No, of course not. No ISP ever delegates, say, a/27 to a small business.
The class A holding corps will give away subnets for free. The annual administrative costs, you know, for record keeping, SWIP database management, and the like, however, will likely come to a hefty fee. The IPs themselves, though, free free free.
Well, on one hand, I just tossed a Saitek X36 flight stick and throttle control, and a Sidewinder force feedback joystick. On the other hand, it's mainly because both used gameport, predating USB.
On the other hand, if they ever develop Steel Batallion 2 for the 360, it bloody well better have a version with the game disc and an adaptor that converts the Xbox1 control panel to USB.
IOW, he's an archetypical cyberpunk character. Former hacker and coder who now runs a bar/nightclub, who sometimes dispenses wisdom from on high, and whom newbs deride and experienced people listen to.
The only thing missing is moving stolen data or cyberware, and/or arranging squads of disparate professionals to perform quasi-legal or illegal actions against corporations, generally on the behalf of other corporations.
Yup. But look at it this way. There are organisims which do not require oxygen. There are organisims that do not require sunlight. So why not the possibility of organisims that do not require both?
The history of Science! can basically be boiled down to "That's impossible," followed by "oh, wait, there it is," followed by "Ok, that's kind of cool, but this new thing, that's impossible." Repeat.
Windows 2008 Server will not boot on a x86-32 processor. The fact that, after install, you can then install an optional x86-32 virtual machine is beside the point.
The last serious giant robot sim would have been Steel Batallion. Which came with it's own control panel plus pedal assembly. (You cannot, in good faith, refer to the controller with came with Steel Batallion as a 'joystick.')
You don't need to be connected to XBL to play XBLA games. When downloaded, the game is licensed to both a) the hardware, and b) the XBL account. As long as one matches (i.e. the console is the right one, OR you're logged in to XBL with the correct account) you're golden.
If you need to move consoles, you can go to xbox.com and relicense all your stuff to your new console. I think they let you do this once per year, without question.
Oh, no doubt, though I'd also be willing to believe they'll pop off some sort of EEPROM and pop on a new one.
The point is, though, it's not like reflashing your 360. There's zero chance you'll be left with a 'bricked' car; you'll be left with a flashed car, or a new car, after the dealer either a) succeeds, or b) fails to successfully perform the upgrade.
Can anyone help me to understand the argument against installing the update?
'If I pose this question in a negative light, while also attempting to sound as though I speak from authority, I will imply that I am smarter and more awesome than an entire global corporation. Hopefully this will fill the empty void within my heart.'
I believe, truely and honestly, that the submitter thinks that he's expected to go to www.toyota.com, click on 'support,' 'downloads,' 'firmware,' 'by make and model,' and download a binary file which goes onto a USB key.
I believe that the submitter then thinks there will be instructions like 'pop the cover on the fuse panel, and insert the USB key containing the firmware upgrade in the USB slot. Start the car while holding both the 'rear window defroster' and 'left turn signal' down. The car will start in firmware upgrade mode and automatically start upgrading the firmware. DO NOT POWER OFF THE CAR DURING THIS TIME.'
You know, it's interesting you say that. About ten years ago, I went on a business trip to South Korea (from Canada.)
Up here in Canada, Daewoo makes televisions. In South Korea, they're a fricken Megacorp, straight out of Gibson or Shadowrun. Daewoo toothpaste even.
The other day, I was having a conversation with a co-worker that Google is rapidly approaching that status, with their new fibre plans. I likened it to L. Bob Rife's monolog in Snow Crash about how he bought a bunch of regional telcoms, and nobody realized that when he hooked them all together, he'd have a huge network.
Now, corporate power has been an issue for quite a while. Some of America's defining moments (such as the Boston Tea Party) were anti-corporation, not anti-Crown or anti-Government. Declaring corporations as people was just ridiculous, I think.
I guess we're just going to have to agree to disagree that Microsoft is using video game tie-in literature to espouse the usefulness of morally indefensible 'ends justify the means' human experiments.
Bungie is known for having written a rich and detailed backstory, and having a very detailed 'bible' for Halo. Eric Nylund was not coming up with things at the behest of Microsoft. I'm sure he gets to invent minor stuff what needs inventing, but somehow I doubt 'the origin of the Spartans' would fall into that.
I watched the first Halo: Reach ViDoc the other day, and they had a side-by-side of the marine model from Halo 3 and the marine model from Halo Reach and it was pretty damn impressive. Of course, anybody can whip up a video, but I'm looking forward to it.
It's not that they made the clones imperfectly, it's that the clones they made were unviable, due to the technology not being there. They could clone, but the clones would not survive. So, that was worked into the plan.
Any of the Halo books written by Eric Nylund are actually pretty good reads. The novelization of the original game is crap.
And to your parent poster, I doubt that Microsoft had anything to do with the story. And lest we forget, Halo was originally to be a Mac game....
Especially given that in a standard house-type application, chances are cat3 will give you 100baseT, or close enough for jazz.
Cat3 is 'rated' for 10baseT the same way that damn Mars rover was 'rated' for 90 days or whatever. Cat5E will be good enough for a while. Just remember to pull lots. And if you're really worried about needing faster speeds, pull some fiber at the same time. It's getting pretty cheap.
Knowing that I was going to be out of the house for a few days, I decided to get around to testing these bear traps. Some of them, the locking mechanism goes. The trap doesn't stay open, just randomly snaps shut. Now, I don't want to go all the way out into the woods and set these traps if they're not going to stay open. But the only way to test them is to leave them open for a week or two.
So, yeah, I was going to be on vacation, so it was the perfect time. No pets, and nobody at home, so I knew that it'd be safe, and I'd be reasonably sure which ones were in proper working order. Never DREAMED somebody would try to break in.

And they're both members of that very rare and elite group, 'companies that have been around that long.'
Looks like McAfee's also quarantined sarcasamdetector.dll in certain hosts.

That could work. It's only relatively recently that 'religion' and 'culture' wern't pretty much inextricably intertwined.
Hell, most offshoots of religions come from taking a 'foreign' religion, and changing bits of it to fit your culture.
So,if in, in Civ5, instead of spreading 'hinduism' or 'buddhism,' I'm spreading 'aztec culture' or whatever, great.

Same reason you can still get hooooge HD TVs that have the old antenna-coax screw-on attachment.
