  1. Re:Linpack throughput on Intel Cascade Lake-AP Xeon CPUs Embrace the Multi-Chip Module (techreport.com) · · Score: 1

    This. Also, "Intel forges ahead using their processor-specific compilers and instructions, ensuring their stranglehold over FPU instruction set adoption remains one generation ahead of the competition's ability to license access to said instructions."

  2. I laughed, well played. Also showing my age here.

  3. Summary fail. on Tesla Will Discontinue the Roadster · · Score: 1

    I am disappoint.

  4. Whateer you do... on Aging Reversed In Mice · · Score: 1

    Don't tell Emperor Palpatine. That crazy old bugger does want to live forever! ... Hang on a sec, I have a 800 year-old little green guy with a cane at my door, asking if I think I'm a Jedi or not....

  5. Don't use PST on Best Way To Archive Emails For Later Searching? · · Score: 1

    PSTs are hard-coded to tank, depending on the version of Outlook used. Right now with Outlook 2007 it's 20GB. Nobody NEEDS that much mail, but as an archive it's possible. Maybe a CMS server like Knowledgetree? Provided that it can parse the mail passed into it, it's a great open-source project that seems to have great staying power and development. I'll be testing that myself this week using mail messages that currently reside in Thunderbird.

  6. Definitely Crossloop on Simple, Free Web Remote PC Control? · · Score: 1, Informative

    We use Crossloop to support our international, non VLAN-connected users worldwide. Even on fractional T1s it works nicely. I'd recommend it for sure. I've even used it from home to connect to family members, both over cable ISP feeds with maybe 640kbit upload at each end - it works well then, too.

  7. I just want someone to invent the capsuleer pod... on Space Shuttle To Be Replaced By SpaceX For ISS Resupply · · Score: 0

    ...so I can get up there and have the first Caldari control tower anchored off the Moon. Manufacturing, research, storage. I'll have it all.Now all I need to do is to make sure that the damn Minnies don't start throwing VWs at my station. Who wants to help build cruise missile batteries? Capital construction hangars?

  8. Not sure what a MMO* is, but... on Throwing Out the Rulebook For MMOs · · Score: 0

    EVE is what I play as I wait for the cost of human space travel to go down. It's a little bit of salve for my soul, knowing full well I'll never see jump drives, modulated strip miners or 1400mm howitzers and their battleship ilk piloted by incompetent Minmatarian asshats. Besides, if you're ANYTHING of a space warfare / space "tech" person and you haven't witnessed an EVE carrier, mothership or Titan up close and "personal" in-game... you're missing out. EVE is fun... and then there are capital ships. Capital ships are proof that some of the right people took the right lessons away from the Star Wars universe and applied them elsewhere.

  9. As seen in the Jita Local channel: on MIT and the Constant Robotic Gardeners · · Score: 0

    WTS: 100 tomatoes, 10 isk per, best price in Jita!

    Got podded on lvl 1 mission, can someone spare 2 rutabagas?

    Convo me for best prices on tomatoes, potatoes and cucumbers.

  10. Re:Eve solved this problem on Game Developers On Gold Selling · · Score: 0

    I've sold ETCs as PLEXes a couple of times... it made buying my freighter much easier when I was already trained up to the point that I could fly it.

  11. I hate to sound like a broken record here... on The State of Sci-Fi MMOs · · Score: 0

    But EVE is THE best game I've played, MMO or otherwise, since Ultima: Online (and yes, I know that it's STILL around) in terms of a comprehensive and immersive user experience. My EVE main character is about 4 years old (but without 4 years of consecutive gameplay - took two breaks) and my IRL friends and I run a nice little Corp that invents t2 stuff and we're now into reverse-engineering for t3 stuff that came with Apocrypha. It is also singularly awesome in that you get all of your expansions rolled out as part of your subscription, unlike *cough*WoW*cough* some OTHER games.

  12. Re:We're doomed on Slashdot Launches User Achievements · · Score: 0

    Mixing Slashdot and WoW is like mixing Coke and heroin.

  13. So, it's possible to achieve after all! on Slashdot Launches User Achievements · · Score: 0

    Thanks Slashdot, for doing for me what Sylvan's creepy, happy instructors couldn't - not while Mom was around, anyways!

  14. Re:That's nice, but... on AT&T Has Begun Issuing RIAA Takedown Notices · · Score: 0

    Zombies don't need port 25. Also note that I didn't say anything about spam specifically - DDoS attacks, distributed port scanning, packet capture, hsoting for MITM attacks, it's all possible.

  15. That's nice, but... on AT&T Has Begun Issuing RIAA Takedown Notices · · Score: 4, Insightful

    When are they doing to do something about the plethora of zombie computers on their home subscriber feeds? They'll police the "illegal sharing" of content but they don't care how much spam their users generate? Sounds a little fishy to me.

  16. That's ok on An Early Look at the NASA MMO · · Score: 0

    As soon as we establish another wormhole to New Eden, we'll bring plenty of motherships back through to help with colonization efforts. Honest. Pay no attention to the Titans with the doomsday weapons. I wonder if there will be the chance to invent new tech, considering none of the stuff they have now is any good for long-term colonization.

  19. Re:DIR-655 on D-Link DIR-655 Firmware 1.21 Hijacks Your Internet Connection · · Score: 0

    And those that never wanted the feature have to put up with "rogue" routers? That's hardly justification for behaviour that would have gotten the programmers sued had this been a purely software thing.

  20. Oh the Vogonity on Experimental Magnetic Shield Against Cosmic Rays · · Score: 0

    Won't someone think of the Vogons?

  21. and in unrelated news... on Africa Leads In IPv6 Adoption · · Score: 0

    The first wave of IPv6 409ers are coming from... Africa! Jeez, the first new waves of botnets are from the third world. Script kiddies and mass mailers will be so proud!

  22. It's about time on IE8 Will Contain an Accidental Ad Blocker · · Score: 0

    Internet Explorer's blocking capabilities have still been trailing behind Firefox, even with I.E. 7. They've spent more time on gimmicks (Phishing Filter) than actual protection. "Here - this website might be suspicious, but enjoy! Oh, and here are the 5 pop-ups and -unders that the site is serving in the hopes you'll install some malware and join their dark dominion." Firefox - "NO. Just no pop-ups. NO. Bad dog."

  23. Starving IT guys rejoice! on Oil Soaked Servers Coming Soon · · Score: 0

    No more long cafeteria lines! Simply bring your lunch to the server room and cook away! Make sure you strain the bits out or they'll clog the tape backup. Nobody wants to restore your lunch, anyways.

  24. Boring! on Building Tomorrow's Soldier Today · · Score: 0
