if each core2 or atom cpu could be placed in a small USB stick for $5, then one can build the biggest usb chain with 1000s of $5 usb cpu sticks.
What we need is any easy was as easy as usb sticks to increase cpu horse power of desktops, without the need for cumversome sockets+fans+sinks. Maybe if each USb stick contained 256 x Z80 cpus, each running at 500mhz, at 500ma, then we could easily allow the freedom to grow. And if we could make multi layer cpus, ie say 100 layers of 256 cpus, that would be some advance. Perhaps we should strive for more quantity of simpler CPUs at optimum mhz speeds. The old 68k cpu was powerful even at 7mhz. Now that same design cpu can be made to run easily at low voltage and at 500mhz easily, but rather than 1, we could have 256 of them, which would be no more complex at 45nm than an atom cpu. GPU style.
Didnt the biggest pot dealer in Nepal convince the govt to make the drug illegal, so that his profits can sky rocket?
Wake up police and govt and lawyers, legalize it, make it cheap, tell the old people their opinions were used for the last 50 years, now its the young peoples turn. Thats the only way to kill the drug lords/hangs/kingpins.
Reminds me of the car company taking the brand new car out of the factory out for a test drive, with perfect odometer checked before hand. They had cruise control etc computers making sure it did not go above 100km/ph, yet they got booked by automatic cameras/speedo equipment under bridges that clocked them doing 106kph.
Tell me whats illegal and whats fraud then. The driver, or the fucking government twats that do nothing meaningful in their lives but read 800 page reports and believe in them, then sign off on them.
In my world, one stuff up like that in the speedo/camera company and out goes the contract, get lost. So the state looses 300M in revenue, who cares, the people will LOVE THE govt then.
I say send the jail the staff and lawyers every one who approved this company as indirect accomplaces. Hey turds, ignorance of the law is not an excuse as some dumbasses say.
I would love to some create a massive SQL query which can decode mpeg4 video. Yes its a wrong language for the problem, but decoding compressed video is a BIG data manipulation problem.
I guess what people are saying is that sure SQL might do its job, but it has some arcane stupid syntaxes that look like cobol. The differences between each commercial/OS vendor are large enough as to be anoying.
What people are looking for is a common language that is vendor neutral, and more modern looking. I guess kind of like OpenGL or DX10, some api/lang set that runs via a driver to the final DB solution. So the database is like a graphics card, separated from the api/language. So its easy to swap vendors.
This is the key that sucks with SQL, once you commit to one vendor, its hard to escape. Today we have OS nuetral 3d apis, window apis, network apis, sound apis. A truely layered DB api/lang that isnt locked to stone to the vendor? No chance.
1. send a 10kb file with every line being AAAAA, then BBBB, then CCCCC. 2. transmit it 10 times to different destination names. 3. are they all the same or different, and examine them by hand to see if its random missing bytes or random extra bytes. 4. verify this by using ftp/tftp/sftp.
Is slahdot turning into im too poor to hire a consultant or unemployed programmer for $25/ph?
EU/UK is subsidising the US prices because americans are soo poor. American financial people think foreigners are as dumb as americans so often like to spruce up prices. If they just dared really dared to price it right, they would see higher sales.
So yeah, if you want Win7, go to a chineese side street small retailer and get an OEM dvd thats legit and probably only $49.
Full retail box price? Only utter morons pay for that. Learn how to use google simpletons.
i thought most pages/sites served html.gz which could also compress giant.js to.js.gz
Isnt this default in setups, so a 300kb html/js could compress to 40kb
But also phone companies charge bi directionally, so, its html+headers+tcpheaders is counted both ways.
Some cell companies are now auto recompressing larger jpegs to smaller ones transparently by proxy to make peoples web experience nicer.
It would have been nice if the html protocol supported that and told the server, "send all jpegs at 50% comp" coz im slow. Then browsers can be configured for slow connections to appear faster. Specifiying 10% to 90% would be cool for the user to be able to do. Or even add a rescale by 2:1 all images coz my screen is small.
It wouldnt be hard to add that to the browser headers, and add a plugin for apache to be aware of this and peform recomp/resize once and send a cached version.
could have been worse, he could have been working on Duke Nukem Forever, or be an IT consultant for RIAA, i mean who would hire someone who worked as a consultant for the devil? really? whO!?! The Rep Party?
Property prices control everything. If rents are $2000/yr, then wages+costs are the highest component. If rents to a shop are $90000, then wages represent a smaller portion. Now for a given $19dvd, the shop might take in 30%, taxes for govt are 12-15%, rent is probably 20%, while profits are last.
If everyones rents are cheaper our need for more revenue is reduced. Thus we all win.
Whats wrong with 1 year contracts? Show me one phone that lasts 2 years also.
I see plenty of sub $100 phones that are not on a plan.
And if they want a $600 phone for $20 a month, gee, just use your CCard, whats the difference.
Phone comapnies only make plans because they want a stable revenue projection plan, else it would be wildly up and down and harder for them to plan capacity.
Slashdot Mirror
win32 itunes bugs persist, proof they dont listen, and their stupid ass errors are worse than amiga guru codes.
Thats why the prodigy album bagged the cops and they should be bagged, they are like the SS in .de.
Might as well advertise alldayparty ie all 24hr day party, or full earth rotation party.
or a 90% night party.
a good way btw to throw the dogs off, is to flood the train with water laced with pot residue.
Except there is no option to say "Delete duplicates that are older than latest copy"
Oh you must run some stupid script? On windows? Wake up apple.

