I've heard success stories of transplanting platters into the same model working drive, maybe this is worth a shot?

You can - try something like this: parseInt(getComputedStyle($('#seconds'), ':after').top)/-76 (see https://gist.github.com/alexlouden/7481780 for full)

I think the rare occurance is not a collision with > 25 tons of force, but an upwards force on the underside of the car by an object capable of piercing 1/4 inch plate steel (and not ricocheting, as I suspect most debris would). A j

I'm also on ADSL2+ in Perth, my area isn't going to get NBN for the next 3 years. When I've finished moving house I'll open up my modem and have a see if there are similar power noise problems - I've got some decen

I always thought the reason iterators are used in preference to lists was due to the memory advantages, not the performance.

I'm with you - most of the units in my course could be passed by simply memorising formula and procedure. I had a conversation with a final year electrical engineer with a high distinction average who had no idea what a relay was or ho

Another thing could be to lock the dock - my grandmother occasionally accidentally drags icons off the dock, resulting in her calling me because the Internet has disappeared.

My original idea was to run mining while the game doesn't require the full use of the graphics card - i.e. rendering at 60fps requires 40%, bitcoin mining could use another 40%. If the scene is more taxing and requires 70% of the GPU, minin

The Avalon ASIC can perform 68,000 Mhash/s which is ~110x more powerful than a 7970 GPU (at ~600 Mhash/s) at around 3x the cost. It's obviously better value for an individual to buy an ASIC than a bunch of GPUS, but I think you could still

Could this be a source of income for indie game developers? While users play the (free/cheap/torrented) game, the users graphics card spends its spare cycles on mining for the game developers. No obnoxious ads, no paying $60 for a game you
