100% of the system is read only? I assume you are using a ramdrive or something like that for tmp files and the like? I don't know shit about windows, but I don't think it's going to run without any kind of writable space.
OTOH, if you want a simple solution to this issue, and the system is read-only, I think your simplest antivirus solution is called "reboot".
Of course, you should be looking into running GNU/Linux in this babies. It certainly runs better on Atom than windows ever will.
The flash drive is a read only maintenance tool. The system is not read only. He wants something that he can run from the flash drive.
Additionally, such waste heat might not actually be "free" - depending on some of the implementation details.
The engine works by generating heat and then converting it to mechanical motion while dissipating that heat to a cold sink. If you don't "waste" that heat by sending it to a cold sink then the engine operates less efficiently.
Again, it depends on the details - the energy might be "free," or it might just rob the engine of power just as an alternator does. You can't get around the laws of thermodynamics, though...
I'm pretty sure BMW places these in the exhaust manifod (or elsewhere in the exhaust system) where all the heat comes from gases that are indeed waste. Indeed if this were placed within the combustion chamber or conducted heat from it than it would have a negativ impact on the efficiency of the engine. You can use novel methods to convert one form of energy to another without breaking the laws of thermodynamics.
"It's difficult to come up with a faux urine, explained NASA's Jim Lewis, the systems manager overseeing development of Orion's potty. 'That's why we depend on collections.'"
They can tell my sex, blood type, color of my eyes and hair, my favorite brand of cigarettes and my probability of being obese from a drop of my blood but they can't synthesize urine? Where there heck did things go so wrong?
Actually I'm quite sure they could synthesize it.
However, why build a cow when you can get the milk for free?
They could spent a ton of money developing synthetic urine, but even then there is no guarantee its going to behave exactly the same. Why not just use the real thing?
Only in the USA? Then how have they been doing "exactly this for years in other places"? You completely contradicted yourself and it only took two sentences.
I'd totally making the switch if it was named "Liger." It's pretty much my favorite animal. It's like a lion and a tiger mixed... bred for its skills in magic.
The gambling sites don't write worms to paste poker spam anymore than freeipods.com does. Its the people who are trying to take advantage of affiliate programs who do it.
Could someone not write something like this...
I'm not writing something like this currently, have been for awhile, and expect to continue for some time.
I play in a poker tournament by email called the World Rec.Gambling Poker Tournament. I posted an article about it before this years registration closed, but it wasn't approved.
I am surprised that it takes a headache (and an hour) for you and the parent to realize that the refresh changed back to 60. I find it very obvious as you can actually detect the slow refresh. Perhaps that is aided by fluourescent lighting.
Actually don't bother poking holes in the lid, seal it up. You'll still be able to "catch" plenty of fruit flies. The fruit flies eggs or larvae are in the banana's skin. Thats where they come from in the first place.
Either way I would still have to pay the $100. If I paid the $80, the third-party would pay the $100 on my behalf, and then collect it from me.
The alternative is a good choice if you are signing an extrememly long lease. For example, 10 years, where the additional $420 stands a chance of having a better return if invested.
Slightly off-topic but it reminds me of when I signed a lease last month. I have great credit and plenty of income to cover the bills. Instead of paying a $500 security deposit the apartment manager was trying to do my a favor by letting me pay an $80 non-refundable bond for security insurance. Basically I had to pay an $80 fee to a company that would claim any damages from me for the apartment company.
Now why would I want to pay $80 non-refundable vs $500 refundable in 12 months. When compared, the $500 is like getting an $80 return on a $420 investment.
Have you ever tried to cancel your free trial? It is nearly impossible. They tell you all the things you'll miss out on, tell you to enjoy your experience more, tell you that you don't have to cancel yet because you still have 3 weeks left in your free trial, and thats it. No cancellation. I had to call back a second time and deal with the same thing. You have to get pretty mean for them to cancel it. They must get paid a commission for every person who want to cancel that they keep signed up.
Simmons: Seriously though, why are we out here? As far as I can tell it's just a box canyon in the middle of nowhere...no way in or out.
Grif: uh huh...
Simmons: The only reason that we set up a red base here is because they have a blue base over there. And the only reason they have a blue base over there is because we have a red base over here.
Grif: Yeah, that's because we're fighting each other.
Simmons: No, no, but I mean, even if we were to pull out today and they were to come take our base they would have two bases in the middle of a box canyon. Whoop-dee-fucking-do.
They should build an escalator too. That way you could just stand and enjoy the ride, or if you're in a hurry walk fast; you can pick your own pace. The elevator would definitely be better for moving in and out, though.
I'm definitely interested in this topic. Not for any particular reason, I just find it interesting. Its on my list of things I'd like to work on, but will probably never get to.
I definitely see BOTH advantages and disadvantages to black boxes. The disadvanatages are the obvious privacy issues, and not being able to get away with speeding just because a law enforcement officer (LEO) didn't see it happen.
The advantages though mean that law enforcement officers can no longer lie about your speed, and provide a valuable defense in accidents, etc where one is wrongly accused.
I definitely dread the idea of data automatically being downloaded from my car and being charged for speeding violations, but I am pretty confident privacy advocates and lobbyists would prevent something this like.
Wow I never noticed that before. Maybe its a space saving technique... efficient web design.;) Is it possible that Firefox does it correctly and Internet Explorer just does it wrong, and it overlaps because it was designed for IE?

Its incredibly slow right now. I assume its from all the /. traffic its getting.

I doubt they would want to add hydrogen sulfide (or any other impurity for that matter) as it would cause more pollution, including acid rain.

Slashdot doesn't render correctly in Firefox? I don't see anything wrong with it.
