the generation that grew up learning on those relics you describe has far more intimate knowledge of how computers work and how to take advantage of their abilities due to how they work, not because they have a TB of ram and 16 execution units.
the software of my calculator (48gx) is far better than almost anything I've seen in modern computers.
it would be open, but i doubt you could get any meaningful performance out of it
unless we pool our money and get a fab make us some chips:/
it costs like what! $2K for a couple hundred thou transistors, low-volume? I have no idea, but i do know one single mask for small processes (80um) cost like a bazillion bucks D:
Also, if the car is *moving* and you have strength that even barely surpasses that of a paraplegic newt, you can still steer.... What the fuck, locking the brakes is better, yeah, that is why you see them locking the brakes all the time when racing.
1994 lancia delta, the authorised dealership+service had the idea that the Ecu was at fault.
a 19 year old fat guy who merely completed mandatory education found within seconds (literally seconds, this is not exaggeration for effect, i want to emphasize this. by the time i got out of the car after pulling the bonnet release, he already had found the problem) exclaimed "duuuude the sparkplug cable is out".
i can not prove it, anecdotal and all that, but considering your experience i am sure you believe me.
current renaults have... what? they are laggy, not reckognizeable by touch and if we take the driving controls into account, the accelerator has ridiculous lag and nonlinearity, at least on my twingo II 1.2 GT

The US? The world? An individual?
decaf tastes very different to normal coffee. At least the jacobs brand that i frequent.
Um
And what good did it do to them?
Last time i heard they are being under a steamroller.
yes.
go into the mother lion's mouth to convince her not to eat you
what does he say between 3:50 and 4:05? What does it mean? What happened?
Voyager 1/2 could run about 100K instructions per second, maybe less.
It's about the objective, not raw processing power.
And this is a fine opportunity! to pour some of my bile about the miserly state in which modern software is.
> garbage collecting
AHA! so it is THEIR fault!

slackware is nice ... ?
you reach a concluding advice while ignoring the very thing you yourself said: class is for seq writes.
which means that if you write many small things in your card, you need a class 4. However, what if you need your card to write large files?
of my 32GB card in my arc, 28GB are FLAC and the rest is mostly empty (perhaps 10 photographs at most, far *far* less than even 1GB)
so your idea of using a class 4 (which i did, the 32GB it came with was class 4) would be torture for me when i update its library.
think again.
how do you manage the audio glitches when the garbage collector is run?
It's incredible. An ARM running at 1.6GHz with half a gig of mem and it can't play an mp3 without glitches.
that's exactly his point.
one could try making a cpu out of 74xx series ICs
it would be open, but i doubt you could get any meaningful performance out of it

what a load of BULLSHIT
locking the brakes decreases stopping distance? what fucking planet are you on? not locking the tires INCREASES friction. static friction is greater than kinetic friction http://ffden-2.phys.uaf.edu/211_fall2002.web.dir/ben_townsend/staticandkineticfriction.htm
Also, if the car is *moving* and you have strength that even barely surpasses that of a paraplegic newt, you can still steer. ... What the fuck, locking the brakes is better, yeah, that is why you see them locking the brakes all the time when racing.
you described it much better than I did above
thank you
we could be very good friends
i would like to share with you a story
1994 lancia delta, the authorised dealership+service had the idea that the Ecu was at fault.
a 19 year old fat guy who merely completed mandatory education found within seconds (literally seconds, this is not exaggeration for effect, i want to emphasize this. by the time i got out of the car after pulling the bonnet release, he already had found the problem) exclaimed "duuuude the sparkplug cable is out".

not 1 man.
four different authorised service centers did not even *Acknowledge* that it is an error.
but i take your advice about vacuum leak and problem with the airflow sensor.

renault authorised service centers don't even acknowledge it as a problem. in fact, one of their mechanics tried to pass it off as a feature.
i am at a loss for words
current renaults have ... what? they are laggy, not reckognizeable by touch and if we take the driving controls into account, the accelerator has ridiculous lag and nonlinearity, at least on my twingo II 1.2 GT
I have a renault twingo II GT.
it is a horrible, horrible car and with horrible, horrible service ( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O4orHdycJl4 if you're in the mood).
i have no idea what they think this whole android-in-the-car idea will accomplish.
when you have a slew of devices, carriers, api versions, applications etcetc and considering android has become a really complicated deal
frankly, i think updates are *not* talking that long.
(16GB to compile ICS? jesus fuck why?)
translated:
do you know how to steal? (implied yes as an answer)
do you know how to *hide*?
you mean like, houses constructed from rock?
funny you should mention that, structures build from rocks are really really sturdy.
just stop using slide to unlock and use two quick taps in either side of the sliding (now "tapping") widget
It's self-regulating.
Or as the great 80's thrash band Nuclear Assault put it, "apathy creates despair"
