"The original USB 1.0 specification, which was introduced in January 1996, defined data transfer rates of 1.5 Mbit/s "Low Speed" and 12 Mbit/s "Full Speed". The first widely used version of USB was 1.1, which was released in September 1998. The 12 Mbit/s data rate was intended for higher-speed devices such as disk drives, and the lower 1.5 Mbit/s rate for low data rate devices such as joysticks."
This is a sort of "No True Scotsman" fallacy and a means of deflecting arguments that one cannot effectively counter. If the teacher cannot adequately explain the lesson to the student, then that is a failing of the teacher and not the student. The teacher needs to pick a form the student can make use of.
Further, it is an implicit admission that said religious book of choice cannot be useful to every human in any one form. That's an important concept, emphasizing the importance of content over form.
A universal theology has been, is, and will be, impossible.
If he had posted this once it could have been a legit, if off-topic concern. Since he had to post it multiple times like an APK-wannabe, we can see he's just flamebaiting.
My PS3 simply shows a nice static menu with a bar 'wave' moving up and down a little. No menu's at all. And I'm not even paying for Net access.
I recall that ad ticker first appearing in the 3.00 firmware... it still bothers me. That was also the point at which the "PLAYSTATION 3" startup became PS3, which looks a bit out of place if you don't have a slim.
This story reminds me, however, that what Sony has done on this matter is a whole lot less intrusive than MS's choices.
The fusion reaction supposedly happening in the interior of the Sun produces copious amounts of neutrinos. However, the number of neutrinos that should be measured here on earth from the sun are far below what we should see if the fusion model were correct.
Looks trollish to me but I do want to address this particular falsehood about solar neutrinos.
The solar neutrino problem was a major discrepancy between measurements of the numbers of neutrinos flowing through the Earth and theoretical models of the solar interior, lasting from the mid-1960s to about 2002. The discrepancy has since been resolved by new understanding of neutrino physics, requiring a modification of the Standard Model of particle physics – specifically, neutrino oscillation. Essentially, as neutrinos have mass, they can change from the type that had been expected to be produced in the Sun's interior into two types that would not be caught by the detectors in use at the time.
What about ladyboys? The term is associated with a specific type of prostitution in SE Asia (particularly Thailand) and I'm under the impression it's a concept created by pimps looking for something exotic to offer rather than a naturally occurring group of guys who want to be girls. That is to say, the term denotes a kind of profession rather than an identity.
Unless something has changed over the last few years, no one in the US LGBTQ community uses this term when arguing about rights.
Just wanted to say that... if wages are as stagnant for the next 40 years as they have been for the last 40, then having more than 2 adults living together may become a necessity if you wish to have a household with children.
A variant of this has already happened with so many of the under-30 crowd being out of work and having to live with their parents.
I should mention that anything that crashes the main thread, crashes all the tabs anyways, so all that Google's engineers managed to do was make it so that you have more processes that can crash.
I don't use Chromium too often, but when I do use it I see many zombie processes... apparently a side effect of the way they handle tabs.
Why should one person have any entitlement to the organs of another person? There is no saving of life, merely postponement of death.
It a personal choice. I'm certainly not ashamed to say that I wouldn't want my organs going into a Steve Jobs or a Dick Cheney, nor do I want anyone profiting from my body parts.

USB debuted in 1999?
I had USB in Windows 98.
TFS is just plain wrong. From https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/USB...

If they aren't connected to the Internet, fine.
He didn't provide more details, but I'm assuming the worst in this case. :)
We are less than 2 years away from XP going EOL.
The time to start planning for that transition, especially at such a large company, was yesterday.
The barycenter of the Sun/Jupiter system lies at 1.07 solar radii from the Sun's core (i.e. outside the Sun). Is the Sun a binary star?
For those curious, the barycenter of the Earth/Moon system is well inside the Earth, despite the Moon relatively energetic orbit.
It's not like you have to sit through a commercial
Ssshhh... don't give them any ideas! :P

it will at least show beyond any doubt how deeply corporations have penetrated into every faucet of daily living.
I though they were in everything but the kitchen sink!
Truly, these are dark times.
You like to complain about others making hyperbolic posts, yet every single post you make is an exaggerated bluster-filled rant.
Your endless faux outrage is fucking boring. Get a new gimmick and maybe I'll consider reading your comments again.
I'm logged in, I have no clue why this ended up as AC.

Your link is a 404...
I believe hawguy was being sarcastic... :)
ever heard of romhustler dot net?
Not as easy as a all-in-one torrent, but they have lots of stuff and nice hosting.
I think you misspelled "download emulators and roms".
USB adaptors are available for many system's controllers if you want accuracy of input.
Pair bonding is good for society, regardless of the respective genders of the couple. It's healthy that society promotes it.

LOL... well played.
For the record, I like Opera. :)

This is on Arch Linux.
Must be costly indeed when using diamonds is the cheaper alternative. :)

Confusion of cue and queue seems as /. specific as hot grits or goatse. I have yet to see a poster confuse the two on any other site.
