Because if it _had_, your solar system wouldnt be stable...
The "bending" the greatparent speaks of is nothing mor than the normal workings of gravity... it wont be _any_ different from a star with a black hole from a ly away. Only closer than a stars radius it will be prominent, because of the singular nature of a black hole. Outside nothing will change.
The only way we can hope to detect those "bendings" are when stuff _really_ gets hot, i.e. creation of black holes. The gravity waves should momentarily be strong enough to be detectable even very far away (if one has EXTREMELY precise instruments)
>> What I mean by better, is that you can specify whatever functionality you want.
Yeah right. I can select whatever i want, and get a kernal panic or simply nothing when actually trying to resatart... But yeah, i can enter 35 options into a config file, thats rulez.
The world is not the US, and in other countries, textbooks arent rediciously overpriced... (i know it for fact from physics, where the most expensive book i bought was the Tipler (which was about 90$ equivalent, for 1200 pages in Din A4). Most textbooks are between 50-70Euro.
You can print a 300 page textbook for 10pounds without any problem, too (if you dont need fancy printing quality..). And that would give 10 books per student and year that will still be there the year after...
1.Dont use bastard childs like TkW 2.Power =! Work. So its Watt. Not Watt/s. or anything. WATT. So the Power rating wont change if you make it shorter. 3. Scientific notation, growing out of your ass: 5.61161e-12 TkW you write... well, thats just 5.61kW... maybe you mean something different?! and 2.36e-12 Trillion Volts... well, thats 2 AA cells, definitively archivable;)
yeah, there IS a master atomic clock (or more like a cluster, with each clock weighted differently). (also note that this ends 61, about the time atomic clocks became usable)
Oh, its all a matter of perspective... Sure, its bigger as we see the moon (how much is basic math;) ), but 2 or 3 degrees is tiny in the whole black sky.
Well, considering people paid >10 Million for just getting into low earth orbit, 100 million for going all the way to the moon (including seeing earth as a tiny sphere in the disctance) doesnt seem _that_ out of place...
I would buy it in an instant... But what the summary should ask: Do you want to spend 500$ for the SSD-Card plus 4*1GB Dimms... and then the answer would be a clear no (thats more than a decent budget computer in total, and i would rather put the Dimms into my motherboard than into the card (if i feel the need, i can create a ramdisk at any point later, anyway, and with 6GByte/s and 100ns , not 140MByte/s and 100us like this one)
HDs have never been more silent than today, the cd-x-factor race has long been over and after the turbo 60mm fans of the thunderbird/willamette generaton cpu fans also became more and more silent.
In a typical new system, the PSU fan is the loudest noise creator (if it doesnt use a high end gfx-card)
Come on, what are you smoking? You expect the single biggest HD available on the world to be a cheap consumer drive right after the start?
And forget your annoyance of "bandwith". Its simply a sata 3G interface. the IC costs 2$ and is needed anyway... why save 50$ and cripple the market position?
If you want to get cheap drives, get some 250GB. Those are 100$ now, so you can get 500GB for less than 250$.
But if you want the latest tech, you should expect to pay extra (and there is no point whining about it)
so guess what 4 of those drives will have as througput... And btw: you raid royally sucks ass. 4Raptors should be at least 150MB sustained at the beginning... But let me guess: shitty software raid on a pci attached SATA controller, but trolling (er, i mean bragging) aorund with the specs of you l33t shitmachine.
than you simply dont know how silent good hardrives are (hint: non of those you mentioned are quite by any means). One Hitachi is louder than my 4 samsung Raid together.

Well, those blocks are supposed to hide stuff on the top of those buildings, like AA sites.
who hates the fucking "podcasting" name?
Its shitty audio streaming, not something one would expect to hear during some voyager technobabble.

Nah, it wouldnt.
Read up to how solar cells work.
Your right on the hydrolyis part, though.
that intels chipset fab are at their limit and they are simply dropping their lowest margin products?
(its even in the article)
You forgot:
We also never had a ship more than half a week of traveltime away from earth.
Food managment and psychologial stability becomes a MAJOR problem if we are talkin in years of traveltime.
Do you use outdated units because higher numbers sound more dangerous?

Try using the right km/miles conversion, and think about mountains at _both_ ends of the line-of sight, and it becomes more more realistic...

Well, thats the ice lake in question...
And for missions that need year(s) to actually get there, a week or two doesnt make it old

Yeah right. :)
That was also the first thing i thought about after reading the deadline

well, excuse me, but actually, everybody showing the performance of his raid via str is a moron. Like you.
Want to impress me? Then tell me the effective latency, or how many random IOs per second.
But i guess STR is a better eDick, because its such a nice number thats soooo usefull.
(i wonder why you dont have a 3dmark score in your sig, would just fit your type)
