If your wierd car costs $20K-$40K then I can tell you without a doubt that you will fail instantly. Wierd and efficient cars need to target the sub $9000 price point for a econo 2 seater. There are a metric buttload more buyers at that price point than the more likely $40K per car point that it would have ended up at.
Chevy understood this as well as Nissan. They are producing incredibly few Volts and Leafs because they know there is no market for an economy car at $40K. the economics of the cars do not make any sense to anyone, and the only buyers will be "look at me I'm green! LOOK AT ME!!!!!" people who have a lot of money for a toy. If the chevy volt looked 100% identical to a $15,000 car it would have sold nothing at all because there is no "LOOK AT ME!!1!1!" factor.
Honda Civic new is $16,000. Chevy Sonic is $15,000 Both get 40mpg. If your car costs MORE than that you are set up for Instant-FAIL. Even if it was to get 60mpg. In reality a new, never heard of company needs to be way,way, under that to get sales because nobody wants to "risk" getting stuck with a poorly built or defective car from a unknown car company.
It still will not get the stink off you from the guy you are sitting next to that smells like he has not showered in 12 days and has a hint of cat piss.
The computer at school upon boot just sat here. you had to toggle in your assembly code. Gotta love an Altair. a year later someone gave up a ram upgrade and a disk drive with 4 wyse dumb terminals. It was cool to see 4 people at once using the computer. I got kicked out of the class though as I wrote an app to do a larsen Scanner with the address and data led's.. The teacher freaked out and said I broke it.
Really? you typed it ALL in and then tried to run it?
I ran it at several steps to check for my typos making most of the subroutenes first so they simply did an instant return. that way I did not waste another 4 hours reading each line looking for a missing space or letter because the keyboard was a raging piece of crap. I utterly HATED the keyboard on the vic-20 as it was junk compared to that on the Tandy model 1
Most people use the secret service called...... VPN. or if you like more secure, you use an out of band initiation that opens a port for a short window. Example: I simply SMS my server, it get's the SMS message and opens the VPN firewall rule for 3 minutes. I connect and do my work. if my connect did not happen in the 3 minute window it closes down again.
SMS is easy with a cellular rs232 modem, but there are plenty of other ways to do it as well. Email to a specific gmail account can do the same exact thing.
This is Computer security 101 stuff, nothing advanced.
I love you guys but recently only have been buying Intel i5 and i7 because your Math coprocessor still stinks badly compared to Intel. For video compression and really heavy maths, I really wanted to use your 6 core processors, but they were slower than the 4 core i7 I bought instead.
Give me a 6 core that runs like a raped ape and has a really good math coprocessor and I'll be back. give me an 8 core that can also do multi chip on the same motherboard so I can build a 16 core for a cheap price, and I'll be back with a whole lot of friends.
There are lots of us that actually do real computing that has really heavy math. I know you guys can do this.
You never need your server directly on the internet. put it behind a firewall with holes poked through. they can't attach a zero day SSH exploit if the only hole is port 80 to Apache.
And if you are one of the incredibly rare cases where you really do need to have the machine on the net directly.. I suggest daily security audits.
"Amazon's ebooks only work on amazon hardware. " Funny, my iPad reads kindle ebooks in the kindle reader app just fine. And my old android tablet reads kindle ebooks as well in it's kindle app.
In fact I believe Kindle ebooks are the MOST cross platform ebooks out there as their reader app is on every single platform.
Wait... I cant read them on my BluRay player. DRAT!
yet I can take the SAME document, and instead of printing to my Printer or to PDF, I print to the fax. Leave it to lawyers to make a law really stupid to include the name of the technology in it.
Judge lets the world know he is a complete and utter idiot.
sad part is that he will throw a hissy fit that everyone n the planet does not obey him, and he will not bother to get an education to make sure he does not sound like a complete tool again in the future.
You are disillusioned if you think anyone get's lunch, beer and t-shirts. Project t-shrits... I have not even HEARD of those cince 1998, everyone has went to, "new project today! everyone line up for a poke in the eye with a sharp stick!"
And remember everyone, Management thinks you all are a waste of money! we ship when it compiles!
A buddy of mine has been "invisible" for 5 years and skipped all the downsizing. His direct report was let go and he still get's a check every 2 weeks. he has no idea who he is supposed to report to for the past 18 months, and had heard NOTHING from the main office, so he simply does his job and collects the checks. the company cellphone and VPN accounts still work, and HR still is paying him and covering insurance.
You have been able to use HP jetdirect printers as an attack vector for decades.
IT seems that Computer security is not remembering how attacks were happening from the 90's and earlier.
Hell you could make Xerox solid ink printers burn the paper by sending them a corrupted PDF. it would stop in mid print with the paper on the drum and under the fixer running full power.
A correct vasectomy is 100% effective. The pussy ones that are reverse-able are the ones that are not. My doc cut out 1/2 inch of Vas on each, and then cauterized the ends, folded them over and tied them. they would have to untie each other, flip back and regrow a large distance to lose any effectiveness.
Guys should man up and get a real vasectomy instead of the pussy out version that is reversible. Real men get snipped, it's the lesser men that refuse to.
Therefore did not test to see if any gasses released from the plastics in the laptop could be the effect. They are testing cells exposed to the environment not inside of it's intended sealed container.

They are attempting to BLOCK the patent expiring so it cant be made cheaply. or did you not read the article?
Want more dissapointment? try using it as a phone.
The hardware is an epic fail. I have two of them. both 100% useless as a phone.

Damn public! how dare they want affordable drugs for healthcare!!!!

You never need SSH open to the internet. VPN in then access the ports.

Most of the time it's not a law doing that, it's a complete retard at the other end that cant figure out how to open your email attachment.
yet I can take the SAME document, and instead of printing to my Printer or to PDF, I print to the fax.

That wont fly in any state of this union, except California where they hate people.
If you showed up for work you get paid, they can ask for back pay if you worked it.

Being invisible is a good thing at times.

Easy to do, on boot it runs a backup of the drive, I.E. does a image of it, then when done dd /dev/zero > /dev/hda
reboot for each step? why?
"doe snot"
What does Doe Snot have to do with it? is that a slang term for woman juice?

Lots of variables they did not account for.
