It took 9,200 Pentium Pro Processors to hit 1.06 teraflops while it takes 1 trillion of these suckers to hit 1 gigaflop (billion-operations-per-second)
A PPro is roughly 2"x1". A test tube is about.25"x5"
So basically if you replaced all those PPro's with these you could build it only using 106 test tubes you would reduce the area needed for just the CPU's from 19200"x9600" (1600'x800') down to 26.5"x26.5" (2'x2') That is some major saving on floorspace down at the co-lo. Absolutly amazing.
We all watched from here http://zeromag.com/toqer/shangrla.gif On my families ranch south of san jose (on mt uminum for those in the know)
My wife and two friends left from our house around 11. We got up to the ranch, got out the burn barel (50 gallon oil drum with bullet holes) My other friends started to trickle in 15 minutes after we got up there.
There was two small boys with us, they had never been on private property before. They had a blast. In between watching meteors we would make them go fetch more pine cones for the fire.
We saw one meteor actually split and make a Y in the sky. Around 2:00am things really started to pick up. The meteors began falling in both series and parrelel, usually 5 at a time.
We forgot to bring beer

Instructions for getting it to work

Maybe if it had been an Atari it would have been more credable. POWER WITHOUT THE PRICE OH YEAH!
I use filenames all the time on google to find what I want. Sometime's I get lucky and find the file in a directory, with many other files related to the files I am looking for. Another added bonus is I don't have to wade through annoying banner ads or popup windows.
Online. I hate using pens, I use my PC for everything, especially job hunting. Why isn't my unemployment direct depositable? (It would save me bank fee's from not having direct deposit) It would save me postage mailing off those forms every week, and it would just be copy and paste into the fields about what jobs I have looked for.
Anyone watch Jerry Springer last Friday? They had a 400lb guy on that was wearing a spam suit, I had to put down what I was eating when I saw it. Perhaps they should make spammers watch that episode over and over, with monty pythons "SPAM SPAM SPAM" played in the background. Pound the word SPAM into their heads so hard that they become lucid and start repeating the word SPAM SPAM SPAM uncontrollably.
Or we could wire them up to this little evil device. Connect the router traffic led to a relay, connect the other end of the relay to the button on a stun gun. Everytime there is a reply to their spam they get a shock.
Hmm i'm still feeling evil here folks. Construct a device that is like the house arrest anklets they make DUI people wear except put a electric shocker on there. Unless they repeat "I am a spammer idiot who is nothing more than a sunday driver with bandwidth" into the voice recognition unit on the anklet every 2 minutes, they recieve a shock.
Maybe we should just go back to the good 'ol town square stockades and sell rotten fruit for some good 'ol public humiliation.
...slashdot sure seems to have blown its collective load several times over since the XBox's release.
And why not? I think MS is irrelevant to the fact that it is indeed a cheap alternative to the PC once we get the internal workings figured out. In these hard economic times, who wouldn't want a cheap PC?
And what would make us blow our load harder (and Bill Gates top higher) than an article on/. saying that we've figured out how to get linux, a X11 server, and SDL ported onto the Xbox. It would be like shoving a million needles in microsoft's eye when it happens.
Of course, there is the argument that we're just throwing money back into the devils pocket. Actually though, we're not. MS is taking about $100's loss per unit. With Linux running on it, it would give game developers an alternative to MS licensing on the XBox. You see, every game company that want's to make a game for any console system has to pay the console maker a royaltee on every game they make. So if we get the Xbox figured out, we could really start fucking with MS's head.
One last reason to blow a load on the Xbox, it's just PC hardware, which I myself really understand well myself. Sure I could be taking apart a SunE250 server, but who has the money or the access to one? Even if you had access, my boss would certainly look at me strangely if I had a screwdriver near anything Non-PC in the enterprise class of hardware.
Hope you enjoyed that, please aim your load away from me now.
Maybe what we need is more security around the information. We allready have most of that stuff available online.
So the simple fact is, by not being on the net, inside of a library that was built to also serve as a fallout shelter, inside of any united states city within the united states border, really does make the information that much more secure.
