The DAB radio system was not adopted in the U.S.A. or Canada. The Canadian authorities permitted testing of DAB for quite awhile but eventually allowed it to die off due to lack of interest.
Instead, the iBiquity HDRadio IBOC standard was adopted in North America, which is a hybrid digital/analogue system that retains the traditional FM Radio band. While DAB and FM Radio occupy different parts of the spectrum, in North America you can think of digital radio as being a "superset" of the traditional analogue stations in the same band (IBOC means "In Band, On Channel).
So, a tuner with HDRadio capability and an old analogue FM tuner will both tune in the exact same station, but the former will process the digital portion of the station's signal in all its superior quality.
For broadcasters, the iBiquity HDRadio IBOC system can also be switched to 100% digital someday, but it is not likely to happen for a very long time if ever due to all the legacy analogue FM radios out there even in brand new consumer electronic gear. The automakers have come onboard with HDRadio-equipped tuners for the North American market.
Let's be clear that Tizen is actually the child of Nokia's and Intel's Linux-based OS that was known as Meego, which owed much of its existence to Nokia's Maemo Linux platform and Intel's Moblin. That's a lot of history, and Samsung has added more and more. Half-baked? What a bizarre term.
Brewmaster, step away from the tun and put your hands where I can see 'em. You are hereby charged with knowingly violating the Bavarian Purity Act of 1516.
Is it the kind of continuous beam that sounds like it is activated by an industrial elevator servo and emits a high-pitched screech even in space, or is it the kind that goes in segmented little blasts that go ptew ptew ptew and bounce off of bulkheads with little sparks?
Wow, having read the links I cannot find any claim in them to the effect that the new material will be a drop-in replacement for those. Hysterical much?
Just found this academic paper called "Influence of Vehicle Tilting On Its Performance" (PDF, 4 pages) regarding test results from what seems like a forerunner of the Mercedes design:
This adaptive suspension technology can be valuable for addressing poor roadway design, such as opposite-camber banking (yes, such things exist and can be very dangerous in poor weather). One of the most egregious examples of opposite-camber banking occurs in Canada between Vancouver and Burnaby, BC on Boundary Drive on which vehicles travel steeply downhill, typically in rain, and are presented with an opposite-camber dogleg turn about half the way down. So, while everyone is riding their brakes their vehicle suddenly gets crossed up. Since it is noticeably uncomfortable in a low-slung sports car, it is more than an annoyance on buses and in large trucks. Redesigning/repairing those poor roadways can take years, so any step by vehicle makers to have this kind of adaptable suspension is worthwile.
I totally recall when taxi drivers were homicidal psychopaths with mohawk hair cuts. Thankfully we will now have fleets of mannequins named "Johnny Cab" to cheerfully take us around.

Pwned b4 I even opened it!

Amazing what systemd can do!
I definitely did not ask about Microsoft.
I'm assuming that's original Nokia and not the cut-off body part that had been assimilated.
"600 bucks", they said. "You'll get new jeans", they said. Such a deal!
Because nothing works better than bribery?

2. Great craft beers
3. Great coffee
4. Proximity to Vancouver
Can't lose!

Neologisms confustrate everyone.
Vulcan Science Academy has been studying this going back to the time of Surak.
This is harmful to critical thinking and objectivity when a researcher is indebted (literally or otherwise) to any corporate entity.

Interesting results.
Greater driver comfort logically means lessened discomfort, therefore less sensation of control loss. Theoretically.

Agreed. You can lead /.ers to TFA but ya can't make 'em read it.
