9000 USD is OK. When you get OVER 9000, it's ridiculous.

No. I think what he meant was that let's say people are willing to trade X ISK or whaever it's called for 1 USD, and the spaceship is 9000X ISK therefore it might cost 9000 USD. The conversion/trade I suppose doesn't alw

That theory sounds bad, man. I'm an bi-lingual Asian from a relatively older age compared to you (10+) and have been living in the US for quite some time. The 'imagine' part only happens when one is still relatively bad at the language that

Sure... But then 20 minutes for a 100 miles even with not much things to do is good to me! The problem is less likely the distance but availability of charging stations.

Did anyone notice that the first link on ... "Since 2005, Flickr has become synonymous with inspiring imagery." ... was actually linking to flick.com, but not flickr.com? Edit: In fact the second link also links to flick.com.

Last time I tried installing Linux (/Ubuntu) on a Macbook it was a balls cooking experience with the combination of NVidia and Intel. Pure intel HD might be better, but why do I want to solve those problems in the first place?

I need my balls not to be cooked by the power-hungry processors. I need a light shit because I walk with my backpack a lot. I need the key layout on the keyboard not a pain in the ass. I need my palm to be like little Fonzie. What Fonzie li

Of course if you never plug anything in, it will stay up for a long time. The problem arises when there are things being plugged in and out. Many USB devices don't work with the Pi. It's pretty picky. pi@mia ~ $ uptime 15:40:15

No I don't have a power meter. I know the Black works on a USB 2.0 port of my laptop and my desktop too, so it uses less than 500mA. From my experience working with Ti's stuff, they are often pretty good about power consumption though. My m

Sure enough... It might be possible to host the site on the Pi itself. However, I think that's probably risky. My main concern is that the Pi is powered by an Ethernet controller that is connected to the USB bus, and it might drop out in sp

Yes. I'm the kind of guy who couldn't care less about retina screens (they don't look that much sharper to me)... but definitely can tell the difference that IPS screens make. In contrast with the TN LCDs that you buy that requires tuning t

Because it is upgradable. You just have to have the expertise to do it. Soldering a SMD component, while not exactly something that everyone can do, is indeed doable. Disclaimer: I can solder some SMD chips...

There are several things that puts the Chromebox ahead: 1, It is as small, slick and quiet as a Mac Mini. 2, It is designed to run Linux. 3, The hardware is backed by Smasung/Google. 4, It has a freakin' SSD? Unless you're compiling AOSP or

It'll be a very capable PC or thin client if that's at all possible. I wonder how feasible it is to put a Linux distribution here and get it working. I know it is possible with the Chromebook, and if it's gonna work for the Chromebox, then

I'm unsure about the first one, but the second one is no way can be true. Diplomatic problems aside, it's technically impossible. Google don't write the drivers for those phones, manufacturers/carriers do, so how in hell can Google sneak in

The way Gtalk client deals with unreliable connections is perfect. I don't have a 3G plan so I often walk around my campus roaming from one hotspot to another. It doesn't use the regular jabber of you notice. Also SSH without a physical key

Linux is designed to people who want a computer, but aren't willing or capable or spending enough for Windows or Mac. Also Microsoft and Apple haters as noted. Your level of ignorant is amazing.
