The Vive uses Interleaved Reprojection, which drops the framerate to 45 fps, and then doubles (and warps the second copy of) each frame. This is enabled when the fps drops below 90. More info 'here.
A grey-beard EE I knew in my LUG back in the late '90s told me stories about working to develop HDDs for mainframes, back when they were only kilobytes of storage. There was one in particular that had 6 foot platters sizes to just fit through a set of double doors; they used hydraulics to move the read heads, and had to have them in symetric pairs otherwise it would walk across the floor.
Exactly. With their culture and policy of black box secrecy and the number of times they've been caught lying both to the public, as well as to their supposed bosses (congress, senate, president) is there anyone left dumb enough to believe anything they say?
I think you answered that yourself: congress, senate, president
And as long as they're not directly being a dick to you, you're supposed to exhibit some degree of tolerance, especially in the workplace.
I would say that if you are Gay and would like to receive the government benefits associated with a marriage then giving $1,000 to stopping you would fall into the category of "Being a dick to you".
I've actually proposed a solution that addresses that. Overhaul the government laws so that all "marriage" benefits are now tied to civil unions, leaving the term "marriage" reserved for purely ceremonial (religious) use. This neatly eliminates the conflict between religious definitions of marriage and government benefits tied to marriage (or lack thereof for gay couples). The benefits would be tied to civil unions instead.
Every pro-gay marriage friend I suggested this to rejected it. The only acceptable solution to them was to strip the concept of marriage entirely from any religious influence, and hand complete control of it over it to those with modern secular viewpoints. I protested that this could create a conflict wherein a church could be sued for refusing to allow a gay couple to use the church for a wedding. They had no problem with this. i.e. Their stance is based on attributing no value to any religious viewpoint - they do not believe in freedom of religion.
Sounds like you need better friends; I know plenty of people who would be fine with that solution, but it's the fundamentalists I know who would still have a problem with it.
If you boot marriage back to a religious function, then you have to tolerate all the religions that would happily allow marriages between any two people (or more), and fundamentalists have once again lost control over "the sanctity of marriage".
The thing is that it's like Hindus (hypothetically) complaining about having lost control of "the sanctity of the cow".... It's all about perspective and what you find sacred.
We can reduce the risk by distributing the pilots in pairs in small offices all over the country. Even better, put them in mobile offices. Even better, put them in mobile offices attached to the front of aeroplanes.
Even better, put them in the front of different aeroplanes!
so there is no risk that their
tampering causes bodily injury or death..
Oh, I don't know... It sounds like an awful lot of people on this board are upset about this, which could in an edge case cause bodily harm or death to GameStop employees..
What would be more intimidating, a refrigerator-sized machine or a pack of hungry looking German Shepherds sniffing at your pant leg?
The Crushinator, anyone?
it's just a matter of time before a backscatter operator develops an unhealthy crush on a frequent flyer and starts throwing erroneous results just to get the poor traveller to stay longer.
Flying something around the world takes about 2X its weight (though there is never a reason to fly more than 1/2 way). Orbit is about 10X, but the point is still valid
That age may be higher than you realize... My girlfriend's 7-year-old god-daughter had to have surgery to remove the 7 or so Bucky Balls which she'd eaten...
I'm not sure which part of the world you reside in, but here in the US, every self-checkout that I've ever encountered accepts cash as well as debit/credit. Most technically accept checks as well, but it means you have to wait for the attendant and good luck with that...
I'd suggest a thorough review of changes made to the configs... It's been a while, and as it stands I'm not sure that the system would come up again on reboot.

Like you said, random stuff, although about half was purely mechanical (bearings, shafts, etc).

They usually figure out to get on their side of the walk by the time we meet.
I like the look on their face when I stop, and they walk into shadow and then stop, and then look up... my nose.
This! So much this!
I've had people (usually college age girls) walk right into me; No clue that I was even there. The reactions are priceless.

1) Copy files onto new HDD
2) backup partition table and post online somewhere
3) wipe partition table
4) place 'blank' HDD with all your other parts.
Later, download your partition table backup and restore it. to access your files.

It's the only way to be sure.
Then you don't have to worry. You'll know it's hot!
