Some of the most rock solid dependable office grade printers are the HP LaserJet 4050 and 4100. These have small improvements over the 4000 and they lack the "smart chip" of the 4200 and 4300 toner cartridges that inhibit remanufacturing. Drivers are a non-issue with the Postscript models and you can connect via serial, parallel port, or ethernet. These are some of the last printers designed before Fiorina took over and ran the ship into the ground. You can find them and their accessories for a song on eBay these days.
That's a real slap in the face of legitimate customers who have intentionally and legally rejected the installation of WGA on their computers.

His tune-up of MLK's I have a dream speech is pretty awesome. It's good enough to actually consider a mainstream artist doing a proper cover in the mode of the Obama "Yes we can" video.
I'm all for an unfair excise tax on sweetened drinks so long as they ban the use of corn syrup and return the the all natural goodness of pure cane sugar.
Before the advent of CD based consoles the manufacturing costs for the cartridge based games were more significant. There is significant overhead in producing masked ROMs just on their own. Then you add in the tendency for added costs for features like battery backup and more support chips to supplement an aging console design. All of a sudden you have a cartridge that represents a significant investment just to make and the retail pricing has to allow for that. The switch to CDs allowed for much more profitability by keeping the old pricing model for a product that can be mass produced for pennies. The only benefit here is the possibility of rolling back prices for popular "classic" games that have been out for some pre-existing amount of time. This allows the publishers to rake in more cash by appealing to both the hardcore players as well as the cheapskates.
They already fully index Office documents and PDFs. This shouldn't cause anyone alarm. I don't know how the publishing mechanism works but one would presume that there is still the option of using robots.txt to lock out googlebot from publicly accessible sites.
Hence the industry push to move from BGA to CGA on high pinout packages for the greater robustness in handling thermal stress. That change alone would solve their problems.
The Google specific groups have features that they don't provide for the Usenet feeds (member profiles, file sharing, etc.) It isn't the same as just local newsgroups.
It isn't a stupid extra step. If the creator app isn't installed then it's wise to use whatever available app can handle the document. On the linked page someone made the important observation that this will completely break the proper behavior when using multiple graphic design apps that use their special flavor of eps with metadata as their document format. Without using a creator code you can't launch the right app for a document.
I've never allowed WGA to be installed. I still get all updates. You have to be on your toes and scan through all updates because they like to sneak it in from time to time even though you've refused it before. They tried to do that when SP3 was rolled out. Obviously, anyone using automatic updates is already hosed.
The tie-ins are tolerable even though they're still horribly dependent on using special pieces. What I want to know is why have they gutted the much more interesting Technic line? You rarely see the sets that are still produced on the big retailers shelves in the US anymore.
Just to be clear. All states are open carry states because of our bill of rights. It's only the unamerican fools who control some states that would say otherwise and abuse their power to maintain their iron grip on the people.
Most providers in the US already define broadband as anything faster than ISDN (128 kb/s). This sucks for those of us who have suffer degraded DSL service due to poor line quality because there is no recourse to complain about the reduced speed since no promises were made up front.
While Musk's accomplishments and drive are in some ways admirable he isn't as great a person as he projects himself to be. He has been known to inflate his credentials and he ditched his ex wife for an actress 15 years younger than him. Apparently, the ex found out about it when he brazenly took the mistress to a business party instead of her.
It wasn't exactly reverse engineered in the truest sense of the term since the IBM manuals included the full source code to the original PC BIOS. I don't know when they stopped doing that but that code was the framework for Compaq to write their cleanroom spec. rather than the raw machine code from the ROM itself.
You must be using the second gen. NES without the elaborate cartridge loading mechanism because the originals all developed problems with corroded contacts after a few years.
Ignoring the constitutional issues, this isn't an entirely bad idea. I do think it should be limited to level 3 offenders so the unfortunate level 1's who have been convicted for sexting themselves as a teenager don't have such a dark shadow following them for the rest of their lives.
The summary doesn't explain things very well. Just to set things straight, most of the CO2 emissions from portland cement production is not from the fuel burned in the kilns but from the gas released by the limestone itself during the calcination process. The only real incentive for the use of energy efficient kilns is to reduce fuel costs and not to reduce emissions. The upside is that cement will reabsorb much of the released CO2 as it cures over the course of time.
Why in the hell couldn't GM have just come out with a normal 50MPG car that didn't suck ass like the Metro? That would sell well and be a ton cheaper to make.

The title is confusing. Are these Tb or TB?

Now is the time to invest in corn syrup futures my friend.

Seriously. The amount of prior art on this one is more than enough to keep these trolls at bay.
Most of us figured out how to aspirate our aiches years ago.
