"Samsung don't make any suitable LCD panels"

As I sit here looking on my 32" Samsung S-IPS panel, which is nearing a decade in age and is still operating flawlessly - BULLSHIT.

Actually, it's not the nails, it's the better bracing clips we have for that.

I just finished construction on a building out in tornado alley, Texas. Much different than what I was using 20 years ago helping my father doing roofing and joist work.

"Laws requiring all structures to withstand an 8.0? Let's move past the enforcement nightmare that would be and look at the reality of building that strong"

You're horribly ignorant of earthquake measures for buildings. For one, overall structure strength isn't key, it's flexibility and sheer forces handling for the building itself, and THEN ON TOP OF THAT, it sits atop sliding pads meant to keep a good deal of that energy from ever affecting the building in the first place.

Speaking as a California resident, I've dealt with plenty of earthquakes. Outside, on your feet and on the pavement, you'll feel the fuck out of something as meager as a 4.0. Indoors, with our technology (assuming your place was built within the past 20 years) a 6.0 can roll through with the epicenter a couple kilometers away and half a kilometer down, and your pictures on the wall will only be barely off-kilter. You might have a few dishes in your cabinets moved to where the cabinet doors are slightly ajar.

Try living in the area and building in the area before you start speaking of things you seem to know nothing about.

Did they bother fixing the fuckup they did in RDP8 when trying to access Machines using RemoteFX? Using RDP7 you could easily pull a 20K+ score in 3D benchmarks, getting near-native performance, same hardware and RDP8 dropped that by HALF.

If they haven't fixed that, I'm not interested and I'll stick with Windows Server 2012 and Hyper-V combo using Win7 VMs.

" That's 15 million years to brute force, on average; what duration are you looking for?"

My 15-character password would take 157 billion years to crack.

Your 15 million years is a laugh.

"7,776 English words"

So, less than 1/40th of the English Language.

What a short surface for a dictionary attack.

Slashdot needs to get some real people with REAL technical capability on-board. Timothy obviously can't figure out that HughPickens.com is a complete fucking idiot that can't determine whether or not the stories are worth a fuck for reporting (plus, the fag is shilling in his username alone.)

Up to eight cores only?

That's fucking useless with my 192 threads and 37,000+ GPU cores.

Actually, that's not the case.

See, for my purposes, 7 is still superior to 8. Example - RDP7 connection to a hyper-V server using RemoteFX - 3D applications get DOUBLE the performance versus using RDP8.

Hoping 10 fixes this, but it doesn't seem likely due to how Microsoft changed how things got handled.

"But it is not like the serious drought happening now is a surprise to anyone."

Yep, it's cyclic, and we're just hitting the peak. This will change in about 4 years. Too late for much of anything to be done. Sure we're only NOW trying to build desalination plants, but you can bet that water is going to the rich people with lawns and pools to maintain.

Yea, no. Just about every lettuce type has little crevices you are not reaching to wash without breaking the entire thing apart.

We've had OAMM encoding and transmission of data for a while, usually coupled with quadrature amplitude modulation.

I've heard of slashdot being slow, but by at least THREE YEARS? That's got to be a new record.

Maybe you guys should start reading Nature Photonics.

"This "shell game" fiction happens to be the truth of the matter and historically has always been held up by the courts."

Wrong, and the state of California has quite often said "Uh, no, you've improperly classified your employees as independent contractors" using a set of criteria, all of which not necessarily needs to be met, for the standard of 'employee' versus 'contractor' to be determined.

Papa John's tried your same logic - that their customer hired the driver to deliver the pizza, not the employee (hence delivery charges.)

That failed miserably.

I guess you fail to understand that, and thus your intelliectual dishonesty shows.

You probably generate and transmit more procedural data versus a video stream, sorry to break it to you. You also introduce lag, which many of us don't like (and this would suck balls for those using sign language to communicate via video chat.)

"All vehicles must be stock. What bull."

As someone that lives in CA with a modified 750 Mercer (1950s Coventry Climax engine in it) I'm gonna say you're the one full of shit, child.

You just got pulled over because your shitty ass mods were INCORRECTLY INSTALLED. Like your fucking illegal shit-quality PINK HIDs with an excess amount of blue that hurts people's fucking eyes.

4 Cylinder at 900 horsepower? Man you're so full of shit even the noob tuners know better.

BTW We've got car shows with street exhibitions every other weekend. Tons of modified vehicles, all street legal.

Go try your lying bullshit on a FOX News forum, instead, fag.

They're running a bridge - they effectively fucked their bandwidth off the jump by not using a proper purpose-specific repeater.
