Comment using the OpenCL APIs is *noisy* (Score 3, Informative) 49

I question why anyone would go that route for writing malware. When you start using the OpenCL APIs, your graphics cards will clock up and leave their low power states. The graphics card resource utilization (compute, memory transfers, memory usage) is shown by monitoring tools such as GPU-z and command line tools such as nvidia-smi. You can't hide anything on the GPU.

Comment Re:Why do these reaction wheels keep failing? (Score 1) 28

Well you could secure the wheel using some rectractable bolts during launch. Only when in orbit you retract these bolts and then you turn on your electromagnets.

I found quite a lot of research papers on magnetic suspension of reaction wheels. I really wonder why this isn't mainstream technology yet.
