Unless NK has a huge jump in technology any bomb they set off would be relatively low yield meaning to would be very unlikely for the US to go all MAD within seconds. If they bombed a US city they would also launch artillery strikes on South Korea, this would see US forces in Japan & SK hitting back hard, extremely quickly. On top of that the Chinese would move in fast in order to ensure they were at the negotiating table afterwards.
Realistically even if NK nuked an American city America would not nuke back. Conventional forces would be shredding NK in a matter of hours. More likely nukes would be detonated in NK by NK during that time.
No, not really. The only real nuclear risk to the US would be a bomb smuggled into a port. I'm sure this is possible but the actual damage from that would be minimal. Also the risk of getting caught is extremely high. That sort of operation would produce too much chatter to not get detected.
It would start with the CEO and work down and it would be tempered by ability. If the company cannot decrypt then it is a non issue.
In the event of an order to decrypt, if the company has the capability then the CEO will be on the hook. If the CEO orders the person who actually has the capability to unlock to unlock it will move to that person if they refuse. If the company claims no ability then they would be subject to a search warrant which looks for evidence to say they did have the ability. Also if the CEO says no they will go to prison but so will any other employee with the capability who also refuses.
There is no real risk of a nuclear strike coming out of NK. The real deterrent they have is the massed conventional artillery pointed at Seuol. Any attack on NK would have to be so overwhelming as to destroy the artillery in a minute. If not millions of civilians die.
There is not any point arguing with the AC if he is too stupid to realise that there is still gravity underwater and it is only infinitesimally changed by water depth... Perhaps he thinks his personal buoyancy will make him weightless when he is inside a sub?
Actually I just had to drive to pick up the kids from school and while I was driving I blinked a couple of times. Pretty sure that pushes me way below the 99.99% threshold.
Christ if drivers in general knew what they were doing 95% of the time the roads would be safer. Your assumption is that there is an entire mile in one go where the car doesn't know what it's doing. Where as the reality is that in ever 100 seconds it might have a blip for 0.01 of a second which amounts to 1 mile in every 10,000. It's the same with human drivers, they make mistakes, a lot of mistakes, but the good thing is that they recover from those errors before something bad happens.
For example I don't know a single person on the road who hasn't once gone "shit, they are stopping faster than I thought" and had to push hard on the brakes.
I actually don't think they are targeting the console market. I think they are taking pre-emptive defensive moves against a microsoft led store being bundled with the primary PC OS.
So me this reminds me of the browser wars. Except this time it is where to you buy your software. Back when the browser wars happened and IE was bundled with windows Linux was not a viable option. Today, Linux is, it just doesn't have the market penetration. The software itself though is mature and easy to use. If through pushing linux compatability, 10% of the market share is non-windows, then they will have done enough to ensure their multi-platform market share is valuable enough.
This is the other big win for linux gaming, even though it's not direct. You can have a windows box somewhere else in the house and use the steam streaming to access your windows only games. It works extremely well and has allowed me to turn my laptop into a linux only machine that I can run games off my desktop rig sitting in the corner. Also means the laptop doesn't cook itself.
Yeah, AMD have huge linux driver issues. If anyone wants to run a gaming graphics card under linux it has to be NVIdia. I hope that will change but not at the moment.
Dunno why that is the complaint. I play games happily in Linux and don't have a problem with the drivers. Borderlands Pre-sequel runs absolutely fine....
Steam carries a lot of good games for linux now but there are still a number of big franchises that haven't made it across. I don't think they will make the move until they move to their next major engine release.
That said I suspect that game developers are going to be watching microsofts movements with their push for a windows store again and won't want to be stuck in windows if microsoft starts putting in over the top requirements.
I don't see this as an advertisement as it is a review and pull down by a review site. Sure it's commodity hardware and its been possible to build your own fan less system for ages.
Personally if it had linked to Compulab or a press release puff piece then yes. This isn't going to interest everyone, personally I think the concept of a fanless PC of this spec is pointless, but it is a nice solution to the problem.
No you wouldn't lose 20k. Second hand 2014 models are going for $50k to $60k depending on odometer, condition and options. I'm looking at a 2nd hand 2014 with 47000km for 52500 atm.
Maybe $30k is expensive for a new car in the States but $30k in Australia for a new car is quite cheap. As an easy comparison for you a new Jeep Grand Cherokee Limited Diesel is $68,000 drive away.
We are a 2 car family. As I expect most families are. For me that means I can have the best of both worlds. I can have an ICE which I do longer trips in and an electric for the high frequency short trip.
When I compare the annual mileage of my two vehicles currently one averages about 22,500 km per year and the other only about 3000km. Of those 22,500km most are short trips, home to school, school to shops, home to saturday activity etc. Very few trips come close to more than 100km in any one go. Now that car is the nicer of the two vehicles but it wouldn't kill me to shift the say 2000 annual kms it does longer distance to the other car meaning it is left as an ideal usage case for an EV.
I think Noah Haders must not be the only one who has an issue with you. The response to him got modded off-topic so I think you pissed some people off somewhere along the line.
The Falcon 9 rocket’s countdown proceeded normally Thursday until a member of the SpaceX launch team called a hold at approximately T-minus 1 minute, 41 seconds, before the scheduled launch time of 6:47 p.m. EST (2347 GMT).
The cause of the last-minute abort was an issue with loading cryogenic liquid oxygen into the rocket, according to a SpaceX official on the official launch webcast. Both stages of the Falcon 9 burn a mixture of RP-1 kerosene fuel and liquid oxygen.
But this did take action. They started draining the reservoir straight away. This reduced the loss rate and the pressure behind the leak which then gave them the ability to cap it. It really isn't that easy to do. As for the size of the leak the total loss is equivalent to around 5 Billion cubic feet (that is the normal measurement not tonnes), this compares to a US production rate of around 2,400 billion cubic feet per month.
It is still the worst methane leak in american history but it is far from as bad as some are making out.
Even discounting the deathtoll component the rebuilding costs in environmental terms would far exceed the environmental impact of this methane leak. Stupid.
I don't know. I don't know how hard AKI is to identify in the the emergency room but it's obviously hard enough that half the patients that die as a result of it were deemed later to be savable. Perhaps the AI part is expected to make assumptions based on a wider range of other medical histories and flag where it thinks there is a reasonable chance on limited info. Perhaps AKI doesn't show up as a clear out of range, or that the out of range could easily be blamed on other conditions.
In an emergency room staff are generally working under intense pressure with limited information. I can see something non physically obvious being overlooked in the rush to stem other things like bleeding out. Here the software can ping a doctor and say "Patient information points to high risk of AKI. Check them"

Ah you know that SteamOS is ubuntu right with the steam client autostarting in big picture mode and some of the desktop stuff removed. That is all....
And if you could point me towards one instance of a machine being compromised as a result of steam that would be really useful as well....
I think you should just calm a little.
In addition to this I have a 2007 Subaru Impreza which I paid $27,000 new for and am aiming to sell for around $10,000.

At a guess I would say it will run on NHS infrastructure. Large scale health record leaks would lose government its office.
But this did take action. They started draining the reservoir straight away. This reduced the loss rate and the pressure behind the leak which then gave them the ability to cap it.
