It isn’t that he shouldn’t. But the fact he is being so particular. About it. The guy clearly wants the same netbook with faster power and some updated browsers. However the netbook market was just a technology fad. So he is back to the following choices. Chrome book Laptop Desktop PC Tablet Smart phone Raspberry pi hack.
All are not the same as the netbook of old. But the netbooks didn’t last long on the market so their arnt any good replacement. He should just suck it up and get something different. If he is photo editing on a such an old netbook he probably isn’t using any tool that is too advanced and the stuff that comes with the alternative are just as good if not superior.
My 486 motherboard supported up to 32megs. But 16 meg system were for high end use. Pc came with 4 megs which was considered good. Then I spent $650 for 16 more megs to get X11 to run smoothly that gave me a total of 20 megs with my gigabyte hard drive I was really rocking.
In 1994 I was using Linux on a 486 DX 50mhz originally with 4 megs of RAM. I had upgrade to 20 megs a few months later, so I could use X efficiently. What can you do with a 486 Linux system? Probably more then you think. Just not as many things at once. You can run a web server, a database probably not both at the same time. However if you maxed the RAM you could get a lot done on slow CPU. If you checked you fast Computer most of the time your CPU is idle. On a 486 you can do nearly anything you can do on any other 32bit computer.
Linux systems are a collection of a bunch of small programs. That is why it can work for open source. Ideas can be forked new methods can be tried... most distributions like Red Hat just glue together all the open source apps into a full OS. I am not saying this is easy and not impressive. But for a chip designed it requires man hours of unified work. No compromises like if we should have vi or emacs of just putting both on there. You pick one and give no option to upgrade to the other.
How many bosses do you see calculating the time vs reward calculation? Not many. They will normally just use a gut feeling if it is worth it or not. At one job I had, the Boss gave us 2 weeks to have a demo proof of concepts in front of the customers. No matter how complex it was we had 2 weeks.
Such studies even if it points out something you know is true, you can actually quantify its affect. Because there are also studies that show evidence of things you though were true, to actually be false, or something that has little overall effect.
There is a difference between an Arbitrary deadlines vs no deadlines.
Often we will get a deadline, based on the Boss trying to impress a partner, or a customer, or just beat competition to the market. These deadlines are not based on what it would take to do the job right and best. However if someone went to me and say we need to solve this problem, I can usually give a fair ballpark figure on when it can be done by, and add some buffer for unforeseen problems, Then you can have a good deadline, where the project keeps moving and gets done, without stressing and taking shortcuts to meet it.
Well exactly what I expected would happen. Net Neutrality was a relativity simple set of rules to follow, but the ISP lobbied to get rid of them so they can make a ton of money charging fees for premium packets. However this benefit is now hampered because the ISP will need to follow different rules for each state, making it difficult for them to follow one set of rules, so it will rise their cost of business.
Granted you just need 51% to be leaning. But New York has about 1/3 of its representatives as Republican, and it is nearly 50/50 split for the Local government elected officials. Outside of the City there is a good red streak in upstate. California isn't that much different.
Being each State has a different set of demographics and needs, for the most part there should be more state rights. While this doesn't exclude federal powers that should be over reaching. A lot of these federal powers would probably be better served, if they took the money from a lot of the federal taxes and applied it back to the states based on some combination of land area and population for the amount for them to do with as they please. Because some states wouldn't have enough tax revenue for them to function, however with this external money they could be optimized for the states needs.
However I am curious. Chrome, seems to score highest on the HTML5 Compatibility Test, compared to other browsers. Perhaps they are using open standard features that other browsers just hadn't supported yet, causing it appear to be following its own standards.
That being said, usually services are designed to work with other browsers and keeping features a bit behind, as to support the general population. Telling people to use chrome is bad form.
Well being most men are doing the serious dating thing in their late teens and 20's. For the most part they are very clumsy at it, and so are the women who feel like they they need to respond to such behaviors. You can be all of it, however it usually requires a little more maturity, and less hormones.
The upgrades in newer electric cars are often more then just battery improvements. Changes to the engine, computer operation, gearing... Will add up toward extended life as well.
However while you can probably get a good battery replacement that will not cause any issues, I expect that would void any service agreements on it. Just because an improper battery type could damage the car, or just be overall dangerous. While toner and liquid ink printers can usually take 3rd party cheaper products. I am reminded of Solid Ink printers which seeing disastrous effect from 3rd party ink. It had a slightly different melting and solidification points. So it worked well for a few thousands prints. Then every time it cooled down, the Ink would drip to the cooler parts of the printer, then solidify, causing heads to get clogged, and paper paths getting blocked.
The problem with Dating in general, it is up to the guy to initiate the meeting. So the ladies often complain about too much traffic, while the guys complain about lack of responses.
So the guy that respects women will rarely get a response as they will sound boring, because they will be polite and respectful. While the jerk will lie and do whatever it takes to get noticed. So the women notices the Jerk.
If society approved the Woman and Men equally initiating the meeting, then chances are there will be a bit more equal chance of finding each other.
The $350 is the cost of the R&D of incremental upgrade covering the failure of designs over the past decade. The cost of revamping its manufacturing to print these chips, parts labor, share holder..... Then keeping a tidy profit per chip.
The previous work done had already paid for it self, so it isn't part of the chip price. Hence why we can get a relatively fast chip at a consumer level price.
The problem with rare drugs for rare problems. Is they cannot sell a lot of them to make up their R&D prices. However it is a problem with the system, where people with a rare condition, must pay more then they would normally make in a life time to pay for it.
Does this includes regulations against angry customers going to to their headquarters and shooting up the place? Of course not. The point of regulations is to setup a set of rules used across the industry to make sure there is a degree of fairness between the provider and the consumer. In high infrastructure industries such as ISP the choices for the consumer is limited. Thus in many areas choosing an alternative is not an option. In such areas where there is a near monopoly democratic government regulations are needed in order to help keep the general public to have a say in what is acceptable or not. Otherwise there will be a gap in the supply vs demand curve. Where there is a demand for services not offered, or price outside the range of the demand. Which in general causes black market activities. Which being difficult to manage because both sides are in the wrong.
Just as long as the ID requirement is fare to all people of different races and economic standings, and doesn't lead to improper tracking on who voted for whom. Not like many of the GOP ID Laws, which in general try to isolate the poor and groups who wouldn't vote for the GOP. By making getting the ID difficult, expensive, or inconvenient to those votes who may not have the resources to get such ID's
Issue 3? Do you just hate SQL, or do you have a real explanation why you shouldn't use SQL for real work? Granted you can use SQL poorly which opens the door for SQL Injection Errors, However a properly parameterized command, and well optimized stored procedures, views, with proper access controls can offer a very secure method of protecting your data and preventing extra information from leaking to the outside world.
If we have weather at a frequency well outside the normal 2 standard deviations. Then that is most likely due to Climate Change. Climate is a complex system, however we grew up to expect a range of patterns in different areas. If these patterns seem to be outside the normal for an extended period of time, then there is a climate change.
Temperature affects pressure, and due-point. So while a few degree world temperature change would not normally feel any different, it does push systems thousands of miles out of place.
In general the problem with the Internet as a news source medium. Is that we are fed information that for the most part we really want to hear. Depending on the sources our side is always winning or the other side is just comically failing. Or we will just avoid any painful information at all and just fluff.
Actually it is an analog single simulating the abstract concepts of bits. Which can degrade, get lost and how such changes and differences approaches to dealing with the issues can be well open to debate. If you want cheap then if the bits get lost then the get lost. If you want expensive you have the bits being processed differently.
