> As they currently exist both asm.js and PNaCl frontends are LLVM (...) I don't think it's fair to call LLVM a frontend for asm.js just because LLVM can compile to asm.js. By that logic LLVM is also a frontend for x86. That

Sadly DLNA is only for sharing and streaming files. If all you want is playing movies from your laptop, it should work. If you want to play e.g. something from youtube, it will work only if you find a player that supports DLNA. If you want

You could scrape them, if you want to. http://xkcd.mscha.org/ has direct links to all images (and cached copies and more). If you do, remember to upload the results somewhere.

Then you are using NAT as a simple firewall. You could have the firewall part without the translation part (or with deterministic two-way translation), which would eliminate 99% of problems. let me explain: A NAT "hides the network&q

You shouldn't have to go to Reddit to get a decent directory of my blog. Anyway, you can't; anything that makes it onto Digg or Reddit or del.icio.us is mixed in with everything else, and gets bumped down into oblivion by stuff that's newe

The USB spec defines maximum plug sizes and minimum port spacings, different for all connector series (A/B/mini x/micro x). USB A plug/device dimensions are specified as 16x8mm MAX, i don't remember minimum spacing between A ports and googl

"IKEA" is a network of many different companies. Some of them are registered as nonprofits (not charities) as a tax optimization which is probably what you are remembering. There is also the charitable organization that was mentioned above

A MRI machine is probably not included in the $99 kit. :) I was skeptical that simple, unguided tDCS could have significant effects so I searched some more and found a very nice overview paper: http://www.aipass.org/files/TDCS_State%20of%2
