So basically, what you're saying is is that energy stills equals mass times speed of light in a vacuum times speed of light in a vacuum, but that nobody has thought about negative time that neutrons experience in traveling (some conversions) and that negative time shaves time off of the total positive traveling time?
I don't want nVidia anywhere near my Gallium3D accelerated Linux desktop.
Now that the S3 floating point patent got prior-arted, I am going to enjoy some actually working GPU (minus power management, but Bridgman (ATI graphics driver manager guy) already said that internal open source goodness is on the way).
Not only does Windows 8 and the upcomming Office run on ARM, there is already a production ready ARM laptop that's going to be sold.
Image larger than iPad battery life and weeks of standby, a full HD resolution, accelerated x264 full HD video playback. Internet Explorer 10 full acceleration and DX11.
No fans. No noice. No overheating on your lap. Dirt cheap. Light. Fast for desktop use.
The ultimate family laptop, for every family member.
No. Apple is using a BIOS with an EFI layer on top.
So technically Apple took crap and put a tiny layer of extra crap on top.
Ask yourself why we need formware that does nothing else but load a kernel? You need drivers for all your hardware anyways, so you might as well pass the still running firmware crap altogether...
Swap is only used as a protection method, so you can run more stuff than you can put in RAM.
If you have enough RAM (like most of us), then your swap is never going to be used. So what's the point of caching the HDD?
Well the point is that your HDD is a 1.000 times slower than RAM, which is a 1.000 times slower than cache, which is a 1.000 times slower than CPU registers.
Considdering that 'the magic happens' in the CPU, you can't supply your CPU fast enough if you don't cache larger and slower memmory.
Considdering that you HDD is the slowest memory, and there is a file that you need to edit with the CPU that's on your HDD and it's very large, you are going to notice this as a user. A tiny file could maybe take so little time that you won't even notice this delay. But if you can speed up your HDD with a very smart, smaller and faster cache, then large file readings needed for the CPU or even GPU is going to be sooooo much faster!
It took Flash to get to this point of HTML being able to do something not layout, but animated and interactive content.
The real question would be "Where the hell was W3C in the last 10 years?
Sure they did a little something-something here and there, and even though Flash is a bitch, Flash delivered something that was way ahead of its time. I mean; why the hell has it took a Duke Nukem Forever release in development time to get to the point where we are starting to see the apearence of a video tag? I mean... Seriously... WTF?
Let's not forget that there still is no such thing as a final HTMLv5. As much as I like to see it die sooner than later, no HTMLv5 'app' is working on all 'HTMLv5' browsers yet, while Flash delivers consistancy.
Yup, Android is a disaster. So much so that I traded my Android phone for (stay away from the following shock) Symbian^3 on the E7-00.
What a bliss...
Windows 7 is technically way better than that Java Virtual Machine OS based on an out-of-date Linux kernel without upstream driver development, locked by locked bootloaders, plagued by horrible software fragmentation and fragmented interfaces that do not co-operate with each others widgets. Oh, they call it Android...
"OMG taxes!!!!1111 one one eleven" Guess what, smartass, when you earn more, you'll still get more.
Not to mention people can actually go to the hospital and not have to worry about dying when they could get a very easy treatment in no-time.
But all those poor people are less important than you, especially because some might not have the required intelligence that you might have, in order to be 'succesful'.
You are not your house, your wallet and definately not your fscking shoes. You're just an asshole. I hope you get untreatable cancer, just like some poor people in the US can't get their treatment for a deadly decease, just because a selective few can get even richer.
Ofcourse it doesn't translate to a normal webpage, untill Internet Explorer version +1 is going to support it so you can have seemless cloud integration and then people start making these webapp-Windows combo's for internel company usage. Then school make you learn that crap, because that's what companies use. Then, because you learned it at school, you're going to use it for your job, because it's so easy.
*Ten steps further*
Any *nix OS is screaming "WTF this required webpage doesn't load. OMG" and then some people start to port those simple DOM objects that simply work, but the DOM objects in Windows are obscurely buggy and so Windows apps are made to expect these bugs and these apps stop working on nearly bugless open source implementations.
*2 years further*
We are back at where Win32 was in 2011. There's this Wine project that can almost run your Windows apps!
