Dunno, but it's a much better solution than sticking the file type into the file data in *nix style. There should be a separate field in the file table, like date.
Expansion doesn't have a speed. It's a scaling. Points will separate from one another at some speed, which is just the distance times the rate of scaling.
Consider ants on a rubber sheet. It's undefined to say that the rubber sheet is expanding faster than the speed of ants. You could say the ends of the sheet are separating at faster than the speed of ants.
On an infinite sheet, if the distance is great enough, you'll be able to find points separating faster than the speed of ants, even with a small scaling factor.
I'm surprised at all this victim-blaming bullshit and this whole social darwinist attitude of "if you aren't fit to take care of yourself, you deserve to die". I wish I had mod points so I could mod half the top-rated comments in this story down. Somehow, the moderators just love this macho ranting.
Seriously, accidents will happen. This technology has the potential to save lives. It will save the lives of some fools who weren't paying attention. Do they deserve to die? It will save the lives of some people who happened to be in the way of other other fools who weren't paying attention. Assign blame how you will, but whoever is at fault, saving lives is a GOOD thing.
Buy a new screen. Laptop screens are pretty modular since the computer manufacturers don't make the screens themselves. If you are too unskilled to replace it yourself, you can always pay a repairperson.
Here is a speech by David Matas and David Kilgour (July 6, 2006) about their research that confirms that China has been using Falun Gong practitioners as organ inventory. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fkf2u1Umzi4
perhaps because the government has been persecuting, torturing, and killing them. That's a pretty good incentive to go activist. If you look back a few years, the gov't encouraged Falun Gong, and then suddenly changed it's stance.
No matter how fucked up the Falun Gong religion is, (or how fucked up you are led to believe it is), it doesn't justify what the Chinese government is doing to them.
There is a Holocaust going on, and the world isn't paying attention.
Imagine if the US gov't rounded up all Mormons and started selling their organs.
not sure why phoronix decided to include several test cases which are clearly bottlenecked by something other than the filesystem. Obviously, all 4 filesystems are gonna score the same.
If it's open source, then all countries will benefit from it. But military power is all about differential power over your enemies. So, I don't see what this is supposed to accomplish.
Obviously, that strategy only works if there were enough vegans to make a dent in the demand. Vegans have already boycotted all meat, and do try to get others to do the same. PETA is already promoting meat that grows in vats.
It wouldn't surprise me one bit if that FSF has an "'open and virulent bias against copyrights' and 'blatant bias' against record companies". Since I last heard, it's not illegal to criticize the RIAA and copyrights.

I was entertained.
Not significant? Tell me ANY entity that 1 billion euros is not significant to?
'a's not talking about some company secrets, but just saying anything bad about the company.
Where is the line?
Well, in America, you'll still get fired. You just won't be told why you got fired.
This tech would kick ass in the studio, or perhaps the theatre or practice room

Unless it's a .lnk file.
Windows pops up a dialog warning you if you try to rename the extension of a file. There shouldn't be a problem.

China. RTFM.
or they publish it themselves. Seems like they already put a lot of work into it.

At some point computers will be good enough, that it will be more work to upgrade it than it is to use it.
Probably when computers reach 640kB RAM, we won't need to upgrade anymore.
In this case, as in most, degree is more important than principle.
Am I the only one who can't seem to find the dimensions and weight in the specs?
I mean, 7in screen tells something, but how hard is it to provide full dimensions?

That's because ninjas are invisible.
