Most tablets nowadays get 8-10 hours of battery life under moderate use. The only times I can think of where more longevity would be helpful is camping or on international flights.
Nobody's pointed out the oft-reported decline in creativity that comes with some of these treatments. Those perturbations in linear thought processes aren't always bad...
1) Build robot mining and material return system 2) Create human clones in suspended animation to manage the robots 3) Fling clones and robots at Mars 4) Nothing goes wrong 5) Profit!
Not all US public education is bad... In 11th grade we had Computer Science I which was in intro to programming with Pascal, working from Hello World to drawing graphics and very basic algorithms. In 12th we had Computer Science II which was taught mostly in C with a diversion into x86 assembly, covered search and sort algorithms, and data structures focusing on linked lists. We used Borland Turbo tools which had a great IDE complete with built-in language reference. Classes were about 1/3 instruction and the rest lab time for doing the assignments, quizzes, and playing around.
All this in Texas (Richardson ISD), which doesn't have such a good rep for education these days...
If you have the power budget and space for one of these GPUs, then throwing a mini-ITX board in the mix is the sane solution. An AMD E-series platform is going to draw a small portion of what a modern top of the line GPU will require.
My problem with this is that it's not an underserved market: there's XMOS and Propeller have both been around for a while and neither sells in considerable volume.

Small scale, high tech agriculture is becoming a big thing in the area. There's a company not far from Austin that recently had a successful Kickstarter for a mostly automated modular greenhouse system (search for Horto Domi).
Yes. Cherry Brown gives enough click to feel when the key is actuated without making much noise at all. Once you get used to that you'll stop slamming the keys all the way down and you'll make less noise than with even a cheapo rubber dome.

You mean like one of these?

However, Inspector Spacetime is pleased.
This. Maxima on a netbook mostly replaced my HP48 during some calc courses I took a couple of years ago.
Always fighting for the users.
That's adorable.
If it's a Fisker Karma there's fire inside too.
Ask the Raspberry Pi Foundation. USB is the only high speed interface on or off of that chip.
People may bitch about fracking, but it doesn't hold a candle to the environmental damage caused by mountaintop removal and coal mining.
Just make sure to keep that candle away from your faucets.

I think you're using it wrong.

I think you may have replied to the wrong story.
Yeah right Lisa.
Now get off my lawn.

"Austin Sea Veggies are back! You can get them every day at Wheatsville Coop in the refrigerated produce section.
For wholesale information please send us an email."
I've also seen them at the local farmer's market in the past.
You must be new here.
Oh wait, you are. Rage on.
I can't, they've been dead for thousands of years.
And ketchup. For the tapeworms.
