Given the fastest supercomputer today runs at over 1PFLOPS, it's quite silly to claim that something a thousand times slower is a supercomputer.
Not at all. number 500 on the top 500 list is only about 17 times faster than the peak performance on this box, so you could take 40 of them and wire them to a gig switch and have a hope in hell of being in the top 500.
I'm thinking of starting my own business, and I would love to pay less in taxes
But you still want good roads and schools, right? If you want to have your tax locus in nevada, then move there. There are plenty of startups in seattle, so we don't need vultures like you skipping out on their obligations.
An asprin a day has nothing to do with headaches and such. Asprin (typically an 81mg daily dose) is a cheap and effective mild blood thinner with relatively minimal side effects and has been studied extensively for decades.
Mild effects? Sure, unless you take too many, or take Vicodin or have liver/kidney problems. Then it can kill you dead.
If you're big enough, you can run in N+1 capacity - lose a DC and your servers get hotter. Even a scaled version of the site somewhere else can keep you limping for a bit. Depends on what exactly you're doing, as with everything.
hoo boy, just wait til Zimbabwe wants to borrow the car...
Seriously, that's crap - what developing nations need is stable government that isn't murderous, the rule of law, and access to clean water, education, etc. Broadband is fairly low on the list.
Is it really immoral if you're trying to pin someone down for harm done to society? (The potential for abuse is high which is why it's illegal, but illegal doesn't automatically mean immoral.)
Yes. The rules are in place to ensure an adequate defense. The whole idea that the ends justify the means is corrosive to a free society.
Look at Barak Obama. I've yet to see him significantly and fundamentally reform government, or otherwise to make either the USA or the world a better place. Yet, look at the devotion.
It's Barack, and this isn't devotion, it's people actually liking him. If you want devotion, look at the tards naming every damn thing they can find after Reagan.
As far as braking and accel goes, i'd imagine the stick is pull back for accel and push forward for braking. At least I hope. This way overbraking due to decel will be the issue, which tech like ABS should help with. Which is better, in theory then underbraking.
And the panic response is to yank the thing in the direction you want to go. Hmm, problem...
of course, the computer doesn't know why you're turning so hard, so maybe you're screwed anyway. IME, the big problems with sharp turns are: going too fast and then trying to brake and turn at the same time (sorry, try again) and the panic-brake before you do anything else. Every driver should take a basic skills course (stops, slalom, skidpad) every few years at least.
Are you mad? If you want to host email and http, get a coloed box or some managed hosting. Way cheaper than the telco's plan and more reliable too. Also, you won't have to deal with crappy bandwidth.

how much ram nasa had during apollo.
Think C64 levels. Apollo was done largely with calculators and butcher paper.

Then we have the 1400 Watt toaster ovens, and 1500 Watt space heaters.
In the US, standard circuits are 15A@110V, so that 1500W space heater + anything else = tripped circuit.
Consumer reports - what do they know about computer stuff?
the fun part is when they let the pst grow to 1G or so and the file corrupts itself.

In this case, the big problems make the small ones irrelevant - who cares about your download speed when your water supply is tainted?

Dude, it's college - you should be able to find a horny girl without much trouble.
apparently it does - someone upthread mentioned that the 3 year hell's angels case was tossed because of this.
It'd be immoral and illegal
Is it really immoral if you're trying to pin someone down for harm done to society? (The potential for abuse is high which is why it's illegal, but illegal doesn't automatically mean immoral.)
Yes. The rules are in place to ensure an adequate defense. The whole idea that the ends justify the means is corrosive to a free society.
Even under strict GPL, HTC is ONLY required to release the source to people who have actually bought the phone. When exactly did the Hero go on sale?
As I recall, they're required to either ship with source or release the code to all who ask for it.

Which is only actually useful if you are racing. Are we talking about racing or street legal driving?
If I didn't like racing, I'd be driving a celica. Just so happens my race car is a DD also.
MR-S is a wonderful car that is cursed by a lack of aftermarket support. Shame, too - you can dial one up to about 250BHP before you need to add aero.

or maybe they, like so many others, screwed up a version number check.

Good luck with that - it'll cack from the heat in 6 months. Get a rack server in someone else's datacenter if you need density.
better, use sftp - whether to allow authorized_keys style auth is up to you.
indeed
And you can't show me where it's forbidden.
