With the third-party free kx project drivers, you can use GSIF and ASIO interfaces which are standard for the pro audio industry, and that way a cheap Creative card is all you need, instead of having to buy an expensive musician's card.
How about reading the fucking study? Factors like age were taken into account to make sure that the only difference with the control group was the playing of the games.
What 'excuse' are you talking about? This is a peer reviewed study, and not some interest group's propaganda. If you have a criticism of the scientific approach used to do the study, let's hear it; otherwise, shut the fuck up.
Since you seem to know your stuff, can you explain how the two cycle glow plug engines on remote controlled hobby stuff work? I never found a good description, and I always have trouble priming the damn thing properly.
The difference is not nearly as big when you consider the self-insufficiency of cities; you are simply looking at the residential and commercial allocations per person in a city, forgetting the farmland and industry which is simply moved elsewhere. When you add these back in, you'll realize the saving in space isn't nearly what it's made out to be.
This is incorrect, as it only applies to stock voltages. RAM overclocks sufficiently more if you increase voltage, and the initial limit you hit when doing that is not dielectric breakdown but thermal. Simply, you can have much higher voltage than normal if you watercool and you can overclock quite a bit more (about 15% over no fan nor watercooling). That may not seem much, but a watercooling system can survive many years of PC upgrades, so the investment is spread out.
I've been watercooling CPU/GPU/Northbridge/HDD for a year with tap water and a heater core from the junkyard as radiator. The water is still clear without replacement (adding a cup every couple of months to make up for small evaporation loss), and whatever conductivity there is it's not an issue. There's no corrosion since I didn't mix copper and aluminum; any metal the water touches is aluminum.
First of all, how can you see objects in the room lit, as the summary states, if you close your eyes? Second, eyelids only block about 2/3 of light. Finally, the fucking aricle says the material doesn't reflect light, but it never claims it absorbs it; actually it transmits all the light--it's a material more clear than glass. Leave it to Slashdot moderators to mod up a post that's wrong in so many ways...
Saying "Now, this lady says" for a woman is equivalent to saying "Now, this gentleman says" for a man, yet I don't see you use this courtesy title for men in your other posts. This smells to me of reverse sexism.
While your page is interesting, it needs some very serious editing if it were to present an air of professionalism and authority. Consider a statement you wrote such as "7) Children of alcoholics, such as former president Bill Clinton, often have some of the same behavioral symptoms even if they don't drink. (Abusing sexuality is a common symptom of alcoholism.)" Correlation does not imply causation. There are much more plausible causes behind Clinton's infidelity, such as being married to someone like Hillary, or having a high sex drive, etc. There is also a problem of organization and consistency--you seem to have thrown a bunch of things together in a rather haphazard way. Including things like tabloid reports and some of the more extreme conspiracy theories, among other stuff, is a sign of lack of critical thinking. You really need to rework this article, otherwise many reasonable readers will dismiss it (and I don't regard the average slashdotter as a reasonable reader), which would be a shame since there is potential.
Forgot to add that modern mp3 encoders are even better, so even more reason 192 would be sufficient. On the other hand, there are better DACs and headphones (Stax Omega 2, cheaper too at $2000), so who knows that might make smaller differences more clear, though I doubt it.
Google it. It was a test done some years ago with Sennheiser's $12,000 Orpheus headphones, and only a few in the subject group managed to make out the 192 from the CD; no one managed the 256. I would recommend you do something even better: download the free abchr utility and it will let you easily do your own blind test, so you know for your equipment and ears what the lowest bitrate is necessary for transparency.
TOSlink is terrible. Ever check the jitter specs on the common optical transmitters and receivers used in this standard? Ouch. Better stick with coax, unless you have a bad ground loop problem you can't eliminate other ways. Jitter rejection in of the digital-to-analog converters is good in equipment that uses asynchronous resampling ICs (say CS8421, AD1895, or SRC4393 from the three big manufacturers), which is not common.

I'm not familiar with this "knock off" idiom. What is it?
Uh, "fowl" is a bird; I think you meant "foul".

So? What's more credible, anecdotal reports on slashdot, or a peer-reviewed study?
Well I didn't have much choice back then--I was born there.
Move to Europe
I lived in Europe from 1980 through 1993. In retrospect, I'd rather go with the supervolcano.

I did this in collage.
And what I did in college is learn not to spell "college" as "collage".

Mod parent up! Grandparent is an idiot.

I'm surprised all I hear is chickens and cows... what about pigs? I find pork much tastier.
For crying out loud, it's "suite", not "sweet"! This is about the worst language error I've seen on Slashdot today!

That may be, but TFA is talking about "lower launch costs".
There's little correlation between IQ and being correct.
