That's a lot more trouble since you still need another working Mac and the other Mac is already unbooted anyway. I think maybe you started typing that thinking about OS X DVD media and realized how much trouble it really is now while you were typing that out.
Now they're currently trying to figure down how to get a live distro running that can mount Mac filesystems so they can fix that. It's kind of hilarious from my POV..
I thought Macs still supported target disk mode. So all you have to do is boot holding T while it's connected via Firewire or Thunderbolt to another Mac/PC and its internal drive shows up as a disk drive.
I guess if they want to waste a day using the wrong tools, they can go ahead.
I have this unconscious habit of hitting the power button before putting the phone in my pocket. I never even remember that I've done it or that it's required in order to lock the phone quickly.
A.K.A. Butt dialing. More common with non-smart, non-flip phones, where buttons are accidentally pressed to dial a contact while the phone is stored away in a pocket.
They really need to adopt something more like their mobile UI for full-screen mode. Scrolling up shows the browser navigation / url bar and scrolling down scrolls it off-screen.
Microsoft never achieved some sort of nirvanic perfection with Windows XP or Windows 7. The start menu was a refinement process that began in 1995, but just because it's old and familiar doesn't mean it ever became all that great. The only way to move forward is to try new things - even awful things. Any company that doesn't is dying.
The critical mass in this case is people in your own life. Not only my friends but also familiy are on Facebook. Features or not, it's just more convenient.
Facebook has added Followers for non-Page accounts as well. Used to only apply for business/entity or celebrity pages not tied to a specific individual account, but that has changed. But the ability to be followed is something that you can turn on or off entirely.
Google+ is better in the same way that Betamax was better. The lack of adoption killed its adoption. It's one of those things that requires critical mass to be useful.
Since there's no ransom demand, the only way to make money is if ALM was publicly traded - they're not. Otherwise, you short sell some stock before making your demands public and hope to make money on the plummeting stock price.
"True" AI isn't artificial at all. If you make a human brain out of circuitry, you have "real" intelligence. Either the human mind is a non-deterministic machine that can't function without a soul, or "artificial" intelligence is possible.
JPEG was only an analogy - editing and effects introduce artifiacts is the point. The noise floor drops directly from the higher bit depth and it better handles effects added, but you also get noise/junk audio when you layer multiple audio streams (drums, guitar, vocals, etc) and try to combine them into one waveform. That is improved by having the higher sampling rate - Nyquist has nothing to do with this. If it wasn't an improvement, then no engineer would waste the disk space recording at a higher sampling rate when the final output is only CD quality.
I disagree that FM is that bad. It's probably around 96Kbps in quality if that were really apples to apples. FM doesn't screw up sounds that much - it just flattens the waveforms horribly to help keep the SNR down.
If you want to have your cats enjoy it, you're better with the virtual low-pass of quantizing it down to around 20,000Hz. If the engineer can't hear much higher, they can't fix noise or harmonics or distortion in those ranges. So it's much better if you cut them out.

The SMS size limit is different depending on the network/carrier. Tweets are a standard size (to hit the LCD of SMS carriers).

Smart smart phones have a lock screen set.
That depends on the size of the butt and its shape change potential during sitting.

The SecureBoot requirement is for Windows Logo certification - it's not an installation requirement.
OK. They're a hardware retailer/reseller. That little bit of semantics play doesn't change much.
Chrome does horrible full-screen

Making fun of word choices and then you throw out an eggcorn like pigeon?

Separate, but equal. Jane Crow and all that.

While I might agree with most of that, there's really no reason to flag a mid-thread reply as spam.

Must be hard finding an HTTP/1.1 compliant web browser that supports the Host header.

Stuff that matters.

Pandora's not exactly half as popular anymore because of it.
