Wouldn't this be the using a VCR for data storage thing that was done way back in the day? The higher resolution would allow for greater data density but this seems like a problem that largely is solved. Just needs a bit of reimplantat

Nearly all those in and around politics are vermin. Including Trump. We all know that, that's why we don't trust them. What really would concern me more is if he starts referring to vast swathes of the electorate in such terms, or

I'm not sure what you mean by "many pins". USB C has 24 pins in it. HDMI has 19 pins, DVI has up to 31, old parallel scsi has a lot, but modern SAS is 31. USB C seems to be comparable to others that carry similar signaling.

But here I am in Indonesia right now just south of the equator, and the women are wearing pants. Not all, but most in the city do and nearly none of the locals wear shorts even to the beach. The point is that your assertion that dresses are

False analogy, are you trolling or thinking you've made a brilliant point. Pants can be functional regardless of season. Maybe your experience is in your limited area but clothing that covers much of the skin is common in many of the

Of course anyone could be monitoring SMTP that's not encrypted. It possibly could be your VPS provider but that would be quite obvious if they then started a dictionary attack against your accounts. Now on the other hand these service

It would be interesting to see how this holds up in the US market. I've always held an assumption that the more driver assist doohickeys on a car makes the drivers worse. More expensive cars usually have more doohickeys than less expen

Now they just need to define AI. Because we already have weapons that can be given a picture of a target and a search area. It will then look for its target and find it.