Uh oh, I hope I havn't given homeland security any idea's that they should be targetting website's instead of libraries. Awe man sorry my bretherin slashdotters I think I did a boo boo.
Remember the 80's? You could not walk into a software store without seeing that green planet with it's tounge sticking out.
That was my first introduction to Douglas Adams.
The marketing on the PC version of Hitchhikers was so heavy I wonder if a lot of people did like I did, buy the game first, then out of curiosity bought the book. Man what a weird series of books (good weird) I remember picking up Resturant at the end of the universe with one notion of what the title meant, only to discover in the book that it's meaning was something completly different.
I think that is one of the neatest things about Adams books, they really paid homage to that old saying "You cannot judge a book by it's cover" Does anyone remember what the secret of the universe is?
My first real break into the dot com wave was because of comdex.
There was a small taiwanese motherboard wholesaler, this was when P133's were like 600 bucks. Just a small 2 man outfit of two guys that hardly spoke a word of english. Their investors had gotten them a spot at comdex and they needed a token white boy to be their headman at the show.
I think I was only about 21 then and had never worked an office job. The thought of a company paying for me to fly to Las Vegas and put me up in a hotel was exciting to me.
16 hours without break later...
These guys would not let me take a break, a lunch, nothing. They worked me like a slave from day start to days end for 16 hours a day, 3 days in a row. My ankles were so swollen even though there was tons of people ahead of me on the plane, one show of those abnormally swollen ankles to the stewardess not only got me on first, but I got to sit in a section with a seat facing me so I could put my feet up. I could not walk for a day afterwards.
When I think of comdex, I think of painful, swollen ankles and sore feet.
apparently the author believes that the gamers are reluctant to go to war because in games such as Quake and Unreal Tournament you always end up loosing at least one game.
I've been thinking about what the US.GOV could do to get those bastards in the tunnels lately, it would involve the following parts.
Even though they asked for my help, I know/. has more integrity to keep my
privacy than they do. Last thing I want
Instead of fly by video, have fly by quake engine, it would take alot less
bandwidth to transfer 1.pak file than it would to stream video. Create
the.pak file from the data gathered by the Polaroid sonar unit and the onboard
pc104 computer. Use the 3CCD i'c to constantly capture video, but just examine
each frame with a countour trace filter, and just send the changed co-ordinates
of the lines to represent enemy movement and a still image of just the trace
(like a magic wand select tool) Connect the servos to the PC104 server and
create fly by wire control surfaces that resemble quake (i.e. WADS & mouse)
I used to work for ricochet, I know a few things about i'll have to admit:> Anyways,
increase the output on the radios from 1 watt to something decent like 100 watts
so they will have good range and less lag. As you fly these things deeper into
the tunnels, they will create a micro cell mesh network (each MAV act's as both
a client and repeater node) so the range is only limited by how spaced the mav's
are from one another. Think of them as flying landable turrents.
It's a million times safer than sending a human in there, and in terms of benefits
paid to the surviving family of a soldier or medical costs due to injury, its
cheaper. Another added benefit is if your best soldier gets shot down, he
doesn't spend 6 months out of commission, just unpack another mav and they're on
their way in 15 minutes.
Did you even bother to read any of those links I sent along? Anecdotes my ass, kids in asia are dropping out of school because of the game house addiction. OCD, and ADD are both biologicaly pre-dispositioned for addiction to games.
My father is a good case in point. He spends every waking moment in sosaria (I.E. Ultima Online) Here we have a 52yro man with 25 patents in drug delivery systems under his belt, everything from the micro-drilled holes in products such as acutrim, osmatic push pull system for controlled drug delivery, and the transdermal drug delivery systems used for the nicotine patch (he though of it one day while working with cement) He hasn't cleaned his house in years, showers once a week if lucky, and does nothing but babble insanely about the game as if it were reality. His house is a rats nest of wires, broken electronic components and a leaky roof. His ex-wife left him because he was spending too much time in the game. I'm married and grown up, so I don't have to suffer with him, but the family is worried.
