MUSE is the old HD TV standard, the new standard is called ISDBand uses MPEG-2, H.264 or AVS for video. Japan uese MPEG-2 and Brazil uses H.264 for example.
Are they? Are you sure? I am the one to be lucky to understand several languages and therefore be able to read news and information from various countries. I am the worst a propaganda minster could meet.
For the fact that they just didn't know. TEPCO is know to lie and cover up, but in this even they really did the best they can.
It is just hard for outsides (aka people outside of Japan and/or people in Japan who do not understand japanese) to get this. Mainly because really haven't seen the news.
I see this from the other side. I could never understand Fahrenheit at all. What kind of stupid scale is that, where 0 is not a logical 0 but some value where some dude decided that this is the coldest point. Celsius on the other hand is very logical. 0C water freezes, 100C water boils (at sea level of course). For me hearing of F just makes no sense at all. Lucky 99% of the world agrees;)
I don't think so. Just because there was a massive quake, Tsunami and problems with a Nuclear Power plant, none of those are a reason to have a train run late.
It is borked. If you are in Japan, you will be sent to the JP version where there is no article. In future it would be nice to link directly to the US page. Shitty gizmodo design. Seriously.
Actually just dropping the control rods doesn't stop anything. It's the heavy water that is used a s moderator that will stop the CANDU design. While in the Fukushima Design, although the control rods dropped and the reaction stopped, the left over material still went on and you need to cool it for some weeks. Because if you don't, well, you get the problem we have here right now.
Actually the freeded up space is much less and you loose the complete html title. Without the title it is very often a guessing game on which slashdot article I am right now (or any other web page).
And when is this magic memory free up happening? Is it normal that FF uses 1.6GB of ram after 9 hours of ustream? And not clean this up after you close the tab? FF memory usage is the worst of them all, right after Safari.
I was on the 7th floor of our office in Higashi Ginza, our building is fairly old and it swayed around like ocean steamer in the worst storm. Although I normally do not get nervous during earthquakes, this one got me. First time I really saw how helpless you are. When things start to fall over, even my heavy Mac Pro fell, there is nothing you can do.
Had quite some hand shaking afterwards, besides the 4h walk home, which on the other hand was some good exercise for me.
The worst thing is the panic buying, I still don't get it, why people buy 4x12 packs of toilet roles. Same with food, especially that most of the food will spoil and as japanese people are, it will get thrown away anyway. I hope they calm down, the people in the north need to food much more than we down here in Tokyo.
Actually the memory usage for Chrome is much better. Especially because when you close a tab, it cleans up the memory. FF4 still doesn't that and I have again 1GB of memory used by it and I have no idea why...
And who implements those magic Cloud stuff? Setup the mail accounts, fileserver stuff, new PCs, Firewall, VPN, etc? Do you think they will all be done by magic monkey elves from happy fairy Google land?
Even if you put all your file and mail into the cloud, someone needs to maintain that too. On the server side, at the cloud provider, and at the client side, the customer.
And IT Dept is not a type setter or a horseshoe maker...

Actually they are not really a Confucian society. That never picked up here.

Um, I have no idea where you get your information, but TEPCO never said that.
But I guess you are another conspiracy guy on slashdot, so I leave you be.

Actually that is not true. Currencies are often written in front and not at the end. But I agree it just makes no sense at all.

Well put your mom on list and make the list to not see anything. Problem solved.
Or just don't add them in Facebook.
And WebKit is based on KHTML made by the KDE guys ...

As like as america would stop using inches and miles. All the neon lights are working only in the 50 or 60Hz.

I did the same. KDE/Gnome and the whole Linux on the desktop was just a constant downward spiral where I was less and less productive.
Well, Linux, what do you expect? Working experience? Worked all very well here with FF4 Beta 12 in OS X.
In 10 Million years or so, we have our future oil there. Awesome!
It is still horrible to have top replies without a trimmed body. Especially with all the wonderful 50 line long law footer BS in each and every mail.
If you are in america or perhaps England. But the rest of the world is not yet so perverted.
I enjoyed Watchman more than I enjoyed The Dark Knight.
Yup, climate changes, but that's not us doing it. JFYI
