  1. Re:Bad DRAM on Slashback: Behaviorism, Attrition, Elimination · · Score: 1

    Correct me if I missremember, iirc psram IS dram, but with the refresh controller on die with the dram itself rather than as a seperate chip. could this be the source of the comfusion? I could easily see where people who know the internal difference between dram and sram (a capacitor vs a latch) would tend to think of psram as a subset of dram rather than as a subset of sram (wich would be a more accurate way of thinking imho).

  2. Re:Don't let one of their drivers pilot it!!! on Pizza Hut's Space Program: First Launch · · Score: 1

    Well my experience only goses back to about mid 92, what the rules where before then i couldn't comment on. And if you want to tell jokes, a) make it clear, and b) if you pick on a false stereotype then expect those stereotyped to take some offence, or at least try to clear up the stereotype.

  3. Re:Pizza Hut == PEPSI on Pizza Hut's Space Program: First Launch · · Score: 2

    Pizza Hut != Pepsi Actualy Pepsi no longer owns Pizza Hut,Taco Bell, and KFC. They were split off several years ago and are sub-units of Tricon Global Resturaunts. http://www.triconglobal.com/triconroot/default.htm

    Actually Pizza Hut has fairly safety oriented pollicy. No points on driving record allowed, and a reward system that goese up the more hours without any accidents (ANY meaning your fault, thier fault, act of god demon or slahsdot effct notwithstanding) that reaches up to four or five figures. Add those incentives and requirements
    to the kind of experience you get spending all that time on the road makes you able to spot and avoid danger much sooner. You would be suprised at what you can learn, like NOT using the turning lane as an acceleration lane to leave a parking lot (they clean up an accident where i work every 3-5 weeks and in the last year at least two ambulance calls. A good driver knows his area and traffic patterns and so can get where he's going quickly without fitting that tired old stereo-type.

    The people to watch out for are teenage girls in anything THEY can consider a sports car, guys in thier early twenties(esp if car looks old) or anyone in a 1/2 ton or bigger ram(and some fords) truck with the newer rounded front ends. (and of course cell phone users

    BTW there are NO time guarantees anymore, Do^h^h er some other company pushed thier drivers to meet those guarantees and thats what caused all the bad driveing that resulted in many accidents followed by much legislation.

    sheesh i ramble on when short sleep.....
