    Savage? all I have to say is, that game rocked :)

  2. Re:Throughput, Expansion Slots, Network Size, Mark on OpenBSD Project Announces OpenBGPD · · Score: 2, Informative

    there's always 8x PCI-E for transfering lots of data. That'd give you 20 Gbit in each direction. 16x PCI-E NICs and even 32x PCI-E NICs should be available in a not so distant future.

    $0.15? here most house owners pay $0.07 per kWh, and companies and schools get lower prices as they buy high volume, but assuming $0.07/kWh, that'd bring the price down to $420,000/year.

    oh sorry, disregard the parent statement. But afaik China is not just "on the list", they are ratifying it too, I'm not sure if they are in the process of ratifying it or if the ratification process is complete however.

    Being on the list is not the same as ratifying it, hence why I consistently used "ratified" in my parent post.

    Yes, lets remove the minimum wage in the US too, and turn the low educated workers into slaves, and lets abolish democracy while we're at it, that'll be good for productivity too.

  7. Amazing on U.S. Continues Opposition to Kyoto Environmental Treaty · · Score: 3, Insightful

    I find it very sad that USA still refuses to ratify the Kyoto treaty. Even Russia managed to ratify it recently. I think it's time for USA to take responsibility for all the global pollution it causes and admit the long term consequences. But I guess it's too much to ask of the "land of the free" to try to deal with the problem in a sensible way instead of ignoring it.

    Link works fine here.

  9. Re:And? on Water Cooling With A Car Radiator · · Score: 2, Interesting

    Yes, and back in the old days this was the most common way to watercool their system. The overclockers would make their own waterblocks, get some hoses and a pump from a local aquarium or gardening shop and they'd go to the nearest scrapyard to get a good car radiator. Back then this would also generally turn out cheaper than going for high-end aircooling, not so anymore however. These days all and everyone just go to the nearest computer enthusiast shop and get a waterblock, a pump and hoses and an overpriced mass produced radiator.

  10. Re:Greater reliability? on Microsoft Just Wants a Little Look · · Score: 1

    you can make a md5sum of the original CD and then do a md5sum of the "copy", and if the two match, it's the same cd with no trojans or viruses.
