Anyone try to listen to Bluetooth headphones in a crowded place? My BT headphones will start chopping sometimes in subway or at crowded intersections. I'm assuming the airwaves will get more and more saturated as adoption increases. Must be nice in spacious region of Silicon Valley, but us urbanites will be first to actually suffer.
There are dozens of languages in Europe, so European signs are based on images. In North America there are so many signs with words written on them that have picture equivalents in Europe It constantly pisses me off when I have to go to Quebec and can't understand the signs, yet drove through half of Europe without a single confusion on what a sign meant.
There's always a slight chance that he'll be dethroned. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/... So I bet he has money stashed all over the world in case he has to run. Look at Yanukovich (Ukraine, was dethroned in 2014). While he had a mansion with rare car collection and a golden coins with his face on it http://politobzor.net/show-136... I'm sure he's still living comfortably from all the stashes he had all over the world. That's all it is. A reserve fund in case of uprising. None of these leaders are delusional enough to think that they'll be in power forever.
You can't simply rely on a brand name. You also have to buy from a trusted supplier. Sandisk regularly releases guides on how to spot a fake, and often times the differences are very subtle
Other factors relevant in later age groups, such as cancers, are almost non-existent for that age group I found some studies a while back. Can't find the link now
They don't bore you. Instead, by grade 2 you're doing multiplication, by grade 6 you do algebra and geometry, by grade 8 you deal with complex formulas that take you two pages to solve. Then I came to America. High school was total boredom. At first, I had straight As, but I was extremely bored, causing me to find other ways to occupy my mind, like pot. I started skipping, and ultimately failing at everything I was good at. Yes, I could've done the work, but I didn't simply out of boredom. I didn't even have to spend time learning anything. I knew it all already. It was a complete waste of 4 years of my life.
Actually, "pod" was used because iPod was the most popular MP3 player at the time. Apple didn't jump on the bandwagon until 2005. I remember back in the day there were even talks of Apple suing the creators of podcast for using the name. Instead Apple embraced it, which I think was a great move.
In my years of a repair shop, I found a bastard workaround in case of mechanical problems. First we started freezing the drives, which gave us about half hour to copy files. After that the process would completely stop. To get past that, I created a system. Plug the harddrive in. While plugged in, put it into 3 garbage bags. Those seem to have the most trustworthy seals. Place the drive in a bucket of ice, then fill the bucket with cold water. Don't use bubble wrap, since that will insulate the drive from the water, which is counterproductive. At this point, the drive will always stay at the temperature of melting ice, ie 32F or 0C. We were successful at recovering many drives this way, saving clients money, and making more for ourselves Sounds crazy? But it works!
I think there's a reason to elaborate on every single point in the EULA. And the reason is - They don't want you to read it. By making the EULA 50 pages long, it makes it very easy to hide something ridiculous in it. Just look back and Sony and their rootkit. And countless others. Plus, if they decide to take you to court, they want to play on their field, by their rules. And by making rules that don't quite go together with copyright law, the jurisdiction becomes the contract law. And in that contract they have covered their ass in so many different ways, it's almost impossible to do anything. Look at the EULA for your cellular plan. You aren't even allowed to sue them, participate in class-action, or make any sort of claims against them. There is of course a way to get around that, but it will take a very strong Supreme Court judge to do so.
Simple.
Yes, the idea was tested and developed using the school resources. BUT!!
Tuition is payed specifically to use those resources.
The resources belong to them, but for a fee, they allow you to use it, something like, licensing.
Analogy to school's reasoning is: Adobe should own every picture created or modified in Photoshop, because the software is theirs, they simply license it to you.

Except Firewire was proven almost a decade ago to be very vulnerable to DMA attack

So this happens on the day the Georgian government releases the fabricated report about last year's conflict with Russia. Coincidence?
