Weirdest one I've heard of was one where the PC sort of ran backwards. I can't remember the exact details but it was something to do with an interrupt occurring at the right (slightly-changing) frequency that it would get through

Not sure why this is such big news, it's been known for centuries that guys have two brains, and often do the thinking with the little one.

If you look at the right-hand side of your keyboard you'll see a key called "PgDn". You may use this to scroll through the article. Or, if you're using a fondle slab, just swipe to scroll. You're welcome.

Notes was very much a product of Lotus Development, a weird enclave that was nominally IBM but that made absolutely certain you knew that they were not IBM, a bunch of very booksmart people with very little street smarts and strong opinions

Interesting you should say that, friend of mine transited through the US recently (overnight stay before a connecting flight) after having not been there for some years and described the experience as "very unnerving". Since she w

In its defence, Sweden does have lutfisk, that's a pretty potent deterrent. Not quite as nasty as Norway's strategic surstromming stockpile, but still enough to deter invaders.

One minor nit, it's not halt-on-error, it's restart-on-error since the watchdog then restarts the system. The technical term for this is rejuvenation and it's standard practice in SCADA and similar to deal with this-shouldn&#

You can also get them from your preferred crapvendor for about the same price. Then get your firewall to intercept/spoof NTP responses and all your gear gets its time from your stratum 1 time source.

No, they're SJWs. Some of them may be black, admittedly, but mostly it's white people being offended on behalf of black people. And deaf people. And non-neurotypical people. And visually impaired people. And ... It's rat

If only they'd heeded the 2,000-year-old advice in Matthew 7:24-27: Therefore everyone who hears these words of mine and puts them into practice is like a wise man who built his house on the rock. 25 The rain came down, the streams

They've indicated that they're not doing HBM. Maybe due to process constraints, maybe because Chinese companies can look beyond the next quarter and see that if in five years time they own 70% of the non-HBM market the current inc

I also don't think it's a mafia state like, say, Russia is. It's just devolved into being a typical African country. Many years ago a South African friend of mine said "South Africa will end up like Zimbabwe, only it&#x2

Gee, if only we had some sort of other high-availability comms system we could use. Maybe divide the country up into geographic cells and put a transmitter in each one that sends out alerts to portable devices that people carry on them. You
