the banks got $800 bil just like that. And they didn't even promise anything. And that money hardly lasted a year before we were all in the same situation again.
The reason they don't know about Apples antivirus group is that it's the same one as their legal department. Operating on the basis that if people can't see or hear or know about viruses and botnets, then they don't exist.
It can also be argued that your overreaction to twitter posts is a great reason to invade and bomb your country so as to introduce you to the concept of freedom. Doesn't mean that either is an even remotely sensible course of action.
Yes, but only with destructive pulsing and you can probably agree that there's a bit of problems with running tests where the magnet pulse is accompanied by a HE shockwave.
Or perhaps this is yet another step of china becoming more progressive and open.
I mean, they've tried communism and oppression and information control and whatnot else, they got out of being a 3rd world country by trying something new, and their transformation was absolutely spectacular and I'm certain their leadership agrees on this, why not try more progressive changes, it of course depends on the mindset of the leadership, if they want to transform china to a great nation or if they are more interested in consolidating power for friends in high places and ideological allies?
And why yes, a china that is an industrial powerhouse, with freedom of information and other civil liberties could certainly become what america once was with the american dream and all that rosy hyperbole.
Now if only the US weren't heading in the opposite direction.
The earths magnetic field is not strong, it's just huge. You're probably more burdned by power and weight and size contraints if you want to shield a shuttle than field strenght.
What I find interesting with this is that some "magic physics" theories postulates funny things to be possible at some ~50 tesla strenght. Probably won't show up anything, but testing them to falsify is always a noble goal.
It would also be a much nicer place without sarkozy. No wonder everyone hates france.
And for this, slashdot will be classified as a terrorist website only so that sarkozy can nab me whenever I have the bad misfortune to somehow end up in his nation of wine soaked douchebags.
It's overpriced compared to PC hardware of _similar_ size and performance. Your argument basically runs like "It's not identically matched by any PC so therefor the mac mini at it's ridiculous pricepoint is an affordable device!" What if they only offered their slighty/barely noticably improved version that runs at $799? still worth it? Perhaps they could turn it up to 2500$ like these amiga morons are trying and you'd still think it's worth it because it's marginally unique.
Only when you enforce the volume, TDP and performance limitations at the same time will you single the mac mini out. And that's because no(or few, seems zotac have something similar to offer for a similar price) other manufacturer thinks they'd get away with stripping away screen, battery, and keyboard from a laptop and still charge the same as a fully fledged one for it.
But sure, if i were 35 year old, with a fulltime job and couldn't tell a CPU from a PSU I'd buy it, because I wouldn't know better.
1: reread my post where i suggested an APU instead. although arguably you'd need to search long and far to find a neat low profile heatsink for one. Although any and all intel GPUs are so shitty that a E-450 is probably ten times better at graphics.
2: use those $200-$300 spare monies to design and 3d print one from print-on-demand-services. You won't find an off the shelf case of that size because if it's made to precisely fit only one set of hardware it's pretty fucking stupid to not simply bundle it with the hardware and skip the part where 1000 angry customers complain that their MSI mini-itx doesn't fit because you specced it for an ASUS model.
And please use a volume unit that is not completly fucking retarded. given that all mini-itx boards(the apple mini one included) are ~17x17cm square footprint the only real issue here is height, and while the latest and greatest mac mini have managed to slim down it's height a rather impressive amount it's like what? the 5th generation one, the first were a lot more brick-ish in size.
As for your fascist demands on size: no one gives a fuck for a HTPC if it's 1cm high or 5, or if it super-specced CPU wise, it'll spend most of the time sitting next to your TV, playing back movies and series anyway. And if you use it as a stationary work computer, you're not going to use any particularly CPU intensive programs anyway, so a E-450 would most likely be sufficient.
The mac mini is just an optimized case for a mini-itx board, if you want to sell this as some world shaping revolution then feel free to join the cult of apple and stand screaming at the street corner to inform the unwashed masses of the fabulous world of apple, but don't attempt to pass it off to people of technical inclination as something other than a nonexistant-to-marginal benefit of what is DIYable without the ridiculous apple tax.
The e-450 can be substituted for a FM75+APU combo, add a low profile heatsink and you'll still have atleast $200 to get that fancy pantsy super important form factor totally generic case. Why you could get it custom 3d printed with an apple logo in case you feel you're not metrosexual enough without one.
I'd like to point out that your blood doesn't boil in a low pressure environment, even if that's a vacuum. As it's contained by your skin and tissues that are rather noncompliant tissue and thus maintain a certain level of internal pressure.
However, the starling forces are severely disrupted, resulting in oedema of any exposed tissue, this however can be compensated for by using skin tight clothing. NASA did in fact once research a wet-suit like space suit that wouldn't be pressure sealed, concept was good, however, if the suit is kinked and the pressure is relieved you get oedema, and this is hard to prevent in regions such as around joints and crotch.
Yes it's a lack of several human rights. Sortof how iraq was under Saddam.
Now they have several human rights, but no one around to enforce them. So the place is a different flavour of hellhole.
The US is also lacking several human rights, but i'm not seeing you picking up any guns to change things. As for voting? They can do that in Iran too. Doesn't help much though, same as in the US, where the media could paint a rainbow picture of hitler and get him elected. Provided he have the money and friends in high places.
The people of Iran once had a democratically elected leader. The CIA didn't like that and installed a puppet regime, everything went to hell after that.
Although, still Iran do have a quite high standard of living. They only lack several human rights(and the west is trying to catch up in reaching the same limitations) and no democratic elections, despite these flaws, it's a quite stable nation. People may be discontent, but starting a civil war to remove the powers that be requires a fair bit more than discontent. Thus, the people of iran don't really have much of a choice. And with the recent polarization of iran vs the west that is going on, this situation is damn sure to not improve in any progressive and positive manner.
And this is not just about iran and the US and israel. Russia and china are on the sidelines too.
A good recepie for shitstorm reads like this: Increasing geopolitical tensions in the middle of a economic fucking crisis. The more i see this shit play out, the more the picture looks like the US being a powertripping neoimperialistic Rome 2.0 in the decline stage.

Jail Arizona's Gov. Jan Brewer for trolling if this law passes. It certainly offends and annoy me.
More likely is that they'll learn to write and understand english and we'll see yet another wave of tech support outsourcing.
yes but the US government is the good guys. Haven't you heard?
Everyone else is the bad guys.
And if we have to lie a bit to make the US government look better, then it's for a good cause.
Now shut the fuck up before your ass is NDAAed

They aren't communists anymore, it's just inertia that's keeping the name schemes around

From the short bit i watched it looked like terrible CG and just felt wrong.

E-450 mini-itx mobo($180) + 2gb ram(~$20) + 500gb HD(~$50?) + picopsu 90W($50) + powerbrick(free to $40).
The e-450 can be substituted for a FM75+APU combo, add a low profile heatsink and you'll still have atleast $200 to get that fancy pantsy super important form factor totally generic case. Why you could get it custom 3d printed with an apple logo in case you feel you're not metrosexual enough without one.
Everyone, just because you find a worse offender doesn't mean the lesser one if redeemed.
This is stupid though, $2500 for generic mini-itx hardware with a retarded OS? Is this a joke or something?

And then he breaks every bone in his body.
Which I'm sure would be a record too.
This could rather easily be implemented as a client-side program.
But of course, big software want to harvest your past so it will definitely be a web-only server-side-hosted 'free' service.

Why not combine the best of both worlds? A rifle that first shoots a bullet and a photograph a split second later.
Just wait till you hear about someone shooting cops with this.
25 minutes of that video involve video examples.
The rest, perhaps a transcription would do.
