Isn't that just federal spending? Most education spending is by local governments, so the total is probably, I dunno, more on the order of a trillion. Not counting private higher education, of course, though I'm not sure why we shouldn't count that.
Oh, there are plenty of ways to deal with zealots. Firebats, medics. Vultures or marines if you're clever with the micro-management. Bunkers.... sunken colonies... sheild batteries... lurkers or mutas, if you can get there fast enough.
It's probably 1KW average. You'ld need batteries (capacitor?). Better still, stay connected to the main power grid, feed back power when you're using less, and only pay for your net usage.
Combine the computational challenge with a whitelist; the spammers will have to run the challenges most of the time, but your poor P166 shouldn't, usually.
Not at all; there are simply certain rules we expect to be followed in war. Violence outside those rules is crime (if for profit) or terrorism (if for political ends).
If you don't want to follow our rules, fine; but once you break them we won't be constrained by them either, and we will fight dirty with the worst of 'em if it comes to that.
Probably not; VxWorks is a real-time OS - it's designed to guarentee interactive performance (eg, something like 'The navigation app *will* get 50% of CPU time over *any* 5ms interval').
I'd bet it doesn't support VM at all; too hard to know how long swapping will take. That's probably also why they apparently kept filesystem metadata in RAM - it's a lot easier to be sure how long file access will take if you don't have to go jumping all over the place looking for it.
Actually, it has some RTGs, but they're little bitty ones with an aggregate heat output of maybe 6 watts; they're used to help keep the heavily-insulated electronics box warm, although there is an electric heater to suppliment them.
(Not to mention the heat from that mighty 20 Mhz radiation-hardened PPC running the thing.:)
The real question is, does this mean we get the commercial skip and internet transfer features enabled on the 5xxx (and/or any new) series boxes from Replay, and not just the older 4xxx like I have?
(*NOT* that there has been an implementation of true communism, except on extremely small scales.
Not for want of trying. Even if it were a good idea, communism as an economic system requires a political system that won't scale in terms of space or time and will fail disasterously if you try. "True communism" has not been implemented, not because of cruel chance, but because it has infeasible requirements.

Excellent. Debian will just stay on 4.3 until the copyrights on 4.4 expire, and move ahead then.
And somewhere, right now, an IBM salesman sits scheming, knowing that that promotion will be his if he can just get McDonalds away from SCO...

That's a problem for startup, but not continuous operation; with enough insulation that won't actually cost much power.
See, the problem with this is that the station wagon probably has *more* bandwidth, which is not really a point he wants to make.
Yeah, he summarized it in court:
:)
(using X->Y for Y derived from X)
If A->B->C, it does not follow that A->C unless you can show that A->C without reference to B; it is possible by implication for A->B->C without A->C.
Or, for math geeks, apparently there is a legal precident that derivation is not transitive.
Yeah, but it's plenty for calling in airstrikes...
I'd like to see apt support P2P as a source. :)

Agreed. I'm likely to be buying a new system in a few months; are there any options with OSS drivers and at least respectable 3D acceleration?
OTOH, the air on Mars is very thin.... interesting idea, though. :)

Ah, but it's the other way around; historically, those on the wrong end of an IBM IP lawsuit referred to their lawyers as the Nazgul.
Which is his business, but the sourceforge page oughn't say it's GPL if that's so.

A liquidator sells business equipment cheap. That has to be a good thing for some other savvy start-up, doesn't it?

I'd rather we had a proper constitution, checks and balances and all that
Just take the US Constitution. Works great, and we aren't using it anymore!
Are you forgeting Jaguar? Nice cars, but the mid-eighties models at least had horrible reliablity problems.
