And your download rate gets almost completely destroyed as a result. Other peers/leachers try to find the peers/seeds they can get the highest download rate from, so will disconnect from you if you don't send them anything. Leaving you with any seeds there might be, which are usually overloaded.
Still, I said almost always.
Personal property right to share your bought copy with a few thousand torrenters? I didn't know there was such a right.
Torrenting almost always involves distributing pieces to a lot of other bit-torrent users. Each constitutes a copyright infringement, because you don't have distribution rights (aka copyright).
Even if you buy or own the thing you are bit-torrenting, it's still very much illegal if you don't own the copyright to that thing.
No. First line from the wikipedia article (emphasis mine): "UTF-8 (UCS Transformation Format — 8-bit) is a multibyte character encoding for Unicode. Like UTF-16 and UTF-32, UTF-8 can represent every character in the Unicode character set."
Indeed. My mistake.
Actually the EU caps only cover calls and texts, not data.
Gmail doesn't try to remind you when you forget an to attach an attachment that you mention in the mail.
Sorry to be picky, but Gmail does do that now and has for a while I believe (although may have only been an optional Labs feature until recently).
Right. Which is why you multiply smidge's numbers by 1 month to get watt-hours for one month. Which is another point in favour of his numbers not already being in watt-hours.
Actually you have calculated average watts (which is what is really relevant). Your numbers are "watt hours per hour", cancelling to watts, not watt hours.
I would imagine that you'll likely still be able to upgrade by adding a discrete graphics card for quite some time.
I have a working (graphical) snake game I wrote in QBASIC (self-taught) saved from the month I turned 13 (the code is of course horrific). School didn't teach me any programming either (I self-taught a variety of languages though), until taking a university course in computer game programming. Fast forward to the present day, and I have one shipped PC/360/PS3 game on my resumé and am a year away from adding a PS3-exclusive to that.
I live in the same economy as you, had the same opportunities. The difference is that I didn't drop out. I followed my dream.
You could JIT generate Javascript which is then JIT compiled itself...
Perhaps the problem isn't with the BBC, but the fact that your internet traffic is proxy'd via the US? You'd also get much better latency if you could get directly onto the internet locally.
I have a self-dumped pokémon red rom, and it does indeed run pretty well.
Colour me impressed!
