If you did you already actively gave approval for military action. Sorry but trying to pretend you are too good of a person when you already voted for a president that takes unilateral military action in nations we are not at war with. That is active consnet folks. If you say pull the trigger refusing the make the bullets is just lying to yourself.
"HTTPS doesn't require much at all" But it is not without cost. It takes more power if nothing else. I think the issue is why punish sites that do not use HTTPS if they have no reason to use HTTPS? Why do I need to use HTTPS on a website I create that is totally public, offers not login/forums, and takes no payments. Maybe a site dedicated to building Control Line airplanes?
"This is standard overclocking stuff and has been for many, many years." No, you are wrong. "The attempt here is to suggest that abnormally massive cooling equipment is required when that is not supported by the facts." No, you are still wrong. Can you config it on PCPartspicker? Can buy it on newegg? Let's just march down the line of overclocking, shall we? Level 1. Aftermarket air cooler like the Cooler Master 212. Level 2. Massive aftermarket air cooler like the NH-D15 Level 3. AIO water cooler like the H100. Yes level one and two can go back and forth a bit as to which is better. Level 4. Custom loop. Exterme phase change coolers, active coolers, dry ice, and LN2. The cut-off point is do you get the CPU below ambient. Or even better below freezing. What you do this as a demo and don't tell anyone that it is not a product and is being massivly overclocked you are trying to pull a fast one.
Pretty much. High-end systems like the Pro should be thought of as tools and not fashion. A nice sized case with slots, sata, m2 and space for lots of drives. They could do a reference design and add an advanced heatsink and fans to keep the noise down.
They both have. The officer that made an error in a tense situation has lost his job. The swatter is I hope going to jail for a very long time. What I can not understand is how so many people are so anti-police. The officer was told that this was a hostage situation and that the caller had already killed his father. They where also told that hostages where all female. A guy walks out and then reaches for the waistband of his pants. The officer thought he was going for a gun and shot. Everyone seems to want a physic perfect police force where they know that the call is fake and can react without any fear or error. The swatter did it for money and the LOL and then bragged about it on a youtube channel. Let me help you out here. There is this thing called intent and it does matter.
I want a new macbook with M2 and SODIMMs. Yeahh I know good luck but I like apples OS a lot and I really do not like windows. Linux if fine but I need Office. BTW Do not bother with telling me about Open Office. I keep trying it but it is not as good as Office.
One of the rules of the universe you learn as you get older is. "No matter how stupid, cruel, or evil a thing is, someone, will think it is a good idea."
It isn't really about the tools. The truth is the tools are cheaper and more available than ever. Eclipse CDE and g++ for example. Computers are cheap and available as well. Want to learn? You have all the information you want online. What it is really about is complexity and expectations. Back in the C64/Atari/AppleII/TRS-80/Coco days you could understand the systems. It was also possible for a single person to write a game or utility. Today people expect more and the systems are more complex. A Pi is more powerful than the workstations and minicmputers I lusted over as a kid. Would it be great if Microsoft included Visual Studio? Sure but that is not the limiting factor? No. Now all the cool little SBCs out today are really cool options and very much like the old C64a
Yep, what offends me might not offend you. I had a friend that was so offended by a church that paid to have a booth at a city holiday festival that he complained that it violated the separation of church and state.
It is an annoying fact but most first launches are simply mass simulators. AKA dead weight. I guess a car is as good as any other mass. It would seem logical to offer it to a much of student projects and or spare NASA probes. The problem with that is while it could get a free ride you still have to fund the ground support and if they blow chunks you have the fall out from that.
Actually, the classified military satellites are for a noble cause. They help keep the peace and because of them allowed the first arms limitation and the arms reduction treaties. They have also helped to monitor ceasefires.
The problem is that this is highly reflective and could cause astronomers problems. Good news is that it is big enough, light enough, and low enough that it will only be in space for about 9 months.
This was a test object for the launch vehicle. It did not cost millions. So do you go to the movies? Drink alcohol? Play video games? Why don't you use that money to help bring clean water to people that need it?
Yes this was a bad idea and a little bit self-indulgent but overall not super evil or expensive.
"Why would anybody assume that the situation is exactly as described by the caller? " He had to assume the worst case which is pretty much what was described on the phone.
I still do not get this police hate for this guy. The SWATTER committed an act with full malice. The police did not act with malice.
The law is would have a reasonable person thought that lives where in danger. The answer is yes. Frankly the Swatter should get charged with murder but in the state it happened the act of calling in a false report is not on the list of felonies that qualify as a death occurred during. I really hope they add that. I think Swatting should carry a mandatory $500,000 fine and five years. It is not a victimless none violent crime.
He reached for his waistband... Where a lot of people tend to put guns. What could he have done? Kept his hands up. But what could have prevented it? If the SWATTER never called the called the police setting the entire thing up.
The only hostages according to the phone call where his mother and sister. In other words women. The person that walked out was male. The police officer should probably not be a police officer any longer but no he will not get charged. It was reasonable for him to think that lives where at risk. I find the police hate to be really annoying. Let me explain the concept of intent to you. The officer was intending to save the lives of two hostages. The SWATTER was intending to put people lives at risk for the LOLs and $$$...
What do you have against Macs? I am a Linux Developer, I have MacBook Pro "The old one that lets you upgrade the ram and drives", a Windows system for FSX, several Linux boxes, an Android phone and tablet, a Kindle tablet, Apple IIc, and an Amiga 3000 with a video toaster!
Really folks stop making certain tech into your God. Tech is just a tool and frankly, all tools are kind of cool in their own way.

Yea look at the flop Arm is. No one buys that anymore.
The Pre had so much potential.
Yea drop the iPhoneX and speak the truth. Android is following Apple by looking into copying the Palm Pre's UI.

And when you do get-apt you almost always use sudu.
Oh I am sure it will deter some.
I love the idea that they want to take anonymity away while posting as an AC.
I think we should ban AC posts from slashdot.

And for the interview process?
Do the also fight mandatory Union membership?

So you do not believe in free speech?
Nice.....
So would you feel the same about the Black Lives Matter protesters that blocked the roads?
And the crackpot left I hope? Maybe the Nation of Islam?
