I once ran Windows NT 4.0 on a PowerPC box. I'm probably one of a hundred who ever ran something that arcane. There were zero third party apps for it. It was a curiosity, but the box was better for running NetBSD.
What I would like, though, is for Microsoft to come up with a scheme where it is installable on Chromebooks. Some sort of 'crack' that makes it possible to write over ChromeOS.
Where is this 'middle of nowhere' you refer to? Even a porn habit doesn't mean you have to live in a Big Central City anymore. The Internet had decentralized the world. All you have to lose is the dogshit (and human-shit) on the bottom of your shoes by moving out of the city.
Yes, and a car without autopilot would need to have a human steering the car into something. So if the person is awake and driving they'd have to explicitly steer into a traffic barrier to do a deed as 'bad' as the autopilot.
It's quite likely that some electronics would survive. Bear in mind that every bit of silicon that fails fails in a way that dissipates a bunch of the energy that would otherwise reach other electronics. And a lot of electronic equipment, especially automotive, is designed with protection in mind. The whole infrastructure system from end to end would be drastically effected, so consumer-GPS wouldn't likely survive. But some gear would.
I know that shortly thereafter I'd be busy with my remaining vacuum tube oscilloscope fixing stuff.
So are you saying Silicon Valley is Galt's Gulch, and all the money should stream there? Or am I being narrow minded, since Amazon isn't headquartered in S.V.?
What GP commenter meant was that since he never leaves his mom's basement, and orders in anything he could ever want on Amazon (parts for his gaming "rig", there are multiple brands of pizza rolls, and flavors of Mountain Dew, etc.), there is no "local" on his Internet.
It sounds like you're trying to double down on the idea that this Crypto"currency" should be an investment vehicle.
No. The whole point in a currency is trust and stability. When the value of a currency swings wildly, it's called "inflation" or "deflation" and it disrupts the entire economy. Currencies are supposed to be very stable means of exchange. A dollar's worth of sand should be a dollars worth of sand five weeks from now.
at whatever the exchange rate it happens to be stable enough needs to be so static an exchange rate that there really aren't any speculators involved at all.

Physical strength, dexterity beyond thumb-twitch skill. Balance, the ability to work in team strategy with other players on a real physical field.
Real world stuff you probably wouldn't understand.
The irony will be that it will run on the NT kernel, so the only part of 'Linux' that won't be present is the actual Linux kernel.

I have my mom's old Netbook, and I upgraded it to 2gb of memory and a 500g hard drive. It's still anemic, but it's useful for a few things.

ActiveDirectory and Outlook built in. ChromeOS will be flattened out on the roadway in the corporate market.
The nearly 1 million China citizens of Islamic orientation in re-education camps LOVE China. That's why they need to be re-educated.

Indeed, if you're choosing a doctor to treat your STD, you want someone with a lot of 'giant city' medical experience.
You probably grew up thinking 'Harry Potter books' were 'real good.'
They weren't. It was a well marketed meme that caught on. Like Beanie Babies, or Cabbage Patch Kids.
What is this ignorant crapflood? Why do people waste their time, or their cycles running the script that spews it out?

There's a whole generation for whom YouTube stars are who they look up to. It's frightening.

Asleep or not, I think the best autonomous cars out there today
The word you should have used is believe, not think. Very little thinking was involved in the process.
Well, into whatever the driver explicitly steers it into hitting.
That was the comparison you meant to make, correct?
If it's an electric car, that could be sooner than a gasoline car would run out.
Before you can collect a prize you need to fix the bug in your auto-correct entry system.
Haters gonna hate.
The common bromide of a cult member.

By design? It just teetered in that direction.
Steve Forbes, Doctor Ben Carson, and Dubya himself heartily endorse the ACSH.
