Crazy arse porn rules.
Yes, it does.
Wait, did you mean they have extra laws about exotic pornography? Uhh, never mind what I just said.

The test numbers in section 6.3 show that ECC mitigates most of the errors, as the bulk of them are single bit ones. And if you're on a system that's prone to this problem, the odds are you will see a warning about that ECC correction kicking in long before you'll hit one of the uncorrectable multi-bit errors.
I'm also bothered by people who put the word audiophiles in scare quotes for no good reason. P.S. Not all audiophiles are opposed to blind testing; some people like expensive audio toys that are objectively better too.
Memory speed can technically still be the bottleneck on large memory footprint games like BF4; see the bit-tech review for some numbers on that. The people chasing after PC gaming benchmarks reflexively use the fastest memory around though, and if you do that it's less likely for memory to dictate the speed limits.
Read Before you initiate a “docker pull”. Note that it contains warnings about almost everything supposedly discovered by this researcher, and it came out before it. That's why no one in Docker land is even taking this seriously. People who are surprised by this aren't aware of what's going on with Docker by definition, because if they were they'd know this is old news.
Docker 1.X is a first release with lots of known limitations--this is one of them--plus the inevitable security issues of any new software. No one with any sense is putting it into production yet.
It's right in the article: "RPX is sort of the 'good version of Intellectual Ventures.'...it's making sure that basically anyone can license these patents under FRAND (fair and reasonable, non-discriminatory) rates."
Dude, the whole "never get fired for buying Microsoft" thing is over. I work on large government contracts for a living now, and ever since Oracle's GSA contract was canceled, we can't expand fast enough to convert people over to PostgreSQL on Linux. The whole US government is Open Source First now, following the OS stack adoption of most fast growing companies today. It's only the tired old companies who still trot out their old Microsoft servers for everything, and who wants to work for them?
The Microsoft FUD anecdotes had a good run, but we're already at the point where innovative companies consider their software part of the same legacy mess as Cobol.
Yes, the #1 killer of Paleolithic people over 30 was failing to outrun the velociraptors.
“Smoking takes ten years off your life. Well it’s the ten worst years, isn’t it folks? It’s the ones at the end! It’s the wheelchair, kidney dialysis, adult diaper years. You can have those years! We don’t want ‘em, alright?” - Dennis Leary
Alzheimer's at 90 so you can't run your island nation anymore? Liked that story better when it was it Roy Bates on Sealand.
I fully expect Peter Thiel to be shot on his island by someone who thinks he's an asshole. Paddy Roy Bates only made this work because he was a bad-ass.
First, pointing a finger and screeching 'DENIER' seems a lot like pointing the finger and screeching 'HERETIC', lending credence to the whole environmentalism-as-a-substitute-religion theory.
We should also teach children to bully the kids who aren't vaccinated, by pointing at them and yelling UNCLEAN!
Actually, skeptigate has a nice ring to it. "Some idiot was complaining about some conspiracy theories and I had to skeptigate him until he shut up".
Don't you oppress me.
Cracker as a term predates slavery in the US; it actually predates the whole country. See the crackers on wikipedia or The Secret History Of The Word 'Cracker' for an outline of the theories and history here. There was a large enough intersection between white slave owners and the white people called crackers that it probably helped popularize the term, but they were not the same group.
