Has anyone else heard of or tried Kronos http://www.kronos.com/ ?? Holiday Retirement Corporation uses it for its entire work force. I only use it at a facility level. We have Human Resources and and IT department who handles it on the technical end. From the level I am allowed to use it it handles with punch cards in/out times. It allowes multi-user log ins to manually add in split shifts, sick hours, and vacation time. I have heard a future version handles scheduleing and incorporates it into the time cards to automatically adjust for minimum 2hr rules. Sorry I don't know the technical details or cost.
I know, everyone hates Windows. But when parents don't want to consider another option I'm stuck helping them.
My mother wants to be able to back up certain folders containing documents on her Windows laptop without doing anything. Is there something that will automatically do it in the background for her? The best thing I can think of for her as adding on a second hard drive, if there is room in the case, and using some software. But what software?
OK, I think I am starting to understand: a) The CPU decides things and the GPU does the math. b) The GUI uses some of the math power in the GPU. c) Use them for what they are good at.
Then, it just takes someone to develop or modify existing programs to take advantage of both the CPU and GPU for the parts of the program that each of these handle the best. Right?
I am a novice in a lot of these discussions so I don't post much. Let me see if I understand this:
The graphics card has a lot of unused computing power, nearly equal to the main processor chip in the computer if not more, that is not being used when there is no game or video being played, right?
Is there no way to tap into this power?
Perhaps it could be used for the main display on the computer (I think you guys call it GUI?)?
What else could it be used for?
Could Linux be modified to make use of this power?
Sorry, I shouldn't call you blind, but your comment leaves me to wonder if you have ever actually looked at the evidence? I will not deny the fact that it does take a leap of faith to believe that the Bible is true. (Especially if someone wants to apply it to their own lives.) But the Bible contains facts that are listed before science proved them (Even when science previously denied those same facts). I could do some research and list dozens of these facts.. But why do something that has already been done? There are books out there written by people who researched these things out. Try reading one of them.
Your comment makes it seem that the Bible contains only one or two facts and only a few instances of proofs for what it says. Actually there are many.
Research, discover the truth for yourself. Until you do the research, why say what may or may not be true?
I'll agree that there are those out there who will do exactly just as your moth frothing display did. They will take one fact out of context and not look at all the facts.
I agree with another post I saw that pictures are not enough. Pictures will only show that someone built a boat and stuck it in a strange place. But if more evidence is gathered (DNA, examination of the structure, wood samples, or dating) then it may be something worth adding to all the other evidence supporting the Bible.
Oh, by the way, the Bible isn't the only account of the flood. There are others.

I think I am learning, thanks.

Just a know nothing, nobody with questions.
