WTH is that crap? Horse and buggy my ass! Those "air buggies" will probably be redesigned and equipped with the SABRE (rocket engine) before you know it.
My next deck rebuild might be that. While it is a special order for both my local Lowes and Home Depot, I'll definitely get a sample of it before I start the project. Though I have a feeling it be expensive as hell, and I'm not sure it's worth the investment for the home i'm currently in. But, it definitely looks like a premium product that will last.
Too bad there isn't that kind of material used as a substitute for standard fence pickets. I'm about to redo my fence because it was originally builder grade el-cheapo material (none treated wood).
You know, lots of people want to ban plastic bags. Truth is, I recycle them to collect and throw out my garbage. It saves me from buying actual garbage bags which would end up in the landfill anyways.
As for packaging material, and temporary food holding, I could care less if it's paper or not. Plastic used for packaging material is wasteful if biodegradable options exist. And hey, if you can make my plastic bags biodegradable too, I'm cool with that.
Never attribute to malice what can be adequately explained by stupidity.
No NEVER!!!. I will never attribute to "stupidity" of totalitarian control and the wake of deaths said goverments cause. That takes engineering, effort. The atrocities of Mao, Stalin, Hitler, Kim's, etc are never because of "stupid" Jails, concentration camps, police, and military just don't happen on their own.
Would it not make sense to just create an NVMe SSD with Xpoint as the internal cache of the drive for the rest of the NAND memory in a single storage device?
Dude, with all the motherfucking outsourcing and in-sourcing going on, China owns the US like a little bitch. This nation was sold out loooooonng ago.
The other shoe to drop is a complete 0wnage of our infrastructure the hour war is declared. The first bomb wouldn't have to be dropped. Put a fork in it, done
Core is a dead-end architecture if they can't plug they security holes. Assuming it's even possible to stack dies into multiple layers in a single CPU package, that might be the way to go if going low powered. Trade lock frequency for more die complexity to increase IPC performance at a lower power. That last part is important due to the need to keep the entire CPU cool without hot-spot damaged.
There are many animals in this world in that if you give them an unlimited supply of food, they will keep on eating until they die; often in very short order.
We humans aren't much different, with the exception of it taking a munch longer timeline.
Eat healthy, and don't consume more calories than your body can burn. The math does catch up with you, and the results show themselves in the form of fat.
You might be interesting to watch the review of an old Intel prototype GPU card, and the history of it from Linux Tech Tips. It truly is interesting and a review of history done justice. I know my PC hardware, but wow, this was very interesting and a bit of trivia I wasn't aware of. Highly recommend watching it.
What I got out of that review was that Intel's card was less ASIC and more programmable. It was more of a cross between a CPU and GPU, but with lots of cores. Unfortunately, it never performed as well as a DirectX specific card, and was very power hungry. It was however far more flexible and adaptable to whatever you can program it to do. For it's time, it probably would have been the Bit Coin miner to have at the time.
That was normal for AGP. In fact, it's called the "AGP aperture". In BIOS, you could allocate 4MB to 256MB of system RAM to the card. So it's not like Intel was being cheap with their implementation of an AGP video card. It's just that the GPU was...well...crap compared to the rest of the competition.
What good does it do when the Chinese hack into our nation and take it? Fuck it, let the Chinese fund this since they're going to get it regardless. Why foot the bill?
Ssshhhiiiiittttt. Don't put it past the Gov to pull a stunt like that.
Step 1. Print money via the Treasury in addition to spending tax payer money. Step 2. Build supercomputer Step 3. Mine Crypto Currency (Bitcoin) Step 4. Sell said Crypto Currency. Step 5. Recycle the money back into the Gov.
Latency. Twitch games such the FPS genres MUST be played locally. Speed of light is the limitation here. And while you could make the case that latency is already a factor when playing online, it will be even worse having having to send the commands, then wait for a video redraw response.
I agree. This should apply to all island civilization where your primary energy sources is not native. Should a World War breakout, you would be the least of everyone's concern unless there was a military strategic interest. Not having a flow of supplies would screw everyone living there. Purely out of national security of the island, all energy should be renewable.

Real men drink Shiner Bock and Saint Arnold.
But then again, that's because real men are from Texas

For that exact reason you use scrubber technology with your incinerators.

No, really. The recycle process is as follows - Reduce, Reuse, Recycle (in that order).
No one cares to reduce or reuse. Ok, fine. Then recycle it back to usable form of energy; burn it!

Mutations don't matter when the casualty count is as high as a thermonuclear exchange.

personally I think it's a shame we're not seeing more electric ships.
You need megawatts, as another poster pointed out. For large cargo ships, they should be nuclear based.

There's actually two version of USB 3.1.
USB 3.1 Gen 1 = 5 gbit/s
USB 3.1 Gen 2 = 10 gbit/s
Yes, USB nomenclature is a clusterfuck

Well yeah, GPUs are pushing into the 100+ TFLOP ranges these days.

You want just a "phone" with txt messaging ability for on the go..on an iPhone?? Heresy!!!
But yeah, I agree. But it ain't happenin
