Re:Wireless charging hit mainstream ~ 1-2 years ag
I doubt it.
If only you knew how to use google then perhaps you would be informed.
Yes, the prototype is grossly inefficient. And yes, the final product will also be grossly inefficient. But for very small devices like watches, it makes perfect sense. You're only going to need to deliver small wattage to them anyway.

Re:Why postgres fails
Are you retarded, my dear sir? If you look at the link you posted, a bit above, you have table of what values you can fit in those datatypes. Not hard to figure out. Creating a cluster is not something obvious? No, I guess it isn't. Maybe you should go RTFM or use a distribution that does that for you.
As for unsigned integers and you not being able to figure it out... Please stick to MySQL, thank you. -

Re:How to recover data from a damaged disk?
I'm not sure if maybe there are companies that, say, perform such services for a fee.
The list, provided by Kroll Inc.'s Ontrack Data Recovery unit, illustrates some of the strangest and wackiest things that people put electronic storage devices through on a regular basis.
That's from the second paragraph of the article. Didn't get too far, did ya?
Google has 222,000 results for 'damaged disk data recovery'. Think maybe one of them might help you out, or provide that 'hugely beneficial' service 'to the computing community'?

The different versions and URLs
- 8.42
: is currently *being* released, links are not updated everywhere. But a few google request may bring you to forums where it is already available. For exemple, Phoroinix have published a link to the driver they did test. I think the release is not official yet because of the reported problems with 2.6.23 kernel. The same google search can also bring out patches to circumvent those problems and even howtos about using the new AIGLX for desktop compositing. - 8.41
: Is the previous release. It was mainly centered around bringing RadeonHD support on linux. Thus some bugs may have managed to slip by with older chipsets. IT IS available on the ATI website. But it comes with a caveat explaining the situation, that this driver is mainly targeting Radeon HD and that it's "use at your own risk" with previous chipset generations. You're still free to try it on X800XL if you want (Phoroinix did it in their). - 8.40
: is the latest release using the older code base. Currently it is what has been the most widely tested and debugged for older chipset, so that's why it's the first thing you land on. - There's a nice wiki about ATI on Linux, with distro specific pages, links to the latest bleeding edge versions and such.
GPL drivers are currently standard on most distribution for cards up to R4#0 (Radeon X8#0). If you want bleeding edge you can get them from freedesktop's git repository.
GPL drivers for R500 and up are currently being created. You can get the currently couple of working pieces from its corresponding irregular devel companion.
You either have to wait more time until it's trivially offered as the first choice on the ATI selector (for the binary drivers) out of the box with major distros (for the GPL driver).
Or you have to accept "bleeding edge" mean, understand that all those drivers are fresh from the oven, not thoroughly tested thus maybe not ready for the public at large, and that you need a little bit of google before assembling the necessary pieces, or use specialised resources like the afore mentioned wiki. - 8.42

Re:Students Not Second-Class Citizens
Granted, most of my firearms purchases have been from private individuals (some at gun shows), some relatives, etc....so, there is not waiting time, no requirement for ID, etc....and best of all...NO RECORD.
In California you must have a handgun safety cert or an exemption thereof to purchase a handgun, regardless of where it is purchased, and all handgun transfers must be reported to the state.
The only time in my life I've ever registered any kind of firearm was when I got my concealed carry years back, and in AR, they did require you to list the weapons on that license.
AFAIK all CCW permits require listing the weapon. I think in some places you even have to pay for a firing and storage of a spent projectile for ballistics matching. But I don't have a CCW (yet - if I move out into the boonies, and I've looked at land in a location which would well be described that way, I will begin to carry.)
Other than that...I've never had to show a 'special' ID of any kind to own or purchase a firearm...even at a commercial site. Never registered a gun either, although I've heard some states require that....anyone know which ones do?

Re:I want a refrigerator
Phone calls. This may be because I'm from the US, and we get the crap phones here from what I hear. The UI on these things gets worse every year.
I'll agree with you there. The UI is completely terrible.
I wish there were "open" phones with a free SDK so I could make the UI worthwhile.
Samsung
Motorola
Nokia
Simply google: <mobile company name> Mobile SDK
My current phone is pretty simple, so I can tolerate the numerous issues I have with it, but are these people on crack when they program these things?
Yes... They really are. It's amazing how impossible they are to navigate.
My phone is paid for by my employer and is "part of my job", I don't want or need a cell phone personally.
I am a mobile developer and I think that mobile phones are an excellent way for people to get things done while not being required to be tied to a specific location.
...The contact list is purely alphabetical, so I either have to bastardize someone's name that I call frequently to put it on the top of the list, or scroll down past the numbers I don't use frequently to get to the number I use frequently. Oh, but I could use the voice recognition to call right? ... The two color LED would be perfect for this notification, but instead, its only used to tell me that the phone is on by obnoxiously blinking or that the phone is charging
I used to run into these issues with my Motorolas all the time. Most phones have a pretty nice one touch dial function or good contact search features.
... There are a slew of unintuitive icons on the top of the screen, and I guess I have to look at the book to know what those mean.
RTFM
The settings don't have any information about what the setting is used for. For example, under System/Select System it says "Home is B" and the three options for "Selecting the system" are Home only, Automatic A, Automatic B. So WTF is "Home is B"?
Google is wonderful - First and third results aren't bad.
I'll give you that cell phones are no-where near where they should be and that cell phones could really use a tune up but I think that the technology is quite amazing. People tend to forget what they have and because technology is so powerful these days some technology gets given a bad wrap. I think the many additions to phones are great and I look forward to the next evolution. I can be in my car and type in a street address and it gives me directions, driving time, and distance. In addition I can pick up my phone and call the office if I am running late and I can depend that I will have service. That is innovation and I'd rather it continue rather than be cut off.
In response to the actual article there is always they threat of virii and the chance that poorly (or well written) code will have an exploit. It is something that will always arise. However I don't think that the exploits in the mobile realm will be that much more destructive than the ones in the computer industry and I will be happy to continue upgrading my phone and supporting new technology. It's all down to people protecting themselves and with our network I feel very safe. Having said that I do think that cell phones will soon be involved in internet worms. -

