Years and years of data showed processors would keep doubling in performance every 18 months - years and years of data showed the same for harddrives.
x86 was all the rage, current trends points at ARM with Intel and AMD being out of the game if they don't keep up.
Apple should be scared shitless, yes they have a force and a brand that ensures some sales, but more and more people switch to Android; the choices there are just much wider and Apple isn't so much of a fashion statement any more.
Would be nice if you commented so you could actually respond to later enquiries, what I wrote is being explained in the few first paragraphs of the linked RFC, so my question (which sadly will never be answered) what is your point?
.com is not the domain you are looking for..com means commercial, the US domain is.us. (Central registrar might be in the US right now, but.com TLD does by no means belong to USA).
Really? One of the Danish shipping companies (Maersk I believe) recently started having armed guards aboard their ships; guess we are building our own little pirate fleet?
Actually stepping on board and finding weapons does not make it a pirate ship; they actually need to wait around for the vessel to do something hostile before it can be called a pirate ship.
It is kinda funny to see then Muslims use it when they go into war. Since Muslims always loose unless they fight each other (which is another kind of loosing), obviously the loosing is the will of god. Notice how the phrase "if Allah wants it" is rarely used AFTER the lost battle.
"The Muslims" (I don't like the generalization) have only started losing battles in recent times. Back in the good old days of Christian crusades they kicked some mighty ass - to the point of kicking out everyone else from the holy land.
No it won't. Thats the whole point of the discussion and the ruling. If you are seriously dehydrated and you chuck down a bunch of tap water (or bottled) you will die from dehydration.
What you need to be drinking is a solution of 1l. water with 3g. salt and 18g. sugar.
"looked suspicious" or their machines needed training?
Just after the iPad 2 came out we where on a business trip to Croatia and a colleague had one with him, they gave his iPad 2 a few more scans to teach the machine how to recognice the iPad. (At least what they told us, might be some weird electronic fetish)
Why would you respond to some very specific questions asked for the GP, where you pull information out of thin air?
I don't care about how you imagine they do the stuff, especially since your scheme doesn't cover GPs claims of being able to pull any backup from years past. What I want to know is how he deals with it, since by my understanding of his claims, it's BS.
Good luck getting the pointy haired or sales to do checkins of documents. If it aint automatic, it aint happening.
On a side note, if you are not mirroring your data you are not following Oracle dictum "Mirror and stripe everything". Although these days, people would probably choose raid 60 over 10, but that depends on your budget (for your log file(s)). It's not about being paranoid, it's about maximum performance with highest number of allowable lost drives, you really don't want to lose your database log.
That doesn't make sense, if you are using a new drive each day, how does the friday wipe come into play? Where do you store your thousands of drives? And how the hell do you manage to pick up drives for $5?
If you are not using a new drive each day, how do you recall a backup from a year past when a drive is wiped every friday?
Having on call is fairly standard and should be ok as long as there are shifts for it and you are paid for the standby hours and for taking the calls.
Regarding the problems with the significant other - either find a job he/she accepts or perahps a new partner; if your partner can't accept the fact that you have to do it to keep a job, your relationship probably has other issues.
I'll bet you any amount that the google car would be unable to do what that robot does; doesn't that make the google robot laughable primitive at farming?
For quite some time Radeon was actually quite stable and useful under linux, but after some kernel changes and a decision not to update old drivers from ATI, I can no longer use "latest and greatest" linux.
Windows on the other hand, works just fine.
Also, a lot of windows tools are vastly superior to the Linux alternatives, for instance IntelliJ vs. Eclipse. (Yes intelliJ costs money, but compared to the hassle of Eclipse you are saving money in the long run).
Gaming under WINE still lacks as far as I can tell, I know some of my friends manage to play EVE under WINE, but they often complain about problems; in windows, it just works [tm].

I've never encountered a system using voice recognition, what's wrong with using digits?
For x press 1, for y press 2 etc.

A broken pipe pouring out water for a full day will still ruin your day.
What about them?

Show me medicinal qualities from bamboo rivalising those of hash and you got a deal.

Why is it laughable primitive?

Heh, because I was unaware of IntelliJ being available for Linux :-)
Point taken.
Yeah, wow, so easy and obvious solution.
Oh and by the way, not everyone has the money to upgrade every 18 months.

Yes, except no. Zynga plays on addiction and there is no way anyone addicted to their games just walks away.
If you have never experienced gaming/gambling addiction you have no idea, just how hard it is to walk away from it.
How do you suppose steam charges your credit card without storing the CC?
If you have used a CC, they have it on their books and it might be compromised.
Odd, I haven't gotten a mail nor does anything in the steam client I have indicate they have had any kind of trouble.
Well at least it's not brain surgery
