BadBIOS was supposed to communicate with C&C systems using sounds inaudible to the human ear that could be picked up by the microphone of a nearby (also infected) computer. Hence 'airgapped" (not connected to the network) comp

tl;dr: There were too many paralegals relative to the number of judges in the department. The paralegals had no authority to work on cases that hadn't been viewed by a judge. There was in fact a vast backlog of work, but the bottleneck

NVidia doesn't make displays, so unless you're expecting them to move into that market, your comment doesn't make sense. (Doubly so because this is hardware, not software.) I expect NVidia to license this to monitor manufact

Regarding the drawing delay on older devices: Is there no way to start that process concurrently while the countdown is running? It looks like you could perform 50%-75% of that work before the countdown even finishes.

Okay, OpenMPI will help you with clustering multiple Parallella units to work on the same task. AFAIK it won't run on the Epiphany itself, so you have to look elsewhere for that.

Right now you basically need to either use C or OpenCL. (I'm not familiar with OpenPI and Google doesn't pull up anything that seems relevant to this conversation.) If you're not proficient in C, I would recommend the OpenCL

The name "server", "desktop", and "embedded" are marketing terms. They're all the same CPU. Uh, no. The embedded version features the Zynq 7020, the others use the Zynq 7010. The server version i
