Actually, this issue is important for a media server. A media server will want lots of disk storage, a fast processor, and a trick video card that probably needs a fan, too. Because a media server will likely be in the room with the video display, it needs to be as quiet as you an manage.
Big (120mm) fans, controllable CPU fan, quiet case, and Segate Barracuda hard disk drives. 7200.7 My next computer build will use a laptop processor because they run so much cooler.
I just finished reading the book. I found it to be quite interesting and enlightening. If the reviewer thought that the author of Blink didn't go into enough detail about the research cited in the book, perhaps that's because it would have made the book too dry and much too large.
I recommend reading it.
Interesting that you would pick the number of years as 15 to describe the past. Let's pick the number 24 and see what happens. 2/3 Republican.
But that's not my real worry about you. You seem to want to;
Justify the Vietnam war, overthrow the constitution of the United States (free speech, freedom of assembly, etc), politicize what should be scientific research. Sounds like a Republican. Oh, by the way, anti-extremeist right wing does not equal liberal Democrat.
How about a little guy (gal) in a hard hat and overalls and boots and work gloves. Some kind of tool in one hand. Sort of reflective of the blue-collar ethic of the goals of that operating system.
Carly was hired by the Board of Directors. If something went wrong let's be sure we understand where the fault lies; the fault belongs with the BoD.
The next question is, why does it take so long for the BoD to act? When someone can explain that, I'll be listening.
If you want to blame a person, perhaps that person is Dick Hackborn. As I understand it, Carly was Dick's project. So, along with Carly, perhaps Dick Hackborn needs to resign/retire/be fired.
As for why was Carly hired; She rose up with the dot.com bubble and she seemed to be a genius. It's too bad the BoD didn't wait to act until a point after the bubble had burst. At that point, Carly's 'accomplishments' wouldn't have looked so good. Too bad.
If Mars were terraformed and settled, wouldn't that lead to political strife? Talk about an 'us' and a 'them'. Who gets to settle Mars? Who decides on immigration policy, the US? The UN? Who is the police? What are the police powers derived from?
I think we need to get affairs on Earth straightened out first.
Come on, have you even read some of the comments.
NOBODY IS BASHING BILL EXCEPT THE BBC.
Get a grip. Everybody here seems to be completely dismissive of the report.
I regard the government of China as being in a situation like Iraq and Afganistan; democracy won't work there.
So, 'freedom of speech' is not a viable concept. The Chinese have to be careful about what they allow or chaos will result. Example, they were on a path to overpopulation until their government imposed some rules.
I'm sure this will start a bitter debate, but I think the Chinese should not be interfered with, especially not the way we destabilized Iraq.

Although this is the same type of advice I've been giving my co-workers, I've never heard it put so well. Thanks.

What Symb said, a crotchety old man. White beard, glasses, long hair, scowl on face. I know a guy who could model for this. It's perfect.

Gates equated the ever-increasing open source movement to communism. Since Windows is a monopoly, would it be fair to equate Windows to Fascism?
How about towing one of the ice moons of Jupiter and using it to; add water to Mars, crash it into Mars to add some spin.

I hear what you're saying, but not all democracies had a violent beginning. And if we're so big on democracy, why is Saudi Arabia not democratic?

I don't get it. Is this a troll?
Maintain a point-of-view of 'what's in it for me'. Know that the people who report to you are ultimately doing the same.
So the Beast (Gummint) can get access to your mail, but your family can't. Surely this is another sign of the End Times.
