Hey gamers: Since you want performance, have you ever thought about writing games that would boot from bios instead of sharing resources running on top of some bloated OS that you don't need?
but haven't stated explicitly, that the best course of action is to ignore things like this.
Of course there hasn't yet been developed a pill for intelligence, so management will still want some of the silly frills involved here, like the calendar. Have hope; we may someday see the end of microsucks horseshit.
They think an image of a screen is the design. They equate the complexity of what the user sees on the screen to the complexity of the software behind it.
If there was a god he would answer my prayers and spare me from these failed programmer-turned manager morons.
Some people just showed that not only can universes collide, but discovered that
in direct contradiction to the dictate of isotropy: It did matter where the observer was. Observers on the edge of the bubble were more likely to be smacked by a collision than were observers living in the bubbleâ(TM)s protected center.
Physicist John Archibald Wheeler followed in WeizsÃcker's footsteps when he wrote "it is not unreasonable to imagine that information sits at the core of physics, just as it sits at the core of a computer". David Chalmers of the Australian National University summarised his views as:
"Wheeler (1990) has suggested that information is fundamental to the physics of the universe. According to this "it from bit" doctrine, the laws of physics can be cast in terms of information, postulating different states that give rise to different effects without actually saying what those states are. It is only their position in an information space that counts. If so, then information is a natural candidate to also play a role in a fundamental theory of consciousness. We are led to a conception of the world on which information is truly fundamental, and on which it has two basic aspects, corresponding to the physical and the phenomenal features of the world".
I'm not very interested anymore in whether people have free will. And, it's silly to ask whether particles do.
I'm not sure that particles even exist.
Consider that the univese could be a computer (sort of like The Matrix but without Keanu Reeves). In that case the univese has to chug along calculating and recording the position, velocity, and other characteristics of eveything in it at each point in time.
But does it? For one thing, ray tracing would show it photon paths that might never interact, so skip those.
But more importantly, calculating a position or spin or whatever, to infinite precision would, of course, require an infinite amount of time. So just approximate when necessesary to keep up appearances, but don't waste computational resources.
But then some pesky physicist comes along and wants an exact number. Fine, make one up. Pull one out of the universal butt.
The real colors would be boring to the scientists. Different wavelengths confer different information, and information is what they made the machines for.

all the cool things you can do with a Windows PC
I'm still waiting to see one.

Nevermind. Someone moded it into another dimension.
If I had some mod points I would give you one for funny. Ignorant, but funny.
Do they get the dog that wags his tail when you search? If not, it's not real windows.
Why do I have to read TFA to find out WTF an XBMC is? Fucking lamers. Disclaimer. My key between the "F" and "H" outputs and "L".

What does intelligence have to do with it. The texters are kids. They have no sense of value. They'll pay anything, and Verizon, et al. know it.
Garriott can get fucked and everyone else involved needs a brain transplant.
PS. Including ps
Former BSDers will be happy to know that UCB versions of a lot of commands can be found in /usr/ucb
I have had driver problems with Linux as well. Does it have such a site?
PS. You can also check the forums at http://opensolaris.org/os/
I agree. Words come to mean nothing after the marketeers and busniness parots grab them in their teeth and shake them until the meaning falls out.
I wish I had some moderator points.
Journalists these days!
Just say no to Fuckroass Suckblows
He also says "When you download videos from NBCOlympics.com, your computer isn't actually going to the Internet to get content."
I guess my computer is getting the bits via telepathy then.
"blah...center in 30 Rockefeller Plaza ("30 Rock") in New York City where the encoding to Windows Media Format (WMF) tak..blah blah"
He also forgot to mention NBC's altering reality:

But I love Mexican food.
For example here is a picture of a plume from Enceladus that was colorized for emphasis:

But more specific examples for your question are these images:

From the caption: "Red and green colors represent infrared wavelengths and show areas where atmospheric methane absorbs light."

In this case a picture in the X-ray spectrum allows them to see the temperature of the gas surrounding two colliding galaxy clusters; 50 to 100 million degrees C!

So where's his page of downloads?
