If you want to find primes of other types try http://www.primegrid.com/ you can find 200k+ digit primes rather easily. They also have GPU support for some of the projects.

Just make friends with people who have google fiber :)

That is not how you get a green card! The amount of time is largely dependent on the visa bulletin dates. Presently the wait is up to 10+ years depending on your country of birth. The "line" to get the green cards has been getting longer and longer. http://travel.state.gov/visa/bulletin/bulletin_5856.html

Whoops sorry listed the wrong router model, I did get the AC model you listed. It's also fun how they list 1.75Gbit on the box, but it's really 1.3gbit if you use 5ghz and 450mbit if you use 2.4ghz.

I just got a Asus 802.11AC (RT-N66U) router and their AC66 PCIE adapter last night. The performance through one wall about 20 feet from the router is a claimed 1.3GBIT however transfer rates so far are 8 megabytes a second. I know it's still in draft blah blah but it's quite sad how slow it is in the real world.

Same here, had two of them in crossfire and it was always super unsmooth even though it claimed high frame rate 120+. I switched to NVIDIA and it's night and day.

Since this Slashdot the title should really be storage containers as the obvious assumption is a storage unit stores data!

At 55 seconds that looks like the halo shard gun or whatever it's called?

Caching, is that a sly way of saying they are copying what others did or just a fortunate typo?

Based off the title it is unclear if this is about a star that devours planets or a planet that devours stars.

He is a Program manager so, great journalism zdnet

Anyone know what this is about it's in the last paragraph "It's interesting to mention that these machines mostly run Windows XP and Windows 7 32 bit, but none of them run Windows 7 64 bit, which seems impervious against this and most other malware." Is that due to driver signing requirements?

And use vi!

It would be interesting to know how many bit coins the mods own as they keep posting bit coin stories.
