I suppose it would be more important for enterprises, but personally, I wouldn't see speed as the primary purpose of having a RAID setup. Obviously it wouldn't be cool if it was really slow, but isn't data redundancy the primary purpose?
I wouldn't say stud has more *skill* than hold 'em, it's just that you can actually affect what your hand is, instead of just trying to make everyone think it's better, etc. It's not that hold 'em has the bluffing element, but that that's ALL THERE IS to the game.
So Slashdot is handing out "+5 Insightfuls" for calling things retarded now, huh? Talk about low standards. While I may agree the law isn't worth anything, I would say that your comment contributed to the conversation in any meaningful way.
I would agree that for example, 5-card stud is more of an actual game, versus a contest to see who has the biggest balls. Unfortunately, if you say "poker" everyone immediately thinks texas hold 'em.
1. "I heard an anecdote once and it was really lousy." I had Vista on my machine, then installed Windows 7. In those 3 years, I have only ever had one update fail to install, and it took about 10 minutes to fix because I didn't have the SP.
2. That's why you don't install Windows XP with any frequency. Oh my god, I have to reboot four times, once every six months...soooo much work...
And yes, before you ask, I have installed XP before. SP2 + updates = 4 reboots I seem to recall.
Yeah, my first thought was that they had ditched the circly thingie with the little circly thingies (is there an actual name for it?) and replaced it with the Debian swirl.
I ask how to do stupid things in CS classes on a fairly regular basis, just so I can understand the way stuff work. And let's not forget the classic nerd answer, "because I can." Although if this is in a research context, obviously it doesn't apply.
Guess what it hurts like hell to them there too. DUH, please get a basic education
I have to admit that I never learned the pain of a cunt punch on a 1-to-10 scale, compared to a sack kick, in my days in school. I would think that most of the pain would stem from the sensitivity of the testicles, which females do not have.
Every time I see a Lysol Hand Sanitizer commercial, I get the sudden urge to punch babies. The phrase "RESISTANCE, MOTHAF**KERS!!" comes to mind (pardon my french)...I can barely remember the last time I've used hand sanitizer and I get sick like once a year [knock on wood].

Maybe it would help to stop using the Control key instead of Shift?
Crappy code is code that people other than the original developer(s) can't maintain. Some degree of elegance is implied therein.
And Schroedinger's cat did and did not hop out!
You really should have posted that logged in :-/

Okay sorry, I meant to say five-card draw. My mistake.

It's a good thing you said it twelve times: If it had been eleven, nobody would have gotten it.
OMG MUST LEAVE COMPUTAR ON ALL NIGHT AND WASTE EKELTRICITY, hey look at my uptime!
Hmm. The caps filter is yelling at me. So...yeah...
Okay sorry, I missed the part about "without service packs." But why would you ever do that, these days?

If there's been a zombie apocalypse, I seriously doubt you'd have 5 gallons of gas to waste on any zombies you ran across.
It would be a real shame if his life support were to fail with him still locked inside. A real shame.
*Ahem* I said...
Now if only there was a way to rig up some sort of electricity-generating apparatus to their forearms, we could power the world!

Why do you think corned beef tastes so good? Chock full of fat :)

All diseases will be irrelevant when the machines take over. The first to go will be those pesky humans.
Fat is what gives the meat its flavor. So yes.
