I thought windows already had with suspend to ram, or is sleep like windows hibernate? I use suspend to ram on my desktop and laptop and its pretty near instant on. As in it beats the lcd screen's annoying logo display that takes a second or so. People just need to know it exists more.
Most of us probably eat something that is mildly toxic and we're unaware of it because our bodies will handle it. Increase the amounts though and it would be different. Caffeine springs to mind as one of the obvious common ingredients.
I wouldn't put it that way. What they are getting at is only those that take action are bad. I'm sure a large percentage of the population would be considered bad if the mere private thought was the only criteria required. I'm thinking of just a basic work day, driving to work and someone cuts you up, you wish something bad would happen to them. Only if you act on that impulse are you going to be considered bad.
Now, I'm not trying to defend pedophiles but look at this objectively for a moment. Currently it's considered very bad to have sex with a child, but look back 50 or 60 years and I'm sure the same moral outrage was directed also at anyone having sex with someone of the same gender. The reason it is different now is people understand that it is not a sickness or illness of the mind that can be cured. Sexual orientation is just another part of what makes up an individual. The same can be said about pedophiles which is where we have the problem. We want to be able to cure it but we can't. Any method taken is likely to be equally morally objectionable as the problem itself.
When there isn't enough choice it probably won't matter whether the public supports it or not. Electric isn't an option for a lot of people unless they have secured carports/garages. The cost of a conversion to LPG isn't quite justifiable yet, it would take many years to scratch back the expense. And I'm sure if this became the mainstream fuel then it would become as heavily taxed as petrol is right now.
Here in the UK the prices keep going up until it hits a threshold and protests start. At the moment (and with current exchange rates) the average price per US gallon is about $6 though it can fluctuate a lot depending on where you live. I have one gas station nearby charging as much as $6.50. Although in Europe the UK is expensive, its not the worst. There also appear to be a large number of people who just don't care enough to notice how much they pay, according to this story, some people thought the price per litre was 3 pounds!
I shall! It sounds like that PDF995 software has taken a very naive approach to PDF creation. Both Adobe's printer driver and the one available to KDE create proper PDF documents where the text remains as text. I just 'printed' the jsr 170 spec (something like 238 pages) from kpdf. The generated PDF was 1.6MB to the original 2.3MB, also the text in the generated file was still selectable.
The only time I would complain about mp3 quality is when someone tries to put more than whats sensible onto those early tiny flash memory players. You know, more than an album onto a 64mb type.
All manual cameras are really wonderful. Once you are out there, hiking a desert or marveling the cold of Antarctica, you ain't gonna be charging your batteries for a digital camera for sure...
Personally I would take spare batteries, a backup storage device and a solar battery charger:)
I also doubt most people would be in those situations and as such the market for manual cameras will continue to dwindle but not die out. Somewhat similar to outdated transportation, there will always be a place for horses, camels and husky teams. It just won't be for the masses and large companies out to make profit.
I find that FBI warning a nice refreshing change from what I'm used to. Some region 2 DVD's have warnings for the majority of european languages. The worst I've seen was 22 warnings at 10 seconds each. Luckily the menu button is still active at this point or much player abuse would have occurred. I'm also beginning to see a trend in forced playing anti-piracy adverts and badly designed forced country selection screens where I need to press the down button 50 odd times till I get to the right frickin country.
Almost sounds similar to the copy protection used on C64 disk games. The head of the 1541 drive would be knocked (ungently) out of alignment to read parts of the disk.
The control pad was great. So great that it worked without mods on the C64. I rewired mine slightly so that the second fire button acted the same as pressing up. Made playing platform games much better IMO:)
I was using list view in Windows Explorer the other day and renamed a file in it. I was shocked to discover it didn't automatically reposition itself in the list based on its new name.
Thats arguably a feature. Sorting is something that should happen when you first open a view onto a folder or when you change the sort criteria. Sorting should NOT mean that when you rename a file it suddenly jumps to another part of the list, making it seem like it disappeared, or alternatively cause your place in the list to suddenly jump. That's an unexpected side effect, NOT a feature.
I thought I'd add something more to this point. If you're viewing a folder and an application creates a new file in it then the file appears at the very end of the list. Way easier to spot it as you're likely to have an active interest in the file. If you want the folder sorted, hit refresh.
It doesn't need to be from a web page. Email has been a very efficient propagation channel for such programs and chat programs are likely to be the next one.
Besides all that, every platform has its idiots and cheapskates that just love to click on buttons. It only takes a few to be worthwhile.
I swear I saw a previous article mentioning that OSX will only run on Apple hardware. Not everyone will be willing to buy a brand new machine just to run another OS, specially so if it was expensive in the first place. This article can only be valid IFF apple allow OSX to run on non-apple hardware. Will article writers get their facts straight first? Otherwise this is hype/bull/scaremongering/advert trolling, whatever you want to call it a timewasting piece of crap.
What does the screen resolution have to do with installing apache? If its a server then a gui is a complete waste of resources. I can't think of a single distribution that doesn't have a way to install from a command line be it on the console or through a ssh session. Since I'm a debian person here is all that is needed to get a working apache installation...
apt-get install apache
Nowt else. If its an rpm based distro then its a bit more work but the rpm program will tell you what dependencies are required or you could use yum or apt if its available.
Course then you have to configure it but that would be the same regardless of how it was installed. There is also lovely documentation with any distribution that covers this sort of thing. There are also some books available dedicated to the command line.
Everyone values their spare time differently. Some will enjoy learning how to do this themselves whilst others will consider some other task more worthy of their time. That doesn't mean you should insult those that are willing to learn with the 'more power to you' nonsense.
Comparing the time taken to how much is earned is such a daft argument its funny as this is obviously aimed at leisure time. I doubt many would take timeoff from their work for a few hours to set up something like this so they aren't losing anything in earnings.
I don't buy anything but if I'm bored I try to string them along for as much as possible wasting their money. With any luck I'll eventually be blacklisted and not receive any more calls.
120mm fan on the inside of the case, once its mounted it is like having a fanless PSU. Their 120mm case fans are very quiet too, not to mention color coordinating.

And if I was getting something that big, it'd be more like one of these
Don't forget to add on 2" in each dimension for the sound proofing...

It wouldn't be just one cent either; it would cost more than a $1 to collect the tax.
Not to mention, it is already taxed in a way. VAT is charged on your phone bill and internet access.

skipping the FBI warning and trailers

And I suspect already has enough infrastructure in place. Look at all the trafficmaster cameras on the side of the road.

I wonder how many of these are in the creative/graphics department though.

You don't happen to know, did they win anything? :D

dude, I get 1,200,000!!
next time use quotes
I can recommend one of these.

or try moving the actual tower further away from you(cheapest solution)
in addition since I've seen way too many setups like this.. get the bloody thing off the desk!
