Solaris can use a swap partition or a swap file on disk. You can even add more swap space while Solaris is running using mkswap. Had to do that a few times...running Solaris does not mean that your developers know how to create scalable software...
Yeah...the European Union vs. Microsoft. The big-bureacracy socialist against the openly evil capitalist. Let's watch them fight. Anyone want some popcorn?
I'm reminded of a quote from an arms dealer in a Chevy Chase movie: "Whoever wins, we win. Whoever loses...we win".
Despite the obvious risk of referring to "The Next Generation" as a good science example to follow, you will remember that Picard's attempt had no effect whatsoever.
He should have sent them a uuencoded video of Hitler in the 1936 Olympics instead.
Wonder how much the motion sensor (and developing/debugging the interface) adds to the cost of said laptop.
These applications are just hacks, and have no usefulness, really. I'm sure in due time someone will figure out how to use the motion sensor for input for the disabled, though.
That's why someone hand-scribbles the address in Chinese during processing. I live in a smaller city outside Hangzhou, so don't tell me it doesn't happen.
As for your friend...Chinese efficiency. What can I say?
Sorry my comment can't be longer, but I have to report to jury duty for a witch trial. Between that, my part-time job patrolling the streets beating people for not reporting to church at the designated time, and entering nightclubs and arresting women who wear revealing clothing, I don't have enough time to censor my own internet postings.
Someone out there actually watches CCTV9? And they're not trapped in China? Most boring TV channel ever. Nothing else has been quite so effective as getting me to turn off the tube and go outside to have a life.
Yah...back when I worked at one of AMD's fabs in Inventory Control, we had a big batch of 286 chips come through that had been mis-marked. Evidently, erasing the markings was highly taboo. So, we had all these perfectly good chips going in these 55-gallon drums to be broken up. I walked out with a few strips in my tucked into my socks. Sold 'em to some guy who said he was going to build a parallel computer. They were surface-mount, but I think he was just doing it for the cool-value anyway.
By the time AMD started making 386 chips, we had a chip-breaker in front of the drums:(.
You ever lived in a neighborhood of prefab houses? I've seen 'em. If you want to save a few bucks on materials so you can live next to people with junked cars in the front yard, be my guest. Sure, try turning them in for code violations...the city will get right on that pressing issue, I'm sure.
My father builds and sells houses for a living. He won't touch prefab housing with a 10-foot pole. You know why? There's no buyers for it. Here is a list of people who buy prefab housing:
1. White trash
I suggest trying to convince a buyer that a $(not as cheap as you'd think) prefab house is a good idea and will keep its value for years to come.
Do YOU want to live in prefab housing? I didn't think so.
Prefab housing has a well-deserved reputation for being cheap crap. Try looking into its resale value someday. And the neighbors...yikes. Do you want to live next to white trash?
Jeez, why don't we just airdrop geodesic domes for housing.
Of course, they got caught, and settled out of court for an appropriate bribe (err...settlement)
You'd be surprised how often this works. The cost of further litigation only enriches the lawyers, not the shareholders involved.
PHB1: How much is this gonna cost us? Accountant1: $XX PHB2: Let's lie and say we lost the emails. How much will this cost us? Accountant1: The same as if we bribed them (settled) PHB2: OK, let's see if this 'dog ate my homework' defense actually works...sometimes it does!
(time elapses)
PHB1: It didn't work. Release the bankers! Accountant1: OK! PHB2: We sure have fulfilled our obligations regarding our shareholders! PHB1: Amen, brother. Accountant1: Whatever you say!
Yeah...if the Islamic suicide bombers had reached their targets, killing large numbers of people, surely Kashmir would have become independent immediately!

Isn't it annoying when people start a comment in
Yeah, I was bored, and actually went to #riskybus the other day. The channel had 4 people on it, and Robbot was not there.

Well, he did write a book about 6-year-olds who committed genocide and were hailed as heroes for it. That didn't tip you off he was a lunatic?
Star Wars fiction is to Star Wars what military music is to music.

China Post understands pinyin just fine, thankyouverymuch. Freakin' showoff.

Huh? Did that have a point of any kind? General Washington, hello?
The Continental Army made a habit of attacking civilian targets with no military value? When was this?
You know, Sakharov, Ghandi, Osama bin Laden, Nelson Mandela, those types of guys.

The lady at the bank this morning used an abacus to calculate my change when I paid my electricity bill. Really! (I live in China)
