It took 20-25 minutes for me and so often they would fail. It was a real blessing when they brought in the resume functionality. My computer was hardly able to play a MP3, had to stop everything else and fire up Ye Olde Resource Intensive MP3 Player Application. 133MHz Pentium 1 and a 56k modem with a 25 pin RS-232 cable
Least efficient way of making the stuff. The tractors burn more diesel harvesting the stuff than the energy it will produce. Greenwashing at its finest. There are better ways of producing ethanol like from legitimate byproducts with the help of industrial waste heat but that's not what they're doing in the USA. Far too many people on the ethanol subsidy gravy train over there.
People who do gaming have widescreen TV's and monitors now. The days of teenagers gaming on tiny screens are over now. If they are looking at tiny screens its because they're busy cyberbullying their peers,not gaming. Too little too late.
Boring designs, doesn't look like anything special,only one that caught my eye was the metal tube 'd-frame' design. Most of them are generic enough looking huge ATX towers. Still I wouldn't want to let someone into my house and tell them 'yea dude, like I spend $400 on a fucking case for a computer'. Now if I made a similar case myself out of metal tubes for my own mini-itx machine, that is something I could be proud of. Splashing out on a mass produced case like that from Taiwan is nothing but shameless excess like you would have seen in Celtic tiger Ireland.
Is there any other place to get Barium besides China? These chinese fcukers are starting to realise how much the West depends on their cheap products and are throwing their weight around a lot in recent times
Just show them Back Door Sluts 9, show them how it's done. Theyll see it eventually anyway so its better that they'd see it in a controlled environment. I saw the 'bad' stuff when i was just a wee boy as well, never did me any harm did it?
This nonsense of 'not showing the R-rated' stuff is mostly just to console the parents really. They knew they were wrong when they allowed a child to be born into this harsh and cruel world and would rather the child think that things are rosy for another couple of years until it is absolutely impossible to keep up the lie any longer.
As people abandon Microsoft operating systems and at the very least abandon paid versions of pre-loaded McAfee crapware to protect the said OS. That and McAfee's possibly murderous past might catch up with him yet..
Air travel requires an absolute shitload of fuel, which is fast running out. Trains can run on whatever renewable source of grid power is available at the time
Just had a look at TFA and begorrah this stuff is dire. A pet tracker with a fuppin subscription fee, a few lousy Bluetooth gadgets from China, a board game, a dead boring run of the mill USB battery charger extender pack. Real ground breaking stuff:)
I'm tired of what's been going on pretty much since the IC was invented. Intel is king and has a stockpile of 30 years worth of technology that it can put into production at relatively short notice.
Each time someone like AMD turns up the heat on Intel they say "No, lets skip this box of technology we made ready for ourselves back in the day and move straight onto the next one, no harm done." then when the competition is stumbling they say "We'll see how long we can get away with selling the current stuff, then we'll open the next box and sell it way overpriced". Fcuk it Intel probably have the processors that are 'coming out' in 2017 already laying on a shelf in a warehouse somewhere by the millions.
Slashdot Mirror
MS are probably providing it for free or half nothing to get their name stuck to such an interesting cool 'rebellious' project
I do anyway! Assume most do unless they were malnourished growing up

Does this format have and built in DRM (pronounced 'Dhurum") or other nasties?
Sure it could probably be done with 1800's steam technology. Didn't Doc Brown have one for his eggs and toast in the morning?

If that was the case Apple would never have sold a single iPhone
I'll get my coat..

Charity - far from it, more like milking us for what we're worth and hell bent on taking over the world. See "Chinese century"

I always knew Google were a sneeky shower of bastards.
I want! Imagine a mesh network of these, put the evil telco's out of business :)
If I had known this existed I might just have been tempted to get an iPhone. I just don't do paid software.
Lekker gezond!
Back when UEFI came out people were saying how things weren't so bad. Now MS has done exactly what 'tinfoil hat wearing alarmists' said they would.
Next time, "things will be alright"-folk, dont tell us we didn't tole you!

They must have learnt this trick from the neighbours

Would have been better use. At least that way a homeless person or a sewage worker might find some of it.
Yes it probably my own uninformed tinfoil hat conspiracy but I'm glad the kind folk of Slashdot are willing to debunk it for me

Pity Eamon Gilmore and his lower ranking party pee-on Sean Sherlock don't understand this
