* April 10 – Because of the plague, the Edinburgh town council orders that the college graduation ceremony should be brought forward so that students can leave the city ( on November 19, teaching resumes in Linlithgow ).

Because the botulism toxin is destroyed by high temperatures, home-canned foods are best boiled for 10 minutes before eating.

Because of the sudden death of Emperor Shijō at the age of 10, the question of succession arose.

Because of the War of 1812 and the lack of U. S. fur trading posts in the Oregon Country, most of the route was unused for more than 10 years.

Because of its large number of tiny granule cells, the cerebellum contains more neurons than the rest of the brain put together, but it takes up only 10 % of total brain volume.

Because of these measures, Hill not only stayed in business, but also increased the net worth of his railroad by nearly $ 10 million.

Because of the cloud stripping strategy the effective rainfall can be doubled in dry seasons and increase the wet season rainfall by about 10 percent.

Because of this, Apple's computers, which were billed as having built-in Ethernet, were actually rather expensive to connect to Ethernet, perhaps adding as much as 10 % to the total price of the computer system.

Because approach number four is often based on hardware mechanisms and avoids abstractions and a multiplicity of degrees of freedom, it is more practical.

Because of this, many higher level kits are sold with little or even no hardware, to allow the drummer to choose the stands and also the bass drum pedal they prefer.

Because of the diversity of hardware and operating systems, drivers operate in many different environments.

Because of Unreals long development time, the course of development occurred during the emergence and rapid progression of hardware 3D accelerators.

Because most WorldForge servers are run by volunteers without strong bandwidth and hardware capacities this direction also has practical reasons.

Because the encrypted communication is out-of-band, the PC ’ s hardware and firmware receive the magic packet before network traffic reaches the software stack for the operating system ( OS ).

Because the server usually needs low level access to graphics hardware, on many configurations it needs to run as the superuser, or a user with UID 0.

Because the processor has duplex hardware, one active side, and one standby side, a failure of one side of the processor will not necessarily result in a loss of switching.

Because of its enormous economic importance, CAD has been a major driving force for research in computational geometry, computer graphics ( both hardware and software ), and discrete differential geometry.

Because of performance differences across the hardware range and delays with software development, a whole family of operating systems were introduced instead of a single OS / 360.

Because the algorithm is very simple, it is often implemented in either the firmware or the graphics hardware of modern graphics cards.

Because it implemented its own compression software designed specifically for non-linear editing, the Eidos system had no requirement for JPEG hardware and was cheap to produce.

Because small devices such as cellular phones have hardware restrictions such as lower memory, low-power CPUs with limited or no storage capabilities, small monochrome display screens, single-character fonts and restricted input methods ( the absence of a keyboard or a mouse ), there is a need for a simpler form of HTML.

Because of the additional text processing and resolution independence capabilities in GDI +, text rendering is performed by the CPU and it is nearly an order of magnitude slower than in hardware accelerated GDI.

Because it is a mature format, needs no special hardware on modern PCs, and natively offers random-access to any frame, M-JPEG support is widespread in video-capture and editing equipment.

Because frames are compressed independently of one another, M-JPEG imposes lower processing and memory requirements on hardware devices.

Because of this simple software layer, the VistA software architecture has been able to adapt to changing hardware environments over the decades with only the minimum amount of software changes at higher levels of abstraction.

Because of this, it is used for piping, heat exchangers and condensers in seawater systems, as well as marine hardware, and sometimes for the propellers, crankshafts and hulls of premium tugboats, fishing boats and other working boats.

Because the WebTV client was subsidized hardware, the company had always required individual subscriptions for each box, but with the subsidies ended, MSN started offering free use of MSN TV boxes to their computer users who subscribed to MSN, as an incentive to not stray to discount dialup ISPs.

Because it was capable of film-quality output on commodity hardware, ElectricImage was popular in the movie and television industries throughout the decade.

Because the Coupé did not run at exactly the same speed as the Spectrum even in emulation mode, many anti-piracy tape loaders would not work on the Coupé hardware.

Because of the shrinking hardware business, suppliers began to make the challenging transition from a hardware-based business model to one based on software and value-added services.

Because the SG-1000's hardware was very similar to Coleco's Colecovision console, Telegames was able to produce a clone named the Telegames Personal Arcade in North America, which can play both SG-1000 and Colecovision games.
