Take whatever CPU you want, add the north bridge power drain, then compare it to the Atom plus its gigantic CPU of a north bridge. I will not spoil the results for you.:)
Yeah. I will only code my software in dialects of Basic and Assembler. And the streets shall be made of gravel with mud underneath. As long as you can drive on it... Let's build out cars out of plastic and glue. As long as it drives... And let's build our houses out of wood and plaster.... Oh wait...
Interesting that you say that about the Atom. The biggest fraud in things of energy usage, that I can remember. Have you ever looked at an Atom mainboard? The big cooled thing is not the CPU. It is the freaking north bridge.
They just put as much of the CPU inside the NB, so it looks like it uses less power. In fact, if you add the NB, you still get a higher wattage than any low-power system on the market.
Then don't install binaries on your system! I could have not a single piece of non-self-compiled software on my system, if it weren't for those nVidia drivers (the only way to get recent 3D effects on Linux).
Oh, and you all are idiots if you think, Google "puts it in the license, just to be sure". I don't know who said it, but whenever someone tells you something like this, they are going to use it as early as often as they can. Google is an exception for not already doing it. But the time will come. And I dare everyone to lay down $100 in gold*, and say it won't happen ever! Just wait until they notice a profit to be made.
(*Because the paper money equivalent will be worthless by then, even if it is in 5 years.)
I'd say in fact, especially for us people who like tinkering and tuning complex machines, getting our body to run perfectly should be a pretty easy and fun thing to do. The them "species-appropriate" is the key word. What is the perfect food for our machine called body? How do you maintain it? How does the brain work?
If you look that stuff up, it all becomes so totally obvious. And much simpler to implement.
About the last factor: What you mean is the placebo effect. There were experiments, where people became real swellings, from imagining a bee sting alone. This is still some mechanism that is not fully understood. But I think we can control more of our body trough our mind, than we think. Even optimize our healing.
I do know this. The skin is so massively successful in protecting the body, that scientists hat extreme problems getting any medicamentation to get trough it. For virii it's the same thing. But you can destroy your protection by other means than cutting yourself. Some stuff destroys protective layers/cells. Some stuff opens pores for everything to get in.
Hey, "A Scanner Darkly" was not painful to watch. Not for anyone except you. ^^ I have seen it with many people, and most of them liked it. Some of them did find it a bit slow/boring. But nobody found it to be painful.
So if you always presume you are talking just about your views, then I apologize. But if not, please stop stop assuming everybody has your point of view.:) Thank you.:)
do you know how many percent of the cells in our body are actually bacteria? without that bacteria, you would: - get infected with every crap bacteria you touch (your whole skin is coated in good bacteria, to keep the bad away) - not be able to digest your food (your intestines are full of them, doing good work for you) - and even change your way of thinking (because bacteria interact with the communication of neurons. complicated stuff. can't find the article now.)
you wouldn't even be able to survive without them!
So you better care for your bacterial friends, or other not no nice forms may soon replace them.:)
Who profited from this the most? Even if it has nothing to do with a leaked movie.
There, all base for your reasoning is gone. This is all just a giant theater. Psychology. Simple, but effective. I think it is another step to a 1984 type "society".
Do not think they are stupid. They know exactly what they doing. Maybe not the grunt who was raiding. But the guy behind the big desk for sure.
Sorry, but we already have faster-than-light communication trough quantum entanglement. The change in state happens instantly, without any delay, no matter what the distance is.
Of course in praxis, you would first have to fly a large mass of entangled matter to the other place at sub-light speed. But when it's there, you could communicate at FTL speeds, until the matter is used up.
I think with moving matter, you are basically correct. But even thermodynamics is just a theory of how things work. It can always happen that we find an exception to it. Pretty much all our scientific knowledge got refined more and more over the time, showing us how there are exceptions here and there (eg. superconductivity). So it may be pretty unlikely, that searching for FTL drives will bring some results. But it is not per-se wrong or impossible. Special relativity just has to hat so be a little tiny bit wrong.
Please stop acting as if theories were absolute unchangable laws. They may look, or be very close to that, but they never are exactly that. (So I agree with you for 99.99999%. But not 100%! And say that there is a very important difference there.: )
My last boss was the one sharing the porn. With pics like tree girls laying on each other, showing their pussies, and the caption of a stack of work to work off only being the very top of the iceberg.
Yeah. Let's try that with your nails too. Just rip them off. And your balls too. Nice isn't it? Your long and enduring pain is so worth my little convenience of being a total pussy about cat scratches and the toootal stress of letting your cat out to find love.

I fell into the classical trap for germans:
"bekommen" = getting
"werden" = become
"bekommen" != become
I am embarassed. ;)

Hmm... I recommend invading the biggest nuclear power with the largest history of crazy actions first.
Oh wait... ^^
You are right. I did not count it, because I did not count the hardware. (Which I should have counted.)
On the other hand, modding me troll is just trollish for "I disagree and am too stupid to accept dissonance" all in itself.
Yeah. ...
I will only code my software in dialects of Basic and Assembler.

Oh wait...
hum...
OH *WAIT*!
Wikie and the Vikings all over again?
Well, then let's be Wikie, shall we?
There is a whole movie about it. It's called "Bubble Boy". (Not a great movie by the way, but your last paragraph is what it ends with.)

This also was my point.

Thank you.
So that is where the term "EPIC FAIL" comes from...
Ask Franz Embacher and his team from the university of Vienna. They do exactly what I described and transferred information over half the city. I think he can control which number shows up.
do you know how many percent of the cells in our body are actually bacteria?
without that bacteria, you would:
- get infected with every crap bacteria you touch (your whole skin is coated in good bacteria, to keep the bad away)

You write much, but get little. Sorry.

Have they never heard of DOM browsers? Or Greasemonkey? Both do not care for the source files, and directly use the document parse tree. Idiots. ^^
Let's see what you will say *after* you are bound to their contract...
... letting wind turbines take out all the excess power out of all the hurricanes haunting florida? You know, so they never reach the land.
Wouldn't that be a win-win?

(Americans, please don't be too offended, we're all grown-ups and sexual topics should not be a taboo, Ok :)
They think their dick shrinks, when in fact their body fat just grows.
Sadly, I know this from my own experience. I lost 4 cm when I was 115 kg.
So the best secret for the additional inch (and for many many other problems): Lose weight. :)
Yeah. Let's try that with your nails too. Just rip them off. And your balls too.
Nice isn't it? Your long and enduring pain is so worth my little convenience of being a total pussy about cat scratches and the toootal stress of letting your cat out to find love.
You call that cute?
When was the last time you saw a girl?
Ok, girls in Germany are generally pretty cute, so maybe I'm just a lucky lucky bastard. ;)
Still, I think that video of yours is pretty lame.
So it's CATS all the way down! I KNEW it!
