Please correct me if I'm wrong but in virtualbox all I see is two chipsets, one of which is explicitly advised to avoid unless needed.

That is some beautiful hardware porn. 16MB vs 512KB is only larger? Not gigantic or even extremely large in comparison to the extremely tiny cache? Oh dear.

The people will truly be able to be trusted with the ability to do their democratic duty.... You know, when 20% of the population of Canada elects a Majority government that can do whatever it wants for 4 years because of voter apathy, I&#x

OH but we have a metric crap ton of oil in Alberta! That should hold out for a few decades while we unscrew our economic situation.

If they could sell them at those prices, because of course resellers would be quite unhappy, I could imagine just about anyone making an effort to integrate them into their workflow. The surface would no longer be something to work into a r

I was at kiss within the last two weeks and you didn't hear the music, you felt it as your hearing slowly failed. I forgot to bring earplugs, something I would never recommend, and I could hear not a thing at the end of the concert. Th

pfsense is basically designed to take a computer and turn it into a high quality router. Very impressive, I recommend you check it out if you get the chance. Sadly it doesn't have any arm support whatsoever which is extremely disappoin

As proof, consider that a law in effect since 1992 requires annual audits of all federal agencies – and the Pentagon alone has never complied. It annually reports to Congress that its books are in such disarray that an audit is impossible.

It shouldn't be a hall of shame for companies being hacked, getting hacked is thing you can only mitigate not prevent. The shaming should be for storing your sensitive data in an insufficiently secure manner. If a company used scrypt t

Why are things illegal? In the most purely naive idea, it is because government is supposed to prevent us from damaging ourselves. Tobacco and liquor are damaging things, they are literally poisons. Caffeine is also damaging. I would be per

The issue is, for a person as old as your grandmother, learning even the barebones of how to use a computer can be a novel experience because they have had a very small chunk of their entire life to attempt it. This is following having acce

Why is this being upvoted? I will say it is a well written tutorial but the content is basically completely stripped from html5rocks. There is an overabundance of sites with this topic and a simple google will reveal that. I happen to know

Yes AMD, we all know you like your big numbers like core counts and clock speed. It'd, however, be just excellent if you could put out a product whose single threaded performance isn't garbage. I mean, thubans are beating your new

Wait, in what world would RSA be able to be broken with current tech to the degree that the NSA can decode it fast enough to make it essentially plaintext? I get the whole keeping it for later decryption bit but really, 4096 bit RSA is not

Communism is revolutionary socialism that seeks to break the system from the exterior rather than fix from the interior as your standard socialism would. Communism has the utter breaking of current society as the only method to obtaining tr

When the fellow who introduced the Patriot act goes against something in the name of American privacy you know you've crossed the line that is political suicide. And they don't have a 9/11 as an excuse this time.

I must say, that is a very powerful statement and I must congratulate you on your ability to sound exactly as a modern day marx might. Honestly, that rhetoric is phenomenal.

The thing about schools and computers is that it really is a losing battle on the part of the school. They wish to provide the students with easy to access to tech to allow them to become intimately familiar with it to advance in the world.

52k per year for an inmate to be incarcerated? That is just room and board? What? How can that work? Assuming you give the inmates decent food, you aren't paying off the compound, and you aren't making the guards rich, where in hell is that

What you describe sounds a lot like Stross's Accelerando with the development of ai melded with fabrication as a method of creating a sustainable environment for later space travel. A good idea but a very long term one in a world very focus
