Ethernet has not been the choice for low latency interconnect for the large cluster HPC crowd for decades (that would probably be Infiniband and/or RapidIO)....

May (or may not) be successful in avoiding the minefield (as you say, it is complicated). AV1 already has an organization (Sisvel) offering a patent...

Depending on the age of the vehicle, the fan is activated by a thermal sensor on the fan motor, so only was powered when needed (i.e. the heat from the...

Virtualbox claims to support UEFI booting. Do you have open cases with Oracle?...

There are such processes. For what should be obvious reasons those processes include multiple steps and validations to insure that, indeed, the individual(s)...
