There actually shouldn't be any issue at all with the motherboard testing this. Just set a flag in the EEPROM that your testing the C6/C7 states, and try it, if the CPU exits C6/C7 with the flag set, it passed. If the system goes through

Window's console app has nothing to do with the ability to run DOS applications and the bit that actually does, the DOS virtual machine, doesn't exist on 64-bit versions of windows.

As a counter point, I honestly see 'movies' somewhat dying out. Shows like Game of Thrones, House of Cards and several others now have the same production quality as movies and aren't hamstrung by the same limitations. e.g. how do you tel

Another issue is that ZFS is extremely aggressive with caching data in ram (L1ARC). That can eat up memory you'd rather give to the database heap and also tends to skew benchmarks.

He seems to make the mistake of comparing damage done to response instead of potential damage done to response. The two suspects, after settings off anti-personnel bombs in a civilian area, executed a police officer, then got into a firefig

By 'cell' I meant the overall pack, not the individual unit within the pack. From your link: "A full recharge of the battery system requires 3½ hours using the High Power Connector which supplies 70 amp, 240 volt electricity" Multiply that

You still need to convert this high supply voltage to a lower voltage to match the cell voltage for charging. The currents involved mean this converter is still likely to dissipate a lot of heat, even if it is extremely efficient.

I really like JetBrain's stuff, I use it every day. That said, one annoyance with it: When you have a personal license, it does a network check to ensure that the license is only in use on one machine on the LAN and locks out other instance

In short - No its not a very good file system. Even ignoring the licensing / patent issues with it, its non-journaled and only has a single FAT in most implementations; Its easily corrupted and difficult to repair. It also lacks a number

I've played with this and am not getting anywhere near the -Xmx set for the JVM and producer flow control isn't kicking it. Load on this broker isn't very high either, 5k to 10k messages/day, all messages << 1KB.

They mention transactions so I would assume they are using InnoDB in which case you have to have a primary key, if you don't define one InnoDB will either use the first unique not null column it finds or failing that, create one using the i

Unfortunately I doubt that would work very well, even thunderbolt 2.0 is no where near the bandwidth of internal RAM and more importantly for many applications, the latency would be terrible.

Many modern games take a long time to produce, 3-5 years is not uncommon for AAA titles. I also wouldn't say they haven't released a game 'for years', there has been at least 1 title a year, a ton of DLC for older games, porting games to l
