Not gonna happen.
My S3 has plenty under the hood for me. Double up on that, and there will processors getting awful lonely.
Unless someone is into serious online gaming, I really don't see a use right now for that much processing power.
 
Then again, when we got our first computer, they said we would never find a use to fill up the space on the hard drive, plus there were floppy disks! I mean, come on, why would we need all those megabytes? Now it's terabytes and people are using them! Who knows what they will come up with to use all that processing power.

I wish school officials would do something about bullying instead of suspending kids for a non-issue

My school didn't do a thing about bullying. We had to stand up for ourselves and since I have autism, I was a frequent target and I couldn't stand up because of the bullies.
 
Screw the schools.
I teach my children to fight back if someone puts their hands on you, and to make an example of them. I have been called to the schools more than once, trying g to tell me that even defending yourself lf is against school policy. I have told them under no uncertain terms will my boys be allowed to be targets, and if they want the problem solved, to tell others to keep their hands off mine. They have been taught to not start trouble, but if it comes their way, defend yourself.

Stat... the most abused word in a hospital. I wish the word was taken out of the dictionary. Then maybe we could really get an idea of how important something is.

Example...

K'Lin, could you please send a tech to the OR, we forgot to put in the order. We don't want to appear incompetent to the surgeon :egg: , so we would like you to send someone as soon as possible.

See, then I would know, it was not that important to you to follow orders and therefore, you will impose your ignorance on my system.

Big difference from the Aortic aneurysm that is rupturing in the ER and they actually need my staff to diagnose and treat the patient so he doesn't die. That is actually STAT!

Hallelujah! or when I put STAT on an order, they get around to it when they feel like it, and require a phone call to light a fire under their arse because the kid is crumpin' on the table!

When I was a boy, 99% of my fights ended either being broken up or with the other kid on the ground. But the only fights I ever felt like I won were the ones where no one threw a single punch.
Defending one's self with fists is fine and dandy, sometimes necessary. It doesn't do anything to "solve" the actual problem though. One might think that they "taught the other guy a lesson" and "he'll think twice before messing with me again" but nowadays it just means they're going to bring their buddies, or a weapon next time. Physically beating someone in a fight does nothing to change their mind, it only solidifies the mistake of thinking that violence is OK, that it is the answer, the only way to resolve issues,or that it makes you a bigger man, a better man, or tough.
The only way to win a fight is to change the other person's way of thinking, even if just a little, by making them think, not making them hurt. If you can convince your enemy the don't want to attack because they see humanity in you as well as themselves, or the foolishness of pointless violence, or (best yet) if you can make them realize that the only reason they want to fight you is because of their own insecurities or failings, then you have won. Even if they still kick your butt. If they walk away and can't get a nagging feeling out of their head that they shouldn't have done that for a moral, spiritual, ethical, logical, or even egotistical reason, you have won. If they EVER think about fighting or bullying in a more just light, even if for just a moment longer than they would have otherwise, you have won. This is the best way to "make them think twice" before they do something stupid like that again, and the only way to "win".
