    because cockpits have magic LCD screens that are totally different from LCD screens mere commoners use

  2. order of magnitude hilarty, 7 out of 123 on Building a Honeypot To Observe Shellshock Attacks In the Real World · · Score: 0

    my domains that have been around for 15 years get hundreds of attacks a day, over a dozen bash vulnerability probe attackers per day in the last week.

  3. Re:Ford on Boeing Told To Replace Cockpit Screens Affected By Wi-Fi · · Score: 0

    I was just saying Pinto issue was known provable problem, whereas I'm very skeptical of claim of wifi effects on LCD screen system. We all are in a position to observe such a phenomenon if it existed, but who has ever seen such a thing? Haven't seen my cell phone affect any LCD display system either

  4. Re:Why governments hate this so much on The $1,200 DIY Gunsmithing Machine · · Score: 1, Insightful

    Crazy bullet-ridden land? A couple inner city subcultures doing most of the bullet-riddling, meanwhile there are bigger nice areas where the per capita gun ownership rate is high but there is no gun crime

    No, even in Fords internal tests 8 out of 11 rear end collision crash tests at 31 MPH with Pinto resulted in gas tank rupture and fuel dumping out.

    third world doing better and better because of that tech. Third world countries are making your goods, and despite the all the problems that brings in the end they are better off for it. Big corporations may be evil, but they want to expand worker and customer base. That grows an economy.

  10. you're right, that's way too much computer for typical simple embeded app. a four bit S1C60 should be more than enough in most cases

  11. Re: feminists controll the law! on CEO of Spyware Maker Arrested For Enabling Stalkers · · Score: 1

    No logical fallacy if I am making statement from personal experience about female stalking those I know; you could argue whether it is a lie or true.

    The "blanket pass" is tendency I observe in US culture.

    yeah four years ago had client who was miffed I didn't know which disk he should order for his HP3000 (that's right runs MPE operating system) off the top of my head.

    Then I pulled up 1,200 HP disk SKUs and said, you know they sell just a few different disks.

    Wrong, no big profits in commodity crap, x86 servers have been a problem in IBM financials.

    the only three cases of stalking of friends and family I know of were of psycho-bitches stalking men. But you think anyone with a cunt between their legs gets a blanket pass, eh?

    False, consult a standard grammar book of English and you will find trailing prepositions are incorrect.

    You are confused, the architecture of google is utterly useless for most businesses cases, it does not and can not provide accurate answers to queries.

    hahaha

    so you've never worked on serious computer systems? The mainframe and vms clusters I've used had databases working for years (over a decade in one case as new hardware joined sequentially to cluster as old retired).

    failures very occasional, to say the least

    even where I am now the main database is oracle on virtualized linux servers, it's been up for 3+ years

    Not everything is apache server hooking to single mysql instance....

  20. Re:Black holes can exist without a singularity on Physicist Claims Black Holes Mathematically Don't Exist · · Score: 1

    there are various models preventing singularities, like loop quantum gravity, but they all have huge problems

  21. Re:Black holes can exist without a singularity on Physicist Claims Black Holes Mathematically Don't Exist · · Score: 1

    If things happen *inside* a black hole to dissipate energy of collapse, I've not heard of a mechanism yet, never heard of a Hawking radiation there. Supposedly everything formed there has to go into the singularity, even any spontaneous pairs created.

    Now there are theories of other quantum effects that might keep singularity from forming, but quantum gravity models have a huge problem in that they are not "normalizable", the probability distributions can't be set to something meaningful and useful to describe what measured properties of particle would be.

    I have a couple dozen friends into Linux, none of them use GNOME3 and all think it's garbage. MATE, XFCE4, Cinnamon and some KDE lovers yes....no GNOMERZ
