...if I manage to get it graphed with gnuplot I'll reply to myself and you can take a look.
Please note, I'm not an expert on notebook cooling, I was largely making a pointer to the Intel specs. However, if I had a notebook getting that hot, I'd probably take it back if still under warranty; otherwise, I'd probably have the cover off and use a calibrated probe. I'd wonder whether it's actually getting that hot... perhaps you could try tracking the temperature from a thermally cold start to see if the measurement suddenly "jumps" to an unreasonable value?
This is insanely high. Dothan's only rated up to 100C (see the Intel thermal guide), so you're certainly pushing the envelope. Assuming that the temperature report is accurate, check the fans are spinning and check for dust. Such high temperatures, plus a delta-T of 46C, will do the other internal components no good whatsoever. On the other hand, the reported temperature could be a complete load of bollocks brought on by a buggy BIOS or faulty sensor --- which can't be ruled out given that (a) your machine hasn't died yet; and (b) you've not been physically burned by it.
Release specs and docs for hardware, costs nothing, community will do the rest.
I doubt HP has the right to release this information. I've an HP notebook, and I can't get the sleep modes to work. No, I lie --- it's like the modem, I've never even bothered trying to get them to work. Other things are the digital media reader and the wireless: the former is probably protected by an NDA with Texas Instruments, and the latter is a Broadcom so I have to use ndiswrapper and Windows drivers which rejoice in taking out my kernel after 90 minutes.
...McKinnon describes... the "non-terrestrial officers"... he found in US military documents. He seems to believe that a complete U.S. space army already exists, with those involved based in military orbiting stations.
And earlier today, General Richard Dean Anderson said that bastard cracker who stole the script for the next season of Stargate SG-1 would be tracked down and punished to the full extent of the law.
As another poster pointed out, the archive must have a.spec file in it and you may need some -devel packages for the build. Many tar.gz's unfortunately lack the.spec file, although an increasing number of projects seem to have them. You could also do something like./configure --prefix=/somewhere/else, run make install to that location, and then cook up a.spec file to pick out the files. (I did something similar with a bunch of fonts I used in LaTeX.) Visit Maximum RPM for more information.
5) Anything I create will be stolen by a monopoly excercising its monopoly power
So we're back to the old free coders/happy coders thing again. There's no incentive to it! Prostitute your creative programming soul in some godforsaken Microsoft project, take home the pay cheque: Be Happy and forget everything you saw.
just imagine the licencing difficulty of making sure submitted samples were legal....
What, if, say, EMIBM Music were to release samples they own for the OSM community, only for Scony BMG Music to later claim that they were, in fact, the owner of those samples (through some obfuscated route of alleged acquisition), and that their inclusion in OSM projects constitutes theft of their intellectual property?
On another note, I sure hope Darl McBride isn't looking to the music industry for his next job.
Later in the afternoon, she sat outside with S. "Soma" Somasegar, a Microsoft corporate vice president, and described her vision for a self-navigating car.
Whoa, missy! Prior art! Everyone around here knows the Russians got there first!
Ever wonder why almost every vendor calls them "notebooks" these days and not "laptops"?
Even many of the portables with "M"-class processors have fans on the underside. They are designed to get noticably warmer than desktops; unless the thing is crashing or switching itself off, there's probably no need to worry. Just keep the air vents clean of dust, and stick it on a table and enjoy the performance (safe in the knowledge that, if you are male, it's not rendering you infertile). I have a notebook with a 2.8 GHz desktop Northwood that idles at around 41 C, but goes up to 57 C at full tilt. If I have to use it on my lap (which I avoid because the undulations don't help the hard disc), I use a large hard-back book.
Aren't there less tinfoil hat-ish ways to do this, like subscriber logins? Restrict to ranges of IPs from known service providers, and then increase the VAT on broadband internet subscriptions? In fact, using the Internet to sort out license subscriptions might require fewer strongarm tactics than currently employed by the TVLA. Someone not paid? Just block 'em. Can't do that with TV.
Good Lord, there's enough stuff here to create a complete, high quality TIVO system with full network/P2P support! If this is any indication, BBC is taking the concept of Internet broadcasting *very* seriously.
I think they are. They might also be thinking of putting Dirac into digital set-top boxes to increase capacity or quality when HDTV hits the UK.
What inspired the British Broadcasting Corporation to suddenly leap into the software programming foray? Are they hoping to build some sort of new service out of all of this, or is it just going to end up as a bunch of disconnected apps?
Hopefully, the BBC will be able to forge some open standards through this approach. In the past, BBC developments have shaped (or at least steered) the adoption of technology in the UK, and I think Open Source is probably the most compatible with their remit as a public service provider.
It appears that broadcasting today is driven by information technology --- and this means software. The two are inextricably linked. As the BBC is funded by the public (rightly or wrongly), it is good that it should release as much IP related to its technology back to a public domain, and not rely on proprietary technology (hence Dirac). I don't want my license fee going to Microsoft or Real, I paid the BBC!
What I always use to shut up the right-wingers is how can they be pro-capital punishment and pro-life at the same time. One of their views doesn't jive with the other.
The right-wing "Christian" neo-Conservative nutters to which you are referring are neither "pro-life" nor "pro-death". The only thing they are "pro" is getting other people to do as they say, regardless of the misery it causes, and not as they do.

With a wink to the original poster, I've found this...

Aren't large numbers of pins in the socket dedicated to supplying power to the chip?

Or, for that matter, pushed, filed, stamped, indexed, briefed, debriefed... or numbered.
And even easier when you can rpmbuild -tb tarfile .tar.gz, as it's easier to remove it all when you're done or upgrade cleanly.

Well how did these "fuckers" get in in the first place?
Through the CAT-5e flap?
I doubt the folks on the production line over at Wolfsburg would agree with that sentiment.
Perhaps the poster was alluding to "corporate" masturbation.
