    You gotta power those extra whole-systems, that costs money over time.

    Okay, we're going to strike in 10 minutes. Alpha team, grab your tickets and set up a perimeter around space mountain. Beta, you neutralize Captain EO. Gamma, capture their mascot, watch out, they have decoys all over.

    I named my kitten Pirate to avoid such problems.

    I actually named five kittens Pirate, so they should be safe from Eris too...

    What's a Commodore?

    You fail as a first officer.

    Well, nVidia seems to try, ATI doesn't seem to try very hard even on Windows.

    Thats about where I stand.

    They named it after a button on their game controllers, I so must have one!

    Thank you.

    I wanted to know that.

    Sounds like it might draw too much power, or wiggle out of the socket, or something...

  15. Re:It sounds like email on Kansas Anti-Creationism Professor Resigns · · Score: 3, Funny

    Shove that, I'm going to duplicate it with some variation and see if it fares better or worse, then someone else will copy/alter the better one. Of course, someone might think they're god or something and try to make a perfect version on the first try. I'm sure my way is better, the way it really is!

    Yeah, so tell me when they stop selling the P4 as their primary desktop chip.

  20. Surprising how? on Intel Discusses Future Plans · · Score: 4, Insightful

    The surprising part: they're already focusing on 45nm processes.

    Thats the only way to dodge their inefficiency problems. Outside of like, designing better chips.

    The 6502 had X and Y too.

  23. Re:Wow ... on Unleashing the Power of the Cell Broadband Engine · · Score: 1

    Umm, did the 6502 need many registers? If there were to be many more and they were to be useful command size might out-reach bus width, some fancy dancing might make it a break-even on speed. Best idea might be a scratchpad area built in, still not much of a win over just using zero-page.

    I wonder how well an uber-multicore 6502 at appropriately modern clockspeeds would fare today...

  24. Re:Maybe I'm confused ... on Prime Human Cloning Researcher Humiliated · · Score: 1

    In that case is seems reasonable that SOMEONE would speak up and say "but the boss said that if I don't do this he'll burn down my home w/ family.

    This is not that similar, the head guy was apparently looking out for the others in a manner that did not involve their life/death/quality-thereof. Oh, and no nuclear accidents were likely to happen because of it.

    You might as well just break out a car analogy.

    Reminds me of my response to the question of how to deal with a nasty smell on the space shuttle, open the windows (my attempt at being a smartass was then thwarted by them saying pretty much the same thing, just not with the windows).