Hey, is there a Maddof connection here?
Why is goggle part of this, is it possible to even pirate google software? I bet its impossible.
Stupid twits, probly joined because they were playing golf with some ceos.

Air France would deny the plane had them there and that they really are scuba diving in the Atlantic.
Watch it here and watch it again, till you email it to Riaa.

How about a 'you wouldnt risk your career working for riaa as a lawyer would you, who would hire you next?'
Those origami walls just dont cut it when its cold, but also arent much match to nuclear blasts either.
It wouldnt take much effort for CFL lights to have IR detectors and be able to see remotes setting volume up/down.
But im sure that $0.20 cost feature will end up being blown up to $10 margins so then no one will buy it.

Then they can claim it has a built in heater.
Test your products both in cold climates and 40c+ climates. btw apple, black sucks, it absorbes heat in the sun shine.

lets see , 1 motherboard + cpu & ram, and one disk (cheapest).
Not bad, just 4 items to make a PC, the power can be worked out later.
Design custom cases/racks, outsource the tool work, bingo, not hard at all, each PC could be under $150.
I pick Utter Performance, then I pick Cheap Power + Cheap Computers.
Who cares if it eats tonnes of cabon if its CHEAP, that equals profits.
Hopefully the dirty coal air and filth will send these people on their way faster.
Then us younger folk can do the right thing.

If a mans work week is valued at $900 today, that is equal to one ounce of gold.
It was the same 5000 years ago, one weeks worth would generate that income too.
Property prices control everything. If rents are $2000/yr, then wages+costs are the highest component.
If rents to a shop are $90000, then wages represent a smaller portion. Now for a given $19dvd, the shop might take in 30%, taxes for govt are 12-15%, rent is probably 20%, while profits are last.

In a dark room at night, ARGGGGGGGGGGGGG the white screen lights up the room and is
too bright and TOO CORPORATE , and NOT GEEKY.
Dude, since when is any geek/nerd site use a white background, ALL GEEKS use black backgrounds, with green text.
This is news for Rich Employed Corporate Geeks wanabee nerds. Ahahaha.
Those idiots who make blogs with 300 images 400 youtube links that are 600 pages high are idiots.
But they sure push FF to the limit.
