Non-Uniform Memory Access means that it will take longer to access some regions of memory than others. This is due to the fact that some regions of memory are on physically different busses from other regions. For a more visual description, please refer to the section on NUMA architecture implementations. Also, see the real-world analogy for the NUMA architecture. This can result in some programs that are not NUMA-aware performing poorly.

The software does an anlysis of your iTunesDB file which is a database with info about all the music on your iPod.

We have decided to explore the vast field of functionality. We have chosen this name because our creations are useful in day-to-day life. The pieces of furniture fulfil a specific use, as each shape has been optimally designed with a specific function in mind. For example, the “to dissimulate the pyjamas” piece, with its soft, sensual, body-like shape that almost looks like bedding, is ideal for putting away intimate apparel without having to fold it.

High-Definition Television, or HTDV, is a new broadcasting standard that transmits television programs using computer code. These signals can carry a much greater amount of data because the information can be compressed and then displayed on a wide-screen format television. Televisions equipped to receive digital signals can display incredibly sharp, bright, high-resolution images and better sound, because the signal is able to support a wider range of frequencies.

It means subscribing new list members after some introductory dialogue, usually through email "commands" written to our cybertronic list-manager, whose faerie name is "Majordomo"; analyzing bounced messages to solve subscription problems; sometimes manually unsubscribing people who let their email box fill up, causing their faerie list email to bounce; staying aware of changes and goings-on at OPG/QueerNet and with the Majordomo2 software (see below); and other bits of administriv.

Our dictionary defines handmade simply as: “made by hand, not machinery”.

I said, it's valuable only to the Emperor. If the Emperor is a Noble, that means nothing. But if he's a Master, he will get a 20% bonus to his Omnipresence. As a Ruler he'll get 40%, a Colossus 60% and so on. The Empire should strive to organise themselves so that the Emperor reaches the highest rank possible. This way he will score high in the top lists, and will gain mana bonuses from the excess omni, which he will share to his empire. Don't. It's for veteran players only.

Ceramic is nothing new to brakes, there have been some ceramic fibers in friction material for years particulary for the Japanese imports. The definition of a true ceramic pad is one that is non-ferrous, contains NO IRON and NO LEAD - two great metals known for their stopping power.
