Windows can do some scary stuff. My laptop BIOS does not have the ability to set a time to wake the machine. Yet for weeks I would find the laptop had gone from a completely powered off state to a completely drained battery overnight while sitting in my backpack. When I turned off the automatic update feature of Windows, the mysterious behaviour stopped. Somehow, Windows would power up the laptop in the middle of the night, and it would sit at a GRUB prompt until the batteries were drained.
But at the end of those six years he went against a certain castle that was called CAAJU, and there he was shot with an arrow in the knee, so that he died of his wound. A great pity it was, for he was a valiant man and a wise.

The induced magnetosphere around Venus is caused when the charged particles of the solar wind are deflected around the planet. Mars also has the same type of induced magnetosphere. As a matter of fact, the observation of Mars' induced magnetosphere is what lead to the conclusion that the planet doesn't have a significant magnetic field of its own.
Magnetic fields are not what holds an atmosphere. Gravity does. Consider Venus. It does not have a magnetic field, yet it has quite a thick atmosphere.
When was the last time you actually counted as high as 507? I'm not talking about counting to 100 five times and then another seven, but actually counting each number from 1 to 507?
What part of what I wrote is wrong? Is the fluid in the heat pipe in direct contact with the CPU? Is the heat transfer block not metal? Does the heat not travel along the metal of the pipe wall until it reaches thermal equilibrium with the working fluid?
Consumer: not enough 4K native content to justify 4K TV.
Content makers: Not enough 4K TVs to justify making 4K content.
Lots of movies are being filmed in 4K (or at least filmed with 4K capable cameras). It's not just the home TV market, don't forget. It's the digital theatre market as well.
Easy. The fluid in a heat pipe is not in direct contact with the CPU. The metal of the heat transfer block and pipe is what is conducting the heat away from the CPU. Any Leidenfrost effect within the pipe merely insulates that section of pipe, and the heat simply conducts further down the pipe wall.
Why not? Debt bondage is a person's pledge of their labour or services as repayment for a loan or other debt. It's only when the concept is misused that it becomes an issue.
Using a boiling liquid is asking for trouble. True, a phase change like boiling can conduct away a lot of heat, but there are other issues. First of all, vapour does not conduct as much heat as liquid, so there's going to be an insulating layer of vapour over all of the components that need it most. It's called the Leidenfrost Effect. Second, bubbles expanding and collapsing causes an effect called cavitation, which can erode components. It is a constant sonic vibration which can induce metal fatigue in delicate wires (such as the leads inside a chip), and can cause cracks in inflexible materials such as silicon chips and ceramics (capacitors and resistors).
It's painfully obvious that he meant the keepers belonging to Finder, and the weepers belonging to Loser. So Finder has several goalies, or "keepers", and Loser cries a lot.
Don't get me wrong. Most IMPLEMENTATIONS of slavery are wrong. For example, chattel slavery. Some, like military service, contract labour, and debt bondage, can be mutually beneficial both to the master and the slave.
If the safe operation of a car requires your continuous full attention then perhaps you shouldn't be driving. For the rest of us, we continuously choose what to pay attention to, and how much attention to pay to it, and relegate the rest to peripheral systems. If drinking a coffee was such a hazard then drive throughs and cup-holders would be illegal.

I imagine that an undercover cop isn't doing his job particularly well if he's driving a police cruiser.
Maybe he's from Internal Affairs and is simply POSING as a cop.

Well, no one is saying that the dinosaurs didn't have space travel.

The opposite of gravity is comedy. That's why there's so much black humor.
Close. The opposite of gravity is levity.
The only reason helicopters fly is that they are so ugly the ground repels them.
I don't see any possible "new generation of games" based upon passing me my coffee cup.
At least not as long as I'm still able to reach over and pick it up myself.
Oh come on! That video had Pong written all over it.
I know they're small, but I doubt even 2 would fit under my coffee table, let alone hundreds.
Why would programming want to meet kids as young as six years old?
Because marketing thought it would be a good idea, and management agreed?
Really? You count
... 98,99,200.
.,.98,99,100,101,102...198,199,200,201...
rather than
...98,99,100.
1,2,3

They found it. Apparently it got stuck to one of the fighters.

Yes, we use the internet in our car. But, we're not freaking browsing the web.
Exactly! Some of us are doing Archie searches.

If the car is running, in gear (ie not in park), and you're behind the wheel, then you're driving whether or not the vehicle is in motion.
That doesn't say that slavery is a bad idea. It just says that it is against UN charter.
