Sure, there's lost sales. But plenty of things cause lost sales, even completely legal things. Legitimate competition causes lost sales. A bunch of people protesting legally outside a store might reduce their sales. Noisy construction going on near a business might discourage people from going there. Lost sales alone can't be the litmus test for whether something is actionable or not.
Which is, of course, unusable for just about anything. Even reimaging machines over wifi would be abysmally slow. The only thing I can think of is to netboot a utility program like memtest or DBAN.
While I'm glad a game company is doing something about cheating, I don't think their logic is quite sound here. Unfair competition? Anti-circumvention? Gimme a break, it sounds like they're just throwing a bunch of charges around and seeing what sticks. "Defendants are attempting to destroy or irreparably harm that game before it even has had a chance to fully flourish" Really? Weren't they just bragging about how it already sold 10 million copies or some other huge number?
So put the solar panels above the roadway. Something like this but scaled up over the entire road rather than just a bike lane. The main disadvantage of roadway solar panels is that they can't be angled thus are inherently less efficient, but putting them above lets you angle them. Plus it requires no change to the road technology itself (that problem has been solved for a while).
Maybe not. The fact that Bernie hasn't outright endorsed Hillary and stayed in so long, combined with Trump not making as big of a deal as you'd expect over his slipping poll numbers, should tell you that maybe they know something we don't with regards to Hillary. I'd say there's a small chance she'll still be prosecuted, and/or some other major scandal comes out.
True, but keep in mind that what matters is not just bandwidth, but bandwidth*time. If you have 100Mhz of spectrum to use, and user A and user B each get 50Mhz, let's say this gives them each 50mb/s of bandwidth. But if we let them both use all 100Mhz, then they each get 100mb/s peak bandwidth, while still having ~50mb/s each if it's congested. So if each of them has a fixed amount of data that they want to transfer, they use the same bandwidth*time as before. It only becomes a problem if you have a bandwidth hog who will use any available bandwidth you give them.
40-50% of what? Bytes? Bits? Files? If you write random data to the drive, then claim the data is all zeroes, you would technically be recovering 50% of it.
Relevant reading here. Short version: a single overwrite with random data is fine, but multiple passes are overkill, mostly due to improvements in density and recording density. The only time you would need more is if the drive is old. However, the big failure of most wiping methods is that they miss remapped sectors, so an ATA Secure Erase is necessary if your drive is showing any remapped sectors.
Actually, that's a good point. See this. Why tape over a webcam when someone could listen to your microphone, with no activity LED, especially given that audio is far more incriminating than video? Not that video isn't a problem, but disabling video without also disabling audio is dumb.
I don't think having more country-specific stuff would help. The Internet isn't supposed to be like the physical world where borders are a thing. It might make sense to have sites separated by language, since a French web site doesn't do a whole lot for someone who doesn't speak French, countries should stop thinking they have control over the Internet.
I find it ironic that European countries want less physical borders but want the Internet partitioned even harder.
Because some people might have far more than 18 tabs open, and they might be doing other things with the rest of their RAM. That kind of memory usage isn't going to cut it when 18 tabs becomes 100.
They need to actually fix their process-per-tab first. I keep trying it only to be let down by bugs that make it unusable for me. For example, a userscript I use grabs alt+letter key hotkeys. In non-e10s, it works fine. In e10s, it activates the userscript action as well as the menu bar.
I think the best thing that could possibly happen to Firefox would be for Mozilla to just die out, full stop. Then, it could be continued as a more traditional open source project, rather than the design-by-committee "let's copy everything chrome does" mess.
Let me rephrase that: if someone can't keep indentation straight, especially with the fact that an editor is doing most of the work anyway, I wouldn't want them checking in code for any language regardless of whether the white space was syntactically significant or not.
It will literally take any amount of spaces or a single tab character as one level of whitespace. Hell, it doesn't even need to be consistent, you just can't mix, and when outdenting it has to match the level you're going back to. If someone can't manage their whitespace, I wouldn't want them anywhere near real code.
I don't know if things have changed, but it used to be that the primary GPU was always the one doing the rendering, and merely sent the rendered images to the other GPUs (on Windows at least). This means that upgrading the primary GPU would still improve performance of the others.
In corner cases, maybe. In most cases the code will look perfectly fine no matter what indentation width you display it at.
I'm a spaceman myself. I want the code to look exactly like I intended it to look, always.
I really don't care how other people intended their code to look. Nor do I care how my people view my code. Controlling indentation like that makes only marginally more sense than dictating what font someone should view the code. If someone wants to see my code in comic sans with 3.14 column tabs, I don't care. And if you absolutely must format the code a particular way for presentation, expand does the job nicely.
How do you save money on the DAC? If the lightning port only does digital audio out, then you need an external DAC for the headphones, but you still need the internal one for the speakers on the phone.
But the headphone jack isn't going away, you just have to buy an external box now. Just like how Wifi doesn't make ethernet obsolete because the WAP still has to plug into something.

Net booting over Wifi, I would guess.

No, don't try to wipe a disk using block-level transfer. Use ATA secure erase because anything block-level will miss remapped sectors.

Speaking of which, I'm wondering how they plan to track pirates when CG-NAT becomes widespread. Maybe some source port trickery+logging?
What I'd like is the opposite: when watching live TV, slow it down a bit so that I get some buffer time that I can use to skip commercials.
London voted heavily towards remain.

I actually wish someone would hurry up and complete a Debian fork without systemd
What's wrong with apt-get install sysvinit-core?

It's called 'e10s' to the user, because replacing t1e l5s i0n w5s w2h n5s makes so much sense.
