"For example, you can't have each of the cars on a busy highway get individualized, personal audio streams simultaneously."
Do you even know what an MP3 player does? It's a purpose device that allows you a personalized, individualized audio stream. Many of them work with cars, some just require a simple adapter.
Now, if all of them needed to use an FM transmitter, you might have a point. But bluetooth? Fuck no, you could have every car on the road loaded with BT and as long as they followed power limits there should be pretty much no issues. Well, excepting the fact BT audio sounds like garbage.
Dude, we had video webcam chats back in 1998. We were streaming multiple isochronous streams back then (Yahoo! Chat, anyone? Paltalk? Camfrog later on in 2003?)
The original Metal Gear Solid PC will not work with OpenGL rendering on modern systems. You can use software rendering but you're stuck with 320x240 resolution. Why? It uses 8-bit OpenGL rendering. 8-bit driver support was removed from nVidia GPUs some time in either the FX series or 6000 series of GeForce product.
So, guess what system runs it? An XP system with a Geforce 4 series card.
You can thank the GPU makers for that one. Now you have Steam to thank for a whole new slew of similar fuckups.
"Cryptocurrency has some value in the fact that it has an immutable"
That was proven bullshit very recently, too, when Vitalik reversed some transaction for some company that mistakenly dumped a bunch of ether. Immutability is BULLSHIT.
Meanwhile, you don't see that happening for anyone that was trying to figure out the convoluted system and lost ether by mistake. Nope. Fuck the small person.
Investing is speculating, or more appropriately hypothesizing since you're working with available evidence instead of just making a guess out of thin air.
"There have been multiple larger events where values dropped precipitously without definable causes."
Anyone that actually watched the buy/sell/hold orders during those times knew exactly what was going on - pumping and dumping from China and South Korea.
If the IT dept had half a brain, they'd have had a fully-homogenous hardware set for their desktops, and one for their servers, and thus there would only be two system images they'd need to deploy, reconfigure, and bring back online.
But then again, this is the financial industry we're talking about. IT Department with brains? Only if they have yet to be hamstrung by management.
You don't understand the speed at which these things happen on smaller blockchains. They happen fast enough for most people to simply not notice until far too late. By then, the attacker has gotten the money, made the exchange out to hard currency, and is out.
Everyone can safely ignore this coward's ass. He won't give his address because he knows he'll be killed the moment he does. Someone give me his address, I'll be sure to end his sanity and make him take his own life.
He is a little bitch coward. Cowards and their software are to NEVER BE TRUSTED, like Facebook, Google, and many other cowardly big corps. It doesn't matter your size, if you are a weaselly, lying, shilling, spamming, threatening, COWARDLY FUCKING WASTE OF HUMAN SKIN, you are to not be trusted, nor anything you are associated with.
The reason the wal-mart knockoff didn't work despite having the same concentration of glyphosate is that it likely didn't have the same surfactants which make the glyphosate effective in the first place.
"Lol, really, that's an even more obvious trick, since you can trivially see that you are teleporting simply by watching the map."
Again, I can tell you don't (and haven't) played, because watching the automap will not tell you - it looks exactly as if everything is going over everything else.
But you have no clue how real vertical hacks work, so I'll let you keep floundering. Meanwhile, I need to gimp Sonic in the jail room. Too many insta-death rings spawn on hit.
How the fuck do you think I figured out how it's being done? It's not being done by any sort of raised platform, AT ALL. I'VE CHECKED THE ENTIRE WAD.
I'll give you a protip - teleports.
Did you know there's no actual second weapon slot for the super shotgun in the engine for DoomII? That little bug opened up the doors for a future mod - complex doom with nearly 100 accessible weapons.
Source: I'm a current beta tester for the invasion mode of complex doom. I know lots more about these little engine hacks than you probably do, because I'm an actual code contributer.
And I can tell you've never touched the Zandronum engine (because it still needs all that data and info from the actual DOOM/II WAD file to work otherwise it would work standalone with many other WAD files,) let alone actually played Doom or any real mods for it, because several WADs out before modern engine ports did exactly what BUILD did, in a different manner (Alien Vendetta is one such WAD, which did hall over hall in pyramids, with crossover sections) on just the plain DOOM engine.
Actually, yes it could with some level-building trickery, and an old WAD called Alien Vendetta did it for its pyramid level before any of the engine ports came around with the ability to allow faux or real vertical stacking in level design.
Slashdot Mirror
it's less about what caliber, and more about the amount of powder behind the projectile.
FTFY.

Slashdot is now apparently just siphoning off HN's front page, just about half a day late.
Might as well read HN (but never comment there, because their moderation system blows more goats than Reddit and Voat combined.)

Guess the downmodders are too stupid to understand the Shannon-Hartley Theorem.
"Really? Your USB 1.1 cables have the extra pins necessary for USB 3.0 speeds?"
You can shove gigabits down a single pair of wires. Learn how to do signal differentiation, n00b.
I've had very little problems getting USB 2.0 or 3.0 speeds over most USB 1.1 cables under 6 feet in length.
No, but the extra mass in Mississippi more than makes up for it. :)
Or are we still only doing this for the big players only, you fucking fraud?

Give a woman a really pretty tulip, you might get laid. Perhaps if you left your desk and went outside, you'd know this.

"My whole point is they aren't alike but neck beards like yourself always bring up the tulip market when bitcoins are mentioned."
Meanwhile, those of us with actual stock market experience AND those that possess knowledge of history know that they are very, very much alike.
People like you who don't see the similarities are the reason for its proliferation.
Crash != making the systems 100% unusable.

Well, yea, until I can get some nitric acid to strip the gold off these bitches.
