I assume this means a would-be digital Ansel Adams will need to drag around a camera the size of a bread machine? I'm not too confident the market size is large enough for anything other than highly specialized scientific equipment.
Ansel Adams used a 4x5 camera---large format. Had this been available in his day, he might well have used it.
I've heard that some small scale manufacturers (e.g. Bernina) to make a run of a product years in advance, and warehouse the goods until they're needed by dealers. In the meantime, patents expire.
The competitors can look up the number. Very simple.

It's obvious from your comment that you haven't downloaded and inspected his source code. It includes some verilog files for making the FPGA behave like a Cray-1, and some python files for debugging it and loading opcodes into the simulated cray. However, if you want to run vintage 1970s computer applications----weather simulations, cryptanalysis, computational fluid dynamics, etc., you would be hard pressed to find any.
If it wasn't for the theory of evolution, there would be no need for biology. The botanists, zoologists, entomologists, paleontologists, bacteriologists, and so on would find it more productive to study their own subspecialties without interacting with other "biologists".
At $295 per year, and govt subsidized toner, paper, and labor, I think you'd be better off printing the whole thing out, rather than subscribing for decades.
Getting it to look and feel even half as good as the OED 2nd Edition might prove difficult.
I'm going to miss the deluxe boxed editions that are over 12 pounds of dead tree plus a little drawer complete with magnifying glass
You probably won't. Not if the closest you came to using it was "seeing in a bookstore." Now if you tended to give them as graduation gifts, or used one yourself, then, yes, you might miss the set's disappearance.
I don't have children. All I tried to do was connect an Ebola outbreak to a daycare facility, and, now I'm being staked by some kid all across the internet.
I think it's entirely appropriate that DRM interferes with the Linux bootloader. Linux promotes the dangerous idea that it is possible to obtain software for free, and this may lead to piracy.

That's like saying a Ferrari is a poor performance car because it can't compete against a Ford Focus on cost-per-max-speed or miles-per-gallon.
I doubt that IBM mainframes suffer from the equivalent of engine fires.
Actually, IBM can upgrade mainframes over the internet. It can also downgrade it, if the lessee so chooses. The extra chips are used for failover.
It's quad core. 24 MB of L3 Cache, and 96 MB of L4 Cache.

The trick then, is to develop a variant of homo sapiens that isn't human. Is a human brain necessary? Is consciousness necessary?
Look up Ebola reston some time. Note the address of the Hazleton Laboratory facility. What's there now? A Kindercare.

I'm not sure. It was included with my copy of ZeuS Builder Kit.

Well, he is an engineering student. He'll learn a valuable lesson that he can apply throughout his career.
If you drive around randomly, you'll probably end up in a random traffic jam.
It's only a few blocks from the friggin' FDR memorial anyway -- and its not even real blocks.
A real block? You mean a New York city block? That's about 80 meters by 270 meters-- it varies.
It's about 770 meters from the FDR memorial to the Lincoln memorial.
Nobody wants to see a cock on their TV
Ewan Mcgregor's got quite a nice one, but the folks at PBS are just too timid to show important films like Young Adam
1946 Isaac Newton Square facility scheduled for demolition
Daycare center at 1946 Isaac Newton Square .
It's an amusing coincidence, nothing more. On the other hand, it could provide fodder for a horror film.
Was CGA Palette 0 any better?
Sounds like your suggestion is a bit more efficient than fusion, though.
Yes. Fusion. Similarly, there's a way to synthesize gold from Mercury.
Let's just say that the wasted gas tends to float out of reach....
Sounds like Doctor Who.
