apparently lots of people use Flickr - too many, even.
We're experiencing massive internal network problems at the primary Flickr data center. You may notice this with occasional pageviews (or, at times, most pageviews) taking *much* longer to come across the wire.
Hood River's the real windsurfing capital, but it's not far from The Dalles.
The real draw is the Columbia river. There Google can dispose of the bodies and use the water for cooling the factories that turn people into food (Soylent Green, anyone?)
Not only that, but Flickr is a free service, so even in this case, you're geting more than you paid for it!
Whiners.
Simple solution: every time you upload a screen shot, upload a photo to keep it from going over 50% "non-photographic".
Actually, the old designs are not faulty per se, but tritium, which is an important component of fusion bombs, has a half life of about 12 years, so the bombs have a shelf life, if you will.
Someone else probably mentioned this already, but I'm not gonna go through all 600 (!) comments to find out. Popular topic, I see.
that's funny - several Japanese semiconductor companies have decided to collaborate on the next generation 45nm and beyond CMOS - Renesas, NEC, Toshiba, and Fujitsu.
The Japanese also already have a semiconductor consortium called SELETE.
I guess they don't always practice what they preach!
Actually, ethanol is the antidote for ethylene glycol. It is preferentially metabolized by the same system that metabolizes the glycol, so you "keep it busy" while you "pee it [EG] out", as you said.
also, good point Spy der Mann: combining resources with other companies - which Intel tends not to do - for example, the INVENT Lithography Consortium, a co-op R&D effort between AMD, IBM, Infineon Technologies, and Micron Technology.
I remember some engineering students in college who lived in an apartment that had hot water included in the rent but they had to pay for electricity for heat. Money saving idea: hook up a radiator with an electric fan to the bathtub faucet and run hot water through it to heat the apartment and keep the electric heaters off. ---> free heat!
K-Mart bought Sears, if that tells you anything. They're doing OK, I suppose, but theyv've come down a few notches since their heyday.
My question is, who needs a web-based spreadsheet? Maybe I'm clueless, but I don't understand the target.
Not only that, but when we send food over to Africa, for example, the corrupt governments get it and do God knows what with it and people stay hungry.
With these laptops, isn't that even more likely?
If Charles Taylor or someone of his ilk gets a touch of conscience, he doesn't have to waste it on withholding laptops from hungry, sick children!
I thought I read that they were going to be sold in the US, etc. for $300, the extra $200 going to donate more to the third-world kids.

It took me a second. ..I remember Hartree-Fock from P. Chem but don't remember much about it. Something to do with quantum mechanics. An approximation of a solution to the Hamiltonian?
I remember my chemistry set as a kid had sodium ferrocyanide in it. Mix a solution of it with a solution containing ferric ions (e.g. ferric sulfate) and you got a deep dark blue color. Even small concentrations were quite blue. Harmless though, despite the "cyanide" in the name.
It's kinda like acrlyamide (nasty, nasty stuff) and polyacrylamide (harmless), although I suppose that for a wide variety of dangerous monomers, polymerization renders them quite safe (ethylene, acetylene, styrene, isoprene, etc.)
Uh, it seems that "Malformed URLs don't redirect to Microsoft" but to www.w3.org as they should according to the outdated link in your sig.
Mod -1 Offtopic;-)
Like they said in the article, if they see something interesting, a capsule can't stop or back up. It needs the locomotion to do that.
I don't want to imagine what it's like when it's all done, but I'd hope that everything comes out OK in the end. Ugh.

Hey, give Gore a break!
He invented the Internet, for gosh sakes!
He can't be good at EVERYTHING!
Did you really intend the title of your comment to be "Hardened Window User"? ;-)
Or are you really "hard-a*sed"?
By the way: Google is GOOD. . .
Really? Couldn't tell that from today's comments.
The rest of your generalizations seem spot on.
Anyways, thanks for the "heads up".

OK, so I'm kind of new to /. (as if you couldn't tell from my user #).
So, what's with the recurring joke "Imagine a beowulf cluster of these."
Someone please enlighten me so I can be in on it.

. . .and still when I order iced tea I either get not enough ice ("hey it's iced tea!") or too much: three sips and I need a refill.
Excellent point!
Has there ever been a technology some inventive human has not adapted for self-gratification?
Ummm, let's see. . . focused ion beam milling?
If I'm wrong, I don't want to know, thank you very much.

But hey, at least they included a speculation that Cisco might buy Nintendo, for contrast.
Next to that, this speculation looks pretty reasonable!
That'll be just before we see the headline:
"Cover-up in UN Oil-for-Laptops scandal?"

The company I work for has Intel as its biggest customer. BTW, you guys should use Intel's new logo - it's been out since January.
