I suggest encrypting everything multiple times with a more simple encryption algorithm. I find it gives me twice the security at virtually no performance loss whatsoever. Myself, I use ROT13 twice.
I wouldn't imagine it's anything to do with the game being compiled, but I would suspect it's due to the processing power to constantly monitor and detect commands through the camera. That monitoring may be computed via OpenCL/DirectCompute which would leverage the GPU's compute power to perform that task. Simply unplugging the Kinect would likely stop that monitoring, freeing up the GPU for other tasks.
Similarly, I find that using the compute power of my video cards to run Folding@Home renders my computer nearly useless.
Seeing the headline in my RSS feed, I checked the article's comments expecting the appropriate meme (or even just an obvious response). I find there is satisfaction, like you mentioned, in seeing not only that the reference has been made, but how well the execution of the reference was done and if any originality was put in to it. In this case, I was hoping for something along the lines "..so you can fusion while you fusion."
Ideally for me, a reference will be made as merely a humorous hook to a serious discussion. Even the expectation of a meme-based reply often hooks me in to reading an article I normally would skip over.
That’s where things get interesting. Say, for example, you play a YouTube video. The pCell data center would request the video from Google’s servers, and then stream it to your phone through those 10 antennas. But here’s the key innovation: No one antenna would send the complete stream or even part of the stream. Instead, the data center would use the positions of the antennas and the channel characteristics of the system, such as multipath and fading, to calculate 10 unique waveforms, each transmitted by a different antenna. Although illegible when they leave the antennas, these waveforms would add up to the desired signal at your phone, exploiting interference rather than trying to avoid it.
Just because some of their routers run *nix doesn't mean the software Linksys put on it is flawless. Doesn't matter what it's running if their grubby little hands were all over it.
I believe you're picking nits slightly. Regardless, you're totally right and the above AC is technically wrong. There are a good number of alternative router OSes available, many of which run *nix.
I've heard similar things. Seems most cars on the road these days read accurate via OBD2 port (compared to GPS), but read a few MPH high on the dash. I've wondered if this is intentional.
Yes, I get the joke, but joking aside, I've seen this in Canada for a while. I don't know if I'd call it "new". It's always fun to pop up to Vancouver and have the person behind the counter (typically a young Asian girl, being Vancouver) stick my non-chipped card in the reader, become confused, pull it out, stick it in, become even more confused, pull it out, sudden realization, awkwardly swipe the card, start to walk off until I say "You'll need a signature from me".
Makes me feel outdated, tbh. I thought this was America.
Even ignoring any potential spying and just going off a mix of reliability, functionality and simplicity, I've found that cars in the 90s and early 2000s seem to be the sweet spot between having enough electronic management to run well while still being simple enough to fix it with a wrench and eBay parts when something goes wrong.
I'm no expert in the field, but I don't think engine management has made any huge leaps and bounds over the technology used in mid-90s fuel injection.
Anyone else watch those TV Documentaries where the ads for it say "We answer mankind's biggest question. DO. ALIENS. EXIST. Tonight at 5, only on the Discovery Channel." and when you watch it, it concludes with "..so, are there aliens out there? The answer is a definite.. maybe." *roll credits*
Misleading article is misleading. The entire network itself handles 54Tbps. The WiFi network, to quote TFA, "will be distributed using about 2,000 802.11n access points across the Olympics Game sites; including inside the stands for the first time."
There's talk of ASIC scrypt miners coming out. The general consensus is that ASICs aren't generally strong at memory bandwidth and are unlikely to make GPU mining completely obsolete for Scrypt.
Google bought out Motorola Mobility a while back and I got excited about that. From a buyer's point of view, I haven't seen anything cool come out of it. I don't expect much different with this.
..and I'm thrilled that when Scrypt miners dump their GPUs on eBay en masse (like SHA-256 miners did with Bitcoin), the market will be flooded with a nice supply of Radeons.
..and yes, while I am concerned about the stress the cards are put under for 99% of their life, most miners seem to peg their card's fan speed at 80-100%.
It's fairly accepted that just because a car is left unlocked doesn't mean anyone's allowed to go in and take what's inside it. Even when you do lock it, there are ways to get in. The fault isn't the owner's for not locking it, it's the attacker's fault. I don't see why online services are any different. The interruption of service and potential loss of data is enough incentive to keep them from leaving it insecure in the first place. If not, they'll sure be taking a look at security after.

If we can build it, does that mean we can manipulate it? How soon until I can pirate my doctorate?
Oh, EFF. How I love thee. Looks like the donations generated from Humble Bundles are turning in to results.

Logged in just in case I had mod points, but alas I have none. I tried.
Something something rotten Apple. *rimshot*

That's going to be an interesting PayPal claim.
I'm aware of these sorts. They call it "swag", as if it's a suitable substitute.

Alaska too, but decently good point none the less.

Not even 802.11ac.

Have you tried turning it off and on again?
