How about hogsheads of electrons? Not sure exactly how many joules that is, but it's quite a few as long as you can keep them in the damn container.

Though I would imagine that it is many KWh that transfer in 30 min.

They have a higher ratio of Estonians to USians?
heh.

your sig is brilliant, given the context of this thread...

Even if it's completely locked in, you data isn't.

Simple really, if you have Intel hardware use this distro to take advantage of it, otherwise use the Apache one. No reason AMD or nVidia can't do the same...

Sure it is.
In this case it's something not even they would do, so it must really be out there in la la land...

Long term gains get the big break, short term gains don't, thus you are rewarded for not flipping stocks at HF rates, but being like Warren Buffet and buying based on long term expectations and holding a while.

I got promoted for doing that.
We had a completely *mental* process where we would get an XLS file and had to manually translate the tables of register names and bit positions into C structs.
Budgeted time: 2 person weeks.
I spent the two weeks writing a perl script that did everything I needed (ok, 2 hours, then the rest of the time making it do 'cool' stuff to the source code, and compiler, and source control, and....)
Total runtime of the script? 2.5 minutes.

Did this for a couple projects, turned in the changes same day I would get the XLS files. Boss thought I was doing something akin to faking it. Showed him the script, got a promotion 1 month later.
He asked me how I thought of doing it that way, told him I was lazy, this was easier...

I got to thinking though...
Two grounding rods and a sledge along with some wire.
Drive the two rods into the ground about 10 feet apart and a foot from the fence.
Connect wire from the rods to the fence.
Cut and enter as normal.

But this isn't a booby trap.
The fences have to be properly signed, and are only allowed in industrial zoned areas.

Frankly, I think it's a bit overkill, but I totally understand. A local yard was robbed of commercial sized spools of copper wire, had to cost a ton. Even worse, thieves have been opening the access panel on street lights and using their cars to pull the wire out.

Rancho Cordova (where this passed) has long been seen as a higher crime area, not surprised they're going to these lengths at all.

I'll plug good shoes instead of crap:
Ecco
Worth every penny. The one time I had a pair that I actually finally wore through the sole, they sent me a new pair.

They are branded on the boots, but it's embossed in the leather, and small.

Damn you...

Well played

but I think that's why they're mad at us right now...

Actually...

Much like:

Really...
I have bags of 30 and 72 pin simms, including IBM 3 tin can 256k 30 pin simms...
haven't looked in a while what they are going for, maybe it's time