For some reason CRT tubes in general are addictive, this has been known for a while. Ever watch Willy Wonka's chocolate factory? Remember the kid that was a TV addict in that movie? Even as far back as then, CRT addiction has been real. Games further this addiction by adding a "mouth feel" to the CRT. Instead of feeling that round cig in your mouth, you have a gamepad. The level of interaction in todays games is just starting to look like reality. 125million poly's a sec, 32 bit color, and 32 channel sound do a lot to bring it there. Game companies are doing their best to make games an even further escape from reality (i.e. drug) with more than just fancy graphics. Massively multiplayer games bring an element of a truly alternate reality. Other companies are looking to put electrodes into game controllers. Semi immersive VR enviroments have been around for a while.
I would keep an eye on what game companies are doing, didn't the first pokemon game cause epilectic siesures in children? Trust me, they are starting to tailor games to induce biological responses in us.
I just got my copy of wired today, there is an article about autism in silicon valley on the rise. One of the statements posed by the author was that these children gravitate towards games, they lack the social ability to read people's intentions on their faces, ect.
So what is to stop a game company from producing a game that is "addictive" towards people with these biological pre-dispositions. You can add Attention deficit, Obsesive compulsive, and all sorts of other people with disorders that are pre-dispositioned to like games. No different than Phillip Morris fine tuning the amount of nicotine in each cig (drool)nicotine yum.
It may sound like conspicary but it's probably allready been thought of. Atari could have been conducting psychological profiling of gamers to understand how to create a mass marketable game with addictive qualities. It's scary to think about i'm going away from this post now.
What about grandma, do you think your grandma really knows what a game is about when she gets your kid a playstation game for christmas? As a parent I would just take the game away, but too bad grandma had to waste that 50-60 bucks.
Man I really take offense to you calling me ignorant you unread ass. I hope the mods throw a few points my way for my reply.
"Video games are just as addictive as nicotine". I swear, some of my brain cells are committing suicide right now just so they won't have to process that piece of ignorant crap again.

And there is a few more I really wanted to find for you too, but I couldn't so sue me. One was about this kid who was shot while sitting at a game house because he stole some kids diablo special item. The kid drove across town to the other game house to kill him for REAL. The other story I wanted to find was about the guy that sat in a gamehouse for a week and keeled over from a heart attack. Not as addictive as nicotine you say? You must live in a bubble.
Yet they should be fair. You mean to tell me you cannot come up with a game that would be considered innapropriate for young children?
Climb into my wayback machine.
The atari 2600 had a game named porky's. It wasn't based on porky pig it was based on a teen comedy movie that played heavily on sexualy deviant behavior. Apologies if I start sounding like the lesbo girls coach from the movie.
Anyways scene's included nudity, someone sticking their penis in a hole in the wall (only to be nearly ripped off by the female lesbo coach on the other side) and prostitution. Some of these elements were integrated into the 2600 game of the same name. It didn't look like anything XXX because the atari only did like 160x120 in 4 colors.
Take the wayback machine to present day.
The level of graphics today are coming closer and closer to reality. Now imagine a remake of porky's based on today's hardware. I wouldn't want my 6 year old nephew to play a game like that on his PS2. C'mon be real here, some material is really innapropriate for kids to see, imagine a game with japanese rape tenticle scene's in it (which I have seen DVD's of conviently placed next to the GAMES section) Video games can be just as addictive as nicotine, more so if there is japanese rape tenticle scenes and boobs involved. Sorry, don't mean to focus so much on those japanese rape tenticle scenes (sorta thing that sticks in your head once you have seen it) but I hope I made a good point.
You can e-mail the DOJ and tell them what you didn't like about the case. I think my tax paying DOJ dollars should have been going after OBL after the first WTC bombing. It might have averted 9-11. I don't like how some of my friends have lost jobs from MS, especially the chameleon PPP group, but I look at how important it was to keep an eye on these terrorist networks now. I worry about my loved one's everyday.
I am sitting on an internal.gov video of them actually admitting what they know is here. My dilema is do I show it to the people or do I keep my friend safe. It was really weird yesterday hearing the.gov slip about the nuke thing when i've known about it weeks in advance.
