Yes Cisco does. I have seen it a couple times with other enterprise products. It is evil. The product basically becomes a paperweight after the planned life cycle.

Its dredge from a coal port. Dollars to donuts all the coal doesn't make it on the ship everytime.

Further, in adoption I don't think a doctor needs to be involved. This is just the State deciding what they want and the chilling effects it will have. Then working their way to something that looks kind of like a legal argument.

It isn't just Obama. It is Standard Operating Procedure for all US branches of security. Look up Frank Oslon. The US is just marginally better than the Nazis at times. The things the US does in the name of security is disgusting.

In Ontario we have a train/bus service called Go Transit. Regulated by the province. The goal is pulling workers into Toronto and out of Toronto without them driving. It works great and is expanding. The only thing it sucks for is people not working the 9 to 5.

Better not tell the people that operate hypobaric chambers.

Solitary confinement in prison for life and your whole argument for the death penalty becomes invalid. The fact that a judge or jury gets to pick either death penalty or life is the biggest farce. Pick one and it should be automatic on conviction of first degree murder.

Doesn't matter. You make use of a blue LED technology you must make sure that you license the patent. The date of expiration doesn't matter either for violations that occur during the term of the patent. The recent newegg case about SSL was for past violations of an expired patent.

You laugh, but its called reinsurance.

Picture a super computer so massive that components fail as fast as we can replace them. Now that is a big super computer. This is the issue. Super computers have a physical limit. If the node power doesn't grow we will reach a limit on simulation power. It will be interesting to see how the CPU matures. That means more features will be developed beyond raw power.

I understand what you are trying to say, but this is a huge part of the problem. What you said was wrong so now your just giving them ammo. We come from a common ancestor. It isn't a monkey. It probably doesn't even look remotely like a monkey. It is like when ever the creationists attack Darwin. I agree with some of the points. Darwin had some things wrong, but that is not the state of the art for evolution anymore. And it really is the beauty of science. It is always wrong and we know it. We are all ways trying to improve it and make it better, more real, more correct to the universe we observe.

Most networked PLC setups use the MAC addresses in the coding. The comment made sense if they are releasing a custom piece of hardware to their manufacturing line.

The issue is demand. Demand will be met with supply. A route of transportation will be found. Similar to drugs. I just hope it doesn't get banned on trains and end up in tractor trailers.

I thought the same thing. Newegg lists at least 30 models currently at 7200rpm in the 2.5 form factor. And a couple (not SAS) at the 10000rpm.

My APC has a blinking light and beeps loudly when you overload. I think you would know if that was the issue.
