Yeah, if you use the same line from the power supply, it defeats the purpose and you might as well just plug one of them in (assuming they all go to the same power busses, which is most likely the case).
A local privilege exploit still presents a risk to such accounts. Exploit apache running on your self-contained webcam, use the local exploit to elevate to root, and then you can do whatever you want.
The question is not moving the power around, it's dissipating that much power. Useless to have 100 amp traces if the load gets so hot the solder melts.
I don't even own an Apple. I guess that disqualifies me from fanboy status. It's pretty clear though that MS copied Apple, and many Linux desktops copied MS and Apple, when it comes to GUI windowing interface elements.
Seems like it would affect investors that read financial statements more than geeks.
The article seems to imply that all companies that use stock options do so to basically lie to thier investors, and once they must account for them in a more obvious way, geeks will be paid less.
Pretty blatent bias, when the article notes 750 companies are already in voluntary compliance with the new rules.
It's kinda funny how so many companies talk about "convergence", or at least give lip service to it, when in reality it's their choices to make things different for the sake of being different that prevents it. Modern day tower of Babel.
Yeah, they change the name of it every couple years to feel elite because they are part of the "scene".
In 2001, a friend I had that was into it derided me for calling it "techno", asking instead that I call it "electronica".. so who knows what the preferred term is at any one time.
I agree, the only people that still use the nanotech label to refer to atomic assemblers are sci-fi geeks. Everyone else uses it to refer to nanoscale engineering.
RFID is all hype. It really reminds me of Java a few years ago, all hype, shitty performance. There's this marketing shill magazine "Frontline newswire", it might as well be called "RFID newswire", because the last 20 or so cover stories have been RFID.
I'm in the retail packaging industry, so somehow I got signed up for tons of RFID propaganda, it's really driving me crazy, since the technology is really simple, and not particularly useful.
It does by corporate fiat though. When they all got together, they could have decided to use standard computer resolutions for HDTV, but they didn't, instead choosing similar, but incompatible resolutions, thus guaranteeing that most people will continue to buy both computer monitors and TVs, except for the few that will use scan converters, with less than perfect results.
Well, there's always the potential to move to BJT technology and away from FET. FETs in saturation mostly just use power when you change state (i.e. clock dependant), but BJTs will use a relatively constant amount of power at any frequency.
It's just the normal ecosystem of things, when one method starts to require so many hacks that it's no longer practical, it spurs us to look at alternate methods we may have discarded in the past for whatever reasons.
Everytime I use windows XP for more than 10 minutes, explorer crashes. Sometimes it restarts itself, so a less savvy user might just think "their desktop flashed", but it's obvious that explorer is crashing.
MS has just managed to hide their bugs under auto-restarting services and daemons, Windows still sucks balls.
There might be something to that, I have little experience with Java on other platforms, other than Creo Synapse, which only runs on the Mac JRE, and will not run on any other platform (great cross-platform compatibility there).
As an addendum, my coworker, which is on an older linux which didn't have the gcj "enhanced" utilities installed, could jar -x it with no problems. He also got the gtk version up and running with little trouble.
I too can identify with the numerous problems presented by unqualified idiots who somehow rise to being the "administrator", especially at smaller companies.
Even being able to view the source can cause issues. Like showing a person how to fake data.
If you are relying on secrets in your source code for security, you never had any security anyway.
I decided to give java another try, since every time I try to run some program in Java, it either doesn't work, breaks, or is extremely slow.
So I just downloaded Azureus2.2.0.2.jar, the most active java project on sourceforge. I'm running jar -x Azureus2.2.0.2.jar, to extract it now, but it's been running for 20 minutes with no messages. I'm going to kill it, I don't know what it's doing, but a 4 meg file shouldn't take more than 20 minutes to extract.
This isn't the only time this has happened. Something fucked up happens every time I get near that abomination.
A plus for open source a negative often for the workplace.
How? If you set the permissions properly, no one will be able to edit the source that shouldn't be editing it anyway.
Regarding Java, most interperted languages will run on Windows, MacOS/X, Linux, and BSD, without the overhead of emulating some fake machine that doesn't exist.
The legal system isn't as bad as people make it out to be. People are just paranoid about being sued, and other people that want to be dicks for whatever reason play on those fears.
It's likely no suit was ever filed in the preceding anecdote.

Kinda hard if you are giving it to someone already half-asleep on vicoden or whatnot.

I meant the slashdot blurb, of course. The article is fine.

What do programs run as then? All root?
It's not a new trend. MS has made their money by creating cheap, fragile knockoffs of Apple for 15 years or so.

Maybe the FCC can't tell the electronica from the background noise on the band?
Then why does the Red Cross refuse your blood if you are gay?

To play devil's advocate, 12-15 years ago most people would have balked at motherboards with on-board network, I/O ports, controllers, video, etc.
These days, most people prefer all that stuff on the motherboard, especially for servers.

What kind of crazy logic is that? If your time is so valuable, why did you click through the story, and spend the time to post a rant about it?
