People on a budget, especially hobbyists, want to run free software. Much free software, like SPICE and most GIMP plugins, is single-threaded. Waiting 20 minutes for a SPICE run to complete, then changing a component 10% and running again - and again - and again - is no fun. The same goes for a blind deconvolution filter for GIMP, where a single repetition can be several hours.
That these programs could and should be made parallel or multi-threaded is irrelevant; and paying several thousand dollars for a commercial multi-threaded program is out of the question. For me, a single-thread CPU executing 10 billion instructions per second would be much faster than a 32 core machine with each core capable of executing 5 billion instructions per second.
I'm using two 1920x1080s in an over-under configuration. As long as I don't need a display uninterrupted from top to bottom, it fills my needs for lots of pixels. No need to deal with the problems of CRTs: heat, weight, aging, and distortions.
less dependent on reading as the primary teaching method.
No. The written word is explicit. Spoken words are subject to being misunderstood as other words. Instructional videos are fine, but not always applicable. Sometimes videos are easier to make than written descriptions, sometimes much more difficult. What other methods are there - pictograms?
Most high level learning must be done primarily with words, including symbols and numbers.
Any war that does not end quickly requires that the eventual winner has a strong economy. No matter how many jets, missiles, and cannons you have, if you can't fuel them and provide ammunition, you can't continue fighting a war.
The Middle East, Israel excepted, is a "resourceless dump of poverty" because of the people and their self-destructive beliefs. Israel, like Hong Kong, is essentially resourceless and has become relatively rich through intelligent human action.
In the long term, renewables have to be cheaper, for the simple reason that the supply of expendables, though enormous, will eventually be so depleted that they'll be very expensive to unearth. Whether it's 3 years or 1000 years, the principle stands.
There are 2 types of people who, like you, preach universal poverty. One type is trying to fool everyone else into being poor, thinking that will make them rich. The other type, the thoroughly evil ones, really do want everybody to be poor.
TSA cannot confirm or deny the results of internal tests.
They cannot. This can mean only two possibilities.
---They're colossally incompetent. They don't know the results of their own tests, or they haven't the ability to speak the appropriate words.
---They're lying. They actually won't tell, not cannot tell.

If you're in a bad neighborhood, you should not have all your money in your wallet, nor all your money in the same pocket.
$200,000 invested in the NASDAQ at the market lows in 2009 would be over $800,000 now.

Because that is how you think people must be, you are condemning yourself.
Your quest for a solution in this context is misguided, and your implication that ShanghaiBill wants blacks to be mistreated is vile.
It is in nobody's best interest to deny reality.
Mom's been dead for 40 years. You're one sick puppy.
The important thing is to land the rocks properly, so that the earth gains angular momentum about its axis.

Paul Ehrlich ... not alarmist
Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha.
How is this about race? These were white and non-white mice.
A reason has been found. Coffee contains antioxidants - assuming it hasn't been kept at scalding temperatures for several hours. Here is one general citation from among hundreds. http://www.lifeextension.com/Magazine/2012/1/Discovering-Coffees-Unique-Health-Benefits/Page-01
According to wikipedia, both Ann Wilson and Nancy Wilson ( Heart ) are still alive.
So all this gravitational lensing claimed to agree with general relativity is a fraud?
The Republic of Texas (now defunct) had presidents that served for 2 or 3 years. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Republic_of_Texas
You need to hook up the politicians to the output of the wind turbines.

They don't realize it because it's not true. Slavery exists; it's not the free market.

The recently retired police chief in my small town had 5 college degrees. How many do you have, stupid?
You are deliberately making a dishonest implication. The median pay of a police patrol officer is $53,229.
