As mentioned, efficiency of PSU changes over variety of conditions (load being most significant), so it's good to check reviews that do proper measurements to get the one that has good efficiency all across the range. Unlike posts above, it doesn't always fall at 50% mark. That said, good PSUs often sport high efficiency for a reason; they're made well. It'll serve you well to get a really high quality PSU if anything so it doesn't blow up on you, possibly losing all sorts of other parts in the computer, which would cost a lot more than just larger electricity bill.

Not as fun as remotely playing with people's pacemakers.

We started listening to business requirements and started engineering for products that had x year lifespan which happens to be much shorter than older machines.

Given funding, we can probably make extraordinary machines now that can last for a millennia. We just don't because of cost and customer requirements to constantly upgrade to next new thing and dump the old with lesser features and looks.

In fact, you should have it on you at all times when you're working, or at least within easy reach (because they're kinda heavy).

I stand corrected on that note then. But yes, most likely this is the end of it and google will pay up.

Except if you read TFA it says it's a decision by supreme court, which by I assume the high court of Australia, which is the highest and final court of appeal for making decisions on. There isn't much else to go from here, AFAIK.

No, unlike American courts, Australian courts take these things seriously. They probably sat there pondering for a long time with whole list of evidence and whatnot, and came to conclusion that indeed, the person is owed $200k worth of damages for defamation. $200k AUD is, assuming $50k salary (relatively low income), only some 4 years worth of salary. It's not a massive jackpot of any means, and most of it probably goes to the lawyer fees. You'll barely afford half a suburban flat with it here. Evidence must have stacked that the image results search for him has made him suffer some level of financial and other damages, but not as great as people seem to think. I don't know the exact court details, but some poor judge sat there and added up the sums for this.

It's often black ice that is invisible on the roads that causes slipping, rather than visibly obvious snow. That is probably what this targets. Snow is an obvious indicator that road is dangerous, and this paint fixes parts where you can't easily see that.

It's an educational game involving programming robots. You're an astronaut with a mission to explore space, and you have a variety of robots at your disposal. You can control them individually, or more effectively, you're supposed to program them to be automated. Sort of third-person FPS with RTS elements, where you code your own units. It uses its own somewhat OOP language, and is just fun with variety of missions.

Considering how old it is it's kinda still expensive, but give it a go (there should be a demo iirc).

What, you carry around a dedicated landline phone with a really long spool of copper wire?

Or do you mean you've invented a crazy piece of wire antenna that's somehow better than all the other antennas around found in phones?

But now we can have it inside the person for months/years, and just wait for the perfect moment for the poison to be released. Might even have people go through mandated health care including vaccination, and anyone who steps out of line is just quietly killed off.

I thought Australian immigration requires anyone to be of at least 1 or 2 years (depending on few factors) as a permanent resident before they can apply to become a citizen, and becoming a PR in itself takes a while. Maybe easier to get the PR status for him due to his status and wealth, but citizenship is entirely different, I think? Possibly also requires certain amount of stay in the country to earn it. Would appreciate if any /.er has better detail on immigration requirements.

Because otherwise this just sounds like a really early non-news. Good on him for coming over to this side of the oceans though.

And this regulator can't have itself vary depending on temperature?
