I don't really understand this argument. Why can't you do cool stuff in London, Ontario, and elsewhere just do whatever you can feasibly do? There's no technical justification for designing a national network for the lowest common denominator.
.. like the Obama administration forcing Boeing to cease plans for a plant in S. Carolina because S. Carolina is not a union state (that's right! The POTUS told a private industry that they could not open a plant in S. Carolina, a red state, because it was not union friendly enough).
Wait. I was at that plant earlier today, and now you're saying that it wasn't built? Who do I talk to around here about temporal discrepancies?
I mean like the elementary and obvious knobs and switches for protecting your infrastructure against v6-related resource exhaustion, rouge RAs, and every other issue that has long-recognised IPv4 analogues, and somehow were not thought important enough for initial releases.
Yeah, and when they end up being wrong, like a certain UN agency, they just push their doomsday dates back another 10 years. What does that remind you of?
I would be VERY surprised if there were parts in the plane that could just safely break down posing no risk whatsoever. Such parts wouldn't be there in the first place, now would they?
Take your home and your car as examples, think of how many non-critical parts there are in both of those that could fail without posing risks, and then berate yourself for every part you think of.
Your first question doesn't make much sense. All systems of a similar scale, and many much smaller systems have non-critical elements that are subjected to stress, and will fail over time. I'm sure I don't have to cite examples.
The guy is right. Why must they mention her race twice? Race wouldn't even have crossed the minds of those of us not familiar with the person, had it not been highlighted. Forget loud-mouthed bigots; this is true racism. For these people, race is considered relevant in everything as a matter of course, as long as the person of interest is a minority.
You can't really draw comparisons with Google. The model that Google are operating on doesn't attempt to make their regular end-users fork over money at ever junction; in fact, it doesn't even provide a way to pay for most of their services at all, unless you're a business.
Google make their money off of advertisement. It has nothing to do with "freemium."
Not incredibly familiar with Android, but does an unlocked bootloader not mean that you'll be able to load up a stock, vanilla OS, or at least be able to reach a state where you can disable the Sense UI?
What? You say that Apple in this case isn't determined to be the seller of the product, and then you say the complete opposite immediately following that.
Yes, the fine was levied against Apple as a seller of Apple products in Apple stores. Thank you for confirming that it is indeed safe to assume that Apple is considered the seller in this case.
The abstract doesn't even mention a manufacturer's warranty. It isn't misleading in the least. I also think it's safe to assume that Apple is the seller of the item, and that the "terms of business or the advertising for the extended warranty" was misleading, since they were fined $1.2 million USD.
SSDs of respectable make and model can be found as low as a dollar per gigabyte these days. Either you've never used an SSD in your daily computing, or you have a very unusual perception of value. An SSD as an OS/application drive is by far the most noticeable upgrade that you can perform on a current desktop computer.
For something as big as this, they usually use dumb layer 2 switches, assign a network to each row or section of a row, and let people pick their own IP address from a list on a sheet of paper. It works surprisingly well after the first hour if the organisers refrain from using 192.168/16 and 10/8.
I've been doing this for years, and while I get plenty of spam to addresses used at less reputable sites, I honestly cannot recall ever receiving any spam e-mail to addresses used for legitimate services.
Good choices. I went the same way, though with a GTX 460 1 GiB before the 6950 was released. Still waiting for a generation with a high-end card worth the asking price.
All Can You Run It? does is check your system against the minimum and recommended specifications. That's about as "broad" of a "testing service" as determining your eligibility to run a marathon by the number of legs that you have.
You're sort of making the case for doing things the way they're done. User input affects performance greatly, so how do you expect to have any sort of basis for comparison without running all the cards through the same sequence?
It's also right there in the article that these benchmarks aren't done using a timedemo, but a specific sequence in the game chosen by the reviewer.
So you contend that these corporations are following the rules by paying the people in charge to change them, and that there's nothing at all wrong with that?

If all U.S. federal and state government measurements were in metric, the social norm would be metric as well. The government dictates imperial.

Perhaps this would be a good time for Cisco to release software with even the most rudimentary of IPv6 security features.

The ISPs don't actually own those cables. They merely lease access from companies who mostly do undersea cables and nothing else.

You have a lot of naming to cover if you genuinely want to distinguish between instruction sets by name, rather than model number.
