Never have I had a program I installed by hand depend on more than 1 other uncommon program/library I didn't already have installed. And, Package managers take care of that for all common libraries.
I haven't had that 'dependency hell' problem in 6 years. That would be like insulting windows vista by complaining about windows ME.
The greatest income in history for the US has next-to-nothing to do with US politics. It had everything to do with the fact that post WW2 Europe+japan has NO industry and was rebuilding. While our industrial machine went from war machines to consumer products over night and pumping out product. Also, Europe was repaying loans.
Troll?or just a Dick?-- You are the reasons [evil] corporations act the way they do.
If VW offered jettas for 100$ and you only gave them that, they would be out of business and then noone would ever offer a car that low again. Yes you might have a car, but this is a doubly bad example for your case, because you actually cost them money.
The real point is: I want the company that is giving me this deal on a rare-good-professional linux game to live on and prosper. So I donate more than 1 cent because I want there to be another game like this, and another deal like this sometime. I want to reward their behavior and not spit in their face.
I feel tremendously bad if you teach your kids the same sentiment: "lie/cheat/steal/abuse/take/copy do what ever it takes to get what you want in life w/o regard for others"
What ever happened to "do unto others, as you would have them do unto you."?
There is no difference between hardware and software, Anything you can do in software, can be done in hardware. This goes doubly for the use of FPGA's in the graphics community, So to answer your question, what could be done in 'software' (by that I assume you mean the nvidia driver) that isn't there in hardware, in short: everything. The firmware for anything using an FPGA or similiar can be the different between something that doesn't work at all, and something that can cure cancer (metaphorically).
As a side note, your inability to use your desktop environment to run nvidia-settings with the correct privileges is not an oversight by nvidia (it is either a lack of functionality in your environment, or a lack of understanding on how to utilize that functionality). The program has the ability to update your config.
I know you're joking, but a deadline scheduler doesn't make the kernel more efficient, it just makes it more predictable. Usually, Real-Time Scheduling causes a drop in efficiency.
Also From the, 'everything adds up argument,' why are you wasted time, computerpower, and electricity browsing and commenting on/. if you feel so strongly?
But I'll take a stab, since you did. What if large prime numbers help create more secure crypto. If the governmental research on prime numbers ever outpaces public by an order of magnitude, then primenumber based crypto can be more easily broken and evil govn't can better spy on citizen who want to freely communicate.
Additionally, the optimal weighting of computer power to solving out prioritized problems isn't 100% on the top priority until it is solved. Because computational ability can be broken up into the millions of computers we have, we can similarly break down out priority list and spend X_1% computing power on Y_1% pririty, and X_2% computing power on Y_2% priority ad finitum.
That is kind of a bad number to pick, because 4 isn't prime (2*2). And then go on to say that it is highly unlikely that 2 neighboring primes are mersenne primes when, the first 4 primes (2,3,5,7) are all mersenne primes, and then 13,17,19 are all in a row again.
Because everybody dies, car insurance is de-facto required by law to have (if you have a car), but gambling is neither. A better comparison of gambling with a more positive connotation would be: Wall Street, and venture capitalism.
Personally, as an American citizen, I could give a rats fuck what the international community thinks about us.
You should care, and care why. Especially because the USA is aimed to be less of a superpower in the coming years than it has since you can remember. While a country like the USA had the power to quash any and all opposition and had the backing of other powerful nations, then you can do and say what ever you want and even travel abroad easily and safely.
But, when the world hates us, doesn't give a shit whether we live or die, and china owns your home, it might just become a little less safe to be an American, domestic and abroad.
You could use microeletric gyroscopes to detemine orientation, and (in real time) use phased array antennas to only broadcast at the the closest tower.
Yeah, Also, because If I got a pop-up that said, "your pc is infected" I would just close it and say "stupid phishers you'll never get me!" So, I'm guessing that pop-ups would be much less effective then a real piece of mail/phone message.
For applications filed on or after June 8, 1995,[1] the patent term is 20 years from the filing date of the earliest U.S. application to which priority is claimed (excluding provisional applications).[2]
not if that app is run under credentials that don't have access to that address book. That sounds silly for an iphone, but that is exactly why internet facing applications on my box run as their own user and not root/myuser. Apache runs with Apache privileges.
I think there should just be accepted nuance that if you make enough money (say 1 million a year) then you lose the right to bitch about how your 'likeness' is being used.
The fact is, there are sources information that are better found in other places. Google cannot solve all your problems. Sifting through the BS search hits for some of my more scientific and technical questions is a complete waste of time compared to my textbooks. Yes, if that text book is online, then, sure, you might get a hit there, and then there is no difference at all.
It is not hard, it is unnecessarily time consuming. Because it isn't just "my documents" it is my music, my videos etc. The fact is, The "Documents and Settings" folder, or whatever its new name is, in your world is a mix of OS specific stuff, application data, and personal files.
When reinstalling windows, or upgrading windows to win7 you should be doing a clean install. Which means you would need to find a place to copy out all these things, and then put them back in. Using a completely different partition for all personal files makes this easier IMO.
True, but TSA doesn't give a damn if you are a spy, only if you are packing heat, or too much shampoo.

beat me to it...damn
I bought a used car.
And, did you completely skip the part where I like this company and want them to succeed and not fail?
I will teach my kids EXACTLY what I said I would. If you read what I wrote, it is there. There is no need to infer.

Oh, I got confused with which was a p, and which was M_p
How did they miss 2?

Sure, but Obama lives in The White House, and you live in sub-basement apartment b.

I'm betting that the Article doesn't list a lot of googleable knowledge.
Are you looking for something like this: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Term_of_patent_in_the_United_States
For applications filed on or after June 8, 1995,[1] the patent term is 20 years from the filing date of the earliest U.S. application to which priority is claimed (excluding provisional applications).[2]
