The economics maybe, but the political will is another story. The business that I work for will not even contemplate cloud based anything. We use expensive 500gb tapes to take weekly backups of our entire site which are kept for 1 year. I&#

Indeed. All that stuff they've done in the past is just rubbish on modern vehicles. Who needs more that 2 valves per cyclinder anyway or disc brakes or...

I took anaracetam for about 6 months earlier in the year. Same as piracetam but non-prescription and only 3-4hrs vs 8+ duration. The effects were definitely there. More code, easier comprehension of code but also enhanced use of my vocabula

Ship engines produce a lot of power. Around 75MW. The size of the sails / solar / wind turbine to replace this would be...? You get the idea. As for carbon reduction, the engines already run at ~50% efficiency so there is little w

How is this a practical concern? The world gets destroyed as we know it, how to use a lathe is the least of your problems. Open your fridge, pick anything from it. Think of the supply chain and layers upon layers of society that was needed

I don't get this start button hate. For all the benefits of having a permanent start bar I will happily sacrifice 13mm off the bottom of my screen that I would probably just use as white space anyway. And I have had the option to auto-

Anti-sea protest laws at the request of Royal Dutch Shell, 3 strikes law prototyped for the US and the attempted inclusion of software patents at the request of IBM and MS to name but a few. And most obviously the GCSB law change.

The protocol uses time division multiplexing to solve the hidden node problem ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hidden_node_problem ) where two nodes can be transmitting at the same time causing a collision. They also ment
