I thought having a Just Plain Wrong moderation option would be useful, but it would just be abused by trolls. So instead one must actually respond to wrong such as you and others have. It helps foster the community in that we can't just say something is wrong, but we have to say how it is wrong.
So not only does this do Mach 6, but it also uses its own sonic booms to help with propulsion? Or did they just choose Waverider because it sounds neat?
Here I was thinking it wasn't a real airship yet because it sounds like they have only filled the balloon, but not attached anything to the balloon yet.
At this point its just a balloon. It still needs its skin, engines, a compartment for pilot and or crew.
They have the air part down, now they just need the ship part.
Basically what you are saying is that the other person was saying that if the doctors held the patent then they would have the ability to hold up uptake of the technology they developed.
That is idiotic. Of course they could, but that totally ignores every single aspect of this issue. Yes the doctors if they were the patent holders could be as bad as the patent trolls, but it is the doctors who developed the tech who are the ones complaining about not being able to use their own processes.
Any patent holder can be a troll, no shit, it doesn't apply to this story.
I have a EVGA 9800GT, compared to my friends BFG 8800GTX the EVGA heatsink is a complete joke.
The BFG heatsink has a nice heatpipe set up and all the ram chips are in contact with the heatink. The card looks like it could take a hit or two from a hammer on the heatsink side without killing it.
The EVGA heatsink connects to the GPU only. It has a fairing system that makes it look like the type of heatsink that is on the 8800, but its not nearly the same.
Then again the 8800 when it was purchased was the top of the line and went for around $500, my EVGA was closer to $125 and a was generation old.
Are you talking about the physical object Opportunity, regardless of function?
Or are saying that Opportunity will function longer than an operating system? Cause that makes absolutely zero sense. How in the hell would you even measure the lifetime of an operating system? By first install to last install? By how long Microsoft supports the OS? By how long the physical disk is usable, and if so in which environment? From boot to reboot? You have left my mind in a boggle.
No one knew if there would be enough wind to wipe the dust off of the solar panels. That was the limiting factor, it was figured it could go for 90 days before its solar panels would be too dusted to power the rover.
The specs were fine, we just under estimated the wind.

Same way its handled in prison.
but war is profitable and preferable to humanity.
It's not about profitability.
OH MY GOD THEY WILL TRY TO KILL YOU KIDS!!!
Gets a lot more funding than.
Hey man, we could like send some people to Mars. It would be neat.
If Twitter is still popular at that time yes.
Publicity is a necessary component of NASA missions.
Yes, we do have enough rice.
We have enough food production that no one should go hungry.
People go hungry due to politics and poor distribution, not overall quantity of food.
Sorry but walking around naked raving about aliens is no way to go though life.
As long as its not flash based web banners.
If you want to know reasonably how long the product will last then look at the warranty.
It's just all about safety.
Instead of having half the plane full of people chatting on their phones on take-off the airline would prefer them praying for their lives.
One of his clients gave him a box full of cell phones, forgot which episode.
Use Skype or magic jack.

Intels chips are faster because Intel has much better production facilities.
and 3dfx was mismanaged into oblivion a decade ago
And Nvidia picked up the pieces from 3dfx.
Video cards for gaming.
Memory bandwidth within the video card is one of the best ways to grade a video card.
It doesn't matter much how much video Ram it has, its the speed.
Having a newer video card helps a little, but the big thing is the video memory bandwidth.
Video processing is secondary for gaming because the primary bottleneck is the memory bandwidth.
If you have a low end, but new video card it will perform comparably to the older version of the same card.
If you have an older premium card it will still perform better than a newer budget card primarily because of the memory bandwidth.
I guess they mean the "largest" that currently exists. Then again its not even close to complete so even that one is pre-mature.

Now that is a nice clear thought that explains the point well.
I may have been caught up in the "make sense because it sounds too stupid" moment.
The ability to make something so aerodynamic that it actually creates motion at rest would be so awesome.
Too bad it would be something small like an atom or a neutrino.
Perhaps that could be re-phrased to make sense?

Didn't RTFA?
One of the doctors complaining is one of the doctors that invented the process.

At least that is what I have been told.
My question is why not something denser, like lead?
