spending the remaining 6 hours doing their own thing?
What remaining 6 hours? I mean - most of these employers want you on salary so that you're exempt from overtime pay. So you don't even owe them a specific number of hours.
Of course the reality is more often getting assigned multiple times more work until it requires overtime to complete it.
With as much as fuel prices fluctuate, you'll save far more by buying on the correct day rather than from the cheapest station. Around here, that tends to be Thursday mornings.
I've owned games longer than 5 years that I've never played - I'll eventually catch up. There is at least one game that is almost 20 years old that I intend to play but haven't. Unfortunately, there's still no way to give the publisher any money for that game, because the current rights-holder refuses to sell it and it's been out of print for at least 15 years. In fact, the game (The Neverhood) was a commercial failure, and they probably still haven't made back their investment. But I didn't have the money then to pay for it - I was in high school with no job.
I agree that the cultural value of the game is high - in fact, support was added for it in ScummVM in 2014. But I'm not sure that poor marketing and reception at a time should bar them from ever making their money back. Look at the show Firefly - I didn't watch it until over a decade after it was produced. It would have never made money if not for people slowly catching on over the years.
Sure, there are malicious cases for this. But most IoT devices like smart thermostats are a bit too dumbed down and don't even operate correctly without an external Internet connection. Their broken security is about the only way to get a proper level of functionality.
A bank of 8 toggle switches with a light above each to show when they are turned on. Next to that, a 3-digit 8 segment display to show the 8-bit number corresponding to which switches are flipped. Maybe another one to show the ASCII letter corresponding to the number, when there is one.
You don't actually have to understand it to get something out of it. But you could also label each "bit" and its value as well as put up an ASCII chart for the older kids.
there is a weakness in WIFI security: packet size should not be so determinable.
I don't think that wireless security should concern itself with ensuring every possible form of steganography is also somehow encrypted or obfuscated. The only people that can "read" that data are the ones who already know what it is.
So, in a way this is like the BBC coming over every day for a free (for them) meal of baked beans on bread. They are literally stealing the food from your mouths and tables
How do you figure that? The BBC costs money to operate. Watching the programming without a license is like stealing a free meal from their tables. You're not required to pay, just as you're not required to watch.
The biggest problem the BBC has is with non UK users using the iplayer.
The biggest problem they have is not directly offering non-UK users a subscription package. Otherwise, your only choice is to pay for an entire 2nd-tier cable package (BBC America) just for access to a small sample of their programming.
Nice. I'm apparently stuck with Yosemite forever, unless someone can find a way to get Final Cut Pro (5.1 - bundled with Final Cut Studio) working well on El Capitan. It's bad enough that the installer was a PPC app that won't run on Yosemite because of no Rosetta - while the program itself is a universal app. I had to migrate that whole installation from a Time Machine backup.
My build is at least 3 years old, with Ivy Bridge. I've had a rock solid computer, except my SSD. I think I have a faulty SATA cable, because the drive will disappear with no warning once every few months. Hey, just like a real Mac!
Someday I'll just have to get with the program and move to FCP X. What I really want is Final Cut Studio 3, but that costs more than FCP X now on eBay. There's a program that can convert FCP 7 projects to X, but mine are all still technically FCP 5.
Underweight people face significantly higher risk of dementia, study suggests
Well that should be plainly obvious. You need cholesterol to protect the brain. You need to eat fats to produce the cholesterol. It shouldn't surprise anyone - especially experts.
You can reduce your blood pressure by reducing salt
That's not even universally true. Some people are sensitive to salt intake and an increase in blood pressure. For others, the kidneys flush the extra salts right out - even at a high weight.
I think the point of this exercise is that one input should be weighted against the other to verify threats and risks. Sterescopic vision would also see that as a flat wall. It's likely that the Tesla has that, but people definitely do.

don't need the two kids. Humanity has survived for many, many millennia on far less.
No...I'd say humanity sort of requires it.

savings gained from using the station across town

"Buy the [physical media]" would be almost OK compared to "Own it today on DVD" which actually implies you get some rights.
beyond the lifetime of the game (5-10 years)

They did a good job making native English errors with it then. Quite a few of the languages that have a comma use it the same way as English.
You sound like one of those people that calls "Microsoft Office" Windows.

make sure they can't reach it.
Better yet, make a stripped down demo that you can touch to demonstrate how the old tech worked.
But if what I hear is true, this is only useful for the most basic of things, no graphical capabilities
I know someone else has already said it differently, but X is a networked display protocol, so I assume any X server for Windows could work.
GNU/Linux is not named after the GPL license. At all. It just happens to be the same people involved in drafting it.
9 commas, and maybe one used correctly? Just remove that key from your keyboard - you don't deserve it.
Why would you waste bandwidth to pad it? You can slice up the packets and reassemble them to the max MTU size without decrypting the data.

Your product is worth precisely whatever your customers are prepared to pay for it
And they're leaving money on the table. I know of people who aren't buying precisely because there's nothing new.
When you lose one argument, just jump right into another.
You're right. Let's design everything to be disposable. That's only a recent trend, you know.
It's all about what happens when you drop it. Plastic cases fall to pieces.
