Never realized how close I was to the machines hosting, another 4ms down to central Indiana.

Hyperbole much? Given the amount of data I already trust google with I think it's safe to say I trust google with this.

Yeah and half of climbing mount Everest is downhill, it's not that impressive.

We're talking about upper tier undergrads, then yes its known. I went to a college of about 2000 students and I knew two people who got perfect SAT's just in my group of friends, similarly I only knew of two who maintained 4.0's, although one lost it due to a B in the elective "Science Fiction" course, that was good for a laugh.

I'm going to throw out a bullshit here. Even at the most difficult of under graduate colleges you're still going to have people capable of maintaining a 4.0 throughout there college career while taking difficult courses. You're going to know multiple people with perfect SAT/ACT scores and you'll invariably know one or two who can pull off a 4.0 regardless of course load.

Why complain about it if you voluntarily went to a school like that? I went to a college where all my undergraduate courses were about 20:1 student to teacher because that's what I wanted. The options are out there.

Thank you for your post full of stereotypical and uninformed derp. .223 is for the military? No .223 is the civilian chambering of the 5.56 military round (they operate at different pressures). The .223 is a common hunting round and I own a pistol chambered in it as well. However the 5.56 is for most purposes functionally identical and I'd bet it's used for hunting to a large extent as well. It's also one of the most inexpensive mid range rifle calibers for target shooting, far cheaper to target shoot with than the custom wildcat calibers many target shooters use.

Also please stop talking about about high velocity rounds and walls before you actually read something on the subject.

Exactly this, it's the same issue with the stupid 'assault weapon ban' the democratic party insists on keeping on it's ticket. They are used in a miniscule amount of gun related incidents (low single digit percent) and the DOJ studies all confirmed that the ban did nothing. However it sounds scary and makes a great news sound byte so it still persists just like the printing guns angle. The people who can afford to print and manufacture there own guns share a very small part of the venn diagram with people who commit crimes using guns.

Actually I wouldn't be surprised if both of your fake examples were true, by the same logic that you try and argue about guns. I'd suspect people who are going into situations where dehydration is a real concern are more likely to bring bottled water but even with that precaution are more likely to end up lost and dead of dehydration. Similarly I'd suspect people who are more likely to carry jumper cables are people who know they have older cars/batteries.

This thought experiment is mostly pointless as your statistics are mostly bogus and in no way represent controlled experiments.

The VM's ram footprint is larger than the amount of memory he listed.

My local development database CentOs VM with a stripped down dataset is larger than your plenty of memory.

I also did this :( Never played an actual pen and paper game with other people until I got to college.

Having spent the last year developing an app that falls strictly into the later category (tracking) I was operating under the impression that the division you described is how things currently operate. The idea I received from our client was that as long as we did not encourage decisions or try to promote behavior we didn't have to worry about going through FDA regulation. This didn't save us from developing to the same standards as we would have for FDA submission, since the client has plans to expand the product in the future.

I was really hoping for more useful information at the "Largely Hopeless" hyperlink, I should have examined the url first.