Okey... First of all the sides are styled after the PSP sides. Sony had the chiclet keyboard earlyer than Apple. The backplate (behind the screen) is tranlucent. The flip meganism is totaly different. The on-off key and it's light is, well Mac doesn't have it. The side/onderside is halfway divided into two colors. The speakers are above the keyboard. The curvature in which the keyboard lies is curved down only one way. It doesn't have a seperate trackpad; the entire underside is translucent and the keys and the trackpad itself is also translucent... And so much more actual industrial design that Macbooks lack.
Oh, not to mention the fact that the screen has better quality, it's sturdier and lighter. It comes with all of Adobe's offering too, so it's absolutely a 100% superior in terms of publishing (something you buy a Macbook for, right? With it's 90's color management... ROFL). Now games. So far 2D superiority. Now let's see what it can do in 3D. DirectX 11 and faster OpenGL speed. Wait.. you mean OpenGL 4.2 support? Holy shit... That's lightyears better than OpenGL 2.1.
I could go on, but I think that this laptop beats the shit out of MacBooks...
You do realize that due to the lack of an official institute for the English language, there is no standard dictionary and grammer definition, rendering irregardless a perfectly valid English word, because it happens to be used by English speaking people.
Thou art not upset by changing languages, art thou?
While funny, SMS is being send over GSM, in the same package that is being exchanged with cell towers to maintain GSM (/2G) connectivity, irregardless. That package has empty space, so SMS (that's why it's limited by an amount of characters; so it can fit in that package) can be send without extra load on the cell tower buffer.
What we are talking about here is stuff like Watsapp and Ping and that shit, which is stored on a central server anyway, so when cellphone asks server "What's up, man?" it then gets send without having to fill up the buffer, which is once per 1,5 minutes.
This idea still realy sucks balls due to crappy WiFi signals never recieving anything. What we need is an expecting system. If you're not texting a while, just check once per 1,5min and do nothing else in between. Let it have a tickless OS.
Oh wait, we already have that and it is called Linux (tickless)
Considder this: If it runs on film, and it drops the film back down from orbit, and with that technology; how the hell could they get new film back in?
Errr... They couldn't, so that means either sending a shitload of these things into space on a regular basis, or have them land back in america. But if they could do that then why would they have the tape been dropped back onto earth? And no; it can't be a time thing, because they could have anticipated and adjusted the tape length and the orbit accordingly.
So there were probably hundreds of these things...
"I don't get this. Excuse nigger? What on earth is that?" It's a phenomenon where film makers hire exactly one black person for a side role, just so that they can't get sued. It's common practise.
What I'm getting at is that racism is a very deep rooted problem that you can't simply wave away as government, by making a bill that sais "from here on out, you must hire a couple of black employees." and then be done with it.
For example if you have a lot of tax money, you can spend part of it on, for example, commercials, awareness programs, compaigns and all that stuff. Because you need to take away racism and not mask it. Masking it doesn't make the problem go away.
The way that the Netherlands does it, for example, is that they have an instituion for idealistic commercials, in which they present an occurance (for example a dad who's shouting at his kid from the sidelines to do better, because he's a total loser) and then the concequence (the kid cries or is very unhappy, etc) to make people think about what they are doing (the kid is just playing a game of footbal) and to portray it as bad.
You're not going to cure racism with a bill. That's just fucking stupid.
Reality check: if you don't force the highest of loan to pay 30% taxes, no middle- or lower class parent will be able to send their kids to MIT because they can't afford their kids to cost $55,270/year, just to go to university.
If you make one million a year, you still make $745.000 after paying taxes, so there's still motivation to get rich.
I'm trying to tell you two things: 1. CPU's statistically mean shit when it comes to uptime; it's the OS. And Windows and Mac OS X and any other OS on the planet crashes every now and then; 2. You can spin shit around to make it sound like it's awesome, while it is not.
So you'd make a great PR guy, because you can make shit believable while it's not.
Well do you see a comunist working his ass of after work to make a new cure for a specific cancer type if he doesn't get paid extra for his extra efford?
You'll see zero innovation and improvement and it shows. Healthcare and technology are the best in capitalistic countries.
Name one non-capitalistic thing that makes sure that stuff happens. Does a Walden Two make Intel CPU's so you can fold@home?

Load the Windows boot loader with Grub, instead.

Well, strictly speaking; you are correct.
However, since we're not writing articles here and are communication with other preople over the internet; correctness isn't realy required.
Then again, I do not live in an English speaking country, so I'm not getting annoyed about common language rape on a daily basis...
