has been is that they are thermally constrained and achieve these remarkable results when its starts cold. As soon it heats up the processors starts throttling and doesn't do well compared to Qualcomm, Exynos etc. This is why it does well on Geekbench benchmarks but not so well in some of the other benchmarks.
It is not just Samsung other manufacturers are in the same boat. The Motorola G4 Plus for example was sold with the promise that it will get Oreo in a future update. It yet to see an OS update 9 months after release. In a few months, Google will release the next version of Android. At this point it looks Lenovo/Motorola has played a bait and switch.
While desktop OS support multiple 10-year old hardwares it a pity that Google has not been able to come up with a update mechanism which can support phone older than 2 years. Whatever updates Google provides is limited to a few devices, My 4-year old Android non-Google phone is still very capable and meets my needs but the fact that it has no security updates scares me.
If you look at the standard compliance of the browsers in the Windows '98 era, IE had better CSS support and a much compliance support for w3c recommendations than the offering that Netscape had.
On top of that I loved Netscape 3, but Netscape 4 was a bloated piece of crap.
Microsoft copies Apple's idea and makes it difficult to develop apps for your own use. Why should I pay $99 / year if all the apps that I develop are for own and family use? I would rather buy a nexus device in the absence of a similar option from Microsoft.
That was my first thought do. Physical access is needed to break the hardware.
The Researchers just say that the security measures used are low tech and easy to break, but show no demonstration about breaking it in a simulation/real polling situation. I personally think its hard to pull off in a polling booth.
Second, With the size of India's population I would rather that India continues to use EVMs and switch to paper trail methods -- Please think of the trees. Using paper is not only is bad for the environment also substantially increases the cost (for support staff to count/manage paper votes, security, transporation etc.)
WPF 3.5sp1 source is not completely on the site. The reference blog claims that source for wpfgfx_v0300.dll for example but you will not find it on the reference site. Even the blog lies.
Anyways, 3.5sp1 is not new. When you have 4.0 released over a month ago.
It works only if the reference code site is alive. The site was dead for a week. I check it a few hours ago when debugging is Visual Studio. Microsoft seems to have restarted the site when this story hit Slashdot!
1. It's true that the reference source site has been down for several days but now appears to be up again 2. It's also true that NOBODY from MS has been responding to questions about the lack of.Net 4.0 source code, or any other question for that matter about reference source
I'm not bashing MS in general; in fact, I make my living by developing solutions centered around MS technology. However, I'm extremely annoyed at the lack of proper maintenance of the reference source archive. Not only about the bits that have never made it there to begin with, but that almost a month after the release of.Net 4.0/VS 2010, there's still no code for.Net 4.0. !
The lack of of.Net 4.0 code bugs me too. But fortunately VS 2010 supports.Net 3.5 too, so its easy to figure out the issue by debugging using 3.5 When the reference site was down even that was possible.
Unless you are using the new concurrent stuff or other.Net 4.0 specific stuff, debugging in 3.5 works fine. I used to clean the my symbols cache folder periodically., but I have figured out how valuable it can be when Microsoft site goes down.

This is precisely why ICANN should stop requiring postal and/or phone number in the WHOIS records.

calculate the image hashes.
There are several libraries available to calculate image hashes that can be built into a desktop tool
For example: https://github.com/JohannesBuc...
The Android version is available on the Play Store: https://play.google.com/store/...
Set the connection as a metered connection. Windows Update will not pull updates over the connection.

Interestingly, the manual radio says "FM Radio - Yes".
I don't recollect a Nexus device with a functioning FM Radio.

Microsoft has a equivalent to Hadoop known as Dryad.
They should have open-sourced Dryad a long time ago.
I wonder what is going to happen to Dryad with this focus on Hadoop.

If its just the click result for some weird search words then I would say Microsoft was being very clever.
If Microsoft is exclusively using Google's click-through data for the all the popular search words then Microsoft is cheating.
Microsoft's H.264 addon for Firefox has a bad memory leak.

So this might be bad for Chrome.
Replied to wrong thread! Sorry.
Not quite true. See Bellard's formula and Bailey's formula on which it is based.
Bailey–Borwein–Plouffe formula lets you calculate the n-th digit of pi without calculating the n-1 digits.
I wonder what formula was used to calculate the digit here.

Yeah, the are several dams wider than Hoover.
The one of the widest that I know of is the Hirakud Dam in India is 26 km wide also build in the 1950s

They fixed it as soon as this story was posted. Tricky Microsoft!
Look at the forums. It was dead for more than a week.
