I hate to install any kind of crap that isn't needed.
My 10$ mp3 allows me to share my music with people with no need to install or buy any additional devices. I can use it at home, in my car USB radio (and the player gets recharged), at work (I don't have admin rights to install stuff),...
Of course this might not be an issue for you, but I like to share my stuff and use it wherever I go.
All I want is Motorola hardware with... someone else's OS. Frankly, so far they all blow.
I know I'll either get flamed or modded +5 insightful, but I would really consider getting an iPhone. There's only one thing that will keep me from doing it: I want to be able to remove the battery from my phone. If I can't swap out my battery if I drop my phone in water or replace it on my own, then I don't want that phone.
You want a player that is not recognised by the PC unless you install some dodgy rivers?
Funny thing is, the mp3 player for 10$ doesn't need any driver and works with Mac, Linux or Windows.
I'll try thanks, but I doubt it will solve anything. If the process is single thread all it will do is bouncing it around on all the cores, but it will never use more then 1 core at any given time.
"In May, a virus in a banner ad on tomshardware.com automatically switched visitors to a Web site that downloaded "malware" -- malicious software designed to attack a computer -- onto the visitor's computer. ScanSafe Inc., one of the first security firms to discover the virus, estimates the banner ad was on the site for at least 24 hours and infected 50,000 to 100,000 computers before Tom's Hardware removed it."
So explain me, how going to tomshardware.com and getting infected is user stupidity?
No need to guess, from TFA:
"The National Children's Hospital interest in myostatin is not to create super strong children, but to help those children whose muscles have already atrophied. Muscular Dystrophy (MD) affects thousands of children in the US who slowly lose muscle and rarely survive into adulthood. Follistatin gene therapy could serve as a method to extend their lives or perhaps even reverse the symptoms of their conditions. Likewise, the eldery are susceptible to several diseases that lead to a loss of muscle strength and coordination. By blocking myostatin, we may all be able to live with the strength of our youth even as we age into our 80s."
Of course they say his.
Think of the children is way better then, we will help body-builders cheat they way to the victory.
This is my reaction too. Also, what is the cost of having to maintain all these muscles? Do you have to eat more than the normal person? Do you lose all your fine motor control?
The human is the best animal in the brain department. Why don't they try to improve what we're good at? Why compete with the Gorilla?
Only if you want to be like Hulk.
You know, you could just take the right amount and be a fit person without the need to do exercise. Ok, you steel need to exercise, but you know what I mean.

Now check your auto-start and see how many Adobe shit is auto-loading every boot.
Hell, probably the reader doesn't even stop once you close your PDF but is still running in the background.
I'd rather have a virus then an adobe application.
I agree.
Some people should get the +5 Troll, since they are right, but in an irritating way.
Your problem is not PDF, but your PDF reader.
Change it, you will see how fast it can be with a proper application.
Oh, and it's not only the reader, everything from Adobe is as slow as humanly possible.
Sheer lack of mental motivation to change what you use.
Nothing new.
Well, maybe some Adobe fan will tell you that some obscure functionality is missing from Foxit Reader.
Thanks for the info.
Meh, how do you rate someone +5 Troll?
:)
The post above me clearly classifies as righteous bastard.
Stop giving facts, no one cares about them.
I read body language in Brail.
Got to remember this next time I chat with a nice girl.
Let's see how good can this robot read a politician.
:)
If it is any good it will get banned in seconds.
It's always the same story. Scientist are left alone to do their work until their findings have political repercusion.
If the truth doesn't suit the current political view it will get you burned.
And more I'm into GW the more I see it as religious fight.
Don't get me wrong the iPod is a great device, but the fact that Apple tries every dirty trick to lock me in makes me hate them as much as I can.

But I don't have a Micro SD card reader, I do have an USB tho.
So you see, you can share your music only with people with Micro SD card readers.
An what about generic USB devices? I can use my 10$ MP3 player, but the iPhone doesn't work.
All I want is Motorola hardware with... someone else's OS. Frankly, so far they all blow.

Fuck lock in hardware or software.
Apparently they are excellent hackers.

Is any of your core maxed when you play WoW? If it isn't the game is just bouncing the process across the CPU cores.
Good to know.
I'll try thanks, but I doubt it will solve anything.
If the process is single thread all it will do is bouncing it around on all the cores, but it will never use more then 1 core at any given time.
I'm talking about "craziest raids", 40 man PvP and mayor cities 30min before the raid.
I want 60FPS or I don't play the game.
I get 30FPS while my CPU is at 60% load.
My video card is fine and never goes above 20%.
I don't need eye candy, I'd like to play at 60FPS. But since it uses only 1 core and 20% of the 2nd this is not possible unless you have a 4GHz CPU.
I'm talking when a lot of people are in the same place of course.
Ok, how many player is EVE hosting?
There are technical limitations to how many people you can have one 1 server.
How many people can EVE handle in a single instance and how many can WOW?
P.S: Any news about the graphic engine update? Last time I tried WoW (1 year ago) it could only use 10-20% of the 2nd core.

Windows is insecure by design.
