But the stripped down interface should not be the default. Most people do have enough screen real estate for the standard toolbars, particularly if you use something like the Tree Style Tabs Firefox extension. As of late, Microsoft has developed a bad habit of releasing things with UIs that don't behave like a native Windows application. Every now and then, I have to do something with one of the newer versions of Office, and the only way I can get anything done is with keyboard shortcuts. Unfortunately, that means I'm limited to Open, New, Save, Exit, and Print.
Well, yes! If somebody wanted to commit an act of terrorism with an airplane, and they had the resources to buy an airplane, you really couldn't do anything about it short of discovering the plot ahead of time and arresting the conspirators or shooting down the plane mid-flight.
The idea is to make the power consumption scale over a wider range proportional to the load. If you have a CPU that uses 13% of its TDP at 10% load, you can use a much beefier chip in the same application than if, say it consumed 80% of its TDP at 10% load. You can keep the power consumption the same but greatly increase the perceived responsiveness.
I, for one, welcome the day when the battery life of my laptop is dominated by the load average instead of how long it's been running. My phone can play 720p video, and the battery is good for barely more than a single movie. However, it'll last for days on standby in my pocket. Imagine that dynamic range with your computer.
But will they give you 200 IP addresses? My whole apartment building is behind NAT. If I want a publicly routable address, I have to use Microsoft's Teredo server. It sucks donkey balls.
That hinges on the assumption that people will only use the wireless video links to watch prerecorded/prerendered video. I seriously doubt that people will accept compression artifacts in games or in text, and certainly not in CAD. Imagine for a moment, using an LCD panel with a PC that is incapable of driving it at its native resolution. No thank you. I for one want my diplay to faithfully reproduce the image I send to it, pixel for pixel.
A 'standard' 100/100 Mb/s connection, eh? if Verizon ran fiber in my neighborhood, the fastest connection I would be able to get would be 50 Mb/s down, 20 Mb/s up. As it stands, the best that is offered is ADSL at 12 Mb/s down, 894 kb/s up.

Or use a black & white printer.
That begs the question,* why isn't this tagged 'telescreen'?
*I'm in ur language, trollin' ur pedants.
No, that's *exactly* 1KB/s. It is slightly less than 1 KiB/s.

English, motherfucker, do you speak it?

Unfortunately, in addition to disrupting everything from DC to daylight, that plan would also disrupt the concentration of the students.

Well, it's not rot13 or any other substitution cipher. The word length has a suspiciously small spread.

Nope, it *is* as scuzzy as it seems, by virtue of the fact that it's a home owners' association doing it.
That, or they're using Windows XP and they just disabled the swap file.
Perhaps just a little slow, yes. But what about the tiny screen with abominable color rendition?
Personally, I'd rather have all the pixels. I can do my own damn 'digital zoom' in MS Paint.
Well, yes, if you either cannot afford a dedicated camera or don't want to lug one around.
Not really. They offload all sorts of things to dedicated DSPs.
The "toy" my toddler loves the most is another toddler.
So your kid is Azula?

I find that highly unlikely. Obviously he jusHRNGGGHHHHHHHHHH!

I'm not going to click that.
No. Because 'datum' creates ambiguity, the correct choice is 'datumses'.
That sounds like a Morrowind quest.
My kingdom for a -1 Blatantly False!
