Of course we have people who are 100% Asian, African, and Caucasian. But I treat every one of them as being human (homo sapien).
Two big, and important differences between China and Cuba. One is controlled by a large body of government officials, the other by an anti-capitalist dictator.
Obviously the Chinese government is rooted in communism, but not so much today. In fact, almost half the financial institutions have been privatized in China. Clearly, the CCP has embraced capitalism will full force, and the momentum is growing stronger each year. Don't expect Castro or Hugo Chevez to follow the same lead.
Second point. The best way to end the oppression of communism is to export capitalism to that country. Because capitalism embodies freedom through personal choice and prosperity, it's quite possible China will end up with a democratic republic parliament (similar to UPC in 1912). We've learned that lesson from the Cold War. We do not want another with China...which is why we put up with their human rights record.
Microcode is included with all modern BIOS updates. As such, when you update your BIOS revision, you might get a newer microcode update to included. This microcode get's loaded on POST (Power On Self Test).
As others have pointed out, it resides in RAM (or would that be CPU cache?). So the update must loaded each time you power on the system.
Ok, I'm NOT an electrician. However, I've heard about the 60Hz cycle having its roots in the past. But with modern forms of generation, isn't 60Hz "synthesized" in order to maintain the standard now in place?
The IC engine was developed as a replacement for steam powered piston locomotion and paddle wheel boating (think river boats on the Mississippi).
For modern electric plants, steam turbines (running on natural gas or coal) are used and often running with a constant load. This makes for better optimization. In fact, all nuclear power plants use steam turbines. But if you think running a steam turbine in an automobile is far more efficient than an IC, you're mistaken. We don't have heat recovery technolgy that scales down small enough to be as effective as the ones running our power plants.
Put it to you this way regarding auto safety. If I was ignorant about road conditions and speeding, I would be endangering not only my life, but others as well. However, if I was denying there were any connections to speeding and road conditions, I would be actively putting myself and others in danger.
Because I hate al qaeda, but I hate the denier even more. This "ideology", the kind that preaches about keeping ones head in the sand is the most dangerous kind for all human race. As such, those that subscribe to it are my mortal enemies. Why? because they put my own life and the society I live in great vast danger!
Hate doesn't even begin to describe how I feel about this!
The idea that they're organized, well financed, and wish to destroy the US is purely imaginary.
and
reason we haven't had an attack in the past 6 years isn't because we've stopped them all, its because the enemy doesn't exist.
and least of all...
No, there is no mystical Alqueda organization out there wanting to kill us all
You just keep telling yourself these things. No doubt the rest of Slashdot wants to hear them too given your moderation. But saying 1+1=3 doesn't change THE FUCKING FACT IT = 2!!! GOD damn your such a FUCKING MORON!!!
Yes, I'm personally attacking YOU! Because it's people like you that make the world LESS SAFE with your refusal to face the FACTS! Your level of thinking is far too dangerous to the human race to be taken seriously. Worse yet, people do take you as such. GO TO HELL!
You laugh, but most American Communist/Socialists reside academia. Keep in mind that those in academia are constantly trying to "reinvent the wheel". So naturally those in academia (vs. any other organization) would be against anything of the status-quo...like conservatism and capitalism.
Too bad history isn't at the top of the aforementioned people's list.
Surely with so many trillions or quadrillions of atoms that make me up, there will always be some loss. So when you transport me from home to the office, I am a lossy me.
And then, of course, the more you transport, the more you become like a photocopy of a photocopy of a photocopy of a photocopy.
Unless there's some form of error correction, you're correct. You would be "faxing" your quantum information to another location which then is applied to matter. I suppose you could use two atomic clocks in sync to provide proper fax error correction, but then what happens when you span great distance (star systems, galaxies...etc)? Surely time dialation would kick them out of sync again. The risk of cancer from DNA corruption scares the hell outta me.
Which is why every sensible driver should engage in the SUV arms race. As a nice side effect, we'll run out of oil much faster, and we'll actually have to start thinking about alternative energy sources.
As others have pointed out, they hit your wallet hard in gas fees and tend to roll over. They've become inefficient dinosaurs about to become extinct. If you must shuttle your family around, than a "crossover" vehicle makes for a viable option.
So what do I drive? A 99 Miata. I'm basically a small little rodent on the highways. I'm very fast a nimble. While I would be the loser in an accident with an SUV, at least I'm very well prepaired to avoid one in the first place.
Just like in nature, our vehicles are undergoing contant evolution. It's fairly obvious which "species" will die off.
Actually (and speaking of Time Warner in Austin), this is done on purpose for logging in case they they are sopenaed by the RIAA or MPAA...which happens a LOT! So your IP is dynamic, but will only change after so many days have passed. Releasing and renewing will NOT force a new IP to be given because it's bound to the devices mac address connected to the modem (not the internal modems mac).
In other words, it is DHCP, but the IP addresses get refreshed at their discretion, not yours.
There is a work around however. Just clone a different mac address on your router or computer, reboot the modem, and voila...a new IP address has been given.
Tell me - who is it that is calling for Nuremberg style trials?
David Robers. He's a staff writer for Grist Magazine.
I've heard a few others say the same thing, but perhaps they were just echoing what David said. None the less, such an attitude is Stalinist! These outspoken people are beyond reasonable, in fact they are down right MAD (insane). They do make the headlines however...
Screw them. Until E-bay institutes a much needed "overtime" change, I will never do business anymore. I'm tired of all the 1-second-till-end phantom biding programs and online services screwing me over.
Here's how it should work. Let's say the bid ends today at 5:00pm. However, if someone places a bid at 4:50pm, it should extend the end time to 5:10pm. At this point, it will continue to be extended to 5:20, 5:30, and 5:40 as long as there still bidding going on. Only when there's a period of inactivity, the bid is closed.
Such a system is fair for the bidder, and great for the seller. Also, e-bay would gain an extra cut from the increased sales revenue. It's a win, win, win situation for all parties involved. So WTF is holding E-bay back? Do they WANT to piss everyone off?
The way I see it, TorrentSpy has only one option. That is to perform a memory dump to a file, burn it to DVD, and turn it over.
Question: If the OS already purged the IP information from RAM, who is held responsible for the destruction of the data? Maybe the judge should be informed that all data in RAM is subject to change without the users direct oversight. Basically, all that data could have been purged withen microseconds the moment TorrentSpy was issued the court order. Obviously this doesn't give you enought time to react.
There are also magnetic forms of memory used in chips, but from what I understand it is still experimental and bulky, though it was used in some ancient computers (before the days of microchips).
It's called Core Memory. There's a nice Wiki article about the stuff.

Precisely why the internal combustion engine was developed. The IC engine is far more efficient in comparison.
This challenge is nothing more than novelty. Nothing wrong with that, I would love to be a spectator at this event.
Ignorance = implicit disregard

Or maybe it's because Clinton had the intel, but never acted on it? Oh noes! Slick Willy must not engage the enemy for it would screw up his legacy.

Thanks, but no thanks. I'll take the cab to work.
Well, do they?
1. Hunt
2. Fire
3. Self distruct if in danger and/or out of ammo.
So you've got car bombs eh? Well, we've got ROBO-BOMBER!

Because I want to make more money selling my crap. Also, I want the ability to have fair bidding when purchasing other peoples crap.
