Its not quite UNIX style - it works like a weird frame selection instead of follow the text LtR like any *nix console I can think of. It would be super if that could be fixed as well with an option.

Well any GPU you upgrade can be used in our next system. That said there hasn't been much movement there in the last 2 years or so since the rx480 came out. I agree with the ssd, tho. The newer PCIe based ones in the m.2 formfactor are

I think there a physics problem there. The efficiency is way worse than charging almost any type of battery. So unless material for any type of battery becomes completely unavailable (including say Iron and sulfur or lead), the power free a

While we don't strictly need fusion it would be nice to have. We cannot easily generate all the power we need when and where we need it from renewables. we can generate a significant fraction of it tho. Plus for space based applicatio

Yes, only even the absolute best case for utilizing hydrogen takes more energy than for a battery powered system. I am talking physics here (I am discounting creating hydrogen from biomass or oil here for obvious reasons). And even if you s

If you assume that physics works the same on other planets then carbon-based life is simply the most likely simply from the chemistry we know about. Speculation about say Si based life isn't new but nobody has come up with how that typ

well, AFAIK we still have no idea whats actually needed for life to form. Also the conditions for life were better on mars in the past so its entirely possible that life existed and kept on going on mars.

okay your google-fu seems to be stronger than mine. At least all elements mentioned in the original comment are there even the stasi-IM.

there are indications that the Romans were far better at seeing a good idea an copying it than innovating.

I think it should be extended again. How else can dead authors and musicians be incentivized into creating new works?

Its useful to make the distinction because in western culture at the time there were functionally very few scholars outside the church. At the time there weren't even any Universities at all.

So you are one of these "current year" people? Also I want to point out that your assumption of gender from pure appearance is abhorrent.

wow - <sarcasm>This technology is the future</sarcasm> - as per the article each plant sequesters about 11 Cars worth of CO2 each year. Since there are currently about 1.015 billion motor vehicles (lets assume those are ca

If you accept that the US Government didn't lie just told the least untrue thing it could then it fits. It just turn outs the former is identical to the latter in most cases.

Newer washing machines have less concrete in them that before - My guess would be that in the past the water tank would have been to large to actually fit the machine. I also wonder how the plastic will stand up to the vibrations. You might

- I did the math on the battery issue that based on some figures I had for energy cost of battery production including mining of resources. I went with a figure of around 110mj of energy per 1kwh of battery. The result was an estimated ~24k

Its called "Fachinformatiker". Its basically a lower tiered version of the University CS degree. Its what is felt to be needed to be taken serious as an "IT-Person" in Germany. That said nobody ever asked me for that Pie

When Windows 95 was the Mainstream OS 32 MB was what most people had and 64mb was plenty. Most people used PCI or VLB 2D graphics cards. There was simply not enough memory on the board for IGU. Most PCs had not even got USB by that point.

I used to use them as well - but I had some fail for some reason and then I bought a samsung evo + card in 32GB during a sale. I have been using those ever since since the iops seem to be noticeably better.
