standards

http://physics.nist.gov/cuu/Units/binary.html

standards are created for a reason, lamons

if you dont know the difference between binary and decimal prefixes

thats a failed IT education right there, and you should ask your money back

(and beat up your dumb IT teacher too for being such a failure)

but i'm not surprised when there are still countries using body parts as measurement tools lmao.

Commodore 64 may come back as Warren Beatty

Grave

pointless

c64-type of computers evolved into notebooks, there's no point going back to half-notebook.

notebooks do everything this new c64 does and much more

Fear 2012? Bunker hustler has you covered

Grave

outdated

design seems pretty outdated, like using swinging doors in underground shelter, medical facilities not accessible from anywhere, stairs, single entry/exit point rooms, etc

you just dont grab surface facility design and cram it underground

TB vs TiB

1 TB formats as 1 TB, if your OS shows less, blame the OS for reporting incorrect values

and learn the difference between binary and decimal prefixes.

its 1000 GB with decimal prefixes but 931 GiB using binary prefixes (you cannot use decimal prefixes for binary numbers - learn the difference between GB and GiB)

1 TB = 1 000 000 000 000 bytes

my hdd is actually showing 1 000 201 977 856 bytes so in fact i've got 200 megs for free

Apple's panties in bunch over Microsoft ads

Grave

what girls?

"And, in a number of spots, Long gets the girl"

should be "Long gets the boy" as crApple is just a fashion accessory for gay folks

"Moral of the story, Linux guys get all the girls..."

wishful thinking, its more like "gets action from his girly hands..."

SI

tonne is not recognized by International System of Units (SI), proper SI unit for a tonne would be a "megagram" (7.7 million kg = 7 700 Mg = 7.7 Gg - gigagrams)

(ironically only three nations have not officially adopted the International System of Units as their primary or sole system of measurement: Liberia, Myanmar and United States - welcome to 21st century?)

its important to use international standards esp. in science and space research to avoid errors in calculations because of different systems of units (this already caused several critical failures)
