The HP Universal is the default for all Ethernet HP printers. Try finding a different driver for anything built after 2009, even the $10,000 color laserjets.
God that driver is a piece of shit. Dell has a "universal" print driver too, and I have never gotten it to work. The closest I've gotten is getting it to list a connected printer.
The only people that think that the last batch of emails demonstrated any kind of fraud are people who have no fucking clue what the fuck the emails actually said.
Intentionally manipulating data or statistical summaries of data in order to achieve a desired result is the absolute antithesis of science. The last batch of emails showed this practice is rampant.
Believe models that have never predicted anything correctly. Trust data that is manually manipulated, incomplete, inaccurate, disparate, and only goes back a blink of the eye in terms of the planet's history. Trust statistical manipulation of said bad data. Trust politicians whose only concerns are money and power, and whose only "solutions" involve shifting money and power, and not reducing consumption or pollution, or building things that are actually green, like nuclear and hydroelectric power plants. Believe that man is the cause of the current trend, and that man can do something to stop it. Believe that the Earth will be doomed if temperatures rise closer to points in Earth's past, despite the fact that throughout all of Earth's history, higher temperatures are when life flourished.
Global Warming, Global Climate Change, Anthropogenic Global Warming, Anthropogenic Climate Change, or whatever other bullshit labels you want to try out, is NOT an environmental issue. It is a political issue.
She didn't think she'd get that level of response and cause spiraling labor costs. Prepared food has a pretty impressive margin and 75% probably wouldn't have hurt her too bad if it didn't require extra labor hours/personnel which drove the cost of making the cupcake through the roof. Just a guess though.
I bet she's still making money anyway, or she's simply retarded. Anyone who was losing money (or would have lost money by hiring temps to fill orders) would have turned people away saying "Sorry, we're sold out.". And if they wanted to be nice, they'd offer rain checks.
Now she moans about it to the telegraph and any other rag that will listen. She lost about $40,000 (USD) during this promotion, but her normal price is $40 (USD) for a dozen cupcakes. I think she can handle a $40,000 hit. I've never even been to the British Isles and even I know this is your typical "White, Middle Aged, Middle Class Woman Has Something To Moan About" story.
Hell, I think she deserves it - fuck stupid trends. There are three separate "reality" shows about cupcakes that I know of (Cupcake Wars, DC Cupcakes, The Cupcake Girls), as well as Sweet Avenger, a 12-episode series about vegans shitting on your cruelty cupcakes. Then there's Cake Boss, Ace of Cakes, and all the other generic cake-themed shows.
We all know about 6 degrees of Kevin Bacon. Introducing: 3 degrees of politics. "Any topic can be connected to petty squabbling about politics in 3 statements".
6 Kevins?
My home town nearly went to zero Kevins back in 1978.
It was a particularly cold winter, and we were already down to 3 Kevins (due to their low popularity at the time).
Kevin Thomas had flown out to be with his son's family for a wedding and got stuck in Boston for a whole week due to the weather. 2 Kevins left.
Kevin Lemmer was rushed to the hospital during my shift. I still remember the call from the EMTs as the ambulance was rushing toward us. "It's Lemmer. He's in bad shape. Drove right into the fucking ditch." We called the time of death at 6:15 PM.
At 6:16, all eyes turned to room 2217. Kevin Spencer was 82 and on his death bed with leukemia. His family being Catholic, he had already been given his last writes. If he couldn't hold out until Kevin Thomas returned, we would be at zero Kevins. Sure, we had 4 perfectly healthy Calvins, but they're just not the same.
It was 7:15 when Carla Brooks and her husband James burst through the main entrance. "She's not due for 2 weeks!", James exclaimed. As the staff bustled around getting the Brookses settled, they exchanged darting glances with each other. This was their first child, and they wanted to keep the baby's sex a secret. Of course, in a small town, secrets don't get kept. Nearly all of the hospital staff new that the child about to rip open Mrs. Brooks was indeed a boy.
The delivery was routine, and Kevin Brooks was born healthy, if a tad underweight, at 10:52 PM. Kevin Spencer was pronounced dead at 10:54.
It was, as they say, a close one. Kevin Thomas arrived two days later, the weather having finally cleared up. To this day, we still rib him about it.
By "plain ol' RGB" I mean "plain ol' RGB". 3 octets per pixel. That's it. Let it be mapped fully to the native space of the output device.
If the user is on Adobe RGB or sRGB or whateverthefuckelse, and you were on something different when you made it that's their issue. It's also their choice. Unless you're in industry, you don't tell users how to view shit. Two pixels of the same value should always display exactly the same on the same output device. If you are in industry, then obviously you need shit to be output on their end as it was on yours. But for 99.999% of users, differences will be inconsequential, and for 99.999999% of users, the difference will never be noticed.
