I hadn't heard about this, and I live here. Nice. I wonder if there will be officers there, though, considering accident reports have to be filed online if nobody was hurt, presumably to save on staff costs.
I don't trust anybody who has published a document with the title "C:\Users\Jehan-Francois Paris\Documents\ADAPT15\Case3.doc." Not even in.docx format. Tsk tsk.
There are still plenty of V8s that purr today, though most won't as loudly with stock exhaust. I am a fan, however, of the way the 500 Abarth does it. The former Chrysler SRT exhaust tuning wizards managed to make an exhaust that's quiet enough when you want it to be, but raucous and raspy when you get on the gas. No fake sound needed.
I don't know that I'd consider that a "similar" Android tablet unless you're considering "having a similar sized touch-screen" and "being a tablet" making them similar enough.
I remember seeing so many young schoolkids out on their own in Japan. I had an old-fashioned '80s/'90s semi-rural childhood, so it made nod in approval.
People may drive like assholes, but at least they never go fast enough to kill you (unless you fall under). Also, in my experience, it's the pedestrians and the cyclists especially that just do whatever they want. The motorists weren't that aggressive, outside the taxi drivers, who unfortunately still make up like 20-30% of vehicles on the road.
The similarities between humans and nature are amazing sometimes. I too would generally avoid any disco-related flashing things due to their 'poor taste.'
In all fairness, those that may wish to put security solutions in place may need a way to justify the increased cost of additional security to the larger shareholders, who often can't see the forest for the trees. You'd think those shareholders would just invest in IT/security companies...
I thought the same. I'd like to see a control panel that lets you dial these settings if you were a subscriber. Unfortunately, you're still probably screwed when it comes to Google Analytics on machines you weren't signed into Google on.
"In other words, it seems like a good time to be in IT, provided you have a particular skillset."
Oh, I have a very particular set of skills; skills I have acquired over a very long career...
While this is true, I remember with Windows 7, they had the customer experience thing running in the taskbar with the happy face and sad face. You could opt out of it and the data collection, if I recall correctly. Is that still the case?
I think they're great for that. Cowboy sysadmins are great at certain things, but you need people who will think things through to balance things out. It also works well when there's good chemistry between the people who fill each role.
I think he just doesn't want to deal with the pressure of being associated with it. He already cancelled 0x10c because he lost interest and it had already become "a thing." Seems like just wants to work on his own stuff and spit out whatever he finds fun without half the internet watching.
I've been using AirWatch for some years now, and it works great. There's nothing "cloud" about my environment either... I hope this isn't the beginning of the end, though. With them leveraging a piece of AirWatch for something else, I hope this isn't a precursor to the discombobulation of the MDM suite...
I use the Citrix receiver, since the Windows App Store version doesn't start up stuff (like the Citrix Connection center) when you log into your PC that disables window effects/themes. It also doesn't throw annoying icons in your start menu and on your desktop for remote apps. Great for the PC you only occasionally connect to Citrix with.
I also use a cool Kanji lookup app on my convertible ultrabook.
I have a few games I've bought through it, but it's pretty minimal.
I fully expected plenty of ass-hattery to come from this acquisition. I wasn't aware, however, that justin.tv would have any outcome from this. I don't know why I didn't see it coming, with them being under the same corporate entity. I can't wait to see what other crap comes down the pipe.
Yes. Often times in less critical systems, it happens. If it's critical, though, or has any privileged accounts that can access critical stuff, it definitely keeps it. Let me tell you, as nice as the Windows Firewall interface is in Server 2008 and above, it can be a painstaking endeavor to find all the exceptions you need. Then there's always the support guy asking "Umm... why come... why come I can't ping this? It's broke. Fix it."
I have to admit that I don't care for the way they treat their employees, but I admire a company that values long-term profits over the short-term. I'm so conflicted now.
If you're on Windows, using the built-in Microsoft IME with a Japanese keyboard allows me to use the hardware keys to switch input modes and/or use the direct kana input. I don't think many people use the direct kana entry, though. Even without a Japanese keyboard, you can use Alt+Shift to switch input methods, and Alt+tilde(~) to switch from direct entry to IME entry. Still kinda blows, though.
I think they reversed it for the little Atom devices. I don't understand why so many Bay Trail devices want to run 32-bit, when they can do 64, but it's still a thing.
Here's a Honda press-release on it. It is entirely possible that the S2000 system is something different, but I have a feeling that this is just a combination of an EPAS system that does something similar, in addition to varying weight.
I agree with you on the lack of mechanical linkage. Nissan has some system that retains the driveshaft for times when the steer-by-wire is malfunctioning, but I have a feeling that by the time it's malfunctioning (10 years on), the mechanical fall-back mechanism will likely be faulty too.
That would also be an issue with the electric steering alone. While it's hydraulic, my RX-7 also has speed sensitive power steering and it works rather well. Variable ratio steering was first available on the Honda S2000, and I don't think anyone's complaining. This system simply uses EPAS to accomplish much the same thing.

I love eggs! I mean, who in their right mind throws away a perfectly good case of eggs in this day and age?

Well, if they're competing with a Chromebook, it just has to handle the browser part of the equation.

Sounds interesting, but I feel like my eyes might crust over from the blinding light.
