You've summed up gameplay up to the cap correctly, but the game changes drastically in hard dungeons and raids. You can argue it's still repetitive, and to some extent it is, but it's no longer as simple as soloing is.
What would be interesting is if they actually utilized the idea of the recurrence of ages as a game mechanic. Somehow have events setup that players can declare themselves to be "the dragon", and if they're successful at doing something they turn out to be the real dragon, initiating a global conflict and leading into the next age.
"That's the best part of $10,000 for just *ONE* guitar players' personal rig in an average good-quality bar/club cover band!!"
Not only would I highly doubt that the average bar/club cover band is carrying a multi-thousand dollar guitar (and amp), I doubt even more that any patron in that bar is capable of telling the difference between a a $500 and a $5000 guitar. In fact, I'm gonna go further and state that the vast majority of non-musicians probably could not tell the difference in a double-blind study.
...does that include NASCAR's amazing ability to make something that should be fantastically awesome in theory and make it something incredibly boring in practice?
1) It doesn't necessarily have to be linearly proportional. It just has to be greater than the performance we could gain by making more complex single cores. In fact, scalability is more important in some sense than efficiency (speedup/core). The most significant advantage of parallelization isn't speedups, but opportunities. It's not that you can do the same task twice as fast, it's that you can do a problem twice as large in the same amount of time.
2) It very much is, currently, a solution in search of a problem. But that doesn't mean it's not worth pursuing. It's a chicken and the egg kind of scenario. We don't have a lot of uses for a thousand cores because we dont have thousand core systems to develop useful applications for.
The ethical concerns have already been addressed. If the martians don't like our plans, they can file a formal complaint. The plans will be properly displayed for a sufficient duration in the bottom of a locked filing cabinet, stuck in a disused lavatory with a sign on the door saying 'Beware of the Leopard'.
An unsecure wireless network is NOT an invitation, and negotiating a network connection does not equate implied permission to use the network.
Did you check your email this morning? If so, did you call up Google or Yahoo or your ISP or whoever provides it and ask them if you had permission to connect to their server?
Did you call the person hosting TFA before clicking on the link asking if you had permission to access their server?
Of course not. That's preposterous. Because the nature of a computer network is DEFAULT ALLOW. If it were not, the internet as we know it today would be impossible. Quite literally, the fact that I _can_ connect to a webserver makes it okay. The fact that I _can_ connect to an SMTP or POP3 server implies I have permission. And the fact that a wireless router grants my laptop an IP address is literally the router saying "Feel free to use me however you want."
Just because people don't realize this fact doesn't make it any less the case. Otherwise, I could set up a webserver, buy a domain, then sue anyone who connects to my webserver for accessing my computer without my permission. I pay per GB of bandwidth the server uses, how dare you connect to _my_ webserver and use _my_ bandwidth.
Yes, because there's no such thing as leakage current. And no one uses DRAM or SRAM....
You can't just stop the clock then start it back up and expect that power consumption will be negligible during that time or that the circuit will work properly when the clock is restarted.
To someone without extensive experience with C++, they might write something like this. And it would work exactly as intended. But because they didn't understand or didn't think about how things worked under the hood, they're paying overhead they shouldn't have had to pay.
I don't get the fight to stop child porn distribution. Doesn't that just make it harder to find the people who engage in this stuff?
Yes, but if it's harder to find the people who engage in the stuff, then the authorities will see less people engaging in it. If the authorities see less people engaging in it, clearly it means that there are less people engaging in it. So obviously the best thing is to make CP distribution completely untraceable by the authorities, because that would mean that no one is doing it!
The correct thing to do in that case would be to include the results and explain that certain factors (such as higher popularity on the internet) can lead to the results being incorrect. Not to pretend that a candidate who fared better than two of the five republicans they DID show never existed.
The reason Eve can't just generate a new pad is because there are two methods of generating a photon and two methods of measuring a photon. Each method of generating a photon has a matched way of measuring it. If you use the matched measurement method you correctly get the bit Alice sent. If you use the incorrect method you get a random 0 or 1 no matter what bit Alice sent. Eve (and Bob too) has no way of telling which method Alice used. In quantum key distribution, after sending the photons, Alice would contact Bob over a different channel. They would tell which method they used, and if they used matching methods keep that bit. If they used different methods they would throw out the bit. If Eve regenerated the bits, she could not have used the same methods as Alice since she doesnt know which methods were used. So Alice and Bob's keys won't match up which will result in any information passed between them to be undecodable and they will know someone eavesdropped.
Quantum Key Distribution is, in its most naive form, still vulnerable to man in the middle attacks. It makes it a little more difficult because you must be able to intercept information on two different channels (the quantum channel and the classical electronic channel), but it is still doable. (There are, however, cryptographic methods of detecting man in the middle attacks, but thats a subject for another time).
The penalty of perjury for DMCA notices is with regards to you claiming that you are authorized to speak on the behalf of the holder of the copyright you are claiming is violated. If you claim that your copyright is being violated incorrectly, that's simply an incorrect DMCA notice. So if a lawyer for a record company sends a takedown for a video that they incorrectly believe to violate their copyright, there's no penalty. If I, however, sent a takedown notice for, lets say, a Radiohead song on YouTube claiming I owned the copyright that is being violated, that would be perjury.
I've run windows as admin for the past 6 years and never had a single problem.
No amount of technical limitations will protect a computer from a user's stupidity. They say in computer security that if someone has physical access to your machine it's already compromised. Well that saying holds for both malice and incompetence.
Quantum cryptography is quantum cryptography only in the sense that it is quantum and is used in cryptographic protocols. It is literally no different than having a guaranteed secure line over which to transmit a private key. The protection quantum cryptography lends to you is the guarantee of that line security. Nothing else.

The macros are binary gibberish without the VBA runtime, much like a Perl file is just ascii gibberish without the Perl interpreter

You've never raided, have you?

Somehow I doubt they'd do that though.
Yeah, the entire lore of Warhammer seems like it's trying to be the cheesiest, most cliche fantasy setting ever.
But then I gank shit and I stop caring. ^_^

Puu?
Uh...you space multiplex rather than time multiplex to parallelize encoding. Motion estimation, e.g., is quite parallelizable.
Let's just make it red, blue, AND green should never been seen.
Hey, did it just get awfully dark in here?

Not to detract from your point, but going for breadth instead of depth of programming languages does have its own drawbacks.
vector<int> foo(10000);
//assign values to foo
vector<vector<int> > bar(2);
bar[0] = foo;

Plus with quantum encryption you can utilize lunar wainshafts to feed the unilatral phase dectractors and Karnot-Graham meters.

Bad - Sure, you can buffer those floppies into a pile at 2.88MB/s, but can your drive read the data that fast? Methinks not.
Sure it can. Just build a floppy drive raid and you're all set.
That's sad. My Polar Satellite Launch Vehicle goes up to 11.....satellites.
