Pardon me, I mistook you for someone who can maintain an intelligent discussion. Apparently, if someone opposes your view, you resort to calling them names, so allow me engage you at your level:
"No, you are!"
and if you think of a snappy retort, try this:
"'No, you are!' times infinity!"
It's ok, it's even ok that you act like a child because you are wrong:) We've been known to fight wars over people telling us what to do. Just sayin'.
Congratulations. You are among the few (but growing in number) who not only can't RTFA, but lack the attention span or comprehension skills to read the summary itself.
What I want to know is how is the fact that you guessed supposed to make your erroneous spouting better?
When you spout misinformation, which is a serious problem on the internet (i'm looking at you conspiracy theorists), the fact that you guessed doesn't absolve you, since 15 seconds effort on your part would have meant 1 less piece of misinformation forever preserved.
I propose that you sir are an internet asshole (not that this particular piece of misinformation means a goddamn thing, since everyone who reads/. knew you were wrong, but THINK OF THE KITTENS!)
Point is, misinformation is a problem here, and being glib about the fact that you're a lazy trollop makes it worse, not better.
In computing, symmetric multiprocessing or SMP involves a multiprocessor computer architecture where two or more identical processors can connect to a single shared main memory. Most common multiprocessor systems today use an SMP architecture. In the case of multi-core processors, the SMP architecture applies to the cores, treating them as separate processors.
You disagree with Wikipedia. That means you've been proven wrong in front of the whole Internet. Hang your head in shame.
ZOMG I'm so ashamed I guessed wrong! I'm not sure how that means I disagree with Wikimedia though. What color is the sky in your world? Note: In mine it's blue!
Just FYI to all the people in this thread misusing the term. Fluorescence require an external source of radiation to glow, but only during that exposure. Think UV light and neon paint.
The linked Q&A with the astro-biologist was amusing. It's almost like someone paid him to refute everything with the blanket statement "scientists should be more concerned with global warming and loss of biological diversity."
It saddens my little heart when we have professional scientists saying we need to do something based on less than 100 years of empirical data. Global warming was a few BILLION years ago in Earth's history. Get the fuck over it.
So in summary, you're a totalitarian. In the US we frown upon people dictating to us, in case you hadn't heard.
What I call Movie/Film studios, you wrongly call "content providers." Your lengthy post did nothing to refute my claims that when you lack content, you can't provide anything.
Sixteen years ago, at the end of my highschool career, I was very into overclocking (had multiple celeron 300A). With peltier cooling I was able to run a 300mhz CPU at 450mhz with rock solid stability (ran things like prime95 24hrs a day for weeks). People were starting to experiment with liquid cooling commodity white-box computers.
One of the more interesting applications I saw was an old styrofoam cooler converted into a PC case. All components were submerged in a bath of cold mineral oil. I remember thinking that the data centers of the future would require SCUBA certified technicians in dry suits to swim down to the racks and swap out the broken module. Maybe I was thinking too grand, and this would be feasible as submerge-modules with aquarium like tanks instead of racks.
I'm curious what America's response would be to their people being demonized. I'd love to see a game set in Iraq or Vietnam where America invades your country, kills your people and attempts to rest control of your homeland away from you. Or how about a game focused on WWII's war between Japan and America that ends with 2 of your cities being vaporized?
I would love to see games from a different perspective. It would be refreshing. That and it would generate a lot of amusingly ironic commentary from Americans.
The response would be "Who fucking cares?" Then the silence that would echo in your ears would be all the Americans not caring.
Everyone in the whole world already knows the worst possible thing you could be on Earth right now is: White, Christian, Male, and American. We are already demonized in every other form of media around the world, do you honestly think we would give a flying fuck if it happened in a video game???
Trust me when I say we don't care what you think about us. Try to fuck with us too much though and see what happens hahahahhahaa!
Does it matter that Stalin was, in fact, not Russian? Just askin'...
No. Just sayin'...
The fact of the matter is that any former member of the Soviet Union will be forever ingrained in the heads of the West as simply being, "Russian." Don't like it? Tough cookies.
Oh boo hoo. Russia has a bad history, it should expect criticism
While we Americans were sitting on our rears eating bon-bons, more Russians died than in all of America's wars combined fighting Adolph Hitler. Love them or hate them, forced by circumstances or not, the Russians did more to save Western Europe from Nazism than anyone else.
Patently wrong.

Don't use the device.
Ahh the classical totalitarian response. You know, in the days of old you would have been ridiculed into seclusion. Now, unfortunately, not so much. Go fuck yourself, OR stop reading Slashdot. See what I did there?

MTV has a network for you.
Is that network called MTV?
So you just have to go mine clearing in the dark.
Once again, I didn't use the word. Therefore I have no need to be informed of its meaning, especially by an idiot like you.
WOOSH WOOSH WOOSH WOOSH That was like 4 planes going by.

My guess is that you are anal.
If anyone is still reading and has mod points mod parent up!
Yes, yes it is.

Firstly, yes they are http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Symmetric_multiprocessing#SMP-capable_processors Secondly, what does SMP has to do with anything?
Oh you know, that thing you do with dual processors? Just sayin'.
Yes it does, don't be pedantic.
Technically is a single Core2Duo/Quad or Core iX CPU considered SMP? I would guess no they are not.
I love how stating the truth is trolling. Ahhh good old /.
Yes, I use Yahoo when Google is too swamped to respond
Ok, you won't use Bing but you do you use Yahoo? Does someone else wanna handle this one? *facepalm*
I didn't mention fluorescence. Neither did the article.
Posting to correct your misconception about artichokes.
Wooosh or read much? Just so you're clear, fluorescence does not mean 'glows in the dark.' Wooosh on!
The temporal anomaly is located in my.. well.. temporal lobe! Highschool sucked, apparently the 300's were after. Shoot me. Meh.
Wrong, but mod me redundant since I already posted below to correct the misconceptions about fluorescence.

If you are one of the top 1000 sites you have probably already paid Google for that position.
And it will take one fat bribe to cover for the lost revenue you will get when you have left Google.
Citation needed.
Although I have not, and will never use bing
Did you ever use Yahoo? Sometimes it's ok to hate the Player, but don't hate the Game.

This is why lawyers, and subsequently our modern laws, are so fucked up.
It would be nice if history hadn't let these fork-tongued devils re-write our laws in such a way as to be incomprehensible to the average person.
