Mythbusters did an episode testing a variety of submerged window myths. Once underwater, the manual crank isn't going to be any good. The pressure differential pushing in on the window is too great.
They also discovered that power windows continued to operate for some time after being submerged. The pressure was still too great until the cabin was almost completely flooded, equalizing the pressure.
That and the fact that the business is now bankrupt.
No they didn't. They just shut down the dialup and email service. It's hard to imagine that in the age of broadband and fast cellular data connections covering most of the country that dial up service would be popular and/or profitable. Same would go for email hosting.
What are the (projected) long-term side-effects? Is it worth the long-term costs?
It's almost like they need to do a large clinical trial to actually find out. If only they'd do one...
Someone else pointed out the difference between "improve" and "completely erased". But for someone who has a lot of mental disorders running through the family tree and with friends, there is vast differences for what works for one person but not another even for similar symptoms. I'd be extremely surprised if the 60-70% and two-thirds very closely matched. It's never a bad thing to have additional options to treat a condition.
Google "Macbook BGA" or "Macbook reflow". Heat issues lead to video chips solder joints breaking over time. It's not an issue that is unique to Macbooks, so I'm not hating on Macs, but it is an issue over time.
Regarding hard drives, I've had laptops whose mainboards have died and weren't worth the cost to repair them. I've never had a problem popping out the hard drive, plugging it in to another computer, and pulling off my files. When the storage drive is directly soldered to the mainboard...not sure how I would recover that data. Sure I could get a time capsule so that all my files are backed up, but that's just another $250 expense on top of everything else just so I can save.01mm thickness.
You're calculation is correct, but your use is extremely unrealistic. Can you identify a use case where you need to fill up a 250GB consumer drive 400 times sequentially in 9 hours?
You want write rates to be as fast as possible so that the drive isn't the limiting factor, but realistic desktop/laptop use isn't going to be maxing that out for long periods of time. Even high end enterprise SSD won't do a significant fraction of the writes you are calculating and remain usable for long.
Thankfully we will never know what would have happened if Clinton won the election, but speculation that the 2nd amendment would be gone is fair game based on her own statements.
Oh it definitely would have been gone. All she would have have to do is get an amendment with 2/3 approval through two houses of Congress that are Republican controlled, then get 38 states to ratify it, even though 32 of the states have Republican legislatures.
Do you notice who isn't involved in that process? The President. Your precious 2nd Amendment wasn't going anywhere.
And as the Navy is the only US armed force that owns and operates a nuclear powered rail gun
The Navy actually operates one? As in it's installed on a ship and actually functional? I thought they were all still in design/testing phase with only the USS Zumwalt having excess power capacity to fully power one.
As for the speaker, if it's in the engine compartment it's probably rated for temperatures from -40 through 150F, if not more. Plus it's likely going to be exposed to a LOT of dirt/dust/water, while still needing to be heard.
If only there were some type of a sound producing device mounted to the front of vehicles that was already designed to withstand the extreme environmental conditions...
But it's pretty damn hypocritical to revere the text of the Declaration of Independence so and to go on with statements about the rights of self-determination in the rest of the world; but to deny the people of California or Texas or whatever other state to go their own way when the citizens decide that Washington DC isn't working for them.
I get what you're saying, but where do you stop then? If Texas or California should be able to break away from the Union, should Broward and Miami-Dade counties in Florida be able to break away? Should the cities of Austin or Houston Texas be allowed since they are blue in a sea of red?
If you're going to talk about rights of self-determination, at what point does self not refer to an individual or smaller groups of numbers (neighborhood, town, city, county, etc)
Another question would be of course why would those lights even have the ability to install new software in the first place. Is it really that hard to do software right, that no updates are needed for something as simple as a lamp?
Well, based on the fact that we're here talking about it, yeah, I'd say that there may circumstances where an update is needed because a flaw was found. Or would you rather just toss the bulb and go buy another updated one for $50?
To be fair though, RFCs aren't software. If I write an RFC defining how software to teleport beer should work that is one thing, but actually writing the software and making it work is another matter.
I look at RFCs kind of like patents. They formally describe methods, behaviors, research, or innovations of something related to the internet. They let everyone know of an idea so that everyone implementing that idea has a basis for things to work together. And they allow people to build upon those ideas in creating derivative works.
If you look at RFC561 there is even a sample email message. Shiva Ayyadurai might have created the first full and complete email system as we know it today, but he didn't create the concept of email. Even the Smithsonian National Museum of American History says as much:
Exchanging messages through computer systems, what most people call âoeemail,â predates the work of Ayyadurai. However, the museum found that Ayyaduraiâ(TM)s materials served as signposts to several stories about the American experience.
But there's a difference between having an idea and actually building something.
That card reader seems a lot less cumbersome than a SD card sticking out a few tenths of an inch. No chance that you'd ever bump or catch that card reader on something. Or it damaging your USB port. Or taking up more space along with the dozen other adapters you now carry around with your laptop.

That's just a derivative of Poe's Law at work.

Just wait about a month and a half AT&T and Verizon. Everything will be a-ok.

Well, obviously it would be a gigantic room.
Just wait until January 20th.

That's what the updated cover will read when this hits the bargain book rack at Barnes and Nobles.

Not all servers require large hard drives.

That sounds kind of racist.
It's really just a $5 investment...
What laws prohibit a marketer from specifically targeting a particular demographic, even if it's a protected class?

Yeah. I'm that guy.

The USPTO would differ with you on that idea.
Interesting how you say that the OS should do this, then suggest two applications that aren't part of the OS.

I'm actually kinda surprised that the number is only 3,600 domains. I'd expect a lot higher number for Trump.
