When traffic gets slow, I love getting behind a semi. I might not get up to speed as quickly once I'm past the problem area but I can maintain close to the same slow speed for a long time. It makes the situation much less stressful.
Sadly enough, getting passed on the right can't be reason alone for a ticket. While I was moving, I had to block traffic with my car so my parents and my stuff could move back over into the left lane. They passed a slow truck and everyone was so impatient to get around they just started squeezing by on the right until I got in their way.
It isn't just OSX. Videos stutter on my Windows laptop more and more often. I can watch an HD video in Windows Media Player with power to spare but can't watch some Flash videos that only take up 15% of my screen and have 1/4 of the quality.
If you want to turn this into a car analogy, try this: Sticking with EDGE is like putting FIAT tires on a Lamborghini. It doesn't make sense until you realize the Lamborghini probably won't be driven beyond narrow side-streets(EDGE) where racing tires won't perform any better to the highways(3G). But this Lamborghini is carrying a different set of racing tires and they come in handy when you are at racetracks(hot spots).
Does ZFS really require that much memory? I don't know how to not make this sound trollish, but that should shut people up about Vista being bloated. Imagine their complaints if Vista's file system required that much memory and then you had to load everything else, on top of that!
I understand what you mean. I figured that if it was included with the stable version, ZFS support is probably very good and just has a couple minor issues.
Looks like I hit a nerve! Overrated and offtopic do not mean disagree!
"Offtopic -- A comment which has nothing to do with the story it's linked to (song lyrics, obscene ascii art, comments about another topic entirely) is Offtopic."
"Overrated -- Sometimes you'll run into a comment which for whatever reason has been moderated out of proportion -- this probably means several moderators saw it at nearly the same time, thought it was Funny, Insightful etc, and their scores added together exaggerate its relative merit. (A knock-knock joke at +5, Funny) Such a comment is Overrated. It's not knocking the original poster to say so, but it's probably better to spend your mod points on comments which are deserving of being moderated up."
A digital negative is usually a RAW file. Basically, it contains the raw image information, just like a negative. You can then use that raw information to edit the image in ways that can't be done with an image that has already been processed.
All you've made clear is that you are so full of shit it is oozing out of your ears. I think I might just hunt down every bit of copyrighted work you've produced and sell it as my own. Thanks for doing the hard part for me!
Can you come up with any other examples of using a circular motion to scroll? A scroll wheel on a mouse isn't a valid example because the finger movement is still essentially linear.
I can do that just fine. One movement meaning something else is stupid when there is no apparent relationship. If I move my mouse right, the pointer on the screen moves right. The mouse pad is simply a horizontal representation of a vertical screen. What you are saying is it should be no more difficult to drive a car that brakes when you turn the wheel right than a car that turns right when you turn the wheel right.
Turning a circular motion into a linear one is an easy concept, it just isn't usually seen in computer. I, for one, have never seen a circular scroll bar.
It doesn't make sense because the only thing I've ever used that scrolled using a circular gesture is an iPod and even that didn't make a lot of sense. Making one motion to create a different motion makes no sense. Besides, the running-out-of-real-estate-while-scrolling problem was solved a long time ago. My 4 year old laptop know to keep scrolling if my finger reaches the edge of the touch pad.
The only problem with your reasoning is you are assuming the pieces will be in a stable orbit. Satellites have motors that they use to maintain orbit. These pieces will be very close to the atmosphere without a motor and will fall out of the sky very quickly.

I guess I forgot to mention that this was while traveling down the highway, not parked.
What rights does one loose?

The summary says it has ZFS support but the website says experimental ZFS support. That seems like a pretty important distiction.

Does any of that look familiar?
Oh wow! A .2 release. Vista has been around a long time, too. If the rule is to never use a x.0 release, why would you use a .2 release?
You can go on after after you explain what a volume knob scrolls.

You're right. You haven't created anything that is worth money.

You really are an anonymous coward.
Just because it is viewable by the public does not make it public domain. You should leave. You clearly don't know anything about this discussion.

That probably only rarely happens. I know lots of people that didn't have total privacy as children that talk to their parents all the time.
I'd say their quality control is working fine if they aren't releasing a service pack so they can fix it.
It isn't even vaporware. It has to be a product, not just a concept, to be vaporware.
