But not with consumer RAID controllers. There you'll saturate the RAID controller instead of the 10 GbE.

The ones that can understand the use of English instead of their respective native language certainly won't be bothered with the archaic distance measurement.
Iceland has plenty of reliable and renewable geothermal energy. Everything they can do electrically they will do electrically.
In CO2 per capita they are far lower than the US average.
Yes there is. Increased electricity usage = increased CO2 emissions = increased greenhouse effect. Price is a good incentive to curb usage.
Where I live it also get dark at 17:00 in winter. However, there are people with split rate meters that count night usage different from day usage. Night usage is cheaper.
Why? Almost everybody heats with natural gas. More than half cook with natural gas. Don't use electricity for the work that natural gas can do. Low entropy energy is expensive.
That really depends on your efficiency. Small scale is often more expensive.
If a 10 kWh system costs $10K while a 100kWh system costs $70K then the country as a whole would be better off with 100kWh systems.
Obligatory XKCD
Hardly. PO boxes require having a PO box. That costs money. This in included in the cost of delivery (it's cheaper for the postal company).
One of the problems with digging tunnels in a city is that it causes the ground to settle. Even with modern systems that have only little vibration and only little risk of caving in between the drill head and the tunnel wall.
If the ground drops even 10 cm on one side of a building, what do you think happens with it?
I want somewhere I can pick up my parcel at a time convenient to me. Luckily we have that here in the Netherlands. I can have the packet send to my supermarket and then I can go get it with my next shopping trip. No need to stay at home for a simple delivery.
Sadly Amazon doesn't work with it yet so I have to have that send to my work address.
Digging tunnels under cities is expensive. I won't say it's a bad plan, quite on the contrary, but it'll be expensive to get the tunnels in place.
I would love to see it work, motor vehicles in inner cities is a bad plan and this would make it possible to eliminate trucks from the inner city. After that making the roads bike and walk only is just a small step.
Never is almost always wrong.
For example, the wiki page on lenses. I think it is quite clear. It offers examples, formulas and the way of thinking when calculating a lens.
Do you feel that that is jargonated? Is the notation obscure?
Technical subjects usually have quite clear and correct wikipedia pages. As soon as politics enter it wikipedia is not reliable.
Add an RGB LED, add wireless power, sell em for 10K per buck and stick em on the wall as a screen.
Valve can have significant impact on that. It would just also significantly impact themselves.
Steam knows or can know what GPU you run it on, along with drivers etc. It could simply fall back to VGA without hardware acceleration for yet-to-be-released Nvidia GPUs.
That would significantly affect the Nvidia bottom line in the future. It would also place Valve in a bad spot.
If you had better tools, you could more effectively demonstrate your total incompetence.
