Since this is partially made of paper, (and plastic), would it catch fire if it is too close to a heat source, ie. a CPU
My i3 runs really hot in my laptop and I feel like it will melt the case. (well actually Sony told me that it could catch fire by way of an update and it should never be put on a bed for long periods of time[no air flow])
I feel like this would catch fire even more, and my case is completely plastic...
...The binders or tablets are there to supplement this memory and for use when things slow down, not for use in the middle of a crisis when you have to react in less than a handful of seconds...
So you are saying they have time to re-organize their binders?
Isn't the reason to not use Dolphin HD that they were sending all your web requests back to their own server?
As far as I know the key word is: were
That being said, I don't have ICS so there goes Chrome (you would think Google, would make it available to Gingerbread users too, but apparently they don't have the capabilities to handle WebKit and all of Google's extras)
Opera Mini and Opera lite are pathetic, and Firefox(last time I tried it) was tooooo beta to be anything worth installing.
Oh and the stock web browser "Browser"(where was the creative department on that one?) is a piece as well, sooooooooo..... enter Dolphin HD
And besides, so my urls go to their servers, the other option is Google's, soooooo whatever someone is going to track me, I just have to choose who
I don't care about your always online, don't need a desktop or desktop apps way of doing things
I like my desktop and apps, and I would hate to own a ChromeBook or Book to Gecko or anything like that.
There are still people that enjoy not having to be connected to the internet in order to run their apps/games/etc.
I am tired of this social mobile always online vision that all of these companies are trying to push nowadays.
Just give me a desktop and the ability to install apps and I can do the rest.
I've long said cell phone bills need to be itemized. $x/mo for phone service, $y/mo for data, $z/mo for phone subsidy, etc. If they did that, and the iPhone with Apple surcharge were costing them $1000 vs. $500 for a top-line Android phone, they could just charge double the $z for iPhone customers.
Well they don't have the phone subsidy (although you could probably guess it will be around: Retail Price - 2-Year Contract Price) or anything really hardcore listed on my bill but I do know some information.
I am paying $30 a month for unlimited data (grandfathered in on verizon, thank god), $19.99 for each of my (5) family members for the 700 shared minutes (we really don't like taking to each other), and $6 each for the 5 way split on unlimited messages which is $30 a month(well if I have to talk to them I don't wanna have to call them, do I?), plus their fees
Now to charge more for a phone by making me eat part of the subsidy might get them in hot water with their customer base, but if you really wanted the phone I guess you would buy it anyways.
Does you cell phone carrier not do this? Is it just verizon and everyone else gets: "You owe us: $56.09 this month"?
Only if they have the next iPhone, which will once again make them loose money for another quarter, and then again and again, all the while their shares at $2.38, aren't going to look any better. They don't have the money to be messing around with that. But what do I know, I'm on/.
what happens when the program crashes while searching??
Pilot: "How do I restart engine 3?"
Co-Pilot: "I don't know!!!"
Pilot: "What do you mean you don't know!?!?!?!?!?!!"
Co-Pilot: "Oh the app crashed so it's rebooting, oh and it got updates that it has to download"
Pilot: "'Oh we ar......"
Paper is good!! Stop being cheap, reprint the whole binder for updates and you are good to go if you can't figure out page 2 goes after page 1. At least keep a generic reference one there. But no.... it's all about the benjamins huh?
Which I don't mind certain types of censorship, blocking websites (arbitrarily? Not sure, maybe an algorithm did it... stupid algorithm) is something I am not all about.
However when I went to school, they did block the internet because as many have pointed out: "It is a privilege not a right".
In fact not only did they block certain web sites, but they also required! (without it you could not get online) Symantec anti-virus, with all privileges locked down, which they would run virus scans whenever they felt like it even if you were working on your computer.
Oh and before all of this, they would make you run a program that would I guess report back that you were clear for anti-virus download and internet integration or something like that that would require you to remove all P2P software ( *torrent* ) on your computer otherwise guess what, no internet for you
Why are we letting the government give a pass to big businesses that simply can't secure their computers. We should be fining them for letting the malware infect their computers in the first place, rather then allowing all the malware to stay on the computers in the first place.
