Sure it's anecdotal, but I've heard and read more news stories from the Tevatron than the LHC in the past two years (if you ignore the non-science "This and That Broken!" news pieces). It's grievous; don't begrudge our actually grieving it.
And nobody on the sub engineering team thought, "hey, maybe we should add a ballast balloon that floats it to the surface if it loses all contact with the surface." Wow.
I'd like to see an analysis of the instances quoted.
Ab-so-lutely. And frankly, I'll be more inclined to dive into said analysis when I can go to RTFA for its info, and not find it taking the form of a complaint--a whiny complaint containing heavy injections of prejudice in its own right, a la srlinuxx: "I accepted that's just the way men are. They've always been that way and they always would."
I get nearly 2X the speed of a single drive that is limited by SATA. Theoretically, that might not be the same thing but for all *PRACTICAL* purposes, it gets around the bottleneck just fine for me:-)
Yep, doubling your bus count usually doubles your transfer speed. *rolling eyes*
Exactly. Plus maybe we *will* soon want ethernet to our displays, proper. The end of this summary immediately popped to mind. They're just being forward-thinking and people are complaining?
The US Air Force got pilots to identify a plane in a pic flashed up for a fraction of a second. The fraction where it dropped below 90% accuracy was 1/220th of a second. Also, if you reverse your test and flash white on a black wall, for most people the fraction of a second to see that the flash occurred is in the order of ten-thousandths of a second.
Reading comprehension people. Just garbage-picking construction debris for fun and profit. If you're going to "roadside-recycle," industrial waste is where it's at.
Sigh. It's an even-less-powerful a statement than your correction--rather: "The love of money is the root of all kinds of evil." (italics mine) Oh, and it's not a 'saying' in the normal sense; its a passage from the Bible, he he.
The only thing I'm missing is 64-channel Dobly Digital, which I'll give up any day just to sit in a theatre full of people who are there to watch a movie and not sit and IM all night.
Couldn't agree with you more about the cell phones, but wtf is 64-channel Dolby Digital? That sounds awesome!
Just as an anecdotal data point, I requested coupons the day after the last/. article about their running out. I got them in the mail last week. I'm guessing you were asking rhetorically, but just in case; folks who couldn't wait are boned.
So why, oh, why didn't somebody point a fleet of telescopes at the expected collision/spread area and get us some of the best news-as-it-happens, stuff that matters, scientifically-useful video footage ever!?!slash! In all seriousness though, getting video of these events seems a no-brainer good idea. A shame as this one sounds like it was spectacular. I suppose at this rate there's always next time. and the time after that. and...
Also has a bad summary (par?) and even has "I did my job though, and you clicked on the headline" quoted in the summary. C'mon... how do you miss an editing layup like that?

Careful, this is NY were are talking about.
Was the helicopter over 16oz?
I'd stop and frisk the helicopter to check, but it's a white helicopter and I've suddenly lost interest.
Mac Minis; Blu-Ray drives: no. USB ports: yes.
just sayin'
Go through his clothes and look for loose change.

yep, this is flamebait, rightly modded. who's idea was it to post a story with 'flamewar' in the summary to anything other than Idle? *sigh*
Yep. Yep he does.

Technology for a longer life; poop standing up.
[Should probably be posting this anon, what with that whole immutable internet legacy. Oops.]

Um, projectionists usually sit in the booth, not in the seats.

"The Hammer" ...Maybe that can be your nickname in federal pound-me-in-the-ass prison. article
Huh... the way you phrase it, it doesn't sound news-worthy.