I'm in a weird situation here, a friend of mine works for a.gov agency that could be a potential target of terrorist. This friend recently had me capture a video for use on the internal network. I still got a copy on my hard drive, I don't want to release it because I know how traceable anything on the net is.
The video features a doctor, and a couple of.mil dudes. The whole tape is about what threats are known to the goverment, what is on our soil now. Does.gov admitting they know of 5 suitcase sized nukes interest anyone? I got this video 2 weeks ago BTW. I feel torn between knowing the.gov want's to keep these things secret, the poor people that don't know, and the fact I could get really really busted for releasing this video. Worse is my friend could lose thier job. Anyways, here is a rundown of what the.gov said.
5 suitcase sized nukes.
Mustard Gas
Smallpox on our money.
Anthrax in the mail
It's kinda nasty cause it shows what people look like when they've been infected by these bio threats. I hope I stayed on topic here.
They're prolly using NTFS, I betcha balloons to bannana's if MS did try and accuse someone of trying to break thie proprietary filesystem all it would take is any kind of NT license to thwart the DMCA.
Slashdot Mirror
Hmm let's see..
.25"x5"
It took 9,200 Pentium Pro Processors to hit 1.06 teraflops while it takes 1 trillion of these suckers to hit 1 gigaflop (billion-operations-per-second)
A PPro is roughly 2"x1". A test tube is about
So basically if you replaced all those PPro's with these you could build it only using 106 test tubes you would reduce the area needed for just the CPU's from 19200"x9600" (1600'x800') down to 26.5"x26.5" (2'x2') That is some major saving on floorspace down at the co-lo. Absolutly amazing.
And slashdot taught me open source was embraced because:
Linus release Linux
Everyone wanted an alternative to M$ closed source ways.
I can't believe I constructed a nice sentance without totally flaming M$.

C'mon be real here, some material is really innapropriate for kids to see, imagine a game with japanese rape tenticle scene's in it (which I have seen DVD's of conviently placed next to the GAMES section) Video games can be just as addictive as nicotine, more so if there is japanese rape tenticle scenes and boobs involved. Sorry, don't mean to focus so much on those japanese rape tenticle scenes (sorta thing that sticks in your head once you have seen it) but I hope I made a good point.
How and where do I get space for 100mb? That's the file size.
You can e-mail the DOJ and tell them what you didn't like about the case. I think my tax paying DOJ dollars should have been going after OBL after the first WTC bombing. It might have averted 9-11. I don't like how some of my friends have lost jobs from MS, especially the chameleon PPP group, but I look at how important it was to keep an eye on these terrorist networks now. I worry about my loved one's everyday.
You seem to miss my point,
.gov video of them actually admitting what they know is here. My dilema is do I show it to the people or do I keep my friend safe. It was really weird yesterday hearing the .gov slip about the nuke thing when i've known about it weeks in advance.
I am sitting on an internal
I'm in a weird situation here, a friend of mine works for a .gov agency that could be a potential target of terrorist. This friend recently had me capture a video for use on the internal network. I still got a copy on my hard drive, I don't want to release it because I know how traceable anything on the net is.
.mil dudes. The whole tape is about what threats are known to the goverment, what is on our soil now. Does .gov admitting they know of 5 suitcase sized nukes interest anyone? I got this video 2 weeks ago BTW. I feel torn between knowing the .gov want's to keep these things secret, the poor people that don't know, and the fact I could get really really busted for releasing this video. Worse is my friend could lose thier job. Anyways, here is a rundown of what the .gov said.
The video features a doctor, and a couple of
5 suitcase sized nukes.
Mustard Gas
Smallpox on our money.
Anthrax in the mail
It's kinda nasty cause it shows what people look like when they've been infected by these bio threats. I hope I stayed on topic here.
They're prolly using NTFS, I betcha balloons to bannana's if MS did try and accuse someone of trying to break thie proprietary filesystem all it would take is any kind of NT license to thwart the DMCA.
