It's almost fast enough to run the latest version of Windows with all the glittery bits turned on, but does it have enough RAM and disk space to load it?
I'll bet it mostly gets used for solitaire, or doom.
A bad driver programmer can write bad code for any platform. And, since they are playing with the hardware, they can probably lock it up, even in fortran.
1. Don't use Widows anywhere in your network. Eliminates 99% of the problem. 2. Don't plug things into the internet that don't need to be, like power plant systems. Nobody should need to be able to manipulate them remotely. Are these plants not staffed any more? If you want to view information, make a read-only gateway to the systems. 4. Don't use Windows anywhere in your network. 5. Don't use software with known holes in it, like Windows.
Here''s your car analogy. Suppose the government is banning having a second gas tank in a Ford F-250, because Honda Accord drivers have frequently been seen peeing on the side of the road. Government officials decide that limiting the range of SUV drivers will force them to stop at gas stations more often.
Logic and facts are not important to politicians, as long as they appear to be doing something. No matter how useless the results are.
it's obvious that there was an accident at Area-51, causing it to clone itself in the Chinese desert. It looks different because you are seeing he underground portion of the site, since it is on the other side of the planet. Now, be quiet about it before the Chinese discover they have a copy of all our alien technology, and hack into it using an apple laptop.
They can break things that appear bulletproof to you the very first time they attempt to use your code. You than have to debug it with a detailed description of the problem, like "it didn't work". Your attempts to follow up with the user to get more information results in a "I don't remember what I did".
If you mean the creep that did the anti-Islam film, hadn't he broken his parole conditions or something?
Yup. Someone posted a video that he is being blaimed on creating. No proof that he created it, or that he was the one who posted it. Which obviously means that you need to break into his house at 1:30AM and arrest hime at gunpoint. Anyone who may have posted a video on YouTube should be treated the same. His arrest has obviously NO relation to a video that didn't cause a riot. The federal government would NEVER take such actions to suppress free speach.
Obama just needs someone to put the blame on. Doesn't matter if they are actually involved or not. Look how he threw that movie maker in prison, even though we now know that he had nothing to do with killing the diplomat. He just needed someone to put the blame on long enough to hide his incompetence until after the election. Apparently worked well enough to get him elected.
Now he needs someone to put the blame on to cover the fact that he's totally incompetent where it comes to energy, ecology, and business. Needs three people imprisoned, one for each category. Is there going to be enough people in the world to throw in jail to cover up for all his incompetence? Soon he'll be throwing people in jail because he missed the toilet, again.
What is "really" happening, is that someone posted another video to YouTube which showed Mohammed in a bad light, so, according to Obama's rules he specified to the UN, he is punishing InTrade. Even though they had no relation to the video, someone had to be punished to appease Al Queda, so they were randomally chosen. Someone else will be chosen to spend a year or two in jail on another random charge.
With GM losing some $50,000 on each Volt that they sell, just how long will you have to worry about this? Once GM collapses, can OnStar survive very long? How many times can Obama bail them out, and will the next president be willing to continue doing so?
They usually use a sheet metal shear. Workshops that deal with sheet metal will often have one of these, and will often let you use them (sometimes for a small fee). Easiest to get free usage of one if you are a cute girl.
Become a bundler for Obama, and create a "green" energy business (manufacture solar cells costing $15+ each, to be sold at $3 each is a common one). He will grant you half a billion dollars easily. You can then take the money and immediately go out of business. You now have sufficient funding for your project, or you can just move to somewhere already wired.
Health care problems are mostly due to high costs. The only thing in Obamacare to control costs is denial of services.
Obamacare, the system that was voted in without a single one of the senators actually reading any of it, bypassing the normal voting rules because it wasn't a tax bill. "We have to vote for it so we can find out what's in it".
If Obamacare isn't a tax, why does it need the 16,000 additional IRS agents recently hired specifically to enforce it?
