Three wheeled vehicles are bad. Even if they make good the vehicle will be crap. It will also be a deathtrap on US roads with a bunch of completely incompetent idiots driving three ton trucks and SUVs.

That would never fly. You just know that some dufus at the gym would bring a 10kg steel dumbbell into the MRI room and ruin things for everyone.

That is why I run memtest86+ for several days on new RAM. I once had an Infineon module crap out after about 2 days.

ECC on memory is 1-error correction 2-error detecting. On 3 errors it will just correct to the wrong value. I agree that the warning is nice (if your OS gives you one and you pay attention to it), but relying on the correction is pure foolishness.

State funeral for a felon? That would be a first.

But I am looking forward to reading the obituary. Always a good thing and cause for celebration when a fundamentally rotten and evil asshole leaves this world.

In civilized countries, suicide is quite legal. I am not surprised you apparently do not know that. Seriously, dude, think about maybe being less cringe and stupid?

And in Germany, this may be a "covert surveillance device", which is even illegal to own.

They tried, but quarreling parent groups couldn't agree on whether to teach the kids that they were coding with 3 registers or 259 registers.

Not that suprising with a software person.

With ECC, memory will go "bad" too, just a bit later. If you buy good quality memory, it will be fine for far longer than the time you are going to use it. Bad memory will overwhelm ECC way before that time.

AGI? Hahaha, no. The fake just gets more complex.

So now it can "confess" to being an incompetent asshole. Already more than the typical CEO can do, but still unusable.

I think that many of those people were also recent DOS users. Given that DOS systems would often simply freeze up several times per day and require a reboot (easy to do since any bug in the user's application could do this), once they added a protected mode pseudo-kernel to Windows (maybe starting with Windows/386 2.1), it was actually a slight improvement over what they were used to since DOS crashes could sometimes be isolated to one virtual terminal.

Win9x and Win2k (and the other NT descendants) are fundamentally different operating systems. In general, NT had a much more robust kernel, so system panics were and remain mainly hardware issues, or, particularly in the old days, dodgy drivers (which is just another form of hardware issue). I've seen plenty of panics on *nix systems and Windows systems, and I'd say probably 90-95% were all hardware failures, mainly RAM, but on a few occasions something wrong with the CPU itself or with other critical hardware like storage device hardware. There were quite a few very iffy IDE cards back in the day.

The other category of failure, various kinds of memory overruns, have all but disappeared now as memory management, both on the silicon and in kernels, have radically improved. So I'd say these are pretty much extinct, except maybe in some very edge cases, where I'd argue someone is disabling protections or breaking rules to eke out some imagined extra benefit.

The amount of Trump dick sucking surprises me, too. It certainly felt more intelligent 20 years ago.

Speaking of Trump dick sucking, did you figure out yet if he sucked off a CEO, a president, or a horse yet?

He's just being a typical American MORE BIGGER FASTER tool. I drive an 08 Versa with a 1.8l with 122hp and I have absolutely no problem being one of the fastest people on the road, because even a slow ass car by modern standards can do all the things. I never have trouble getting up to speed on a ramp or whatever.
