You must still assume that the Tor nodes you are using are not hacked NSA or Chinese intelligence agency nodes, with a nice 'log traffic to disk' function added. If you really care, you need something like Opportunistic Encryption.
Its the Wifi/WWAN chips, and LCD screen which suck up the power, not the CPU. ARM is cool and all (pun intended) but if you make an ARM based Dell Mini 9, you're not going to end up with uber battery life, when you're on Wifi and running the screen bright.
Then what do they have to bank, or market? FiOS in every home is probably at the bottom of the list when you're forced to eat mice to survive in Zimbabwe.
I play 64kbps streams on Mythtv through the speakers on my old 27" TV and it sounds great. I play the same on my (rather spiffy) Cambridge setup on my gaming PC, and they sound like crap.
Everyone assumes that the E. coli bacteria "evolved" its way into better dealing with adverse conditions (citric acid, etc.). Not true - the ones who HAPPENED to be able to withstand and metabolyze citric acid DIDNT DIE - the survivors didn't evolve to metabolize it, they already could. Animals don't genetically adapt to change - the ones already predisposed to tolerate the change survive.
4th edition does suck - simplified math, weird non-euclidean map geometry, nobody dies because everyone can heal, no usb, less space than a Nomad, no wireless, lame.
Thanks for creating a fun, engaging product that plays games with "good enough" quality. The next console doesn't have to be faster and have sexier graphics, it needs to be more fun, or more real.
Since there's barely anything useful on the Moon given the cost of getting it, and there's even LESS useful on Mars (again, considering the cost of getting it), is it time to scale back the already neutered-to-the-point-of-a-joke NASA program, and let either private enterprise (?) explore space, or forget it? If you can steal an asteroid, park it at a Lagrange point, then mine it for some super expensive unobtanium thats fine, but do we really need to keep spending money playing robots on the surface of Mars ?
Slashdot Mirror
"inconveniencing 250,000 people" - who cares, other than those people? How is this news, or even news for nerds?
So did you vote for McCain or Obama?
Last Measure?
We gave Congress the power to regulate trade between the States. If you want to find the guilty party, look in a mirror.

FAIL. You should not swap, period. What is this "My Documents" directory you speak of?

Why do the nation's librarians have such an axe to grind?
What other OS companies are there? Maybe you mean Apple, but that would be "the other OS company". We're living in a monoculture.
Insert Ubuntu or Knoppmyth CD, choose the install option, walk away, done.
First Most Favored Nation status, then nuclear missle secrets, then an (actual?) Manchurian candidate. What's next ?
Its a group of socialist countries. What individual rights do you think you have there ?

I'm waiting for the 'adult' applications of this technology.

Why is everything either a YRO or Orwellian issue here? Can't it just be cool?
Where we're going, we don't need roads ...

Which is why I said "every government" - only on Slashdot does an AC get modded Informative for pointing out that the LHC is in Europe.
When every government balance sheet is dripping red, why are we doing this again ?
Yes, I know, -1 Flamebait here I come.
yes, its 2 parts douchebag and 1 part troll. Oh wait, that's the content of your post.

You mean bps connections - the modulation on a V.90 modem needs far less 'baud' to get that many bits/sec down the wire.
