This release also permanently removes support for NPAPI plugins. This was disabled by default in the last few releases, but could be turned back on. Now it is gone for good, along with support for a large number of plugins, including Microsoft Silverlight, some SharePoint features and some games like Battlefield 4 Battleblog Ouch.
I had an ASUS tablet that stopped working. Turned out the battery is just stuck in with double-sided tape and it had moved enough for the connector to come loose. Run a guitar pick around the outside of the screen to open it up and plug the battery back in!
I've been playing Eve Online daily for 2 years now, and still haven't managed to complete it. Sandbox games are good like that. In fact I don't think I've played anything else in that time, except to join the annual Nethack tournamement for old times' sake.
You don't have to be caught on video to have snoopers ruin your day. Spare a thought for the guys who kept a mannequin (named Lucy) in their apartment "to keep the place tidy", and then got raided by the cops because someone thought they spotted a body..
"Iceland plans to become the first oil-free country by 2050." Wow. That's impressive. So they're not going to use any products made from plastic, or oil-based paints, lubricants, etc?
If N1 Grid Containers work well it will be a major improvement on the competition. In HP-UX if you want to set up V-Pars you need to dedicate at least one CPU, physical disks and a network interface to every partition, and resource allocation is at the whole CPU level. With an 8 CPU machine that doesn't give you much leeway if you want to have 3 or 4 test environments.
With N1 Grid Containers OS instances sit on top of a "master" OS, so resources can be divided at a much finer level. You could presumably have a production partition with 80% of the cpu power allocated to it, and a bunch of test partitions sharing the rest, and dynamically increase the CPU power of the test partitions when it was prudent to do so.
Same thing back when I was doing Comp Sci at the Australian National University back in '91. It was our lecturer's pet project and he once spent half a lecture drawing tree diagrams of who had copied from who and how is program had detected it.
"We are not planning any product updates to Ximian GNOME 1.2. During 2002, we plan to release Ximian GNOME 1.4 for HP-UX, with limited support available from HP."

Hey, it worked for the Terminator!
But he's nothing compared to teh_pwnerer ;-)
Kind of reminds me of this guy. If you are into gaming, those videos are classic!
Halloween for me always means the start of the annual Nethack Tournament! So hook it up to your big screen TV and put on your +5 Amulet of Geekiness!
What has the United States got to do with it?
Roche is a Swiss company.

ADSL may have Linux support from Telstra, but Cable doesn't. Still works, though.
We tried this during a mate's buck's night last week. Works just fine with a candle and a beer glass! We stopped after the beer glass shattered.

You know, I think there is a market out there for a news site which presents all news for the day in Haiku!
