  1. Re:Love excercise on The Least Amount of Exercise Needed To Extend Life · · Score: 1

    You two are skipping psychological impediments - my father pressured me to exercise by the clock every day, ever since I was first grade. Now the only sport that doesn't make me hate myself is walking. I can walk damn fast, because I'm a nervous wreck due to many factors, and I channel nervous energy in my (long) legs, but nothing more. Only thing that can make me sweat and still enjoy it, is sex. One act, total to this day. I'm 17.

  2. Re:Not trying to upgrade again for a long while on Fedora 16 Alpha Released · · Score: 1

    GNOME has the habit of raping the GPU - kwin handles better, AFAIK.

  3. Re:Really? on Fedora 16 Alpha Released · · Score: 1

    My advice - cut out the crap and run something sensible - like KDE. Fedora has reasonable KDE integration - shutdown a few services, and you're done.

  4. Re:Bring back X.25! on GA Tech: Internet's Mid-Layers Vulnerable To Attack · · Score: 1

    You want to maintain dynamic state on core routers? Good luck.

    You are free to install whatever network protocol drivers strike your fancy in any OS, AFAIK.

    Though the performance is respectable. (Linux kernel implementation, of course)

  7. Re:"No ecosystem" - Useful for Work on Android On HP TouchPad · · Score: 1

    The keyboard has been dying since the 90s, IIRC. So has the mainframe. So have text based programing languages. And AI. And Lisp. And x86.

  8. Re:It'll never make it through FDA trials on Cancer Cured By HIV · · Score: 1

    My point was that many students would have such a need - todays culture makes for sucky parents.

  9. Re:Maybe next year... on A Decade of Haiku OS · · Score: 1

    That's funny, I have Fedora 15 running on my 3 y.o. laptop with zero CLI setup. Free drivers only.

  10. Re:Well that's expected; these aren't computer peo on Most People Have Never Heard of CTRL+F · · Score: 1

    Is that in a terminal? What's the combo?

    A little tweak to your marshal art edu system - all students are put on intensive counseling so they are able to use their skills - my ego is way to crushed (thanks dad) to be able to react in any way in a violent situation - I'm probably not the only one.

  14. Re:Doesn't have to be unsafe if native on C++ 2011 and the Return of Native Code · · Score: 1

    Whats wrong with it? Note:Don't point to the DOM, and don't point to crappy dynamic implementations, lack of proper AOT compiler is not the language's fault.

  15. Re:Two-word pointers on C++ 2011 and the Return of Native Code · · Score: 1

    Bitfields and pointer compression ought to do the trick faster.

  16. Re:Smart people know already... on C++ 2011 and the Return of Native Code · · Score: 1

    Wanna try it against Common Lisp or Ada?

  17. Re:False dichotomy on C++ 2011 and the Return of Native Code · · Score: 1

    No cycle detection - no GC.

  18. Re:Carmack on C++ 2011 and the Return of Native Code · · Score: 1

    More like, non-optimized implementations. Tell me, how many implementations are cache and superscalar aware?

  19. Re:It'll never make it through FDA trials on Cancer Cured By HIV · · Score: 1

    I didn't clarify - increase per hour wage proportionally - same work to money ratio for the business, just spread out across the population. Sure, the median income will go down, though today's inefficient consumer culture and traditional living beyond means would guarantee that the median income will still be more than enough to live comfortable, if you spend smart. Resource efficiency is a must, because the are the economic bottleneck.

  20. Re:Negative impedances on Smart Power Grid Could Wreak Havoc On Itself · · Score: 1

    Wouldn't a DC network bypass that problem? Or at least be easier to balance?

    for some reason the word father has gone missing, probably dissolved by alcohol.

  23. Re:Nice, but maybe irrelevant. on C++0x Finally Becomes a Standard · · Score: 1

    You want JS or a dialect of it. Get a good runtime though.

  24. Re:C++ already has something better than GC on C++0x Finally Becomes a Standard · · Score: 1

    Split off the GC in a process. Have the OS remap memory. AID tags in the L1 cache are selectively flushable.

  25. Re:Beyond the protection of the law, too on Paypal Founder Helping Build Artificial Island Nations · · Score: 1

    Homegrown Gaussian cannons with stationary capacitor packs, and simple steel rods of varying sizes will be more than enough, add some flame bombs on the tip on some of them, and you're golden.
