@BloodPhilia Haha, no prob. It's for recording (multitracking) music. You can hook eight microphones to it and record them simultaneously. It has pre-amps built in so you don't need a huge mixing console.
I'd seen a swarm of near pointless edits, but I don't see how editing and flooding the front page was necessarily bad, Gareth pretty much owned the front page for months
@Mokubai The point is, after Gareth's retagging, we've become a bit more sensible I guess, which is why it hasn't happened ever since, but kino … well … ignored all warnings and "STOP" messages.

Server & Power Consumption Information The average Google.com visitor visits about 11.9 pages before leaving again, this means that their servers handle about 2,809,151,140 page views per day and in term a total of 32,513 page views per second.
We estimate that this website uses 7,869 server(s), and with the average internet server using about 2,400 kWh of electricity per year, Google.com will use more or less 18,885,600 kWh of power in that time span. Looking at the average cost of 0,17c per kWh, this website uses an estimated total of $3,210,552 USD on electricity per year.
From what I've seen, unless the site has a country-specific superdomain, like .co.uk or .ru or something like that, chances are its traffic is dominated by US-based hits.
Oh, this is a separate thing from when falsified certificates got through...

@BloodPhilia The main advantage in my opinion, which keeps me from going back to Firefox, is the fact that Chrome sandboxes everything using process isolation. That way if a tab or even plugin crashes, it won't bring down anything else but itself.
Flash could crash but you can still browse the page. Nothing else is affected.
IIRC, Firefox has been promising something similar but has yet to deliver (but I stopped keeping track a while ago, to be honest, since I'm happy with Chrome)
@BloodPhilia Sure :) People do complain that it creates additional resource usage due to all the processes spawned, so if you have a system with low memory, it doesn't make a good lightweight browser. Just to be forewarned :P
I believe so, but servers that do expect to serve many connections at one time will generally have some system in place that forwards connections to other servers or ports, until it hits a max number of connections.
Programming is like a passion for me... it's weird. It's not that it's fun, I just get so absorbed in a project that it eats up my life. I'm good at it and I don't hate it so it's all good.
Programming is on some level fun, too, but it can be more stressful than fun on occasion.
It's a love/hate thing for me. I love being productive with my Ruby scripts, but when I need to do some C++/Java stuff for university, that's a different story.
i want to build a gaming desktop pc. And i want to buy an AMD Phenom II processor ( 4 or 6 cores ) and as video card, i thought an ATI RADEON HD 6850 will be wonderful. I want to ask what kind of processor do i need in order to play all games on ULTRA ( ex. Battlefield 3, Call of Duty MW 3 ). Fir...
@BloodPhilia I mean, with new users, fix their posts once, then they learn … but I've seen some that really seem to be forgetting that there's this little neat code button :P

You could always ask it politely.
