I had always assumed that foreign students were charged dearly for attending - is that not the case?
Meanwhile, they learn the local language and culture
Maybe things have changed since I was in school, but this mostly wasn't the case in my experience. The Korean students pretty much clumped together and were insular, etc.
The reverse is also true: US students will learn that there are people outside the US with different cultures and beliefs to their own and that, if they want to do business with them, they will need to take this into account
My experience was that given the abovedescribed tendencies, interaction was largely limited to two scenarios:
A) Being stuck in a recitation led by a TA who we couldn't understand
B) Any vagina in a storm, if you get my drift
MP3-files are small enough to be streamable perfectly well even on really slow connections, but video files ain't small. A 2-hour, 1080p video file[/quote]
Point taken, but of course almost nobody provides 1080 content.
Apparently you don't remember it, but at one time, MP3 files weren't small either. I remember it taking about an hour to download a good quality MP3.
Via PSTN dialup?
And there was streaming, too. Things like Real Player provided lower quality, higher compressed versions that were more suitable for streaming. Then do you know what happened next? Did Real Player and stuff like it win out? Nope.
... partly because the Real software sucked really hard and failed to deliver what it promised. Instead of "streaming" we got interminable "buffering..." messages punctuated every 20 seconds with a brief snippet of actual playback. And then Real removed features from the player so that existing.rm files wouldn't play with later versions of the software.
i gotta call bullshit on that last part. i don't see it resolving itself anytime soon. internet speeds have remained stagnant over the last decade, without increased infrastructure or the internet providers stopping throttling, nothing will change
Don't equate low-end last-mile residential providers with "internet providers". Trust me, real provider speeds have increased substantially over the last decade. Residential speeds have too, but part of why we see no widespread efforts to bring even faster connections to homes these days is that most customers in areas that can get at least *DSL already have more speed than they know what to do with.
HP's servers are a great product, not , with the Gen 8 product line and iLO4. The serial console finally works out of the box, and no longer flips to 115200bps when you PXE boot. The HBA's finally do 3-way mirrors. iLO4 is finally fast enough to use, though the lack of a working system console when SSH'd in is annoying, as is the anachronistic DB9 console connector.
I bought a single one for home use based on a couple of recommendations. My wife's Macbook Air, Kindle Fire, and iPhone randomly drop the connection. This didn't happen with our older Airport Express.
You get to fly first class? Lucky you. I've given up trying to use a laptop in coach - no room for a tolerable arm/hand angle for typing or reasonable head angle, and too much risk for the jackass in front of me reclining with no notice and snapping my display.
Gmail however doesn't support IMAP properly. Operations will randomly fail, I can't remove more than a few dozen messages at once, and it doesn't have a standard folder model. I don't want all of my mail kept forever, really I don't, and I really do want a single Trash folder among interfaces. REally.
My area isn't included and I don't have LOS to anywhere without a mast on the roof. Not that I expect this to ever be completed and working.
Comcast residential has hosed me elsewhere in the past but the *business class* service has worked well for 4.5 years.

Replacing those screens with a web site would save more power yet. Little wonder tuition is astronomical today with extravagances like this.
How important is sound on a rackmount server ???

That's terrific for *both* users!
Christianity has no such policies because Christianity is an umbrella term.

The Japanese would then make a tourist attraction of it. cf. Taiji.

This is known as bias lighting in the home theater market, but I'm curious how you'd expect someone to "install" LED's on the back of a monitor.
That was my first thought as well. Then how utility will be limited by latency and lagging.
Google is using masses of custom software on their custom hardware. They are only able to do this because of their scale.
Plus the headline is wrong -- the article describes a diesel-like product, not a gasoline replacement, so real-world impact would be limited.

I wrote the "Office of Annual Giving" recently asking how much they were going to give me. They have not responded.

Easier yet is to stop eating animals. Have you done that?
