Yeah, sure, on a test track in controlled conditions if you go 70mph and push the brakes hard your car might stop dead even with WOT. (and accessorily your name is 'Stig' 'Clarkson', 'May' or... 'Hamster')
But on the highway, stuck with WOT, you don't think 'Iwant to stop dead NOW' which might kill you as efficiently as speeding. (remember that little line in the rule book aboot minimum speed limit). Your car not beeing on fire, most people think 'i need to slow down a bit' and brake a little, then more, then the brake heats up, progressively losing braking power. Then... they don't brake anymore.
I'm sure your limited window of thinking make you a prime candidate to work for a Toyota engineering team. But you and they fail to realise that preparing for hardware failure is useless if you don't work first on the psychology behind human reaction to crisis.
As someone still using his 1999 Powermac G4... I agree... No failure of anything. And in 10 years it was off only for the 2 month needed to ship it from europ to japan when I moved.
Sure I upgraded the HD, the old one is now external in a USB box. I put more ram and a proc upgrade card. All the old parts are still working and stored somewhere. I would not even expect this life expectancy from a car.
I was feeling alone in the intarweb surrounded on nearly every website buy Naboleon or Calritard supporters.
On a side note this retard actually in the Elysee is pushing for a second time a law that as been considered against the constitution. Isn't that a felony ?
Agreed... SYBA is one of those shittiest brand around for no good reason. Their are notorious for design flaw... like basic design flaws. Last time I tried to use their fire wire pci car for networking the result was just pop and smoke, on 3 different cards. Seems they got the power feature design of the firewire bus wrong. Luckily it only fired their cards. Not the MB.
Do they really use stuff like this for pro installation ?
Isn't that the kind of thinking/stats that kept the flawed Ford Pinto or the road despite being a time ticking bomb ?
It's not aboot the percentage of person killed versus teh number of white Jaguar on the road every tuesday. It's aboot doing something totally unecessary while operating a vehicle. By your thinking, since i've never been in an accident I should not have to wear a seatbelt. Or since my car never burned I should not worry aboot carrying a fire extinguisher...
Jet fuel is nearly the same as heating fuel. (depend on the jet...) And I like this smell of flight deck in winter when I turn the heater on... Heating fuel is the same as diesel fuel. (You can run your heater or your old benz) So yeah... jet fuel is not diesel... but it's damn close enough to be used as an emergency fuel in military helo even if the MTBF free fall make it a costly measure (somebody will have to quote tom clancy for me on this one)
To be honest "The pathetic thing about mr Doctorow's " is that people still listen to him. Once again... This guy is the Paris Hilton of the open source. He was famous for some reason nobody remembers (at least I'm sure it was not a sex tape). And now still believe he have something useful and important to tell to the world. It's the same level of pest as Guy Kawasaki.
On a side note... Linux -have- solutionS to most of it's problems. Windows... have... only one solution to everything: a reinstall... and it get old pretty fast.
Reacting to your environment is called "not being an autist".
Your like conspiracy theorists in final stage. Stuff happen, it's the men in black. Stuff doesn't happen, the men in black prevented it. Stuff happen but is corrected, it's the men in black that want us to believe everything is fine. It's raining, the men in black want us wet.
This guy publicly said and on TV "Go fr@ck yourself dumb@ss" (casse toi pauvre con) to an old guy in an agricultural show who just didn't want to shake his hand. And you are uncomfortable with my post or "Political views are sided but ought to be more polite." Man up sissy boy. There was some wrongs with Chirac, but much more good. Sarko is all bad. The reform of university and hospital are bad jokes, Hadopi is every nazy regime wet dream. This guy will go down on history as the worst failure of the 5th republic.
Doctorow is somekind of Paris Hilton for the geeks.
He had his 15 minutes of fame. And now you continue to see him babling around like if he was to be listened like a wyse oracle of some kind.
He should do like the real one, stick to infrared war-in-the-gulf style porn tapes, product launch for crappy perfumes or the new equally crappy Audi of the week.
Parent is not flamebait. Parent is unfortunately spot on.
This president is a shame for France and an embarassment... FOR MANKIND... It's an half drunk idiot with the IQ of a toiletbowl broomstick.
He played the "small people" card during the campain and now play with all the vulgarity of a new rich the "people" card. The incarnation of the 3B Booze Babes Backchich. He's tightening the immigration law to a point where his parents (who are not French) would not have been allowed to stay. Promoting family value as much as family members. Have an ill informed opinion on everything. The posterchild of the "if i'm here that must be because I'm good for the job". Now ALL the previous governement are remember with nostalgia. This dwarf should not even be a janitor as he might find way to abuse the little power he got on the toilet paper stockpile.
Maybe the problem lies in the fact that AI are programmed just to be opponents. While they should be conceived as game masters in charge 'also' of managing the opponent team but with consideration of the overall gameplay.
Yeah maybe... I'm a car nut. But i'm also practical and my budget only allow me a "car as a tool" kind of car. So the only 3 things I can tell about it is: -it start all the time -it's blue -It fits all my stuff without drama
But while I can state by head all the revision of the engine available for an Alpine 310 V6. I don't even know the capacity or the power output of mine. Just that it really don't use a lot. (also, that "parking brake instead of a clutch pedal" thing is utter stupidity)

Repeating this will not make it true -in context-

It would be considered totally retarded... But as usual the 'japan' aura hide the fact that it's nothing more than manual rasterisation...
Yes you can use human to do machine (computer) work... is it always smart/usefull/entertaining in a non masochist way ? not often...
Next up on 'news from japan' two new devices who, when combined can perfectly replace your printer:
pen and paper...
And also spend a day or two in Paris. It's a quick and cheap ride.

Crosscheck for planes with a/p in controlled areas can be up to 10 minutes...
That means you can schtoup teh waitress and wash your hands without taking any kind of risks.
Best, usually if you start screwing with the plane attitude, the best way to recover it is to let the control go.
Even at slow speed in my parking, more than 10 second without my hands on the steering wheel would result in a fender bender.
Can't compare both. Flying is just too different/much safer.

Seconded...
First you do like Doctorow... then Paris Hilton... and after... who know how low you will go...
This parody of a law Still have to make it in front of constitutionnal council.
Naboleon Sarkozy is playing a "W Bush" card... constitution... that's just a piece of paper...
I wonder why politician who purposefully push -illegal- laws don't end up in jail...
French reporting here...
We do let the dead vote...
Check for Tibery's election as mayor of the 5th quarter of Paris...
The electors list was nearly a remake of night of the living dead.
Out of mod point... damn...

How much would you pay to read comments on digg...
Please comebody shoot me...
It's will be even safer as I'm ready to bet they wont be silent underwater and trying to avoid detection. But more floating with light and beacons.
Nope, in France since we have Sarkozy, it's all year long...

oups sorry... wrong site...

For god's sake, somebody tell Doctorow his 15 minutes of irrelevant emo fame are over.
