Why bother with cruise missiles? You can probably send at least 20 drones for half the price of a single cruise missile, with the advantage of being able to reuse at least some of them.
Wow. You not only have no idea at all about Biology and Geology (and seemingly common sense), but you also fail to understand that it isn't what you call "radiation" that is used to produce energy. Then you cite a CHIROPRACTOR as a source (seriously?).
To top it off, how about some RADIOACTIVE STEAMZ? Or even better, TOXIC STEAMZ WITH RADIATIONZ.
Honestly, I had to check what the hell a subluxation is. As it turns out, it's as real as fibromyalgia ( = non-existant).
tl;dr: Can't tell if trolling or just very, very stupid.
Until a catastrophic failure of the nuclear plant, then it quickly passes the coal plant in toxic emissions.
Of course. It's also not nearly as likely as coal miners being trapped underground, or you dying because of your silly fear of RADIATIONZ! and insistence on burning coal next to your house. So, do you prefer to live next to a nuclear plant, or a coal-fired one?
Cables are the best choice, if you can accomodate them. You say you can't run them underground, so how about from tree to tree, suspended from a guide wire? I'd say that weatherproof cable attached to a wire is resistant enough. It's also cheaper than most radio-based alternatives and works a lot better than Wi-Fi.
Bulldozer was very poorly handled from the beginning. What really suprises me is that they tried the NetBurst approach: when all else fails, go for clocks.
Unfortunately, ARM seems to be focusing on a similar strategy (more cores, higher clocks, less focus on IPC)...
Anyways, I don't buy their "poorly optimized" story. They knew all about it and could've waited - surely they realized at the early stages of development that OSes aren't optimikzed for this yet. They could've delayed Bulldozer and pushed out yet another incremental upgrade to the Phenoms - the die shrink alone would probably yield better results than those achieved by Bulldozer.
Meanwhile Intel is able to get away with what is essentially 50% more performance in multi-threaded applications, 0% more in single-threaded ones (save minor influences from the memory subsystem and cache, which surprisingly have a HIGHER latency than SB). All this for around 100% more cash, plus added costs for "high-end" motherboards (still lacking native USB 3.0 from the chipset, along with only two native SATA 6.0Gb/s ports), quad-channel memory and a cooler.
...but how do people know they're just rumors? Even is they *are* rumors, they're just giving them credibility and worsening their image.
That said, forging state documents should be punished, at least to scare him and keep him from doing it again.
The signal is always transmitted, but it would be a huge drain on the battery to keep it synched at all times, so most watches sync every night, so even if the watch is off by hours, it'll sync.
Like it should be. We don't need morons shouting that random stuff is bad for us. You know what vaccines really do? Save lives. "But I know a guy whose friend's kid was affected by a flu shot!" Do you now? What data supports your thesis?
And as for cell phones, do you know what else is EM radiation? Light. Wanna go hide in a black room forever? Be my guest. Don't wanna take any shots? Then be my guest, but don't you dare leave your lightless hole.
BD's two-cores-in-ome approach makes sense on paper, as long as they get meaningful improvements in the amount of die area needed per core, which they seemingly did not get. I wonder if just finishing up those cores to Phenom II levels (With BD's basic improvements) would have been better overall, despite the added die.
...Bulldozer is massively underwhelming. Low IPC, lower clocks than expected, deeper pipelines, absurd power consumption... Sound familiar?
So much for 2 cores in one.
A virus on those computers is one step away from assuming control, assuming someone writes such a virus. Think stuxnet but with drones instead of centrifuges. Drones loaded with air-to-ground missiles, that is...

Yeah, but simply trying out addresses to see if you randomly reach the "Well done!" page is not really useful in this context.

Slightly above the chair you're sitting on.
A large clump of silicon that lays eggs and produces and extremely corrosive acid to chew through rock.
Ignorance is sometimes a gift.

Probably less than those of coal in the US since 1980.

This almost sounds like Styx, but with Korean robots.
How bad is it when what used to be your in-house fab merits a last-minute change to a competitor's relatively different process?
Obligatory XKCD: http://www.xkcd.com/505/
People regularly fly across the Atlantic, but the X-Ray scanner has a bright yellow warning advising you to not enter it.
True, didn't think of that. Anyone know what the price diffference is between something like Cat. 6 and fiber?
Why fiber and not cooper? It's not like it's going to be any more resistant. RF interference should be minimal in this environment.
300 feet is close to the limit for ethernet cable runs, but it should work well enough.

But we can't because we're "politically correct" and hope that by giving the example, others will follow. So far it doesn't seem to be working.

I, for one, welcome our new crystalline overlords. Quick, dim the lights!

Yeah, for all practical purposes it's dead ever since Oracle interfered.
