Hasbro has no interest in anything for adults. All the big board game makers are ran by morons. They told the CAH guys to go to hell that nobody would ever buy their card game.
It's proof that large corporations do not have a clue how to bring products to the world anymore and are old worthless dinosaurs that are no longer needed.
spent weeks downloading Yggdrasil install disks and finally got a base install running. when I finally downloaded enough to run X I was pissed that 90% of the software was designed for 17" monitors that could do 1024X768 and the largest I could afford was a 15 that was only useable at 800X600
I remember trying to play nettrek over a ill gotten credentials to log into a local university dial up connection to access the internet, on a pan and scan desktop on that little monitor.
Slap in a 1tb SSD and it really makes a difference I run 2 VM's daily on 16gb on a late 2011 MBP and the SSD make it faster than any brand new dell I have seen come in the office.
I dont understand why the Feds dont pass a law that states all voting machine source code MUST be audited by professionals before an election and then compiled, checked and then uploaded to the machines.
Diebold can easily be told to go stuff it in a sock when they complain.
1 the chief of police needs to be fired for being a dimwit. 2 the school needs to focus on education and not being fuck-knobs. 3 everyone involved needs to get a life.
It is two words from a juvenile that were inappropriate, The kid is far too immature to know anything about legality of statements. Honestly it is the adults and so called "leaders" of the community are so full of themselves and controlling others that they all need to be forced to sit in a corner for a few days to think about how they are acting.
Back in the early 2000's I helped set up and run a community Wifi. Comcast helped pass laws making what we were doing illegal and within 5 years we had to shut down. It was actually very easy as every customer that paid for full time access was another node for the other customers. As a paying member you got full speed access, and the wifi you broadcast for free was very throttled and had bottom level priority. WE used all off the shelf parts using DISH network dishes mounted upside down and at the end a linksys router in a waterproof box mounted on your roof pointing back to the nearest hop.
we had to disassemble it as it was now illegal as we were creating a service without paying a franchise license. We asked to buy a franchise license and were told, "there is only one available and it's already sold"
You will not see community wireless internet spring up not unless city hall is burned down and the mayor and all the council are in stockades on the lawn being pelted with rotten food.
You mean the government reported heavily adjusted to avoid panic numbers.
Real unemployment was near 25% government reporting of unemployment only counted people that were actively collecting unemployment checks. If you were not being paid, you were not counted as unemployed. Some places Unemployment real numbers were closer to 35% to 40% Detroit for example.
I WANT it to go to court and I want them hit with copyright violation and have the plaintiff use the same calculation that the RIAA and MPAA uses and demand $4.6 billion in lost revenue as they shared the video with millions of people.
The RIAA and the MPAA make up bullshit numbers. and it's time that same bullshit get applied to a corporation.
No 99% of all phones out there have utter shit for audio quality. Cellphone networks and cellphones have steadily went from decent to complete crap audio call quality.
Sadly only apple get's it. Facetime audio calls are fantastic. Skype is as crappy as a cellphone call.
Reporting by "reporters" is bullshit. Nothing but instant glossing over or regurgitation of the API feed. ZERO reporting so if "new media" writers get let go, this is a good thing. Let's look at my favorite motorcycle websites, all reviews are done for 10 minutes at a desk, some are done without opening the package. So yes I hope those writes lose their jobs as they are worthless. Car websites writing car reviews without touching the frigging car or worse, sitting in it for 10 minutes. What does the REAL car magazine Road and Track do? Subscription based and they are making money.
It's already proven you dont need ads, you need content that is worth a damn. Game of Thrones is the #1 TV show in the world for 5 years running, NO ADS. Hell, Kung Fury is a 15 minute short that made more money BEFORE IT WAS FINISHED than any other movie twice it's length.
1 - a sticker that states, "will not work at all without internet" Home alarm systems that fail when the internet is out needs to have a huge red sticker warning customers away from them as a very very crap design.
I have been through several of these IOT security systems. So far the all are 100% crap if internet is down, you dont even get the siren going off.
Slashdot Mirror
Because microsoft gave them unlimited free use licenses for 5 years.
And they will have the exact same problems, as Office 365 has huge incompatabilities with a lot of older word docs as well as spreadsheets, etc...
It's a BS article trying to spin the fact that Microsoft caved in and gave the city a lot of free to ge tthem to switch back.
Yep $100 a stick is dirt cheap to me. I remember paying well over $900 a stick for ram.

If it has 2, I give it 32gb. 4, gets 64gb. Why are you limiting your ram to half its potential? 16GB sticks are affordable.
Slap in a 1tb SSD and it really makes a difference I run 2 VM's daily on 16gb on a late 2011 MBP and the SSD make it faster than any brand new dell I have seen come in the office.
and if you use Chrome for more than 2 hours at a time..... even 32GB is not enough. God help you if you are on a page with flash.
3d LEFT to the player 1 and 3d Right to player 2 is the killer feature of the 3d tv sets. Why the hell dont these developers support it?
Although asking them to enable 3D in games is falling on deaf ears, so I'm guessing it will never happen.
I dont understand why the Feds dont pass a law that states all voting machine source code MUST be audited by professionals before an election and then compiled, checked and then uploaded to the machines.

just dont go stupid and get all the extra comfort phone control features and you are just fine.
No hacker on this planet can hack a 2015 civic without physical access.

That is already been kicked in the nuts.

Absolutely! start with stopping all Corporate and Farming handouts.
Also hospitals freaking welfare breeding grounds. Cut their funding as well.
"unemployment spiking over 10%."

I just wish they would update the Kindle DX. I love mine and I really would love the backlight and newer tech screen.
I WANT it to go to court and I want them hit with copyright violation and have the plaintiff use the same calculation that the RIAA and MPAA uses and demand $4.6 billion in lost revenue as they shared the video with millions of people.

As a parent of a millennial, I force phone conversations.
Because Texting is utterly useless when all I get is..
Out of monE cn U snd me som
LOL
Yeah, dad is not sending crap until the phone rings.
Well that's Just WIZ!
Cant wait for more NERPS updates from SlackDM!
People really need to start beating marketing types with sacks of doorknobs.
Ping Pong balls would have done the exact same thing for $0.03 each, probably less in that quantity.
Gotta love government contracts.
Because the media industry needs to die.

So yes, I hope it all dies.... Dies in a Fire.
Except it's built on an android base.
Played with it a lot, was one of the alpha and beta testers, it's crap. Steaming crap.
Yep My Thinkpad X250 has this and there is a bios update to fix it.
Ubuntu's shoveling adverts at you at every angle is pretty scummy.