Re:How to market!?
Well....what exactly is the 0-60 mph of the Honda Accord?
Maybe you should look here before asking questions whose answers are so easy to find.
The only commercially available vehicle that is what you describe is the T-Zero. 0-60 in 4.1, 13.2 second quarter mile, all-electric. They sell an ugly little generator trailer you can pull behind your T-Zero if you want to look like a retard, too. Last I looked at their site much they had some nice videos of a T-Zero beating some Carerra (maybe a 4) and a C5 Corvette Z06 or something.

Re:amen to that
I've had -very- little trouble with getting support a few times that I've had a genuinely difficult problem. On the other hand, I made sure of two things. I had made SURE to go look for the answer myself, and try any relevant solutions found by googling or searching the forum. In most cases, this -does- solve the problem, no further effort required. On the other hand, when such things didn't work, I did go ask for help. Each time, I made sure to mention "I found solutions x, y, and z on google/forum x, but when I tried it it (did nothing/caused a different problem/etc.) This not only saves the experts' time and yours (they're not suggesting things you already tried), but showing that you were willing to do your own homework before taking up someone else's time is always going to make someone more favorably inclined to help you.
On the other hand, I've seen as many people sent to the best self-help website on the net for asking about obvious Windows problems as well as obvious Linux ones. It's frustrating to answer an obvious question 500 times, when the answer is the first search result on google. That's true whether you're supporting Windows, Linux, or anything else. Especially when doing it for free.
As for the people who "don't want to learn anything about computers, dammit!" Fine. Don't. And don't use them. Or at least don't hook your soon-to-be zombie up to the public Internet. We don't let people who "don't want to learn a thing about operating a car!" drive one. This doesn't mean you do have to know how to rebuild the engine, but it DOES mean you ought to know how to change a flat and stay on the correct side of the road.

This is NOT the NYT ...
This is a site for geeks, and most readers are regular readers.
The Acid2 test is not something specific to konqueror, it's a test for browsers in general, it has been covered here a lot lately, just search, or read the site more often.
Safari is based on Konqueror, Apple publishes it modifications of Safari and people tries to backport the useful ones to Konqueror. There has been troubles about this, since apple does a few things that make it hard to reuse the code, again, you are either trolling, or you really don't read slashdot, has been covered before, ___lots___.

Re:Server batteries
I've often wondered why there aren't servers with batteries built in for a few minutes of power after the UPS goes down.
spend less time wondering and more time doing research. Some of IBM's AS/400 systems (whatever-series, now) have a built-in UPS; they are sold as a complete computing solution for businesses. Just plug it in, and compute.
Or, you know, you could try a google search, if that's not too much trouble.

Re:Additional Info - Trusted Computing
I'm a programmer and I've read the technical specifications. The number one design requirement is to deny the owner access to his keys, the number two requirement is to
Is there a website which annotates (or "fisks") the TCPA specs to more directly map the technical features to the practical effects they'll have on networked data transmission?
I'm personally tired of people complaining "remote attestation isn't really in the spec" or "you can change/disable your key if you really want" and repeatedly composing similar replies. It'd be nice if they could find answers from google, but it doesn't appear to have good references indexed.
The existing TCPA FAQs seem too vague, on the level of marketers, not programmers.
And without the key you cannot read or alter any of your files except as permitted by the Trust chip and system software.
Just a miscellaneous prediction from me: 5 years after the TCPA rollout (simultaneous with the Longhorn launch probably), a free program will come out which includes schematics for a small hardware device to emulate a keyboard. This program will be installed on a non-TCPA PC with a camera, and it will send keystrokes to a TCPA system, photographing and OCRing each page of each file on it, eventually creating DRM-stripped copies of all the data.
One year after that, TCPA-approval will be revoked from all programs whose GUIs don't include a system to detect repetitive keystrokes, to fight back against that workaround.
