Modern NT builds haven't really been using the HAL the same way either. It's been a pain because windows on arm kernels have been pretty tied to Qualcomm hardware so far.

Right, but a billion dollars to a relative small fry in the publishing industry (even online only) like the ny times is chum in the water. The next six publishers are going to be looking for $100B and probably have the funds for better lawy

They absolutely did. The PPEs were far too anemic to run anything like halflife on their own. Gabe Newell famously sounded off about how useless it was and wouldn't transfer to any other hardware, but he ended up being wrong. The arc

Eh, the Cell would have been a fantastic processor if it weren't for hitting the end of dennard scaling like a brick wall. In the design phase they were expecting almost 5ghz at launch, and to hit around 10ghz at the end of the product

Yes, he differentiates quarrels and arguments. He believes his wife is actually referring to a quarrel and and therefore her advice doesn't apply when it's actually an argument. My aside is that I haven't found the advice to

Haven't we known about massless particles warping spacetime for a while, hence how kugelblitzes work? It's not just mass that warps spacetime, but mass or energy.

The point of an MIRV system is flexibility. Yes, smaller targets might get one RV. But larger targets (the 'cities' under discussion here) are allocated whole missiles as a "cluster" as (due to the inverse square law) it

I mean, 10KT is a tiny explosion for modern nuclear weapons. You really only hit that by intentionally dampening the explosion with "dial a yield" weapons. A better representation would be the W88 at 475KT. That's what'

Likeness rights are a real thing, and it's not out there to have infringed on them by going to a famous person to use their likeness, getting denied, then using another actor telling them to copy the first actor's likeness. This i
