Seems to me it would be easier and more maintainable to check the author of the driver and give precedence to NVidia drivers over Microsoft drivers rather than back-dating your own...but maybe that's why I'm not a Microsoft software engineer, they obviously know more than me.
Commissioner Margrethe Vestager said: "E-commerce should give consumers a wider choice of goods and services, as well as the opportunity to make purchases across borders.

So the MPAA, Amazon, Netflix, Hulu, et al. can geoblock, but video game publishers/distributors can't?
You aren't leaving yourself any room for expansion in the future.... what is the next speed increase going to be marketed as? super ultra? ultimate ultra?
Plus Ultra.
Then Double Plus Ultra
Or maybe Good Ultra, then Plus Good Ultra...Double Plus Good Ultra...
Though the new study wasn't designed to address racial disparities, experts speculate that the large difference reflects unequal access to preventative medicine and quality healthcare.
But, but, everyone is supposed to have affordable, quality health insurance! It's required!
I have a coworker who's holding on to his Note 7. He's been staying on top of all of this. It appears that after a recall, a company cannot require nor continue requiring payment for a recalled device. Some may argue that he has a loan he still owes Verizon, but it appears also that Samsung bought out all those loans.
There has been no word from Verizon that they will prorate service contracts since they are effectively disabling service...that's gotta be some kind of illegal.
I haven't confirmed any of the above, as I don't care, but I do find it interesting.
I think Verizon and the other carriers have done all they should do for the recall; my coworker even got the fire-proof box shipped to his house for the return. He likes the phone, he knows about the (extremely minor) risk, and wants to keep the phone. All Verizon is doing with this is pissing off those few thousand customers.
Please spare me the "people being ale to speak their minds" BS.
I originally read this as "Please spare me the 'people bring ale to speak their minds' BS." I thought to myself: that's not BS, people DO bring ale to speak their minds. And now the company can't sue you for what you speak your mind, having brought ale. Sort of.
Gotcha, but that's not what I meant; I was referring to parent's "little box" and meant pulling the transponder and system out of the rolled vehicle to use nefariously. No need to build a device, when everything's already there. Just pull it apart, spoof some sensors, and it will tell vehicles whatever you want.
I can see VIN or MAC filtering, such that when a vehicle is taken out of service due to something like a rollover, its VIN/MAC is then ignored on the network...but big deal, spoof another VIN/MAC.
This is going to be abused. People will have so much fun with this, it'll be unreal. Imagine a little box you can buy/build that spoofs a vehicle system and tricks all the cars in a 100 meter radius into executing an emergency stop...
Yea, that won't be difficult to extract from a rolled vehicle at all...
"poles less compressed" means the poles are farther apart, effectively elongating the planet along its spinning axis. This will "shrink" the equator; statement is correct.
...a burger flipper doesn't deserve as much as a skilled electrician, but what they do deserve is enough to live on (as anyone working full time does).
No, they deserve only what their work is worth. Nothing more. Ever.
If they don't think that's right, they can go find another job. If they can't go find another job, then their work probably isn't worth as much as they thought.
Level 5 means not having any controls that a human can use. So, unless their "future upgrade" includes ripping out the steering wheel and pedals, etc, then the car is only "level 4 ready".
No, level 5 simply means fully autonomous, the system controls everything with no human interaction.
Because buying a Vizio smart TV and teaching my wife to use it is FAR, FAR easier than setting up MythTV, or KODI, or whatever HTPC system and teaching my wife to use it all.
One remote. Bolt the TV to the wall. Done. Cheaper, too, because I didn't have to buy/assemble/relocate a PC.
I wish I could have done the latter, but I must think of who really uses the TV more than I do, and I like to keep some things simple for other house guests.

It does, thanks. That's why I commented; hopefully someone had more complete information than myself or TFA.

I suppose that makes sense. Or something.
It still can't hold a candle to Gnome 3.
This is factually correct.

compounded by "more than twice as close." Does that mean less than half the distance (my guess) or more than half the distance?
Yes.
I always wonder about the use of the term "Ultra"

Might I refer you to the Sokal Affair?

A 50 percent increase is not even close to doubling deliveries...
Hey now, this is no place for maths and reasoning!

Interesting. I've never seen a keyboard and mouse used to connect a device to a screen. This truly is newsworthy!

You might be spending too much time on Slashdot.
Don't listen to him. You don't need that kind of negativity in your life.
So.... is this a bad law or a good law? I don't know whether or not be outraged...
Yes. You definitely should...

Considering the street protests after she lost, this seems to be the most accurate part of the article.
