Perhaps you responded to the wrong comment. See http://cci-reanalyzer.org/dail... , which is the source of the CNN misinformation. Today the Arctic region is 5.14 degrees Celsius above average - on 5/18/2016 it was 2.2 degrees Celsius above average.
The slashdot post, and the CNN article, are wrong. The original data shows a 2.2 degrees Celsius *delta*, and everything after that is just bad, sloppy math.
See http://cci-reanalyzer.org/dail... - today's result is +5.14 degrees Celsius above average. Very warm, but nowhere near the 20 degrees Celsius erroneously cited on Slashdot and CNN.
The slashdot post, and the CNN article, are just wrong. The original data shows a 2.2 degrees Celsius *delta*, and everything after that is just bad, sloppy math.

If your society is not truly "opt-in", then Big Brother surveillance is the only real option for safety.
We (America) let tons of people into our country with all sorts of whacko beliefs (yes, blowing up buildings full of civilians defines you as a "whacko"), and we have lots of homegrown nutters too.
Being/becoming a "citizen" is easy, all citizens get the same rights, and everybody gets to vote.
Many people never display an iota of civil responsibility, yet they are granted the same "power" (rights + votes) as others who would sacrifice much or all to contribute to the common good.
If you make it tough to become a citizen, then all of a sudden you might not need to monitor citizens.
This is the reason for the tarrifs, as well as the price drop.
Also, the chinese are using the technology Americans are developing, and then losing money on this in order to kill American businesses.
This is the reason for the tarrifs.
Slashdot, I'm disappointed in the quality of your post.
Are we the only ones that have read REAMDE? I think somebody at Blizzard has, that's for sure. One of the next-generation MMOs is going to outright copy T'Rain, and then things will get interesting. Why not allow real money and gold to be interchangeable? Insert Blizzard (or another company) as the currency-exchange (they charge a fee of course), and everybody wins. Those with more time than money can play cheaply and even make money by digging up gold. Those with more money than time can buy gold with real money and get fun stuff.
Linux is at 1% of the desktop/browser client market, and is now behind both IOS and Android in market share, and losing ground rapidly.
KDE, GNOME, etc. all need to go away for Linux to have a shot at being anything more than a backend server OS.
As long as there is no standard "Linux" desktop environment, then it will never be able to compete for end users.
This article is mostly lifted from the great book "Physics of the Impossible" by Michio Kaku.
If you want a more in-depth look at the possible physics behind light-sabers, check it out.
It is written for non-physicists, and covers possible future solutions for technology popular in science fiction, including tractor beams, force fields, teleportation, etc.
I was given the task of handling 10k concurrent connections on a $500 linux box.
Standar IO (multi-threaded) quite simply could not cut it - the OS context-switching overhead is prohibitive after a certain number of threads.
NIO can handle 10k concurrent connections easily, and keep scaling.
At lower-volume, even up to 2000 concurrent connections, regular IO will be fine.
But for higher-volume, NIO is a must.
Good answer!
But, I bet if you asked them, they would prefer to be setup with OTA digital cable (free!) + internet connection + Xbox/PS3 + Netflix Streaming + Call of Duty 2.
And it would probably be cheaper than purchasing/maintaining all of that cable equipment.
I realize that this does not solve this engineer's problem...but why does a small municipality need TV in their government buildings?
Workers should not be watching it, and presumably nobody is living in these buildings or hanging out there in their spare time.
The only use I can think of is for waiting rooms, and a few donated newspapers/magazines would solve that.
