One solution not mentioned....TUPPERWARE! Buy the appropriate sizes to fit the electronics. Then put them in the cooler and use anything you want , ice, dry ice, ice packs, etc. in the cooler. I suspect you might what to beef up the seal where the top fits on the base, but I'm sure you guys can figure that one out..
I know it's hard to believe, but there are some/. readers who do get out of their basements now and then. I for one would like to see more of these types of product reviews.
Because it would require a significant infrastructure change, which might, just might, put a small dent in the oil companies' massive record profits....
You obviously are too young to have ever used vinyl. One had to get anal about NOT touching grooves, lest the oils interfer with the ability of the needle to make apprpriate contact with both sides of the groove.
Is there any actual evidence that the person posting on WoW is the actual person? The post didn't quite "seem" as it was written by such a victim. Far too many direct quotations and mostly grammatically correct. I suspect someone found the story and went off on a tangent...
My guess is that they are using f2c (translating fortran to C first, then compiling), rather than integrating and updating g77. I don't expect this to match most native Fortran compilers for efficiency.
We implemented a base 64 packing for floating point data using printable ASCII characters, as we needed to transfer files from VAX/VMS to CRAY machines. Yes, that was about 20 years ago!!!!
You forgot a part:
3a) Many journals also require a page charge ($80+ per page) from the faculty member. That charge frequently also comes out of the same grant that funded the research.
So for government grants, they are also partially paying to publish the journal in the first place.
So if the dinosaurs were around at the time of the flood, why weren't two of each species brought aboard the ark? Noah was prejudiced against reptiles?
Nope! Parent's statement is just fine. The force of acceleration is simply measured by gravity equivalents and in this case has nothing to do with the earth's gravity. It is the acceleration that pushes you against the seat back.
There are numerous applications in the applied sciences where it is very difficult to take advantage of 10's or 100's of thousands of processors. There are a few applications that are termed "embarassingly parallel" because they are easy to run, but most are not. It is much easier on the harder applications to get some degree of parallel efficiency on a few fast cpus (the NEC/Fujitsu-type of vector supercomputer), as opposed to trying to be efficient on a cluster of G5's.
...that the genre of SF (as many other artistic endeavors) is having creative difficulty. Walk into a bookstore these days, pick up an interesting-looking book, and see that it is 12th in a series of 18. Come on, if the authors cannot deal with new character development, like they did 40 years ago for virtually every novel, something is wrong!

Ironically (yes, I saw the thread above...), the cheaper the hotel, the more likely it is to have free internet.

How many cores does this chip have?

As per TFA, they use a 1000-watt power supply. It does not consume a 1000 watts of power.
I agree with the bottle deposit concept. The goal is NOT to throw things out, but to encourage the consumer to bring them back for recycling.
I'm buying Christmas cards tomorrow....
...that'll throw them off my trail...

Must everything be placed in the "past"? Doesn't anybody have enough creativity to extend these series into the "future"?!?!?!?
Geez, on /. yet... that's Bradbury's Farenheit 451...

I think "FireSpire" has a nice ring to it...
Circa 1980:
...but the rest of the desk will be the cooling system!
Someday everyone will have a Cray on their desk...
This of course has come to fruition, but the corollary:
fortunately is not true!

Aahh, 1996...the good old days...
I remember when we would write ASCII graphics contouring programs for line printers!
"the CEO of Red Hat now says that Linux is not ready for the desktop, but may be ready in a few more years."
This sounds like him attempting a justification for RedHat's actions of dropping desktop support and focusing on the Enterprise Edition.
Two different words then: venture capital
I am Richard Stallman, inventor of the original much-imitated EMACS
Note he said inventor, rather than author. Now he's one of the stalwarts fighting against software patents...
