Look at the VLC app for Android. When it boots you are given half a second to memorize the entirely gesture based interface. And then that is it. That is all you can do with the app.
The problem is half with the hardware. Just sticking to the touch screen is not enough. We need smartphones to come with a button or two extra just used for interacting with apps (and maybe one more specifically designed to bring up the menu of the current running application).
No, none of these vidoes individually make them enough money to be worth defending. What is costing them serious money, is dealing with the flood of illigitimate DMCA notices.
The taxi company owner needs a lot of money, the taxi driver is typically an illigal alien who does not even speak English and has 5 dollars to his name. The owners typically buy the badges, not to run a taxi service so much as to invest in taxi badges becaue prior to Uber their "worth" tended to keep going up and up. Because, the goverment has granted you a monopoly, you do not have to worry about oout performing your compitition. That is worth a pretty penny. And then people just started treating it as a high risk stock market.
And how do you expect to do that? The US goverment in its entirty is beholden to industry, and have shown its willingless to say anythign about food to increase profits.
They seem to be implying that it is industry practice to just cut someone off from the internet becuase someone deteced that you used the BT Protocol for something unknown and unspecified.
First off, how would a rights owner even know I was using bittorrent without knowing which torrent I was DLing? My ISP could sense general torrent traffic, but from my understanding it is the rights holders that do the snooping, and all they do if torrent their own work and write down peer addresses.
I think the point being made is is, they are not actually doing EE or ME work then. They are doing some sort of electrical and mechanical work, but it is not as a professional Engineer.
Microsoft devs are not allowed to talk to customers, and they are paid to produce a product. The employees that do talk to customers absolutely are curious and generally follow "the customer is always right" philosophy.
Open source devs often do talk to their customers, and I have never met one who when informed about a problem or with an opinion that something should be a different way has not said "I write open source code for myself, I could not care less about your experience or opinions."
rather than fix the bugs in systemd, the systemd people responded that the people who found the bugs should work around systemd and systemd didn't need to be compatible with existing code.
So basically, the SystemD developers are acting like most other open source devs.
Still, the chance of a malfunctioning test (particularly multiple in a row [there is at least a blood test and a breath test]) seems far less than the chance of failing a court case where the only evidence is the officers memory of you acting drunk vs your word that you were not.
You will lose any case were you turned down all tests and the officer thought you looked intoxicated. And the chance of this happening seems higher than all the tests giving a false positive. If you know you are not drunk, the best option would seem to me would be to ask for as many objective tests as they will give you. And a faulty tester can be tracked down and tested for accuracy. While an officer's memories of you cannot.
Well if you know you are not drunk, take the damn tests and prove your own innocence with them. These tests are not pseudo science from my understanding, if you have not been drinking they will return that result.
Umm, wealth is pretty rigorously tracked by the government. They are very serious about that. There is nothing more rigorous than government income statistics...
I really do not think they make this stuff up.
OK, then let me reword that. Out Homosexuals are statistically far richer than their heterosexual peers. And in particular Settles population of said demographic is huge and rising.
This should not be an issue. Poor neighborhoods have always had the means to keep rich people out and housing affordable. A city should be able to support a diverse range of people, and will do so unless something prevents it. Sounds to me like this is more of a side-effect of every expanding police power than a tech boom.
I don't know, betting on sports results should be pretty easy to game. The odds given are just designed to hedge the bookie's bets, not on the actually best guess on who is going to win. People are stupid, so will bet wrong in general; So you only need to figure out when the odds given do not match the real life odds to such a degree that you have a monetary advantage. You won't win every time, like the bookies do, but you should be able to easy get a positive expected value.
The problem with poker is that unless you are coning noobs, you are playing people at the same level as you. While if you get involved in huge population wide gambling, you only need to outplay the lowest common denominator.
But, presumably, when the air is filled with sand it is a lot denser than standard Martian atmosphere. They do not appear to account for this change in atmo density, so I am not sure about their calculations.
Wait, so you wanted the Oculus headset to release with a $3K pricetag? And that is probably a huge underestimate, is it even possible with current tech to shrink 4K down into an 1"x1" screen?
Personally, I want to throw out my monitors and use a VR headset to create a virtual workspace.
Ohhhh. Well you could of just told us your're an idiot upfront and saved us the effort of reading your opinion.

I came here to make the same joke. I don't have any mod points, but I believe that this should be upvoted.

There is absolutly nothign environmental about space travel.

WordPress has just released that they are changing their name to Skynet.
Have you ever seen a census. They sure ask a lot of questions, but none of them seem to be about your wants or needs.

Pussy isn't feminine, anymore than it is feline. It is simply a word meaning soft.

Typically homosexuals are rich (statistically higher wealth, by a wide margin), and they are in fact often the people replacing the poor natives.

More like dumb-asses create useless piece of crap.
I was really hoping for a 4K screen
