Software can't fix vertical video since the sensor was oriented the wrong way to begin with . The only "fix" would be to crop down to a lower resolution or design a phone where the sensor rotates independent of how it's held.
Lavabit made a number of elementary legal mistakes from the beginning, even avoiding using a lawyer in the first hearing.
You shouldn't have to use a lawyer to get justice in a free nation. It shouldn't be possible to use a defendant's naivete as a procedural trap to extort concessions and violate due process. Judges are supposed to be biased in favor of defendants to ensure this doesn't happen. The puppet FISA "judges" are so quick to lick the boots of their real master that they can't be bothered to maintain a believable charade.
Arafat arguably deserved to share it with Perez and Rabin for trying to work towards peace in the Middle East
Considering that Arafat walked away from a deal with Rabin that met all of the PLO's demands I think he was really more concerned about maintaining a legacy as a freedom fighter rather than face the possibility of actually advancing that goal and becoming a lackuster first president of Palestine.
"Web 2.0" is supposed to leverage the enhanced features provided by HTML5 among which are fluid layout that adapts to different screen sizes and ratios.
All we get here is a half-baked implementation that stops widening paragraphs once the browser is more than half the width of a wide screen. The lamest part is that the main body grows bigger once you shrink the browser enough to remove the sidebars.
At least all the necessary CSS machinery is in place. All it will take is a simple adjustment to the poorly set limits.
If they already have scores encoded with MusicXML and there are libraries to translate that into a braille format why do they need money to carry out the translation?
Blackberry's business was built around mobile e-mail. Their transition from pager devices to smartphones brought along with it their original NIH, vendor lock-in strategy. They never *got* smartphones as flexible devices using open protocols because that's not how their business started and they didn't move fast enough to embrace changing market conditions.
As someone not in favour of jewish marriage and also not in favour of deliberately sticking jewish people in the media to show them off, I still find his remarks very problematic.
Choosing to not give the role of media spokesperson to someone who is jewish and a public figure in "jewish rights movements" is one thing. But ruling out that an advertisement can ever contain a jewish family is going too far.
In that case you are not disliking merely "the way in which they are jewish", i.e. they are jewish and they take specific actions and you dislike those particular actions, but you blanket exclude them regardless of what they do from the fact that they are jewish alone.
If you cringe when hate speech directed towards gays is converted into that towards another traditionally reviled minority is your dislike of gays justified? Are such traditions worth holding sacred?
It's not an urban legend. The kernel traps that key sequence at a low level for security purposes. That's what Gates alludes to in the article.
SysRq would be the more logical choice (barring neophyte confusion with print screen) but the NT designers were wise enough to not depend on a key that was missing on many laptops by the early 90's. The three finger salute is guaranteed not to be used by legacy DOS and Windows software for core functionality so it was the natural choice to be repurposed for requesting attention from the kernel.
There's also little known multiple selection feature of X whereby you can select a range of text to copy and then select a second range of text to paste over rather than just inserting at the insertion point. Very few tools support it since none of the modern toolkits provide for it. It's basically limited to some Motif apps and Emacs.
The Don't Copy That Floppy campaign has been a marvelous success. Floppy disk piracy is now down 100%. Cali can expect similar success with their initiative.
Also by poster, as some tend to be more interesting than opthers.
It's a shame Slashdot hasn't done anything to make its moderation system more dynamic. The +1 bonus doesn't really do much to separate from the noise when just about everyone gets to use it. It would be nice if karma could be used promote top posters even higher. Something like a +2 or +3 bonus if you've had three 5's (possibly excluding +5 funny) in the past month.
These days you can't really get a good sturdy station wagon, but the modern equivalent seems like it would be the SUV. Since Chevrolet Suburbans have been around for so long, I'm going to pick that.
Subaru still makes the Legacy station wagon which is sold in the US as the gussied up Outback. That would be a fairer vehicle for comparison. It has 71.3 cu. ft. of space with the seats down vs. the stated 137 cu. ft. of a Suburban so the end result needs to be scaled by 0.52. The stated 68057Gbps bit rate should really be 35390Gbps in a fair evaluation.
You can legally drive within 1000ft of the Davis-Besse cooling tower. The ungated service road that runs right by it is even closer but I suspect that there are sensors to detect intrusions or at least I hope there are.
Pebble beds are nice in theory but in practice all of the experimental designs have had issues with broken fuel pellets creating the potential for unsafe concentrations of Uranium.
It's notable that the MinnowBoard is an open hardware platform, a distinction that Arduino and BeagleBone can claim but Raspberry Pi cannot.
There's nothing exotic about a Pi. It could be recreated with sufficient motivation. The schematics are available so it wouldn't be a major challenge to reproduce them and generate a compatible board layout.
Also, the average homebrew builder targeted by these products isn't going to have the resources to assemble a board with high density surface mount packages so the value of being able to reproduce them is dubious. At $35 it is far cheaper to buy an assembled Pi and not have to worry about the time involved in acquiring parts, assembly, and verification. Even for those that have the tools to build one it would be a phenomenal waste of time at that price point. If your production volume is high enough to beat $35 then you may as well do a custom design anyway that has exactly the hardware and interfaces you need.
Stacking images doesn't just magically produce data from nothing. It is entirely possible to threshold all of the bright objects and/or logarithmically scale the samples and look for motion in the low amplitude region close to the noise floor.

I don't really care if Facebook knows where "Bob Smith" has gone.
That would be an EULA violation citizen. Ten years hard time on the chain gang at minimum.
Doesn't say much for the security of ColdFusion. Maybe it's time for Adobe to stop eating their own dogfood.

No, John Gosselin does.

Such a cynic. He merely has an elevated risk of having an accident.

Because you don't need an OS and the consequential complexity involved in using one for doing simple hardware control.
They should call it the Tallahassee.

Yeah, but the entire Microsoft stack is expensive.
Visual C++ Express: $0
Visual C# Express: $0
Visual Basic Express: $0
SQL Server Express: $0
MS provides plenty of options for people to develop on their platform without having to shell out any money.

Charles Carreon. You're a fucking asshole.
It seems like it would be much simpler to just use optical flow to find moving objects.