A few PC DVD drives are capable of reading the Wii discs, but odds are you don't have one that is.
You need a USB loader channel and either an external hard drive, or a SD card with enough free space to hold the image. Dump the image and physically move it to your PC.
Or you could just download it from someone else who's done the same.
Images have colour profiles too. An RGB triplet in two different images is not necessarily meant to look the same. A browser cannot show images correctly if it does not handle these.
Absurd. Color profiles are for input and output devices - monitors, printers, and scanners. If you're creating assets with a color profile, that's great, but when you send them to others for viewing you absolutely need to convert to plain ol' RGB. If you're sending it to a printer, then yes, ship the color profile with it.
The video component of Digital Cinema Packages (DCP) for commercial movie theatres (digital cinemas, as opposed to the "traditional" 35mm film cinemas) is a stream of JPEG 2000 images.
And since I'm not producing or distributing those digital movies, I don't give a fuck, I'm fairly certain the people who are producing those can either:
- Pay a licensing fee if there is one in the future
- Switch to a superior, free/cheaper video codec
With a few bucks and a decent PC and you can play in HD. I don't have a compatible Bluetooth chipset (at least, it's not on the compatibility list), and I don't want to rig up my own LEDs or candles or what not, but for about $25 (price of a wireless sensor bar and compatible bluetooth kajigger), I might give Dolphin a shot for Skyward Sword.
"Some mobile equipment, such as laptops, netbooks, and tablets, are stored in a special “high-value” area behind a chain-link fence that’s been erected within the warehouse itself.'" "
Prediction: Multi-million dollar tablet heist within 6 months.
Seems to me that new fangled $1000+ Intel CPU is much more valuable and much more mobile. Or those PCI-Express SSDs. Or server-grade RAID controllers.
Why not be honest? Instead of calling it a "high-value area", call it "shit our stupid employees would like to steal" area.
What's the difference? What is the difference between something being a "mathematical description of reality" and being real? I mean you can go back and forth between if numbers are real, etc. Have they discovered something "more real" than they previously thought?
Math is the study of patterns. Physics is the study of reality.
We use math to describe physics. Our current quantum math tells us what will happen. Our best quantum math is currently probabilistic. All our finest measurements can only give us a guess as to what will happen. The math describes what we see. If the wave function is a result of a real, physical thing, we can potential learn more about the real, physical thing, and perhaps measure that, and get take that into account in our math, thus removing all the probabilities. All the quantum fuzziness could go away.
Because if the "wave function" is a real object, then there is no probabilistic nature to quantum shit - it just means we are currently unable to directly measure the "wave function" without "collapsing" it. If it's not probabilistic, all the fuzziness of quantum physics goes away. Schrodinger's cat is dead, Einstein was right when he said God doesn't play dice, entanglement is horse shit, everyone who works with string theory is a moron, etc.
That's only about "access control measures", and not about what everyone ever, uses to protect their access control measures - encrypted and copyrighted keys. You can "reverse engineer" all you want so long as you don't try to find, or generate on your own, a copy of the key. Any such attempts are, of course, futile and pointless and amount to basically nothing. Under the DMCA, you can't reverse engineer anything that uses an encrypted or copyrighted key. The only exception to this has been when courts have granted people permission to do so for compatibility in cases where the original vendor is kaput, and when a stupid judge thought an iPhone was somehow a unique class of device.
Remember the whole PS3 thing? Absolutely zero progress despite Geohot posting bullshit fakes and useless "hurr durr I electrocuted my PS3 and about 4% of the time it crashes in a different way but still yields no useful information". Then, out of thin air, a magic little USB device appeared that let you boot your PS3 into recovery mode. That thin air, of course, was someone stealing it from Sony and passing it on to some hackers who created clones of it. Sony went after anyone and anyone who tried to sell these keys wherever they could under the DMCA or similar laws (they had a few big hits in Australia, for example). Hackers then proceeded to use these devices to reverse engineer the PS3 (get at keys). And DERP! Every PS3's key was the same! So people did not need the dongles anymore. Sony then went into full litigation mode against anyone distributing those keys.
If the DMCA allowed people to reverse engineer the PS3 as you saw fit, they wouldn't have all been advised by their lawyers to STFU and settle.

WAH! I'm stupid! I'm stupid! I'm stupider than you! I'm stupider than you in every way!
Your lyrics lack subtlety. You can't just have your characters announce how they feel! That makes me feel angry!
They are a pay porn site, even if you get off on the previews only.

Because the Obama administration is the most corrupt presidency in modern history.
It's like he took "Can't be worse than Bush" as a challenge.
Thanks Obama for all the meaningful change!
