Does it? It would suck having a processor design finalized and not being able to fab it while factories are overhauled? Or having a new fab process come out and having no design to upgrade too?
If the two aspects of AMDs business aren't lining up then that's terrible but it seems like they were doing a good job for a while, fab5 and 6 were coming online when the 754 and 939 were doing well.
Unfortunately AMD has a strong relationship with IBM so they will likely moe their fabs over to their quasi-partner (perhaps with an agreement that IBM stay out of the consumer/low end server marketspace).
Most third party fabs run in the 20-35nm range where flexbility is higher and diffrent products can be released simultaneously.
I would prefer to see AMD stay in this and create an arm of their business that fabs and outsources fabbing to companies like SIS, NVIDIA etc who could benefit from larger dies and better tech. Most graphics cards are still being released in.13 for example and have very high power requirements, not to mention being increadibly expensive.
Um lords were commanders and their sons became the lords/commanders.
Samurai was an aspect of lineage. Basically the whole thing was nepotistic and aristocratic, if you know people higher up (Through friends or family) they'll talk to you at parties, instruct you in the craft and want you as their backup.
If you were starting a company right now with a good idea you'd probably look to your friends or online aquaintences for employees rather than hiring someone who you may not get along with or who may have a very diffrent attitude towards work, it has gone on a long time and it will continue.
I like the idea of gamers being able to do better because they have more money (in FPS (First person shooters)this equates to FPS (Frames per second)) and it's pretty rediculous that we should be trying to remove their motivation to contribute to real society when so many people admit they've been sucked into these games treating them like jobs.
Unless I'm wrong the two biggest file sharing sites are isohunt.com and piratebay, in Canada and Sweden respectively.
I'll assume you're American from the tone of your post.
As to them mocking liberalism, you wouldn't even recognize how liberal we/they are from where you are. They say they'll take it down because they will, stuff leaves those sites all the time.
And yes they want to make a living, and no it's not excessive, they want to expand to continue their service and support themselves not make heaps of money. Librarians get paid too, just because the maintainers are self employed doesn't make them ruthless capitalist entrepreneurs.
These people are an offshoot of the distribution wing of filesharing, purely altruistic donation of bandwidth in order to share information, information they don't even control or limit. Both would host rabid anti-filesharing rhetoric as freely as pro. Disagreeing with their reasoning in supporting copywrite violation is fine, but don't question their ethics without something to back it up, that's just ignorant.
And yes Michael Moore supports the widest possible distribution of his films, he's not hurting for money.
Last 3 LEGIT versions of windows didn't work with windows Update, perhaps it's because Genuine advantage wants me to register including giving personal information that I KNOW microsoft doesn't need.
We can't get a robot up there that can replicate itself, we just aren't quite there yet. So what can we do.
Well we can send a small probe with a bunch of biological material (That we can already freeze) and have it start a teraforming process.
Life is about the most resilient and cheap thing (size wise) thing we could send (I might suggest sending it to the second closest extra-solar planet, it would take longer but it won't matter and we won't mess stuff up for future generations who may be able to go themselves)... It's a good point that the people who go (or even those who send robots) won't have a good time, they'll be bored it'll suck, but they won't be doing it for themselves they'll be doing it for future generations and for the people it will inspire hope in everyone(Capitalism, communism or fachism won't blanket everything because they won't be a "final state" for the world).
I might be alone but did anyone find the change from joules to $ disheartening? This kind of endeavour isn't for capitalism, like the first space exploration it will be the work of socialist/communist societies. All we can do is lay the groundwork and try and build a society that will develop the tech that such a society would use to get there...
Chicken vs Egg, what portable app is more likely to encourage people to open there networks and governments to blanket with wifi than phone service.
If we took the billions people spend on cell phones every year and channeled it into $30 wireless routers and $200 last mile connections I think we could do a pretty good job.
Think of laterns, they're cool and all but street lights replaced them.
It's really very easy when you cast every issue in such black-and-white terms. You know exactly who the bad guy is. That must be comforting but it's misguided faith in an organization that history shows harm everyone.
