It probably won't work that way at all. This could be more of an additive thing.
For example, say you have a boat powered by 393 horsepower engine and a 484 horsepower engine. If you run them both at the same time, the net power is not going to be 439hp.
Software+hardware won't add in nearly the same way, but I wouldn't be surprised if a hybrid approach was %50 faster than either method alone.
Change your firmware to DD-WRT (I use it, great stuff) and you now have direct access to iptables and can follow that part of the article. To do the upside-down stuff you'd need a separate server.
You've obviously never used both Elements and Gimp to a significant degree. I'd say Gimp is on par with Elements right now as capable image editors, while full-fledged CS2 reigns for professional graphics automation and print creation. Add to this the fact that most $99-$199 graphics tablets come with Elements at no (visible) extra charge.
I used both Gimp and Elements interchangeably for a few years, doing full resolution CG work on a tight budget. If anything Elements has a few features Gimp doesn't. Yes, Gimp COULD have more, but until Vista comes out no one knows how to install vaporware.
I am a huge fan of Gimp, combined with Inkscape you can do almost anything. However it's best suited to one-off creations rather than the consistent workflow and formalized processes a professional studio demands. Something Gimp, again, COULD offer...but it doesn't, so you can't count that no matter how much you want the Gimp to win.
Lithium-Ion batteries are always kept partially charged, as they last longer this way and it can be dangerous to attempt charging a battery under a certain voltage. So a laptop battery contains a significant amount of stored energy, meaning any internal short from stress, damage, or manufacturing defect could easily result in fire. It's not really spontaneous, or any big mystery.
I'd agree with you, the first couple winters of the mussel invasion of Green Bay we had massive beaches (6 feet high drifts for 30 feet out) of dead and rotting mussels. But before that we had a lot of big freshwater clams...which are now gone. To me it looks like the mussels killed off the native clams, then died down to a level equivalent to the original clams somehow, either by body volume or nutrition requirements. The mussels are still there and will cut your feet if you swim barefoot. The water is also much clearer and the familiar giant mats of green muck are gone. Fish still seem to be around, but I never fished and don't know if it's worse. Overall it did improve the bay for boating and shore activities...it used to be a browny-green opaque soup but now it's sparkling blue.
Why inform the rest of us? What possible purpose could there be other than to try to make some point that Nintendo doesn't care about people with limited mobility?
My point is that no one is stopping you from whining that the Wii isn't handicapped-accessible, but part of the fact and tragedy of being handicapped is that you can't do things the same way other people can. There's no call to get in a huff because products exist that are aimed at the larger market, people who can use all of their functions. You should be used to this by now, instead of trying to make other people feel bad that they are able to have fun in a way that someone else cannot.
Regarding engines that "burn water" by performing electrolysis on demand: anyone who believes this would work is severely lacking in basic scientific knowledge and moreover is mentally retarded. When you combine oxygen and hydrogen, you get water and energy. When you split water into oxygen and hydrogen, you expend energy. The energy amount is the same, not counting losses in your electrolysis machine and combustion engine, which will be significant.
An engine that was self-sustaining on water would be a perpetual motion machine just by running itself, let alone producing over-unity energy.

That carousel is slot-load, auto-eject. It appears to eject the CD pretty far...far enough, in fact, to successfully insert a CD into a slot-loading CD/DVD-ROM drive if the slots were lined up carefully. And when you clicked "Eject" on the slot-load drive, it would slide into the carousel slot and be pulled back inside.
Voila. A totally hands-free 100 disc ROM jukebox for about $200.
Data files should not have the ability to contain code
They don't. That's why viruses exploit buffer overflows and other vulnerabilities. It's not like a document format designer was thinking one day, "I should make this contain executable code!"
As long as certain groups stand to profit, and as long as certain people might look like idiots if proven wrong, the debate on this topic will never end. I'm talking about people on either side of the issue. The tough part is that global warming is difficult to prove either positively or negatively, so it's a prime vehicle for unrelated agendas.
My first reaction was to laugh and think about all the nForce motherboards out there, but ATI has done some very interesting things with AMD chipsets recently.
One thing is for sure: when Intel, AMD, Nvidia, and ATI fight, we customers win.
No kidding, my living expenses (meaning, the money I have to spend each month to stay housed, fed, taxed, insured, and transported...no luxuries) come up to about 75% of my income.
Even with commercially available super/ultracaps, you would need a volume of approximately one GALLON to equal the energy capacity of one AA battery. If this nanotube capacitor can even equal half the energy density of a chemical battery, then it most certainly is news.
100% agreement here, move the Read More link back to where it was. On my 22" monitor I have to move at least 12 inches to get from the sidebar to the Read More link.
Slashdot is a site that should be praising developments in technical ability, not slightly overdesigned monitors that suck in actual usage.
ScuttleMonkey, you can get away with this shit, but that doesn't mean we are going to eat it. I gradually get to the point of almost subscribing, and then another stunt like this comes along.

She pulls them out of... you know, I'm not even going to go there.
And I'm sure you never have.

...What will be the new benchmarking standard?
I have an idea: Benchmarks.

That was a dream. The fact that you were only wearing underwear should have been a clue.
There's probably a simpler explanation for this, but everyone's thinking like free worlders here.
The truth is that living in China sucks so much, the perfect fantasy of WoW is that much more alluring.

I wonder if we're considered part of the sandwich...maybe we're just the ants ruining this cosmic picnic.
Your problem is thinking that a T1 is your only option, when in fact satellite service exists for a fifth of the price.
You know....hmmm.