We are just perpetuating the malware/virus problem by giving companies a pass. They won't learn anything, they won't be more money in security since they will think: "Oh we just have to wait for the government to step in, then we will be fine", and they will NEVER learn!
HAHAHA, I was thinking of dominoes(the ones you set up and then push one over and watch the rest fall, NOT the game with numbers on it), but that would be hilarious.
Although I would figure they would test it on "rough terrain"(IE: uneven road surfaces) or throw it into a car testing course where you get different types of road surfaces from asphalt, to concrete, to dirt, to those stones, and anything else seen in Europe.
"Once received, the signature on the ballot is matched with registration records to further verify identity."
This would only work in fax or mail-in ballots, unless you can use your mouse to "write" your signature which may or may not look like your actually handwritten signature.
But that aside, I am still not convinced the paper ballots work: Florida re-count anyone?!?!
So you may need to prove it works, but even then there can be some errors... and the system as a whole still "works"
She should of just used DBAN and a DOD secure erase program like you said.... that would pretty much do it don't you think?
From the article:
"The Fifth Amendment says that nobody may be "compelled in any criminal case to be a witness against himself," which has become known as the right to avoid self-incrimination."
Seems to me that decrypting a hard drive with information that might incriminate you would be a violation of that 5th Amendment right....
This also bothers me quite a bit, they can't even get their stories straight:
"In March 2010, a federal judge in Michigan ruled that Thomas Kirschner, facing charges of receiving child pornography, would not have to give up his password. That's "protecting his invocation of his Fifth Amendment privilege against compelled self-incrimination," the court ruled."
"A year earlier, a Vermont federal judge concluded that Sebastien Boucher, who a border guard claims had child porn on his Alienware laptop, did not have a Fifth Amendment right to keep the files encrypted. Boucher eventually complied and was convicted."
Oh and I don't believe in them hiding behind the fact that they aren't requiring the password, the result is the same, the hard drive is decrypted and any evidence there could incriminate themselves. Asking her to just type in the password is the same thing as getting the password from her.
I wasn't saying that 3D is better served by an FPU, but we are taking about the DS so it's all just "fake" 3D and when you are dealing with an LCD panel, I cannot light half a pixel differently from the other half, so what is the point is having the greater precision if you just throw it all out when you actually display the new frame??
I was just saying it is a waste of CPU cycles to do all the fancy math and just throw it out at the end anyways. Why not just stick with integer-based math?
Plus I was limiting my discussion on the DS, NOT desktop computers in general, so graphics cards are out
I wasn't really freaking out.... ok well maybe a little, but I was just pointing out the fact that what he was saying does absolutely nothing except change the way YOUR google search results look, not everyone elses.
To remove the feature here is how you really do it:
Account Settings --> Profile and Privacy -->Edit visibility on profile
Then on the bottom: Profile Discovery, click that and uncheck the box
HAHAHAA, as if that actually works!!! That only works for YOU!!! Not everyone else!
So yes you are correct, you can disable personal results FOR YOU, but everyone else can still view the personalized results that would still put YOU in THEIR search result list
So I don't really think that helps very much. Plus you cannot even change the visibility of certain areas of your profile which doesn't help much
Slashdot Mirror
lol the lack of the ';' got to me too.
First, let's start off by being civil, LOVE your sig.
Having said that, I was just reporting what Sony told me....Sony Safety Notice
Hey I just sent in my analysis of the PHP file they were asking about.
Anyone wanna take a second look?
I'm not that great of a PHP coder, but maybe a second, third, nth pair of eyes could help figure it all out.
BTW, they called me A6.
jesus, you would think with a post history like manysky211 has, that they would be removed from slashdot. reported as spam.

They do, but they only support Microsh!t programs.
OMG!!! Finally!!!!
I can understand what they are going through, inheriting.... well maybe commandeering is a better word, old code.
Can't wait to check out the new version

I wish CmdrTaco was here right now......

Moore's Law will cut than half twice in the next three years to $50. Is that affordable yet?
Moore's Law say nothing of price, and for that matter speed, but number of transistors, which CAN equate to speed, but does not necessarily. FYI
Yup and all that mercury goes into land fills..... awesome!!!
