    Actually, collecting semen for artificial insemination has been a major job for a while now. Granted, it's usually done with an artificial vagina, not by hand, and (at least with goats) not a buck to a wether (they're not that horny), but a buck to a doe, with the AV in between. I've got a tank of 12 liters of LN2 and 25-30 straws of goat semen in the kitchen, and I've seen a goat or two be collected... Electrojaculators just aren't that effective. PLEASE no goatse trolls!

  21. Re:What you're likely to see on Transmeta Founder Talks Chips · · Score: 1

    That's why you use Pentium Ms. x86 compatibility, ridiculously low power, the Intel name (it means something, especially when they invented the x86, and it's an x86...), etc., etc. Of course, that's exactly what Intel DOESN'T want you to do (why else did they go to socket 479?), but RadiSys has a nice board that'll fix that little problem - the LS855.

  22. Re:"kick some Intel booty" on Transmeta Founder Talks Chips · · Score: 1

    D'oh! Forgot something: the Intel spec finder is royally fscked - it doesn't list the ULV (900-1000MHz), LV (1.1GHz), BGA (all speeds, permanently soldered), or 1.7GHz CPUs. It also says that the four CPUs they list are all Socket 478, when they're actually Socket 479.

  23. Re:"kick some Intel booty" on Transmeta Founder Talks Chips · · Score: 1

    Herein lies the problem. If your CPU was really a Pentium M, here's what the info would be (guestimating on the name and certainly not the exact cpu MHz - this is synthesized, as I don't have access to a Pentium M based system)

    processor: 0
    vendor_id: GenuineIntel
    cpu family: 6 (same as a Pentium III or other P6-based cpus, not 15 like your NetBurst cored Pentium 4-M)
    model: 9 (in between Coppermine and Tualatin P3)
    model name: Mobile Intel (R) Pentium (R) M CPU 1.70GHz (see the difference?)
    stepping: ????? (I have NO idea here)
    cpu MHz: 1700.000

    Basically, you don't have a 1.8GHz Pentium M - you have an underclocked and slightly power-optimized P4 running at 1.8GHz. Hence, the name Pentium 4-M. So, a 900MHz ULV Pentium M (often found in new Tablet PC models and subnotebooks) is strong competition for your 1.8GHz Pentium 4-M.

  24. Re:The real motivation on Putting Novell's SuSE Purchase In Perspective · · Score: 1

    Well, the two ways to say SuSE are:

    SUE-zeh (the right way)
    su-zie (the wrong way, but it's kinda like lih-nuks - it's the most common way to say it - besides, it's easier)

    So, if the second pronunciation is the one you use, it's no-vell su-zie, or no-zie, already.

    Unless Micro-ATX (9.6"x9.6") is your favorite SFF mobo FF, don't spring for THAT one. Lippert has a Pentium M mobo (it's kinda strange for Mini-ITX, though, and it looks like it could be vapor (never trust a "Mid/End of Q4, 2003" and a "Price: Not fixed yet" in the beginning of Q4, 2003)), and Commell (the company behind the Pentium 4/4-M Mini-ITX mobos - they're switching away from industrial thanks to those two mobos, and they're developing SFF PC products now) is developing a Mini-ITX Pentium M mobo that is a bit more... normal.
