its no plasma, so it shouldnt need much more power than your CRT TV.
But one thing is to be considered: if it is as bright as a small tv, a white picture should be seriously blinding... 2 or 3000 lumen are headlight quality...
go in s supermarket that offers sd-cards, there you will find the solution: Supersize package. They put those small cards in boxes you wouldnt loose in the pacific ocean, so you could also put your nanowire in a 2kg steel case and NEVER misplace it:)
They cant tell the time scew in that resolution, because to estimate it, they would have to guess the ping time with that accuracy. And even if they have a large sample set, it would still be more like 3-5ms, and moving over time... what is shift in the backbone saturation, what is clock skew? Plus like other people said: xp has atomic clock synchronisation on per default (mine has), so im one of the 50million machines that has an clock error of 5 or 10 seconds... now 5ms accuracy would give us 2000-5000 slots, for 50million machines... not unique
Even for my internet provider (the pool of dynamic ips mine is from) it would still be secure enough, even without just faking the data
The mere fact that after the first 2 sentences i didnt know if you meant Rick Berman and Brannon Braga or the paramount executives shows that there are reason this show should stay cancelled.
It would only reenfore the producers of the show that their crap is good, and the next show will follow in the decay series that was ds9->voyager->enterprise.
The account number is part of the seed, too, IIRC. I mean, people arent complete idiots, and if you could just change the account number while keeping the pin, it would have been abused long ago.
The problem with solar cells in the infrared (i dont know the specific you have seen) is, that you get a higher quantum efficiency, meaning more photons generate an electron in the current, but your voltage is lower, so all energy of the photon above the gap energy of your semiconductor is wasted. An 2.5 eV "green" photon will lose 1.5ev in heat/phonons when exciting an electron in an 1ev semiconductor.
So solar cell design is always a tradeoff: The higher the bandgap, the more efficient the usage of the photoelectrons, but the lower the electron yield.

Well, if in a field where a lot of research is done, showing a history of small gradual improvements, one company starts claiming a factor 3 increase out of nowhere, such a comment is valid.
they have a database, no tons of little files. And the current amount should be >100GB including the old revisions, so even over gigabit it should take some time
Face it: the neck isnt made to make rapid precice movements of the head over a longer period of time. Its just does the "low frequency" components of the movement, the eyes do the rest of the work (quickly and precicly aim at spots of interest). But with them, there is the problem of involutary movement, so eye-tracking wouldnd be that great either.
Hey, here in germany we had a station that distributed mp3 radio via the teletext... but they were shut down/ceased their service after there were automatic stream->file converters that just leached all songs on rotation...
Yeah, i dont. I wasnt bothered because of the dismissal of the bad psus, but of the defence of PMPO (which really sucks bad).
I, too have an enermax. I used to hate them because my first enermax was one of those first dual fan ones with a wrongly placed thermal sensor (intants turbine sound), but the new one i really liked.
Upgraded from a 450W noname to a 365W enermax, because the noname could power 8hds, but the enermax can. But there was no lying involved. the 450W one had 330W combined power on 3&5V, and only 14 amps on the 12V rail, the enermax has over 20 on the 12V. So just different specs.
er, no. not a factor of 1000. even if it before was 0% cache hitrate and only scalar and after 100% l1 cache hitrate and 4 way simd, it would only have a speedup of about 100. (l1 latency is 2-4 clocks on different cpus, main memory around 80-150).
Believe me, i know how a nifty algotrithm can perform like crap because what was before nice block streaming in O(n^2) bcame pointer chasing in O(NlgN), but not a factor of 1000, not that way.
I know its a bit of nitpicking, but throwing around claims like "factor 1000 improvement" need a bit of backup...
could you just tell me how to include pngs? Because currently, the routine with bitmaps is: a)Print to ps. b)Convert to eps. c)manually set the bounding box correctly.
Which kinda sucks for productivity (especially the damn bounding box thats never right)
its not a lie, at least not more than pmpo. I have seen 250W pmpo speakers that ran of a 10W psu...
You could also argue that the psu has 500W: if you only need 12v, you can get 20 amps, and if you only want 5v,... , making it able to deliever 500W, just not all at once.
I would say that this isnt anymore lying than pmpo (both sucks)
Thx for the first really good post im reading here.
I remember buying a microsoft sidewinder 3d pro with a custem version of the midi-port that was a pain to be usable in windows.
I remember not being able to use more than 2 buttons with 2 joypads back in dos times.
I remember having to do shit to get a mouse running under dos, or an ipx driver. Not to mention irq, dma, base memory hell.
I remember when mp3 was so new that most people here didnt knew it, my pc needed a whole night to encode an album with the frauenhofer command line encoder. I could scroll windows in appilcations when playing mp3s (bach than with winamp 1.??) because it made the sound skip (even normal playing was 40% cpu load).
Nowadays, nobody even THINKS about running an mp3 player in the background. Its just there, using 1% or so while playing. Same with IM, an tcp/ip stack, high resolution guis, ect.
All things that were unthinkable under DOS times.
I remember, 10 years or so ago on cebit, SGI showed a cool demo an a large projection screen where they zoomed in from orbit to the alps, showing them in high res 3d, flying between the peaks.
Now i can do the same thing with nasa world wind, and the programm takes only 5 seconds to start. And allthewhile i can keep an windows win an movie in the background. Now back then, it was a pain in the ass the get even one overlay or 3d in a window to work, not to mention both together. its not even 10 years ago that VIDEO filtering wasnt even standart when playing fullscreen, back in times when a 160x120 video in 8 bit and 15fps with video1 was considered "multimedia". Or the nice alt+tab to desktop and it crashes stuff... Today, things just work. Thinks like the cool autocomplete forms that are everywhere (really cool in delphi or stuff). Or clippy. Because for people like my parents, these things ARE the computer experience, because without they wouldnt be able to do anything with that machine

I have a 160GB as in 160*10^9 byte HD, so i dont care a bit how much space in 2^something is used, but in megabyte.
If you mean MiB or GiB, say it.
Er quite opposite: With analog media, you get slightly less fidelity if there in an error on the band.
With digital (especially REALLY compressed digital) data, you get drop out till the next resync, shit frames, ect...
er, dvhs has 1080i HDTV NOW, blue ray and hd-dvd are not here yet.
well, maybe the eyecandy, like they included a whole 3d-engine to realtime preview all the texture filtering /aa settings...
