I know you think that Ivan. For your homework, try to understand that this alone is enough to put him away, never mind the conspiracy, treason, money laundry and rape.
I wish they would hold the same candle to TRUMP. He has accept many billion of dollars direct from KGB (Kremlin and Putin's secret organization) - we MUST investigate TRUMP and find these fatal flaws to impeach. Who. Is. With. Me.
60% of the USA is with you. But indicting Trump will be more practical than impeaching, given the unlikely possibility of 60% ethical/moral senators before 2020. On the other hand, indicting Trump would only require indicting Kavanaugh first, for perjury. Looks like the more direct path.
Another realistic approach is, just contain Trump until 2020, then vote him out and immediately arrest. Don Jr can go to jail before that.

Not offtopic. The bellycrawler with mod points was offtopic.
You know, if you are going to get up on your high horse and be insufferable, maybe notice that I corrected my post with a follow up more than an hour before you felt compelled to trot out your own urgent clarification.
Right. To niggle, the Seawolf class was between wars. After that, looks like fully diesel-electric, that is, Balao and Tench class. Possibly because the priority shifted from surface speed to submerged endurance.
Meltdown and Spectre mitigations will be in the OSes you run.
Not true for Meltdown, the only OS level mitigations are rip your face off slow. You fix Meltdown by buying AMD. intel doesn't even have a Meltdown fix for Cannon Lake, even if they were able to manufacture them reliably. Intel doesn't have a whole lot to say about this. If they do decide to come clean I suppose it will be roughly along the lines of, reengineering the Cannon Lake cache logic, redoing all the masks, and redoing all the testing would delay another six months than it already is, not going to happen.
The jury is very definitely still out on whether TSMC actually has achieved high volume defect rates at 7nm. But maybe only another three weeks or so. If you hear a lot of complaints about backordered iPhones later this month, it most probably means that TSMC also has issues. The truth really hasn't leaked to any great extent.
Meanwhile, I'm optimistically planning a 7nm Threadripper build for approximately 8 months from now. Until then, even the 1000 series Ryzens provide me with more than satisfactory workstation power. The 2000 series Ryzens are a no brainer.
There will be two distinct flavors of 7nm Threadrippers, maybe half a year apart. The first wave will be a pure shrink, much like Intel's recently deceased ticktock. I guess I will jump in with the first wave, I would rather not be part of the debugging team for the next gen architecture.

The cells are sealed, you can throw those li-ion straight into the chuck and they just sink. Currently gaining a lot of traction as marine batteries, the only issue is the price.
I could have written "submerged below snorkel depth" but I assumed an intelligent reader. More to the point, I erred in claiming that WW II submarines were not actually diesel-electric. They actually were.
There are no good fixes for Intel Meltdown, microcode or otherwise. Intel's patches just plain kill performance, putting single thread i7 performance well behind Ryzen. So much for the last remaining thing Intel had to crow about. It's a Ryzen world today, I heard it's already north of 30% of new desktop parts and still climbing. If TSMC 7nm plays out without production glitches, Ryzen will take the lead on desktop this spring and keep it for the foreseeable future. AMD is not ramping up their laptop effort, with a highly credible low power GPU heavy lineup. And Epyc is reportedly already up to 5% of server shipments, with 64 core (128 threads!) chips now rumored to be in the pipeline.
Well, drifted off a bit there. The point is, just don't waste your money on Intel desktop or server parts, Meltdown is a complete disaster.
Meltdown is far more serious than Spectre. To fix it, get a Ryzen, that's all there is to that. Spectre has a bunch of fixes merged to mainline Linux now. So if you're worried about Spectre, your best remedy is switch to Linux. Linux + Ryzen: the current sweet spot for performance, security and value.
Obviously a typo, laugh away. I will laugh with you. Obviously you want a real desktop Linux distro for a laptop.
I'm using Debian these days, was using Ubuntu up till a year or two ago. Looks like, Debian really improved with "competition" from Ubuntu, and now has all the good points with none of the bad points. Unless you consider systemd a bad point, which I don't deeply love but I don't hate it either and I simply learned the new admin wrinkles. It's not hard. The old way was, do everything with Bash scripts. I really don't think that is better than the systemd way, and you can still do it with Bash scripts if you want. With or without systemd, you still do most of the admin on Debian or Ubuntu the Debian way, which is generally sensible.

Right, damn them to hell! They should all be forced to carry iPhones.
Hi Ivan, for high crimes and misdemeanors.
I know you think that Ivan. For your homework, try to understand that this alone is enough to put him away, never mind the conspiracy, treason, money laundry and rape.

Trump next. What goes around, comes around.

No, you really need to tell them about how much more fragile their battery casings are than they really think. Don't hold back.

You better email those Japanese engineers right away to inform them of the terrible mistake they made, that only you can see.
For a very short time, American prop-driven nuclear bombers were a thing.

By the time a warhead gets inside your submarine you have far bigger issues than exploding batteries, if they even do.

Good to hear. Everything marine just costs exponentially more and takes a long time to ramp down.

Just for reference, and perhaps to save some future embarrassment, German "boot" is pronounced like Englilsh "boat".
Clueless is clueless again. Kamikaze tactics had nothing to do with submarines.
I could have written "submerged below snorkel depth" but I assumed an intelligent reader. More to the point, I erred in claiming that WW II submarines were not actually diesel-electric. They actually were.
WW II era submarines were not diesel-electric. They were electric underwater, diesel on the surface. A real diesel-electric uses a diesel to drive a generator that in turn drives electric motors. Obviously, this isn't possible when submerged.

Be blunt, tell them you're an expert in LibreOffice Excel.
