Start with a HP Proliant Microserver 40L: all in all, a 4 bay non-hotswap low power home NAS for about $200 (HDD-es not included) - or make it a media center, or whatever you fancy at that spec. I reckon you can have one or two at that reasonable price.
Sounds sweet!!
Biggest advantage... the microserver does not sound at all... it's virtually silent

It's very simple really. Our society should be encouraging its Aaron Swartzes, not hounding them to death. This benefits all of us.
Here's something even simpler: be one yourself (instead of just waiting for others to do it for your benefit - yes, your magnanimous "all of us" didn't escape me). This will bring a step closer the transition between should and is.
Every last MIT student should stop and protest the school. ... I blame entertainment/media saturation for turning the entire population into people as in touch with the depth of reality as "The Cable Guy."
Tel me again: how long the MIT students will be working to repay the student loans? Maybe this is another explanation the US student protest movements died with the '70-ies?
Ethics and morals, while somewhat related, deal with different view points as they relate to behaviour. If we're going to be scientific about judging someone's actions we first have to make sure everyone agrees on the definitions of ethical and moral, something society in general has trouble doing.
Hmmm.... I seem to feel an element that's beyond the requirement of an accepted and strict formal-logic definition; and it's also a bit beyond the line of the explanation in TFA:
“We contend there is a lay image or notion of ‘science’ that is associated with concepts of rationality, impartiality, fairness, technological progress,” they write. “The notion of science contains in it the broader moral vision of a society in which rationality is used for the mutual benefit of all.”
Science is a lot about cause-effect rationing and generalization. Even without ethical/moral judgement involved (or strict definition of terms), such a type of thinking have higher chances to increase the sense of responsibility for one's action; even if only by "How do you like the effects of this action?" (cause-effect) and "What would it be like if all the society would behave the same?" (generalization).
But why should we spend money on an asteroid capture mission when there are still banks that need fountains in their lobbies? Priorities, people!
Man, those fountains are to be built with the funds saved by scrapping the Death Star project - the one estimated at over $850,000,000,000,000,000.
Priorities indeed! $100 million worth of fountains in bank lobbies is simply LAME, the banks would be ashamed to display them.
try something like
{
std::string aux="Dummy message: ";
aux=aux+" hello buddy";// would be better a "computed value" here, based on an outer cycle index
std::cout << aux.c_str() << std::endln;
}
and see how RAII goes.
Last year, the USPS raised my 6 month P.O. box rental fee by 41%. It seems strange that they raised the rental rates even while fewer P.O. boxes were being rented in a down economy.
It just shows how the USPS (or Congress, who sets the rates) are disconnected from reality.
It is called death throes if I'm not mistaken.
Forced to swallow a poison pill and forbidden to spit (or vomit) it out.
it isn't possible to do something like C++ RAII, where non-memory resources are closed as soon as an object is destroyed,
Like allocating and deallocating the c_buff buffer each time a "std:string" gets created on the stack? And you think this is fast?
After all: it gets compiled down to the same machine code
But you still have to keep the bytecode and the VM in memory at all times, which hurts especially on a mobile device.
I doubt that APK (that is: an Android Package, not the hosts-file dead-horse) requires more than one JIT compilation (which is cached afterwards) and the GC in memory.
(tell me again: why would someone want to do any of the above in a terminal?)
Because if you're working at a terminal, leaving the command-line is always a pain in the ass?
Ass... mmchhh... that's not what I fancy.
But I'll grant you the point: for some terminal (ends of the body) to be worked at, this could be tremendously effective. Exempli gratia (adjust to your taste):
cd ~/MyCollection
find -type f -name "*.ogg" -exec grep --video-frame-content "wild-riding|yeehaaa" {} \; | play
Dutch authorities and the police have made several attempts to enter the bunker by force but failed to do so.
Cut off their electricity. That can't last real long even if they have generators and they can easily do it from outside. How stupid are they? "Ok guys, let's just give up and go home. The door is really thick." What a bunch of morons.
Security isn't about adding 'another hoop' to someone's day. And giving MS the keys to your security is just asking for it.
Yes, it is! security is a matter of trade off: between the value of the protected resources and the cost of protection. And this trade off need to be considered twice, from the PoV of attacked and attacker:
1. value for you (what do you have to lose if resource is "stolen" or damaged) vs the cost required for you to protect it
2. value for the attacker (what the attacker stands to gain by stealing/damaging the resource) vs the cost required to do it
Because if you were to slice it in half, this graphene aerogel would be the exact same density and consistency all the way through, at every single molecular point inside of it.
I really doubt it, otherwise it would not be a gel, it would be a solution or a cristal (definition of a gel implies: have porous inner surface to trap the liquid)
Freeze-casting: take the material, form a gel with a solvent that has a triple point, freeze the gel, sublimate the solvent.
Graphene oxide is hydrophilic, one may try it at home using water. Use a jewelry ultrasonic cleaner to form the gel and your freezer for freeze-drying the gel. As it may take a while to have all the water sublimating, perhaps trying to freeze-cast it as band rather than a bulky form may help. Note: I didn't try it myself (yet)

but patching an idiotic user? Good luck on that!
Well, patching them is not the major problem... it's the necessary reboot after the patch: most of them never come back after that.

really, who watches porn on their phone? That just seems like a terrible life choice. Small screen, horrible data speeds, smudgy finger marks.
Business travellers who cant afford prostitutes.
I can accept that. What baffles me: why this would need to be shared?

They probably thought it was copper cable.
So they were after a copper cable, but got a navy colonel? Doesn't matter, looks like they were arrested anyway.

Yes, there are several cyberbunkers located in various countries
For every window manager, there's a terminal wishing it were a window manager.
Why have a window manager at all when one may have emacs?
Can it do all the above inside lynx? 'Cause if not, I'm going to wait a bit for the emacs module.

X0563511, did you know that hydrogen is made up of matter, and is thus a material?
On the other side, spelling doesn't matter nowadays, thus your post is immaterial for the context of /.
We already have analogy finder. It is called mathematics.
Excellent. Now, if someone would apply mathematics to invent a "car analogy finder for mathematics", I'd be able to get it.
I rather like having a rare and mysterious skill set that guarantees me high marketability and a respectable salary.
