I don't in fact have a miss-focused projector, speakers blown out by 10,000 high volume showings of 'blowed up real good' films, seats full of loud talking ass hats and 16+ screens packed so close together you hear the loud parts of neighboring films.
I do in fact have a decent HD screen and non-blown speakers that are 99% as good as any. That last 1% is REAL expensive.
Do you understand anything about 'glitching' a CPU?
I know a tiny bit. Someone I know, (yeah that's it), used to get free TV off 18 inch dish systems.
To do this you usually needed a smart card to MITM and an old computer. The problem was there was a limited supply of smart cards and the dish companies had run a long term campaign to brick the cards, which had, for a time, simply been reprogrammed. Bricked (generically called 'Black Sunday') cards were cheap. Anyhow enough background about my associate.
To glitch a smartcard, you counted the CPU cycles from dropping reset until it hit the few known places where the CPU essentially (BNE addinfloop)ed. That's a two cycle operation, the second half being (Program Counter) PC = addinfloop. On that cycle you run the CPU clock at 8 or 16 times normal. PC doesn't latch and the code drops through. Alternative 'glitches' known to anyone curious enough to read the scripts they ran were dropping voltage or some combination of voltage drop and cpu cycle multiplier.
Of course there are countermeasures, which the hardware crypto guys are well aware of. No external clocks, internal caps on Vcc. Which in turn have their own counters, usually involving X-rays, tiny drill bits and many destroyed devices. Counters to that are 3d structures, putting vital hardware right above and below the targets. Which just means someone has to build a copy of the vital hardware and hook that up before going for the clock generator. Ultimately the reset to branch timing method is borked with a bit of random delay, but there are other ways. There are always other ways.
All the smart-card methods have semiconductor analogs. The NSA has the biggest budget for such shenanigans, but there are many players.
For any hardware long key storing device you can bet that the probability of succeeding in a crack is a function of time on market and # sold. That probability likely never makes 100% except in trivial cases.
Went to hell when the airbase closed. Still not quite Rio Linda bad. Further north, less tweak infested. Right off 80 and Watt is kind of hairy, open stroll for years. Kind of cleaned up lately, but really just pushed off street. Everything has shifted in the last 10. H is much more common, as are flat out junkies. Tweak is the same as always.
I guess what I'm saying is expect to re-calibrate. On the upside, there are some really cheap rents and if you are half stable, the landlord will love you.
Back in the 80s 3M hired 100 engineers from CA and tracked them. At the end of the second winter, they had one left, he was from the tundra to begin with.
The quickest way to get evicted is to bring a gun into the discussion. TRO the next day, requiring you to stay 200 meters away from the landlord and his property.
That's assuming the landlord doesn't just shoot you.
They can and do put the property under professional property management and rent it out. The Chinese are not stupid, at least those that gathered capital and have the sense to put it offshore aren't stupid.
Check your dates. The 40 year old cars are great, pre-smog so grandfathered. What we want off the roads are the 30-35 year old cars. Those were bad years. Few exceptions.
These old designs containments appear to have worked. They had to have made a sufficiently wide and shallow pool of corium.
Engineers will learn a lot from taking these 3 reactors apart. TEPCO should not be directly involved. It's too important for 'face' to matter. They all 3 appear to have reached full tilt melt down and the containment did it's job. Doesn't change that the water solubles are gone or in solution in a tank, cooling went open system on melted core.
Minimum cook time on a side is the time it takes for the meat to seer and release from a screaming hot grill/grill pan.
The way most T-bones are cut, the release flip leaves you at about medium.
You're just wrong about most beef. Ground beef needs to be cooked. But any solid chunks of beef are fine to eat raw. As long as it's fresh and you seer the surface.
I do make a point of buying the slaughter house vacuum packs. But that's because of the minimum wage scumbags that work at the local groceries.
If spreadsheets where going to put devs out of work, it would have happened 20+ years ago. In practice, it creates work for devs. Not good work, but everybody has to start somewhere. Untangling a MBA mess is as good a place as anywhere.

At least he didn't start inserting scenes from the upcoming video games into the LoTR movies. Those had to wait for 'The Hobbit' films.
Some theaters are better than others.

None of the editors are members...
There used to be a FA reader that was in the habit of posting when he finished reading. To mark all the people just racing for karma.
FA reader. I told him to GTF out.

Just the market routing around a stupid law. I approve.
Elevated bridges would allow the worker to huck a loogie onto the scum when running for Starbucks. Much better than tunnels.
Exactly. I'm just waiting for SF to have a Republican mayor. I'll LMAO.
So you do support the landlords getting market rent! I'm a little surprised.
A feeling that is completely mutual.
If you move to sac, make sure you live downtown. It is where you will fit in.
See Charlie Rangle. Rent control breaks markets.
I believe that price was from LA. Which is a huge sprawl. The analogous house 'in Sydney' could be just over the S. Australian border.
Also recall that 1$AUS = 0.76$US and 450sq foot = 50 sq meters.
Just move to a new suite every day, duh.
You don't even have to flush the toilet. seepage will have cleared it before your at that crapper again.
Stop it, I'm laughing so hard the dog is looking at me funny.
There is no accounting for taste.

That has to be something stronger than pot. PCP?

We should find our Latin teachers and kick them square in the nuts.
I still remember how those books burned...what a waste of time. Python did it best.
I've got my jammer hooked to a 1kw linear and have half a leafs worth of batteries, all disguised as an airplane roll-on bag.
The huge wheels give it away, that and the molly steel frame.
Think I'm going to roll my own 'stingray' next. The US federal government is, more or less, on Verizon for insecure comms? Gotta pick my frequencies.
Kidding feds. I know, I know: 'Not funny, no clearance for you.'

I suppose he (singular) won't need to hire devs.
