Yeah. Or, you know, you could put it under load and see how it behaves. You're not likely to find out any useful information if you're running the rails at idle.
I'm a dad, and I'm far more outraged that this woman's life could potentially be thrown away over a mistake than I am outraged that a few kids might have been—OMG—exposed to porn.
I've come up with a way to reduce—perhaps even eliminate—our dependence on foreign oil as an energy source.
As more and more civil liberties are trampled upon, faster and faster will the Founding Fathers spin in their respective graves.
If we attach magnets to each Founding Father, then wrap copper wire around each of them, we should have a potentially unlimited energy source. Well, at least until the Libertarians get elected in significant numbers—so yeah, come to think of it, it truly is unlimited.
The AC frequency, of course, might be unpredictable. In fact, I'd suspect it will be ever-increasing, which could create some technical issues to overcome. But we're smart people, I'm sure we can figure it out.
What do you all say? Shall we write up a grant proposal?
Who are they polling? Joe Sixpack? Why does it seem I am so consistently diametrically opposed, opinion-wise, to the "average" American?...
In a separate poll, 99.9998% (margin of error, 0.5%) of Slashdotters said the NSA has no business monitoring domestic telephone conversations in any way, "terrorism" or no.
I'll pass your suggestions on to my friend, but seeing as how he hasn't worked on the SNS project for probably four years, I don't know if it'll do much good. =)
I would think that installing filtering software (and paying an employee to occasionally monitor same) would increase universities' costs. Maybe not much, maybe a lot--who knows. But my question is, is the RIAA planning on providing any sort of incentive for universities to do this? Or is it the usual "do it or we'll sue?"
Uh, the scientists' budgets wouldn't necessarily have to pay for the electricity. I'm guessing most, if not all, of that is going to come from the taxpayer.
Still cheaper than running a war in the middle east, though.
Slashdot Mirror
Been wearing one on my hip every day for the past 4.5 years, and have noticed no problems. Anecdotal, I know. But I'm skeptical.
Carl Sagan reproduced the Miller experiment for his series "Cosmos." Check out the second episode. It's on Netflix.
Yeah. Or, you know, you could put it under load and see how it behaves. You're not likely to find out any useful information if you're running the rails at idle.
Buy a newer, but still-made-by-IBM-not-Lenovo Thinkpad off eBay?
Yeah, well, that doesn't make a whole lot of sense. Why aren't those who live in the US called UnitedStatsians? Or USians? Yooshians?
You are aware, of course, that Canada is part of North America?
That Web site reads like a Chinese fortune cookie.
...but only if the dump truck is running on WVO. The irony coup de grace.
Sadly, parents like you are the exception not the rule in this day and age.
I hope that when my boy is 12 my experiences will be similar.
Go blind, develop hairy palms, turn into basement-dwelling, Slashdot-surfing geeks with no social life ... who knows what else might happen?
I think you're confused.
I'm a dad, and I'm far more outraged that this woman's life could potentially be thrown away over a mistake than I am outraged that a few kids might have been—OMG—exposed to porn.
40 years? For this? Good lord. Aren't there any real criminals we could lock up instead? It's insane.
I'd consider even four years to be excessive for such an offense.
Dear crazy wacko:
Generally, you're advised to cover yourself with at least a veneer of anonymity and post as an AC if you're going to say something like this.
Never! It's apochryphal now!

I'd be very interested to know whether upgrading a Challenge L to R12Ks is possible, since I happen to have a Challenge L sitting in my basement.
"...R12K based Power Challenge L"
Sir, such a product does not exist. I think you must have dreamed it.
The Power label was reserved exclusively for R8000 workstations and servers, and the Challenge series never supported R12K processors.

You might want to email the current Webmaster.

Hey cool, a friend of mine designed their Web site when he was working at Los Alamos. Small world.
I'd provide a link to his Web site but I doubt he feels like getting Slashdotted.
Well, if I told you what I was hiding, then it wouldn't be a secret anymore, now would it?
