Ok, First, I was just responding to the fact that we just had another article explaining why what we had is fast enough. And I was quite happy that I finally got a first post.
Secondly, I happen to have access to 8 quad Xeon 550s, each with a gig of ram, and furthermore, since we're doin' research, often they are just sitting there idle with all the precious cycles going to waste (I should put them on some sort of work, I guess), but I'll tell you they are not able to recompile the kernel in under 30 seconds. We still ahve to wait 2 minutes for them to finish a full compile.
And, make sure you're looking for "Memento" as in "Something to help you remember" instead of "Momento" which is something like a little bit of Momentum.
(BTW, I'm still calling it "Momento", though, since that's what I thought I saw when I read it the first time.)
Is that there are countries who still hold ill-will towards the US. And I'm not talking about the companies in the US, or about the economic superiority of the US. I'm talking about countries who would like nothing more than to see the US gone from the map of the Earth.
China is not a friend. They have proven this. We should end economic aid to them (Can you believe we're giving these dogs money?) We should end trade with them. We should throw out there diplomats and any other chinese nationals (including students). We should make holding those American citizens (All 24+1 of them) as painful as possible, and not let up until they apologize to us.
Any movie in which meat is shown being eaten easily beats any of these movies mentioned. Here we're showing the continued enslavement and decimation of entire species for our pleasure. So the next time they show Lenny stopping at a Hot Dog stand, just think of the thousands of years of slaughter that represents!!
And the next time, the cops go to the house, watch the stuff get delivered, and then wait for whoever to come pick it up.
Or simply arrest the friend at that point. Sure, they might not have a whole lot to hold him on, but sitting in a police station with four cops staring at you and telling you you can go if you say who the stuff is for can be a bit intimidating.
The book did ask a question. If you believe it's the musings of racists or anybody else, that's a different story. If the conclusions are easily refuted, then great! We have a better answer to a valid question.
Now, I might agree with the statement "It's too bad that the media gives so much attention to bad science." For example, that statement "You only use 10% of your brain" is still thrown around with absolutely no merit.
I would only disagree with you slightly. Any question should be asked. However, many questions shouldn't be answered in the confines of today's experimental abilities. So, from your example, the question of race and intelligence may be a very good question, but we don't have enough information to answer it yet.
Or, the question of how long can a human infant survive underwater is a very good question, but active experimentation on this would be seen as bad by most people. However, there may be a way (advanced simulation) to answer it later.
But we still need to find questions we'd like to answer, since just knowing the question opens up many avenues of research and advancement.
"Some questions should never be asked." The context was a discussion of that book, "The Bell Curve", and I almost laughed out loud until I realized the person saying this was serious. Then I almost hit her.
I find that striking people that disagree with me is an effective way to prove my point. It's much easier than yelling.
If it was on the servers of the ISP's, then maybe they should be liable. If they simply had users that were getting their kicks using the service, then there is a problem.
So could I pantent the idea of making new versions of vir(pl) to beat anti-viral updates? And how do I sue for infringement when somebody else uses my method?
And you also have another side: In Axis and Allies, research is encouraged, as well as some conservation of resources (money) for later when things are bad. Also, there's the added point of building more factories and creating more money by seeking out more land.
Sadly, in some way, I might be able to believe that a Palm connected to the net consumes more than a stand alone palm.
For example, if we count the telephone equipment, routers, etc along the way for the communication. But then we should only count the fraction of the performance being used by the Palm. So, if a Palm used 0.001% of the bandwidth of a switch that used 15W of power at peak load, then maybe we should put that.15mW on the Palm's "Power budget". But then, to be fair, we would need to take that off of the alotment for the switch.
It just comes down to where the power is assigned to, and I still don't see how the Palm could use as much as a refrigerator.
But really, I completely agree with you. However, people have always been the ones to advocate change. The US should not police the world, nor should we make other countries follow any type of standard we think that they should or shouldn't have. While the internet is a nice medium and all, if people demand more freedom, let 'em fight for it.
And then let them give it away like we're doing here in the US.
...someone who claims to have broken into your site, and expect them to not try to continue breaking into your sites after they start working for you? Short answer: you wouldn't.
However, you may want to pay these people to hack other sites. Sites of companies in your country. Sites of forien countries. And I'm sure you could get them busy enough hacking on other targets for fun and profit so you didn't have to worry about the hacking at home.
I'm not sure advertising it would be smart, however.
The problem is, the app spread between those two DE's are completely different.
I know everyone is a big fan of KDE, but gnome
really looks more Windows like, and would probably be an easier sell.
The other option would be to sell the microDistribution as "Red" or "Blue", and let people pick which one they want, but only include the salient points:
"Red" (Gnome) "Comes with Gnome ICU and StarOffice!"
"Blue" (KDE) "Up to x% faster! Comes with KOffice productivity tools!"
Or some such marketing hype. Sell the whole thing for $15 at checkout counters in supermarkets under the banner:
"Windows 2000 won't run on your system? Feeling left out of the trend? Try Linux! Make your old system run like new!"
Just make one of those small-form factor CD's with the "workstation" install - the compilers. Give either Gnome or KDE by default (not both), and set up everything on the system in a fairly straightforward way.
To take over the desktop market, you have to give users less choice when installing. They only want choice on the flashy stuff later.

... that we didn't need faster processors?
And a bit late with the review, aren't we?
from "I'd like to be a fly on the wall in that room"
to "I'd like to have a fly on the wall in that room"

since somebody who lays in bed all day typing on a computer and eating pizza claims to have a real life girlfriend.
Without reading the article, I would imagine the best way would be like the frustrated composer in Sesame Street...
...bang...bang...bang...
Even if I'm playing pool and put a little english on the Ball?
The word "I" isn't capitalized in many poems, or emails.
The first word of every sentence doesn't always have to be capatalized:
"i860 Boards are annoying."
And every english word must have a vowel: pfft i say.
Or hmm.
English would be the wrong language to try to pick examples from to break the sig.

Unless he happens to be referring to a small one of these.

I think we've found the reason...
