Batteries are also a dead end. I'm sure that is hard to hear since it is your pet technology and the one you have invested in, but there is little reason to change the entire automotive culture to fit EVs when there are green technologies closer aligned to the better performing fossil fuels.
I'm sure there will be EVs for a while, but the fuel of the future will very likely be algae based ethanol. It has close to the energy density of gasoline (much better than batteries for decades to come) and doesn't require long charging times. It is also close to carbon neutral (and I think, given the feed potential, could be considered carbon negative). And it is efficient enough to be practically grown.
Nice trolling. You had me thinking someone could actually believe that crock of conservative bullshitting until it got overwhelmingly stinky. Next time, try leaving out the part blaming the poor for our financial problems instead of massive wealth disparity and the part where you accuse the DNP of paying bribes but ignoring the bribes taken by the GOP to keep taxes minimal for economic predators and job destroyers.
As far as the 1.4 T$ wars fighting a distraction war against a minimally powerful and relatively (to real genocidal leaders in Asia and Africa) harmless dictator and the Afghan Government (at least, before they were replaced by American puppets and labeled 'insurgents' so they could be lumped with the phantom group, the few dozen member 'All Queda'). Those parts can be left in for Trolling success.
IOPS are more important when recording a raw feed, than when rendering. Rendering is CPU/RAM heavy, and compared to the data being generated by the render, what actually gets stored to disk is miniscule and low bandwidth.
At a rate of tens of hours per frame, even with thousands of machines, only a few dozens frames per second are being written to the storage arrays.
There are already dozens of websites that serve the exact same function, with just as good or better presentation... (not unlike Linux distros themselves).
Let it die, ask another site to fill in holes if there are any, and nothing of value will be lost.
$$$. Even more so than the already expensive ethanol(relative to petroleum derivations). Unless it is imposed, few people will choose a fuel source that is significantly more expensive than the dirty alternative.
But, unfortunately, energy density of batteries are much less efficient than ethanol, and so is charging ability. I can't do as much as fast with electric cars as ethanol cars, and until that is solved, there are far bigger problems than acreage.
Growing energy instead of food, when food is subsidized to the farmer by the government because much more is grown than the market can bear... is not immoral. There is not a shortage of food, and rarely has been. There is a shortage of ability to get food to people who are starving, but growing more food doesn't fix that.
Given the demand of emulators on PC, Wii, smart phones, etc, this article really isn't surprising. Old platforms do many things better than new generation consoles, including fostering creativity by limiting resources and force developers away from spending their time budgets on shallow eye candy.
I hope it was.... the limos' primary function is getting the President out of harm's way and into a safe place.... fast. Driven by what are effectively Secret Service stunt drivers.
The military would not flatten anything. Most of the US military is made of humans, that would shoot themselves before shooting their own citizens. That leaves a handful of crazies vs. Millions with guns more dangerous than what the military can use.
As for being a toy, around 1.5 million violent crimes are prevented, per year, by people defending themselves with guns.
You are right about the government ought not fuck with things we love, but don't downplay firearms or things others love because you wish to not be involved.
Personally, I'm more partial to the theory that we *are* Neanderthals (hybrids) and that they didn't 'die out', but were simply bred away.
There has been little hard evidence that Neanderthals were any less intelligent than Sapiens, just less evidence found for their intelligence, likely because there were far fewer of them. Studies of their flint knapping abilities show they were at least as skilled at toolmaking as Sapiens.
Anyhow, the article reads ore like a daydream than a piece on science, as evidence for the most important part (percent usage of the brain for eyesight, and the retardation effects of this difference)are omitted.
There are three motors, one driving the electronics (like an alternator) and two putting power to the wheels. The wheels don't care how they get powered, and neither does the rolling road used to measure HP/BHP (derived).
And no, your analogy isn't quite right. HP is a measure of power, just like FLOPs ( not GHZ). It would be equivalent to saying you have a 1 TFLOP server, and a 2 TFLOP server, and given a task that has a combined output for both (like the rear wheels) have 3TFLOP of computing power.
"Defending" yourself by striking first whenever you fabricate arbitrary threats is not defense, that is offense. If the U.S. and DPRK were currently fighting and at war, then your point would be right, but they aren't. In the DPRK's mind, the cold war style military drills are the escalation justifying preemptive strike (at least, if you take what was said at face value).
I would think that it wouldn't have been lost on anyone the problem with websites ending in F or S. Or even Y. Co.uk just doesn't have the same naming problems.
You mean, like the recording industry does? Lossy vs lossless formatting is moot unless you are recording the music yourself (producing doesn't imply recording), since any available samples are so lossyfucked that even in a lossless master, they aren't any better quality than lossy.
It was difficult to cut the F22, because it was expensive to cut the F22. They have a hard time swallowing that if they ever need more than a couple hundred planes, the cost of spinning back up will be far more than the savings from not getting another couple hundred planes.

Yep, Obama started the Gulf War and Iraq War. That is why your comment makes so much sense.

I, for one, welcome our robotic, aquatic overlords.
Even if we only have a hundred years worth of viable uranium, I would expect us to work out Thorium reactors (and viable fusion) long before then.
Or... you are just a bigot yourself.
I belonged to a Baptist church with an openly gay pastor, and it was in the South, and one of the largest churches around.
The part that makes you a bigot is the negative stereotyping that doesn't hold true with even the most limited scrutiny.

I think what he is saying is, keep the Mils and the defense contractors, let go of the civvies doing menial tasks as part of the DoD itself.
