Only send vital info at intervals (like every minute), and compress before sending it. Voice using modern codecs takes very little space, and since you're compressing it, It could be measured in KBs for every minute. Modern telephony codecs are very efficient

Why? There's no oil in space.

"CPUs are so overpowered for nearly all tasks we can live with less efficient compiler generated code."

And this is why an OS needs 15GB of disk space, a game 40GB, and a word processor around what? 2-3 gig?

Meanwhile a C64 runs a full blown flight simulator in 38K...

Aargh!... Please just let it die...

Corporations and NSA are exempt from most laws

Still covers a lot. Almost every software checks for updates.

Besides, HOW will they fincance that operation?

Besides, we were warned Europa is off limits

"other input voltages than 5V are still not accepted"

Putting yet another regulator would increases the cost & complexity. Want to use it with a 12V supply? It's not like it's really hard to use a 7805.

How long until they make yeast illegal?

I'm really looking forward to a prison sentence for trying to make my own bread

I'm amazed at how the safety cage is still there, pretty much undamaged, even if the car was split in half...

Looking at the pictures from TFA, looks like he would still be alive if not ejected from the car (if he could've gotten out before it caught fire)

No wonder NHTSA broke their machine while testing roof resistance

Don't diss gold-plated capacitors with wood dampening.

HDMI is digital. The problem with onboard was never the digital part, but the cheap analog parts and the noisy interior of a PC.

"If you're an audio pro and/or you're building a semi/professional audio rig, onboard isn't going to cut it 99% of the time."

True, but you won't be using a Soundblaster either, and that's where the article is wrong.

There are way better cards at lower prices (Xonar, M-Audio)

Yes, a discrete card might have *better* specs (especially analog components, which was a problem on older integrated soundcards), but I haven't felt the need to use a discrete card since my nForce 2 board (Soundstorm).

Besides, it saves me from using Creative's bloatware.

Just when they say someone fell down the stairs, or resisted arrest. I wonder what the penalty will be for lying...
