Don't feel bad. On the day I was appointed as an assistant lead for a video game title, management decided to kill the title. I didn't find out until I saw a news item posted on an industry gossip website a month later. The QA manager didn't know. No wonder the new build was late.
I want a $50 processor and a $50 motherboard, which I can easily do with the 1150 chipset. For the 1151 chipset, it's $300+. Of course, that doesn't include memory. Motherboards that uses a newer processor with DDR3 memory, or an older processor with DDR4 memory, cost $150. I might have to go with a transitional motherboard in the near future to bridge price gap.
You seemed to miss my point entirely. You wrote 100 incidents involving the bomb, I gave you 500+ incidents from atmospheric testing of the bomb. Your point is invalid. The only public idiocy is your own.
I had a generic home DSL modem that went up in smoke. Neither the carrier nor the manufacturer would bother to fix it, pointing to the other party as responsible. The carrier did give me a discount when I bought a business-class DSL modem that was more reliable.
U.S. and Russia conducted 500+ atmospheric tests after World War II, exposing thousands of civilians and soldiers to radiation poisoning as it wasn't well understood in the early days. Many died from cancer, sooner or later. I think 500+ is larger than 100.
Besides the bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, the atmospheric testing in the South Pacific and Nevada, the nuclear submarine incidents of the Cold War, and the various mishaps at civilian nuclear reactors? That's more than 100.
I lived in my studio apartment for ten years. For the last five years I was told by the leasing office to get rental insurance because it was "the law," but they could never cite the actual law for me to verify and then told me that rental insurance was nice to have. This year the leasing office changed the rental contract to require proof of rental insurance. But they really insisted on using their rental insurance company owned by the leasing office corporation. Since most people don't use their insurance policy, the corporate office could make an extra $32,000 per month in income if all the residents signed up with them. This isn't the first nickel-and-dime scheme that the corporate office tried to implement.
The corporate office got upset that many residents had AAA as their insurance carrier and AAA disallowed the corporate office from being listed as a "party of interest" on the policy, which would allow the corporate office to drain the AAA policy before the insurance policy for the apartment complex kicked in. They also backed off the threat of evicting tenants who couldn't get them listed on their insurance policy. Evicting that many AAA members would cause a public scandal and diminished the "luxury" value — new exterior paint and landscaping — of their properties.
It's for people who want the THIS IS HEALTHY label on the box, who aren't going to check the ingredient list to verify that its healthy, and think what they're eating is healthy. IAfter all, the label can't be wrong.
Government can force you to buy a contract from a private insurance company that you normally would not purchase
If you think that's bad, I'm required to show proof of rental insurance every year for the apartment I rent. A corporate entity is forcing me to buy insurance that I don't want to buy! OUTRAGEOUS!
It's a people problem when an adult leaves a loaded gun unattended in the presence of children. Unless the adult is practicing gun safety, everyone is in danger of an accidental shooting.
I did that for a while as a teenager until my best friend and his friends broke into one of the Radio Shack store. They used a glass cutter to cut the glass out from the frame at ground level without setting off the alarm. Two were skinny enough to crawl through. The third was too fat and used the glass to cut an opening to unlock the front doors. Needless to say, the cops were waiting for them when they came out. Although I had nothing to do with the heist (except die from laughter when I heard the details), I was no longer welcomed at that store.
Radio Shack is currently in bankruptcy proceedings. Most stores were closed. The remaining thousand or so stores are partnering with Sprint. Radio Shack as website portal may come back someday.
The Radio Shack that the summary is referring to is your granddaddy's Radio Shack, where overpriced electronic parts, kits and tools were available just around the corner. If you had a battery card, you could pick up a free 9-volt battery every month for your transistor radio.

No one ever got fired for using C.
In this particular case the 6500 is a fixed 3.2 GHz
IIRC, the 6502 in my Commodore 64 was fixed at 1MHz. Nice to see old tech getting a much need speed boost! :P

These days its probably Python as the programming language.
Having your drone walk the dog and not pick up the dog poop in the park isn't polite.
NASA was buying Intel 486 processors for the space shuttles from eBay.

Never mind that no code was involved with that murder.

It's not like I am going to read about Linux kernel mods on Salon.com.
Unless Linus Torvalds murders someone in the kernel dev forum for misplacing a semicolon in a mod..

In short, they're reinventing the Tofu burger.
I've always wondered why some politicians advocate that we should armed kindergarten teachers with guns. Now we know.

I thought the title read: "Klingon Conflict Resolved At Last"
I see what you did there.

Only a prick would go there.