Cough, THEY ARE GOING TO JAIL. It doesn't get much more "black and white" than that, and if we sound like we're interested in defending them, of course we are we don't know these people... we do know the MAFIAA and haven't really been impressed by their morality or the legality of their methods.
I don't think there are many people who think that selling CDs and stealing revenue from creators is ok, however that does seem to be the direction this whole thing has gone. The Consumer can't accept their increasingly draconian attacks, increasing prices, lowering of quality while being bombarded with advertisements for their crap, and they can't find a new business model. We want open sourced music PRODUCTION (possibly creation but some would disagree), I don't think anyone likes seeing 98% of cd sales going to suits for "promotion". This whole thing has helped people realize what they want and we know it's possible. You think you're defending artists I think you're defending the ability to keep cultures isolated (Do we need 300 Britney Spears' one from each country?) and stymie creativity through lengthened copywrite. If this arguement was purely academic it would be fine, we could both be right or agree to disagreee. Unfortunately the MAFIA has said "we Guess what when they have paid shills hitting message boards and talking about bands on the street, even the word of mouth you think will save you from the Backstreet Boys and their ilk won't mean jack shit.
Your parent's think you listen to shit and you'll think your kids listen to shit, I'd just like to know mine had a choice.
Ancedote, I have a Ghost Phone. It has no record with any phone company, never gets a bill and can make unlimited calls anywhere.
Now none of the phone hacker people are willing to help me move the ghost account to a new phone, this old one gets terrible reception and has 3 hours standby.
But how much is this phone worth, how much is the freedom to never worry about a bill worth? Not to look at the clock not to wonder if you're going over? Well I offered my sister $1200 for the phone 3 years ago (She had it first with over 4 weeks talk time on it [she literally talked for weeks on this phone])... she told me no in a heartbeat.
$40 a month doesn't sound like much but the peace of mind of not having to deal with cell phone companies when you want to upgrade a phone or deal with them at all, is priceless.
Free service is possible, and it's nice, I recommend it to everyone... if there was free service for the.11G phones I'd be all over them in a second.
Corrolary question, when will they give me a wireless security setup that matches what I want.
I want to share about 30-40Kpbs and have intelligent performance algorithms managing the rest, I want to have my transmissions encrypted while allowing others to SHARE my web-access. (I know that's a big word, like "communist").
When we move to 802.11n (Assuming the same number of wireless routers as currently exist there will be almost 80-90% coverage in urban areas, why would I need a cell phone if we all shared, how about intelligent sharing between networks as a mesh? Once we overflow the casual bandwidth limits we can stop dealing with this "expensive last mile" crap and start getting isolated fibre channels.
My computer is secure, my internet access is mostly encrypted or tunneled, but I don't have access everywhere for affordable prices, I don't think security and sharing have to be mutually exclusive.
Apparently at some early stage of development brain cells haven't totally differentiated themselves to specific tasks and seem to be developing around their environment. If we implanted even a binary switch at that stage the brain could learn to manipulate and interpret it. The hard part isn't the brain, it's communicating with the brain.
From a couple earlier articles I read the ways they are doing this currently are through general brain state readings (Electromagnetic general conditions in certain areas like "excited" or "concentrating" or through specific nerve linkages that could control muscles, unfortunately these are both one way communication channels, when the brain starts getting feedback it can understand its development will start to reflect this advance.
Does evening the cultural division deserve to be in the same league?
The U.S. has the high ground right now but coming out of Asia are some very sucessful artists, let alone the Oasis phenomenon which swept north America in the 90s.
If the next genre of music to take over the world is something from say, Africa or communist Venezuela?
Might make it hard to set the moral and cultural agenda... There's a reason why the government supports the media (with subsidies, tax breaks and now police enforcement) damned if I know what it is;P

They're gonna build a stud Tutuara? I think their females are a little more discerning then that!
:P
They should build a female, I've met some pretty crazy females and they do quite well.
Male [Tutuara's] just aren't that discerning.
So? You also need to factor in installing litle programs, if Linux is so secure users should be allowed to install applications!
If I need a peice of software I now need to talk to a tech support instead of just installing it myself.
