window.
* For all of their problems, the number of deaths from nuclear energy over the last ~60 years is far lower than the number of deaths from coal mining accidents.
RIAA has never to my knowledge filed a libel suit. Their suits are about copyright infringement, which is neither the same thing nor relevant to the conversation.
Kind of amazing that microsoft has had the nerve to go after Google's privacy practices, when its own regarding Bing generally arent as good. AFAIK Bing / MS Mail (whatever its called now) has historically scanned email in the same way as google, and the whole point of Bing is to datamine for advertising.
Im not sure if youre aware of just how much faster a current top-end chip is compared to even 2004's P4. A modern i7 ranges from "several times" faster-- per core-- than a P4 to "tens or hundreds of times" on certain tasks (encoding, encryption, graphics). That ignores how much less electricity it uses, and how many additional cores it has.
This is Moore's Law creaking at the seams because the next killer jump in tech to be "disruptive" as the biz types like to call it, is risky as get-out,
Or, you know, because some things cant scale indefinitely. You dont think AMD would dump out a 6GHz chip that was super fast if it was feasible?
The idea that somehow a company is at fault for choosing not to market a product is absurd, though, and people complaining along those lines are idiots. One person is making the claim that somehow Seagate is now gouging people by not selling their no-longer product? How bout you go out and make your own harddrives, or appreciate that Seagate offers a product that is apparently desirable to you?
Why has it become so cool on slashdot to blindly make comments denigrating companies just for being companies?
which they should have done by now, but hey... p-p-profit!
Its hillarious to see people try to demonize the concept of "its my product, and I will offer it at whatever price people will pay".
People are currently willing to pay 0.50/GB for SSDs. If thats too high, how do you suggest we find the right price short of the whole supply / demand concept?
You did not read very carefully. No decision to extradite has been made. AFAICT theyre saying that what mattersis whether the US has a sufficient case for extradition; his innocence and guilt are not relevant to that discussion, and they do not interested in determining them.
He will be tried, locked up and done in a heartbeat. Everything to appease the *AA masters.
You didnt read the part about "wild hysterical speculation", did you?
My hope is that the sequester "happens", its terrible, and everyone then responds by voting folks out en masse for failing to figure out the difficult task of "how do I legislate like a grown person".
The whole "lets all try to orchestrate drama and then blame the other person" thing has gotten old, and im kind of glad the sequester bluff has been "called" so to speak. Yes, I know Senate, its the Republicans' faults. Yes, House, I know its the Democrats' faults. Somehow 200 years of legislators have managed to survive in the same room with people who completely disagree with them, and somehow yall are going to have to make it work too. I suppose the one advantage they had is that the media wasnt giving a 24/7 soapbox to all of this drama (it was more limited).
In its ruling, the appeals court found that full disclosure of evidence was not necessary at the extradition hearing because the hearing is not the venue to determine guilt or innocence. The court pointed out that the legal obligation on the U.S. is simply to prove it has a valid case to answer.
IANAL, so I dont know if this is normal or not; its possible that it is. It would be nice if any international law folks can answer that question (rather than all the wild hysteria and speculation we're seeing).
You have to remember that some courts really are not concerned with guilt or innocence-- if you are appealing a ruling due to a procedural problems, I believe that claiming "but im innocent" will not help as the appeals court doesnt care.
Somehow the advent of the car didnt result in massive unemployment because of all of the laid-off buggy drivers, and construction equipment didnt result in massive unemployment due to no-longer-needed ditch diggers.
Technology advances, old problems are solved, and new ones are found. Lets not go full-scale luddite here.
Its possible that China has passed us in the 4 years since that graph, but being #2 in the world and only slightly behind a country 4 times our size is hardly a "serious problem", particularly when we dwarf the next closest competitors.
Its wrong for you to walk up and punch me in the mouth. Its generally considered OK for me to defend myself.
Likewise, if Canada one day decided it didnt like us and invaded, it would be considered "unprovoked" and "problematic". For us to then respond with military force would not.

Solution: Stop using IE.
How can Bing scan personal email?
Perhaps I was not clear. Bing datamines; thats its entire purpose. MS owns Bing, and also owns Hotmail (now Outlook). Historically, Hotmail ALSO served email-relevant ads, as does yahoo and basically everyone. Google simply was the first to do so.
Perhaps Outlook does not now, but that hardly changes the gross hypocrisy of it all.

The problem is and always has been perception.
Equallogic SANs use java iirc, as does HP's iLO remote management. A number of bank sites also use java applets.

In the future, mod him down and move on.

Typically, when the price of you pay for something goes up, you refer to it as an increase. That is, after all, what the word increase means.
How fucking stupid are you?
A post made in the finest tradition of eloquent political discourse, and the sort of attitude that has led to all of this drama in the first place.
Is it remotely possible that people on a different end of the political spectrum have opinions of worth and some degree of intelligence?

You do realize that the US still leads in manufacturing right? (as of 2009)

Im fairly certain it is not meaningless, in any sense of the word.

Gotta love slashdot and its tradition of snarky, but ignorant, posts.
Protip: If someone talks about 1984 on slashdot, theres a 95% chance they didnt actually read (or understand) the book.

Considering we dont actually have a budget, no, we're not.
