I think I agree..... Having played football, track, swiming, and watched my son in martial arts. I always understood stretching as something to increase flexibility, and prevent injury. Anyone who has lifted waits without a proper warm up and stretch will tell you it doesnt' take long before you start cramping up.
i'm off topic on this one, but I never did understand why the assumption was always made that got created creatures the way they exist today. When the Bible says man who says they were refering to the first bi-ped. Who isn't to say the Bible wasn't refering to the final iteration of homosapain. Just food for thought here not trying to start a new religion.
I don't know about you, but on my system drive arrays generate the most heat, and require quite a bit of cooling.
I don't see the practicality of having all this case hardware to support what looks like a few liters of oil if the hard drives still have to be cooled by fans.
This feature would only be useful to me in creating a fanless ultra quiet system.
I'm not sure but like most extreme PC users i know. They are in the case at least once a day trouble shooting, or fixing something. (dead fan, dead drive, upgrades etc.) This pretty much kills that idea. If My PC seizes and I need to reset the bios, pull ram etc it's a no go.
I'm also curious how they address hardware which need to have breather holes like hard drives.
Maybe the aliens just want to test our tendency to panic, create histaria, and believe ridiculous things even though a plausible explanation may already exist ?
yea your right, what we need is a bunch of paper, marked in #2 pencil in a box. Yea that is much more secure. not everyone can hack an encrypted voting machine, everyone can steal a box and reprint voting forms.
Beauty is in the eye of the beholder blah blah blah..... I say beauty is cultural. The parameters by which program works are based on a elitist 'Hollywood' culture, the fact that a 'scientist' would prescribe to such unfair generalizations is offensive to me. Yea Yea demonstrating a concept blah blah blah.
"The grid" can't store energy and the "excess" power you describe at night isn't excess power but a lack of consumption, and that doesn't create power to be sent back to residences -- it still has to be generated somehow.
true but it's not about storage it's about relying less on hydrocarbons. you cut down on peak demand you cut down on the need for more stations. Over time I am sure we will move to a 100% envirofriendly production but till then this works well
Also, there's a colossal inefficiency in feeding the grid from thousands of homes, each supplying some puny sub-5 kW of excess power. A lot of transmission loss and inability to channel it where its needed.
5kW x 2mill homes = 10 MegaWatts This is quite a bit, especially compared to wear we are now. I do agree with the waste in transmission lines. I personally believe that we need to go back to the days of local generating stations. If people had to deal with there own fumes they would be more proactive in fixing the problem.
I actually think there is a simple source to this. It's not so much to store energy but to re-direct it. If home owners with solar arrays are hooked up to the electrical grid they can sell power to the grid during the day to supply business and manufacturing. Then at night the grid will forward excess power not used by business back to the homeowners. There is no need to 'store' energy in the traditional sense.
I no longer get excited about stories like this, as it doesn't matter unless someone figures out how to mass produce this stuff and make it available for the market. If I'm not mistaken photovoltaic production hasn't changed in years despite all this new technology. Why not run a story on why mfgs are taking so long to adopt this.
well most vpns just create a secure access to the tcp level. If it is a windows network you still have to log into the network itself. It is understood though that that the fact vpn access is requires probably means there are a few open servers and user machines that have unprotected shares because of the false security of the VPN.
With the US being one of the leading producers of coal, they should be the biggest proponent of such technology. This is in light of US industry/Economy going to the crap yard.
I actually watch the ad objectively and thought it made a point. Apple's ads were always about being free form. MS is saying there is nothing wrong with having form and structure. Fact is consumers are a Mob they only remember what they heard last.If this add manages to diffuse the stereo type then so be it. There is a vast majority of people in this world (over 30 crowd) who don't think striving to be cool is what life is about. It's about responsibility and dependability, I think MS may strike a cord with this market.
To acknowledge an attack is to admit its success. Stupid move on Microsoft's part. This would have only worked if they could have snagged the original PC guy and gave him some flair not a stupid explanation as to why PC's don't suck.

I think what your trying to say is Apple has a reputation for 'cool' innovation. They don't do mondain and they don't do what's been done before.
Google to the common folk is a search engine, albeit an awesome one but still it's just a search engine.
When I watched the add I could see it quite easy for someone to think the phone was just another iPhone look alike with access to google.

your a gay porn actor ?
simple equation actually
where PROFIT SECURITY COST
then SECURITY COST = MOB CONTROL TACTICS
where MOB = (UNINFORMED + PARANOIA)
and CONTROL = (PSYCHOLOGICAL + THEATRICS)
maybe you can't turn fruit punch into pineapple juice, but who says you can't make it taste like it ?
if you fart into an open flame will your ass really explode ??

how about we replace them with Popcorn Jokes ?