Obamacare was passed with an estimated $900 billion 10 year operating cost and we would be taxed an average of 1/6 of our earnings. The estimated costs are already three times higher (and still rising), so doesn't that mean they will need three times higher tax rates to fund it?
Obama stated that under his plan, older people should just be given aspirin instead of medical treatment no matter how healthy they were otherwise. At what age do you feel that "older people" should be refused life saving medical treatment.
Many hospitals and doctors are refusing to accept medicare patients because of lousy payment rates. Obama has, by "executive privilege", diverted more than $700 billion from medicare to his Obamacare plan. Will that make more hospitals and doctors accept medicare patients?
It forces Catholic institutions to pass out condoms, against their moral beliefs, with a "we'll just pretend that isn't happening" decision by Obama. Don't you feel better now, since Obama can change a religions basic tenets by executive order?
At least it brings the US one step closer to true Socialism. "Punish those who work hard, reward those who don't", or something close to that.
I'm not surprised that none of the networks are carrying it. Nader isn't a staunch Obama supporter, and I doubt either of these candidates are Obama supporters either. None of them are likely to be praising Obama's foreign policy. Why should the mainstream press be interested in something that that isn't going to help their candidate?
It helps if you chop them up into meal sized pieces before freezing therm. It's much harder to chop off a piece after they're frozen. Lawyers and politicians, however, seem to have naturally frozen hearts, which is surprising with all the hot air the emit.
Can anyone suggest a device with better PDF support?
A color laser printer.
You do realize that PDF is meant for printing. The P in the acronym kinda gives it away.
Just because the e-ink Kindles don't display full color movies is a stupid reason for not buying one. It's like not buying a sports car because you can't tow a fully loaded semi trailer with it. It wasn't built to do that, so why act so suprized?
I find it interesting that the TSA has caught more thieves (within their own ranks) than terrorists.
It seems like you hear about "airport personnel" (i.e. TSA employees) who would use their searches to locate and remove valuables from passenger luggage.
However, I have yet to hear about a single terrorist caught by the TSA.
It looks to me like the TSA is committing more criminal activity than they are preventing.
How do you propose to use wind farms to directly power my 2004 corolla?
I'll jus power it over my ObamaPhone.
It seems extremely unlikely that petrol is the most efficient way to move energy around, however, it is a way we have plenty of experience with and we have existing infrastructure that supports it. So that seems a reasonable method.
Sure you could plug your electric car into the a socket and chlarge the batteries from the grid and then use those batteries to power the car (note you are already indirect), but batteries take longer to charge than filling a gas tank.
Most people will be unwilling to wait 8 to 12 hours for an electric charge, because they are used to spending less than 10 minutes on a gas refill..
Why would having gas stations equipied with such a plant and generating gas on site be any worse than having charging stations that they charge electric cars at? Sure if you generate elsewhere and ship you now have transport costs, then again it costs to transmit power as well (and the process might have other features that make it undesirable in some locations).
How much will they need to charge for this type of gas for it to be profitable? I'm sure the various government groups will still want to tax their bites out of the price, then there is the employee salaries, property taxes, equipment costs, maintenance charges, ethanol and other mandated additives, advertising, etc. Will the price of this fuel be higher or lower than our current fuel? If it gets up to Obamas desired $10/gallon, then few will be willing to buy it.
Also, how will Obama ban it? He's been doing everything possible to eliminate coal and gas.

We want to see Darth Vader's evil clone transported into the past to save the whales.
And many, many Jar Jar Binks clones.

Because you have to deal with actual users.

it could be 'quark-gluon plasma,' a dense, soup or liquid-like collection of individual particles.

It's really sad to think that most of these systems can be emulated on your cell phone nowadays, and will also run faster than the original.
Is this what Obama uses? Everyone else sees a speech, while he watches a tennis game?
i didn't even fee that. I guefs that I just don't notice fmall details like that any more. It must mean that my eyefight is failing.
