for many people a 2400 sq ft house is still a large house. especially if it is a one floor ranch.
I would be willing to wager it is larger than the average home.
which a quick google search shows the average home size in the US in 2010 is at 2392 sq ft, with a median at 2169 sq ft. source - http://www.census.gov/const/C2...
I thought it was common sense not to plug in untrusted devices to your computer. Especially unknown thumb drives, unless you can use them in a read only device.
My contract just ended finally. So I am voting with my wallet and going no contract with another carrier and shaving half my bill in the process. There are decent phones out there for the cost of a "subsidized' contract phone that still perform well for mine and my wife's usage scenario.
well the assume anyways - other giant viruses are the same in that they only attack amoebae but this giant virus is also unlike anything they ever tested. The basically set the permafrost in a container and let it go to work. They didn't try other organisms. so their assumptions are partially based on the work of prior giant viruses.
no kidding my current HTC Rezound has the ability to put apps on the lock screen to view without unlocking the phone. Otherwise unlock for full access.
Here is the list of what can not be patented - Clause 13 - Patentable inventions An invention is a patentable invention if the invention, so far as claimed in a claim,— (a)is a manner of manufacture within the meaning of section 6 of the Statute of Monopolies; and (b)when compared with the prior art base— (i)is novel; and (ii)involves an inventive step; and (c)is useful; and (d)is not excluded from being a patentable invention under section 14 or 15.

and of course I re-read this and realize they meant also changing a webcam or keyboard to be malicious. Man I shouldn't post before my morning coffee.

Are these modeled after the moisture vaporators used on the moisture farms of Tatooine
TESO has 14,000 players? are you sure you are not inflating things?
I bet Hobby Lobby will make sure it isn't covered... Afterall we can't have a corporations err person's religious rights trampled on.
yes but there is still the private signing key that allows for trusted uploads of new (possibly compromised) versions.
If the dev's decided to go full Lavabit mode after getting a NSL for the keys. So instead of letting people know that specifically they did this.
Also in the new version they removed all of the code to encrypt data, only the decryption remains.
at least there was no COBOL.
because COBOL is the devil and it raises taxes
woosh
Kentucky solved this by today reinstating the Electric Chair as mandatory when the lethal injection drugs are not available

It just takes micromanagement to an entirely new level. No thanks to these.
Did the fire also damage the grammar capabilities as well?
One thing they all have in common is the resolution.
So 2560x1600 27"s only exist in my imagination?
um yes... those would be the 30" models...
I may get flamed for this but screw it. This would explain a lot of the issues we see from the Congress Critters.
9 Million x 100 = 900 million not 9 billion
math fail!
if it was $20 profit per phone that would be $180 million profit
When the NRA, EFF, ACLU and the author of the [un]Patriot Act are all against it.
