I eat plenty. It's just a matter of how each human being is constructed. My grandpa was skinny, my father was skinny, so am I. I'm one of the lucky few who can eat as much as they like but don't get fat. U jelly?:)
No, I actually have moving eyeballs. I don't need to raise my neck, I just point my eyes a bit upwards. Also, I spend most time looking at and around the center of the screen, and to the sides. FYI, I'm 33 and been working full-time with computers since I was 14. I'm emaciated, 6 feet tall and weigh 140-something pounds. And yes, i think good posture is great to have, but I also think the limitation imposed by some "specialists" are ridiculously tight.
None of my monitors have their top slightly below my eyes. I eyeball monitors all day long (10-16 hours a day). My neck is fine, thanks for asking. Not all people are alike, no matter how much specialists struggle to classify them and put them in little boxes.
Of course it doesn't. Naming/Shaming is not allowed. I was sarcastic, of course. They don't do it, though, because it'd probably put them in a crossfire of lawsuits coming from powerful companies. Nobody wants that. They will lose simply by being bullied financially. It's all about who brings more lawyers to the table, not who's right or wrong.
Furthermore, I wonder what the impact this discover has, other than "hey, we know one more thing that nobody's ever going to use or ask about. Ever. Again." Pardon my bluntness, but this is right there in top 5 of most arid, useless discoveries I ever heard about.
That's something other groups are to be worried about in my company. I'm a mere user who receives patch notifications when they come to me and follows directions. It's not my personal phone and I treat it as such. Oh and I don't own it, not for the first two years, at least. Te company owns it. And when the company says "here, you can choose between a Blackberry, an iPhone and a HTC" I took the HTC because the other options sucked more, to me, at least. By this time next year I will fully own it, and then I would probably sell it upfront or give it to my kid to destroy:)
Offtopic, sort of, but never have I seen, in about 8 years or so, a computer component being toasted by static discharge, and here nobody ever uses grounding when they work with hardware.
1. Go Launcher EX. It's super-effective:) 2. No. There's no need for an Average Joe to hack and put some (officially) unsupported software release on a phone. If you really need CyanogenMod, there's a plethora of products which can be hacked as such. One of the main reasons my (very large) company uses HTC smartphones is exactly that: they are far more difficult to root. It's something Global Security was looking for. 3a: yes, that's a deal-breaker for me. My HTC Desire S with Androind 2.3.5 had an issue where it would completely hang when docked, and there was NO method do make it work again, except popping the battery out. So if this shit happens on a phone with no removable battery, what are you going to do? Wait until battery drains out? 3b: I realized I don't care. I never took my SD card out of the phone, always used dock or USB cable to transfer stuff, so there's no difference if it's glued to the phone or removable. 4. Updates are good, but sometimes they are simply not feasible for older phones.
Bullshit. My Dell D620 works like a charm, but I replaced it still because I needed more computing power. It's dated but apart from battery wearing off it has absolutely no issues whatsoever, not even the HDD is problematic. And we're talking here about a laptop which I almost never shut down, not even while traveling (suspend mode FTW). Now I have an almost 2-year old Lenovo T410 which, again, I never shut down, just restart when required. CrystalDiskInfo shows my laptop HDD has 15989 Power On Hours (666 days, 5 hours). You don't even want to see my home PC HDDs Power On Count (I'm talking 6+ years of non-stop functioning here).
TFA is riddled with retarded assumptions. Too many times have I seen things like "I think 30% of all people would buy it", based on muddy facts or even no facts at all. GAAAH!
I agree with a task taking 6 minutes although it said it needed 5 to complete. But when it says "1 second remaining" for 10 fucking MINUTES... no amount of excuse would justify that, because there is simply no excuse for it.
“We’re very sensitive to privacy, so these logs are only turned on and used with explicit permission from the customer and their signature. For media driving, we turn on logging, which tells us position, speed, the nature of the car, what somebody’s doing with the car in terms of charging, all that. The reason we do that is because we had a bad experience in the past with a show called Top Gear, which pretended our car ran out of charge and pushed it home. We looked at the logs and found that it had 50 miles of range left and they were just faking it. After that, we trust but verify; in this case, it seems we’ve had to do that again.”
For the fun of it, I tried it. Not with your CV, which, if it's a PPTX, I wouldn't want to open anyway. Guess what. It worked. Granted, some features were missing, but the main information was there. Go figure...

Maybe they haven't cricked, erm CHECKED it thoroughly.

Yes. Have you heard of grammar?

This is only happening because there's no entry called "Duh, yo!" in the picklist.
Then you should have said "yello" to him.
They're 74% right.
...Or those who pirate it :)
But I get your point though, here we're talking about legally installed suites, and yes, you're right.
...And then you disappear into the void :)

Sad but true. I still have quite a few old phones which work perfectly fine but can't really be re-used.
I agree with a task taking 6 minutes although it said it needed 5 to complete. But when it says "1 second remaining" for 10 fucking MINUTES... no amount of excuse would justify that, because there is simply no excuse for it.
If that happens (forgetting to plug it in), I bet it won't happen more than twice. Afterwards, you'll surely remember :)
From TFA:
“We’re very sensitive to privacy, so these logs are only turned on and used with explicit permission from the customer and their signature. For media driving, we turn on logging, which tells us position, speed, the nature of the car, what somebody’s doing with the car in terms of charging, all that. The reason we do that is because we had a bad experience in the past with a show called Top Gear, which pretended our car ran out of charge and pushed it home. We looked at the logs and found that it had 50 miles of range left and they were just faking it. After that, we trust but verify; in this case, it seems we’ve had to do that again.”
He also says they have the car logs. That's gonna be interesting to look at.

This reminds me of someone who was planting lots of garlic around his house too keep the vampires away. No vampires around, so his solution worked.
