Oh, it gets better. In another of Egan's stories set in a world where everyone has been transitioning from meat brains to implanted quantum singlet computers (or something), they make the copy, stick in the chip, then let your brain and the chip run in parallel until it's clear they're in sync. Then they shut down the brain and let the chip take over.
But in one guy's case, his brain doesn't get shut down. The chip is in charge of his body, but the original consciousness still "running" on his brain drifts out of sync, leaving him trapped inside his own body as a silent observer...
But set your sights above the average and below Scrooge McDuck and you won't find many developers in that salary range.
From that it seemed like the submitter was trying to imply that there's a dip in the curve between those two, with some average developers, some rich-like-McDuck developers, and few inbetween.
Greg Egan covered that in a short story. Some nefarious types got hold of a scan of his (still-living) wife, ran a simulation of her and subjected it to torture. I think he paid up in the end.
In what sense? Is "impaired driving" a specific legal category with a limited and strict definition? Not sure what part of the linked page you were intending to use as back-up.

FTFY.

not like real film.
Would that be Agfapan AP 100, Vista 200/400, Velvia 100F, Sensia 400, True definition 400, HP5 Plus, Kodak Ultramax 400, Rollei Ortho...
You see where I'm going with this.

Not to mention practically easier, as well.
World's Smallest Dual-Core ARM Cortex-A9 Module?
Variscite has unveiled what it claims is the world's tiniest Cortex-A9 system-on-module
Is there any particular reason we shouldn't believe them?
I agree. There's a quality to film that digital has yet to produce.
Why should it?
It looks different. That doesn't mean it looks better.
Much of the "film look" can be replicated easily enough, anyway.

Is gun 3D printing so pervasive already?
It'd be too late to stop it by then. Best to nip these things in the bud.
Hitch up your pants. Air whittle. Make friends with a Chinese man!
Up to 2.5 times faster
Ah, "up to." Marketing's best friend.
Otherwise that speed bump will go way down once the device runs out of untouched sectors.
TRIM isn't necessary if the SSD uses spare sectors
See where you went wrong there?
This is a new phone, I don't have anyone's numbers. Who's this?
Because, like most conspiracy theories, not believing in them makes you actually cleverer than the conspiracy theorists around you.
Too easy.
We don't have any of the cells we started off with when we were born, for example.
Except brain cells, I was given to understand.

That's pretty derp for Slashdot.

Probably, but when did you last check the batteries in your "batshit crazy" detector?

My idea sucks but I won't admit it.
