Those that want to win. That is those that don't have to by extremely expensive graphics cards or need ulta-mega-high resolutions with 24 monitors, etc.. These use single monitors so that have full range of view without moving their head and use lowest possible settings in order to accelerate game play and responsiveness. They often uses other pieces of antiquity like keyboard/mouse cords and ethernet cables. These people often save hundreds of dollars (sometimes more) by using "lesser" graphics capable systems.
Those that want to lose in very pretty ways. These like to die while seeing and possibly even smelling every drop of blood spilled. These prefer obstacles like fog to obscure their vision and often assume they can hide in such things while playing against a more savvy opponent from #1 above. These also prefer the latencies of "cordless" items and performance lags of WiFi in order to reduce "clutter"... again, all while bleeding is very pretty ways.
I suppose there could be a 3rd type that spends over $1000 on their gaming setup and then realizes that they need to "simplify" everything so that they can "win"... perhaps "foolish" is the best way to describe these.
Road damage from vehicles is entirely dictated by tire pressure... Tractor trailers are another matter with tire pressures often at 90psi.
Racing bicycles often use a tire pressure over 100psi. Since road damage is entirely dictated by tire pressure, they are clearly the worst... or maybe you don't know what you're talking about.
Finally some sanity. Let's tax bicycles to get extra revenue!!
What makes "Java" or anything object oriented difficult to read is that objects tend to produce more spaghetti code and have a ton of easily overlooked side effects. Debugging can be a nightmare. I see more "pitch till you win" code maintainers.... so much so, that some consider it normal to just keep trying stuff until it "works".
I'm not saying you can't create "good" object oriented code.... I just haven't seen any yet.
I'd argue it's always faster to do things in memory. In the case presented here they were *not*. In both cases being compared they were writing to disk. All they did was determine the better way (for their case) to write to disk.
Intuit drops schedules C, D and E from TurboTax Deluxe (also removes support for partnerships and K1 handling)... just about as good of news as Microsoft getting rid of Windows 7. I guess I'm a poor business manager..... I don't think I would have made those decisions.
We could put all the spent rods into new cars! Talk about building excitement!.... or we could do what the Russians do and sink them all to the bottom of the oceans. Stupid oceans... wasted space...
True $140K is not poverty... it's slap dab in the middle of the average middle class for households according to President Obama. And this is slashdot, so you can't argue with that since it has to be true.
Uh.. hate to break it to you but no... Blu-ray does not have the success that it was supposed to have. In fact, the thing that has taken off is sub-par supposedly HD streaming content... which often times looks worse than DVD.
Sony paid a whole lot of bribery money and arguably lost (again).

Hopefully that shows that Blu-ray is hardly a "win"... in fact, it's sort of pathetic... especially if consider the saturation of DVD content and (illegal) the accessibility of such content vs. HD and Blu-ray. That is to say, DVD is doing quite well when arguably it shouldn't be doing well at all.
Does it show DVD decline? Yes. Does it show Blu-ray rise? Yes... but doesn't look pretty for Blu-ray. Sony tried to buy their way technology wise this time (after the betamax debacle)... how well is Sony doing nowadays? I find that interesting...
After I just got done buying enough Blu-ray equipment to transfer over all of my Betamax vids... sheesh! I thought for sure that Blu-ray would win after Sony paid everyone off. Maybe if they paid the consumer to buy Blu-ray?
Dear Sony,
Please send me $50K USD every year for the next 10 years and I'll consider buying some Blu-ray material.

Who cares... does it blend? Waiting...
The oil and gas industry are merely trying to relieve "earth tension". The planet Earth is tense... and needs a good massage. We'll thank them later.
Why not the "drone mole". Instead of flying, it tunnels. Like a Horta
Oh.. and can I have my city opt out?
Come on folks. Please verify your Wikipedia finds with something reliable. I use Reddit!

Things have slowed down as replicating Iran's nuclear facilities also replicated Stuxnet....
Suddenly a bunch of SSD drives of all types and manufacturers have shown up on ebay. Coincidence? I think not.
That's Flacco not Franco... listen to the POTUS!

ComTimeWarnCaster is reporting nearly double the amount of subscriber loss than they had a year ago.

As long as it's not called VistaMe ... all will probably be ok.

There's a remix version available through kGraft. Remix without rebooting.

Yippee!! Free SSD!!
Anyone wanna bet that the USA will never allow their citizens to create backup copies of their DVDs? Land of Freedo.... never mind...
