I would say that's generally true about the privately operated toll routes in the US (Ohio Tpk for instance) but the publicly owned NYS Thruway and Mass Pike are actually pretty well maintained. Mass. also keeps their costs down and doesn't divert toll monies to slush funds so it doesn't feel like you're being raped to use the highway.
I think the main issue is that CC on DVDs is often implemented as graphic overlays rather than supplementary text data. BluRay (and HD DVD) can only implement CC as overlays. These overlays can't be effectively converted back into text data and don't get carried over in the translation to streaming media formats. So long as the content industry is focused on targeting these disc formats there will be a problem in getting raw CC data for presentation without the use of overlays.
I watched it in 2D and all the made-for-3D scenes were obvious, particularly the pointless one with David walking around in the interactive hologram that was all just eyecandy.
Surely, due to space/volume considerations, it would be necessary for the elves to use a whippletree in an essentially combined series and parallel application of force.
at least I'm pretty sure that marketing guys won't be filtering my email looking for ways to sell me things they think i'll want
Actually, that's what most webmail providers do. They provide you free service in return for your permission to mine everything passing through your account. This info gets passed on to the likes of Amazon and one day you see product suggestions based on something extracted from your e-mail history. You don't think they just give you tons of, or unlimited storage out of the goodness of their hearts?
Mixing at 24/96 has some merit in the name of reducing cumulative errors. You'll be hard pressed, however, to find an ADC that produces more than 16-bits of useful, noise-free data at 96KHz for recording.
The claimant was probably one of those guys with a mall kiosk selling myriad different blinged out shells for the confusing array of models Nokia had back when they were cool.
You don't have to use clean-room reverse engineering. You can peer into the implementation however you choose so long as you respect the copyright with original code in the reimplementation (and any contractual obligations).
What Compaq did to RE the IBM PC BIOS was an overly cautious CYA move to avoid the possibility of a lawsuit from IBM. It is often forgotten that IBM provided a technical reference manual with full schematics and complete assembly listings for the BIOS. Compaq felt the need to prove that they produced their work from an independent spec. to avoid accusations of copying that documentation.
The US Army thought it was a good idea to give enlistees access to tons of classified data and a DVD burner. Morons abound when expediency is valued more than security.
SystemC is a C++ library and simulation kernel. It isn't a dedicated language. The synthesizable subset of SystemC is very limited. Because it's plain C++, you have to implement all low level logic with much more code overhead than the equivalent VHDL or Verilog.
most CS majors arent going to know how to work on a real internet router. University education isn't supposed to be vocational training. In academia you learn academic concepts, not on the job skills.
Actually the data source does matter. Take font copyrights for instance. It is a violation to directly copy the data from a non-free font (including metadata like kerning pairs) but it is okay to trace a font manually and redigitize the outlines.
The proposal is for a drone with an RTG power source, not a nuclear reactor. The technology is simple and only limited by safety concerns and the generally limited availability of suitable radioisotopes.
How many other countries use Japanese auto-complete besides Japan?
Uh, China for one. Google can't generally differentiate between all-kanji Japanese (almost all names) and Chinese characters.
The Chinese search has special behavior to highlight the search terms in red rather than the default Western-style boldening that is oddly used for Japanese search too when phonetic characters are included. The red really makes his name stand out more prominently in the results.
Technically they never have been. Applications of genes are what have been patented. Of course it is easy to create a broadly scoped patent that covers every conceivable application for a specific gene.
Most of what was needed for quality resolution independent apps was in place with Win95. It has just been poor developer culture and dev tools that reinforce use of hard coded pixel coordinates that has been the real problem.

Actually, the Russians are going to disconnect their modules in 2018 and create their own follow on station.

Their network, their rules. You have no right to expect privacy for work or non-work related activities on their systems.

But we're still missing the first person view a la Doctor Strangelove ... in IMAX.

They really should get their heads on straight and focus on the stuff that matters like a top notch football and basketball team.

We do get the privilege of using more than 160 chars here kiddos. Time to work on the parseable sentences.
You missed the Free with a capital 'F'. It's the geek code for freedom rather than free beer.

It is truly harmless
How many people do you think will become phishing victims through pay.pal?
BTW, I hold a security clearance and the FBI has a large file on me. I'm not an unknown person.
Rule #1 Never talk about Fight Club...
You should have your clearance revoked if you think it's okay to blab about it in public. You're not as important as you think you are.

Their network, their rules. Monitoring traffic on a private network isn't the issue. The atrocious punishment is.
