848x400 resolution... Buy six and a frame splitter (or series of splitters), and you can get 1696x1200. Buy nine, and you can get 2544x1200. Of course, mounting is up to you. Might be worth it to replace certain projectors.
How does that work? I would expect that the color of the roof would be irrelevant if it was buried under a blanket of white, insulating snow - no sunshine would hit it.
All you need is a little crack of black and you'll start melting. One of my favorite methods of asphalt-driveway shoveling when there's only 4-8 inches of snow: Drive out to the road, packing down some snow, then shovel two lines right next to the wheel-trenches. If the temperature is at least 20F, then the whole driveway melts and evaporates in one sunny afternoon. If it's 10-20F, then at least in a few days there is considerably less snow, but you'll have some ice (which is easy to scrape to the side).
That's nice for the hot countries. What about cold countries? Maybe we like having black roofs and roads to melt the snow faster if there's a little opening?
Nope. They're custom-tuned to the body thetans of the particular individual. That's what makes them so expensive.
So, I get Cruise to shoot me first, since he's paid enough to clear all his thetans, and now, being thetanless, I can use his gun to perform a R2-45 too. Awesome. Hey Tom, I'm coming over to borrow your gun. If you're reading this, act all surprised and shoot me when I get there.
Try attending church regularly and never donating a cent. Watch how the other people treat you.
I did it for 10 years into my adulthood. No one batted an eye. When I started giving (tithing actually), no one changed their behavior then either. Seems money's not the point of church (unless you're going to a fake church).
You know, that mini-touchscreen tablet that everyone thinks is coming? Instead of allowing people to use google-docs and discover that the touch interface doesn't work with regular software, Apple has been developing its own cloud computing software applications. With your $1,500 purchase of $300 of hardware, you get to use Apple's cluster-farm to write your iDocs (assuming your net connection stays up).
Fusion powered 3d graphics card? Are gamers really clambering to run awesome 3D games under OS X?
TV tuners and video capture? There are plenty of those for USB, FW or Ethernet.
I know someone that ran 8 displays off a Mac. He had to use Linux though, because MacOS couldn't handle the cards.
I'll see your joke and raise you my anecdote of having to manually add drivers & recompile the kernel for an e1000 NIC since the kernel that came with the latest Fedora at the time didn't have them (one out of two times in the last eight years I remember ever having to install drivers besides nvidia or ati, btw.)
If I had to choose between Linux of Windows, it would be Linux, hands down, but if this machine's only network connection exists to pass the random number data, then there's no reason why it needs constant Windows Updates and Anti-virus scans (shouldn't need AV at all*). Pretty much everything you stated except real-time kernel you can do with stock Windows. It doesn't even have to be on the internet itself.

How is that a persistent problem?
They're using the meatspace definition, not the computer science definition. People are always getting confused, and web developers are almost always forgetting that people get confused. ergo, persistent problem.
Ah, but to the layman (as myself), "random" does not equal "non-deterministic". There is(may be) a method by which quantum stuff functions, so it is not truly random, but we _can't_ know what that method is, so it's non-random, and non-deterministic. To a physicist, the two terms might equate, but they better start using the language we use before we think they're saying something regoddamdiculous. Tee hee, see what I did there?
Calculating the full image is far more work than necessary. This also easily allows for an arbitrary number of dice to be used, assuming the don't start piling on top of each other.
Because if you count 36 dots, was that six dice with six rolled on each, or twelve threes, or...
Even if you can count exactly how many dice you rolled, was the total of six dots from four dice three ones and a three, or was it one plus two plus two plus one?
I'm guessing that knowing the exact number of dice rolled and what each die rolled is important.
I read that too; was wondering if the "temperature-stability" was around liquid-oxygen temperatures or something. If it's not at least room-temperature stable, it's not worth as much as it sounds.
But why would you appoint a lawyer to a position that clearly needs a person with a technical skillset, a technical background, in order to even understand the security issues and assess the implications.
If you're a top-level executive, why would you hire an MBA into the same type of position in the corporate world? Because they speak your language, and the guys who know what they're doing don't.

You should only diagnose disorders you can treat without drugging them. The rest is just life.

BTW, don't visit France right now.
Get used to it and deal with it positively.
Aha, but he _can't_ get used to it, no matter how hard he tries. That's when a doctor starts saying, "Hmm, maybe this is a real problem."

Apparently Server 2008 shipped with its SP1 built-in. 2008 SP2 auto-downloaded yesterday.

Unless you can market it as the new hotness; potential super-computing head-nodes in your pocket.
Yeah, I've seen them. This guy was using four dual-head internal cards though.
That $800 PC will be worth much less soon when the CPU fries.

So, more anti-constitutional? Similar to the difference between non-social and asocial?

I'm sure putting "Mac" in your name makes you a prime candidate.
Somebody warn MacRomedia! Oh wait, they're gone.

manually installing networking support

Paradoxically, those thoughts deliberately Soviet Russia about you all the time.
Wait, I screwed that up somehow...
Why not use traditional white dice with black dots on a white background. Then it is as simple as
