No. The VM does not have the key. The hardware has the key and only that core can run it. Practically, someone can take the die apart, xray it, and get the key. At that point they have access to the code that was was on that cpu -- maybe -- but you can avoid total loss by distributing across a large number of cores.
The intel implementation was broken, but the idea is pretty sound. Seriously, read the papers.
The most likely case is that the EFI system does not have enough control authority to trim the mixtures for fuels that have very different stoichiometric ratios. For example, E85 may require up to 30% more fuel volume than gasoline. That means you need fuel injector with 30% additional capacity _and_ EFI logic to drive them. It's not very hard to do, it just hurts the bottom line.
The information in that article skirts the border of misleading and bogus. Almost any modern (EFI) gasoline engine is capable of running an alcohol fuel with minimal modifications. Many engines, such as low displacement supercharged ones used in small cars, _will_ run more efficiently because of the higher octane rating.
Ethanol is a very effective cleaning product. Many people seems to believe it can "gum" up engine parts while in reality it is simply stripping precipatates off the fueling system itself that may have built up over years of use.
There was no rescue for Apollo 13. They had to figure out how to get home safely just by following the directions of the crew on the ground. Thank goodness, they had Tom Hanks.:-p
Yeah, like Colorado didn't already have strangely named bridges.
"NAME THE BRIDGE - In 1993, citizens of Steamboat Springs followed a democratic process and named the new Stock Bridge just West of town the "James Brown Soul Center of the Universe Bridge." On a bright sunny day, Mr. James Brown arrived in Steamboat and proceeded to set up on the bridge, belting out the classic, "I Feel Good" to the crowd's delight. Later, the ceremony moved to the Strings tent for an autograph signing session."

Haven't orbital burns been computer controlled since the beginning human spaceflight. If I remember correctly, the manual burn during the Apollo 13 mission was not routine.
It isn't really a burn, but aren't all space shuttle landing corrections done by machine as well. I seem to remember reading that the shuttle had only been landed by hand once.
I was only being vaguely sarcastic. 1024x768 is a _ton_ screenspace for a plam device, but we can all think of ways we might want to use a larger framebuffer for external displays...If only mobile devices supported them.
Actually I believe it _is_ flammable and _I_ build race cars out of it. (http://me.unm.edu/~fsae/teams/2005/). However, my mind blanked and I forgot how high the temperature has to be before it will oxidize.
Isn't carbon fibre both flammable as well as electrically conductive?
What's the big deal?

When I was growing up my father spent lots of his spare time reading britannica. I think he read three full sets (~1960, ~1980, ~1995). That's something like 50 volumes. I know of several other people who've done the same. It's reading them that big of a deal?

You are most likely suggesting something that will increase the complexity of the project.

This version was released today and it is already one major revision behind Intellij IDEA. Why can't they track jetbrains head branch?
D'oh. Every three days....
How is an extra 40 minutes two timezones? It should be less than one.
my thoughts exactly.

800 GFLOPS was "enormously powerful" like 15 years ago. Today that's like what? A PS3? donour
Is there actually hardware in the unit to run PS/PS2 games? I would think that the cell would have enough power to simulate the old hardware.

The real question is whether I can play vidoes from an external drive, such as an iPod. Survey says...no. :(
Not quite. It was almost interesting until I found out it ran slow as hell on new macbook.

"support for 1024x768 graphics output"
Yes, we're living in the future!
I'm a moron. I should have read the link closer.
I thought mambo was just a generic powerpc machine emulator. Not the cell...
