Something about renting furniture doesn't sit right with me (pun intended). I'd much prefer to be able to sell it back for a fraction of the original cost than to have to pay a monthly fee for my table.

I can't say this is never a problem-can't prove a negative-but my house is full of IKEA furniture, half of it bought used, most of it made of particle board like you say (although they do have nicer real wood products), all of w

You're essentially describing AMD's SEV[1] as mentioned in the article. It piggybacks on the memory encryption implemented in the Zen architecture by giving a separate key for each VM. Ostensibly, the host can't interfere or

It's unlikely that a basic Bluetooth speaker would even have an ADC to switch to, not to mention speakers without Chromecast-like streaming capabilities probably only have some tiny real-time operating system.

From what I understand the main concern with cow farts is the methane produced in cows' (and other ruminants') digestive systems, not carbon dioxide. Methane is a 25x more potent greenhouse gas according to the EPA: https:/&

Singularity heavily relies on capabilities. What if accessing the current wall clock time was a zealously guarded capability? I wonder what percentage of apps could function with no access to (real time) timers at all, or an extremely granu

In my opinion the line to draw is support for a privileged mode/protection rings/memory protection. Anything without that can run μClinux at best, which isn't much better than an RTOS. Without process isolation an operating s

A related method not mentioned in this article (or, in fact, many places at all) is iro3d[1]'s "selective powder deposition": a 3D printer effectively creates a mold out of sand, with empty spaces filled with a metal powder.

Chains of Git commits are already a blockchain - at least, already a DAG, and to be more specific, they are both Merkle trees. Internally, each commit contains the hash of the previous commit it was based on: $ git cat-file -p HEAD
