After all players have brought their closed hands above the table, they all then open their hands to reveal their choices: for example, no chips in the hand means the player is declaring " low ", one chip " high ", and two chips " swing " ( both ways ).

As nutritional intake guidelines were created in various countries and the nutrition facts label became commonplace, consumers, advocacy groups, and health organizations have focused on the nutritional value of junk foods, including potato chips.

In the general timeframe of 2010 to 2012, stores in the United States have been featuring potato chips labeled on the package as " Kettle Cooked.

Some companies have also marketed baked potato chips as an alternative with lower fat content.

Additionally, some varieties of fat-free chips have been made using artificial, and indigestible, fat substitutes.

Some RS-232 driver chips have inbuilt circuitry to produce the required voltages from a 5 volt supply.

Modern chips have up to eleven metal levels produced in over 300 sequenced processing steps.

Modern slot machines are controlled by EPROM computer chips and, in large casinos, coin acceptors have become obsolete in favor of bill acceptors.

The RTE client does not have a general purpose operating system-it usually lacks shells ( terminal windows ), is not designed to be patched ( updated online ), has minimal connectivity to external resources, and is often found in read-only media ( e. g. tamper-resistant ROM chips, CD-ROM, etc .).

As a result, computer chips have become the state's leading export.

Saccharomyces yeasts have been genetically engineered to ferment xylose, one of the major fermentable sugars present in cellulosic biomasses, such as agriculture residues, paper wastes, and wood chips.

Perhaps a key to the initial success of the Z80 was the built-in DRAM refresh, and other features which allowed systems to be built with fewer support chips ( later on, most Z80 systems have been embedded systems, which typically uses static RAM and hence does not need this refresh ).

Extremely cheap to produce and far too small for jewels, the results are hoped to have numerous commercial and industrial applications such as in computer chips or cutting instruments.

As the cost of computer power to the consumer falls, the cost for producers to fulfill Moore's law follows an opposite trend: R & D, manufacturing, and test costs have increased steadily with each new generation of chips.

Numerous organizations have developed, or are developing, flash memory chips with collections of educational materials for off-line use in smartphones, tablets, and laptops.

Many FPGA vendors have free ( or inexpensive ) tools to synthesize VHDL for use with their chips, where ASIC tools are often very expensive.

Deep-fried chips ( slices or pieces of potato ) as a dish may have first appeared in Britain in about the same period: the Oxford English Dictionary notes as its earliest usage of " chips " in this sense the mention in Dickens ' A Tale of Two Cities ( published in 1859 ): " Husky chips of potatoes, fried with some reluctant drops of oil ".

Standardization of the TTL levels was so ubiquitous that complex circuit boards often contained TTL chips made by many different manufacturers selected for availability and cost, compatibility being assured ; two circuit board units off the same assembly line on different successive days or weeks might have a different mix of brands of chips in the same positions on the board ; repair was possible with chips manufactured years ( sometimes over a decade ) later than original components.

One limitation ( also afflicting the Intel Pentium III ) is that SRAM cache designs at the time were incapable of keeping up with the Athlon's clock scalability, due both to manufacturing limitations of the cache chips and the difficulty of routing electrical connections to the cache chips themselves.

The chips were also liked for their undervolting ability.

The eye in the sky usually makes a video recording of the table, which helps in resolving disputes and identifying dealer mistakes, and is also used to protect the casino against dealers who steal chips or players who cheat.

Translucent Bakelite jewelry, poker chips and other gaming items such as chess sets were also introduced in the 1940s under the Prystal Corporation name, however, its basic chemical composition remained the same.

If a player is playing don't pass instead of pass, they may also lay odds by placing chips behind the don't pass line.

A more speculative, more complex " chip factory " was specified to produce the computer and electronic systems, but the designers also said that it might prove practical to ship the chips from Earth as if they were " vitamins.

Thanks to a well-designed set of chips designed by MOS Technology, the Commodore 64, ( also referred to as C64 ), possessed remarkable sound and graphics for its time and is often credited with starting the computer demo scene.

The custom-designed and custom-built AGA chipset also cost Commodore considerably more than the commodity chips used in IBM PCs, further reducing Commodore's profit margins.

Professor Paul Ilegems, curator of the Friet-museum in Antwerp, Belgium, believes that Saint Teresa of Ávila fried the first chips, referring also to the tradition of frying in Mediterranean cuisine .< ref name = demorgen_schoetens1 >

Brushing the teeth, flossing, undergoing dental work, or eating crunchy foods such as potato chips relatively soon before or after giving fellatio can also increase the risk of transmission, because all of these activities can cause small scratches in the lining of the mouth.

IRIX also supported OpenGL for graphics chips and Image processing libraries.

ISI also created the world's first e-commerce site, MOSIS, which produces specialty and low-volume chips for corporations, universities and other research entitites worldwide.

However, IBM already had a history of using Intel chips in its products and had also acquired the rights to manufacture the 8086 family.

IBM also later manufactured 386 chips under license.

Fairchild Semiconductor was also home of the first silicon gate IC technology with self-aligned gates, which stands as the basis of all modern CMOS computer chips.

The MC6800 microprocessor was part of the M6800 Microcomputer System that also included serial and parallel interface ICs, RAM, ROM and other support chips.

Dedicated on-chip hardware also often includes capabilities to communicate with other devices ( chips ) in digital formats such as I²C and Serial Peripheral Interface ( SPI ).

Media include book discs ( which can also be read with a book reader, and allow highlighting and marginal notes ), data cubes, data discs, and chips.

Plastic chips are also available, at a wide variety of quality levels.

In a casino setting, lammers are also used to indicate which variant is being used, whose turn it is to pay the blind etc .., and lammers are also a name for " chips " awarded in satellite tournaments as buy-in chips to larger tournaments.

An aggressive player, especially one with a large stack of chips, might reraise, also known as re-steal, someone he knows might be trying to steal.
