The problem is that ALS is degeneration of the motor nerves, and this senses signals sent to those. True, it senses signals too small to actually move the muscle, but it still relies on the nerves that are degrading.
It's a joke, really. Ruby on Rails. MagLev trains are faster than normal trains, so Ruby on MagLev should be faster. It's faster rails. That said, it would be great if the headline and summary were rewritten to make this understandable.
It doesn't even matter if they had done this to a torrent tracker hosting torrents of copyrighted material which the users didn't have the right to distribute. It would still be a DoS, it would still be illegal, and they could still get investigated by the FBI. DoS attacks are a felony. Just because the victim of a felony is a criminal does not make the felony any less serious.
That said, the article describes the attack as a SYN flood. Why wasn't R3's firewall configured to stop this? 8000 packets per second is a lot, and could take up channel capacity, but only on a 1Mibps or less link, unless the SYN packets were unusually large. An attack like that should just get dropped at the firewall, and maybe make the site a bit slow, A large site like S3 should have a modern enough network that such a simple attack shouldn't bring down the servers.
Of course, one should keep in mind the length of time a model M can last for. 20+ years is not unexpected. Upgrading computers every 5 years means it's $69 from four $1000 computers, a much better deal.
I'm 21, same deal. When I get a laptop I'll be using a USB adapter and my model M. Sure, it's heavier, but those membrane keyboards are hell to type on compared to the M.
The process for that is to hold Alt+SysRQ and type REISUB.
ALT + SYSRQ + R gives back control of the keyboard
ALT + SYSRQ +E sends all processes but init the term singal
ALT + SYSRQ +I sends all processes but init the kill signal
ALT + SYSRQ +S issues a sync
ALT + SYSRQ +U mounts all filesystems ro to prevent a fsck at reboot
ALT + SYSRQ +B reboots the system
You really don't want to see the numbers wear off, and since the numbers are molded into the plastic of the keycaps they almost never do wear off. For a Black belt, having it fray to white shows two things: you've been a black belt for a long time, and you don't take good care of your belt. It shouldn't fray, ever. Fade, yes, but fraying is bad.
Dishwasher isn't really a good idea. Water can get stuck inside and cause problems. Far better to disassemble the thing and do it manually.
That said, Model Ms aren't that hard to clean. The Care and Feeding of a Model M is a good article on this.
Unicomp is a small business, if you ask they'd probably sell you a new trackpoint stick.
As for typing speed, it is noticeable. I go from 80-90 up to about 120 when switching to my Model M. (My Model M is DSK, and I type a LOT. Normal, QWERTY keyboard I average about 75.)
I like to FEEL when I've clicked a key, and not have to press so hard the key slams into the backplate. Thus, I love my Customizer. Also, they really will customize them. It's $10 extra, but mine is DSK layout with Capslock and LCtrl swapped, and Esc and ` swapped, IE Linux/UNIX layout. You can also get blank keys, international, and other layouts, and they make sure the hardware works so you don't have to change software settings (It's PS/2 though. Some PS/2->USB adapters don't work, as Model Ms draw a lot of current.)

No, no, a fascist is someone who follows the fasces, the Roman bundle of sticks with an axe. Fascists are axe faggots. Nothing to do with faces.
Yes, they'll try to shut down freenet. That said, freenet should be very, very hard to eliminate without taking the entire internet down.
Nope. The GAO (Not GOA) can rubberstamp projects. If the Government Accountability Office says it's ok, it must be fine!

He means it in the sense of food processing. That is converting waste meat into useful products.
Slightly more complex. This tool then filters the output to try to find which RST packets are forged. That captures them all.
It's the law of committees. None of us is as dumb as all of us. Also, the morality of a group is inversely proportional to the size of the group.
Same, San Diego.
Being elitist with those standards is like being happy you're a cockroach instead of a planarian.

That's why you need to make the spin-off companies before you get sued.

No, no, Unicomp Customizers are called that for a reason. If you want blank keys, you can get blank keys. It should be about $10 more.

It seems to be about 4.5 pounds. They can even be used in deadfall traps.
Most modern H&K weapons are ambidextrous and eject the casings out the bottom, for exactly that reason.

I think you mean "Religion has been waging war with the rest of the world since it was invented."
