the highest insult you can throw at a Russian is probably either "intelligent" (as in belonging to intelligentsia)
Wikipedia says: The intelligentsia is a social class of people engaged in complex mental and creative labor directed to the development and dissemination of culture, encompassing intellectuals and social groups close to them (e.g., artists and school teachers).
The laptops are a one-time expense. New ebooks literally cost an SD card and postage.
Meanwhile, the kids with paper Pre-Algebra and Biology textbooks have read them cover-to-cover forwards and backwards because they don't have the the Algebra 1 or Chemistry books.
Great. $13 for a book on a single subject. What about the three R's? Science? History? Art? Economics? Civics? How to build your own botnet in 6 easy steps?
The purpose of EATR is to develop and demonstrate an autonomous robotic platform able to perform long-range, long-endurance missions without the need for manual or conventional re-fueling
"Latency-sensitive" would be a better term. P2P can tolerate a packet arriving half a second after it was sent (even batter than a regular HTTP download, in fact), and assuming they are pushing out packets at a steady rate you shouldn't notice a drop in your kbps. However, I know from experience that WoW and VoIP are very painful to use if you have a half-second delay.

The Commodore SX-64, also known as the Executive 64, or VIP-64...
Funny, the name implies it was for business use and yet the picture shows it with a pair of joysticks...
RC is simply a step closer to RTM than beta.
Then why not call it a gamma?
...but I'd really like to see at least one posting here at /. that doesn't begin with the word "Microsoft" and end with the words "Evil empire".

Well, that can't be helping their situation...
And what of the Oregon Territory, Louisiana Purchase, and Texas?

I'd say it is more like the Ansible from Ender's Game.
IIRC, embryonic stem cells have a tendency to be cancerous (and adult stem cells less so)
The same could be said of Linux.
I am missing your point.

I don't shooting outside the battlefield to reload will work, and it can only carry so much ammo.
Only uploading is illegal...
Which is rather difficult to avoid if you don't want to be a leecher.

I think they are still on Web 1.0.
I used to label it that way, but it manifests itself in this manner so often that it seems like it would have it's own title.
No, not a Mac user. I haven't figured out how to send food packaging to any OS's equivalent of /dev/null
I have a nice wire-frame basket designated for bug reports, electric bills, fast food wrappers, and soda cans.
What's the law that states that something will always be available (possibly even in you way), except those times you need it?
and the number of units for that product line goes up since its being produced more and longer you realize greater ecnomomies of scale
You can also refine your manufacturing process to improve your yields.
We reached the point of "fast enough" years ago. Computers were so fast we needed a semi-useful way to waste cpu cycles. And so the GUI was born.
Looks like a lousy spinoff of something we have here called a "subway". Except ours goes underground.
Hey, don't mock him for rounding up the value of songs. Some numbers are just too small to comprehend.
We're told that we will corrupt a HDD of we don't shut down properly, but who here hasn't done it anyways when necessary?
