I would suggest it risks more than that. It risks being labeled anti-competitive...
I suspect there will be quite some discussion about that at Apple, They dont want another bit PR hit right now, as they are somewhat low in the good news stakes anyway.
Then again, if they think they can get away with it..
Can you please explain to me then how a band can record their live gig? Surely they need the permission of every single person there.
How could news do a live interview (which they also record) with someone outside if others speak? Do they need their permission also, as they also get recorded.
Making a video of your own kids playing the in the park must be difficult also, what with all the other people permission you need to get.
Best we just ban the public from doing any recording, dont you think? safer for everyone.. hmmm?
No, you complete moron (why not keep the tone going?)
The energy density of the SUN is not even close to high enough, even if the panels were 100% efficient. ie: it MUST be huge, to be exposed to enough light to work - IT CANNOT BE MINIATURISED and more than the hoover dam could be put in your bathtub and still deliver the same power.
At takeoff a 747 required around 90MW of power, bright sunblight can provide a peak of around 1kW per m2. So you would need around 90000 m2 of surface area, or 300x300 meters (984x984 feet). That is around 15 standard football fields (of course it would reduce to ONLY 7 football fields when cruising)
I think you will find the point is that Intel/Microsoft are int he middle of making big things about the power efficiency of Windows 8, whereas they are playing catchup in a lot of areas with Linux, for which Intel currently say they will not release the same information on Haswell that they have given Microsoft.
Smells a lot of Intel teaming up with Microsoft specifically against ARM (which has very good Linux support..), and I am guessing means Windows on Arm is going to get pretty damn poor support.
The obvious (possible) trade here is Intel gives Msoft the advantage on Haswell in return for MSoft not taking their Win8 ARM 'commitment' quite as seriously as some thought they would.
No, obviously you have no idea what you are talking about in this case.
Reference counting (ARC) is EXACTLY a form of garbage collection, not particularly better or worse than any other.
You DO realise that ARC imposes a runtime cost which some other garbage collectors do not? no? thought not.
You DO realise that ARC is sensitive to some forms of data structure that it cannot collect? (circular references) and then needs to fall back to other forms of GC? no? thought not.
And no, iOS cannot just run multiple apps at the same time to use multiple cores, as iOS only supports specifically written background tasks - it cannot just continue normal execution of a non-foreground task.
You also, I bet, dont know what a process scheduler is, since that addresses your idiocy about primary apps being slower.
I kind of feel sorry for the corporate IR development teams you worked with, but then since you worked in Java, I am not really that surprised.
Really, your UID is low enough that you should know better..
Not the gentle, "my kid is a bit different and doesnt learn well" type, the "this child will spend life in a wheelchair, with a head brace, except when 2-3 adults are physically helping them, is likely to die from swallowing their own tongue/vomit/saliva, and if not could possibly live until a good solid 15 years old, they cannot communicate in any way with those around then except in the very most basic anger/peaceful/other level, and fights for basic existance" type - I can assure you they would like a cure.
Count yourself lucky if your child is not in that group, and dont talk such rubbish.
The iPhone and the iPad were run away successes and sold many orders of magnitude more than their precursors however thankfully that counts for NOTHING in establishing their inventiveness.
there were a number of 'useful' touchscreen AND flat faced phones that are clear precursors to the iPhone, and there were also a number of functional tablets.
And WTF has 1TB of memory got to do with anything? iPhone did not supplant all preexisting phones by any stretch.
the fact is that apple took a bunch of pre-existing ideas, mixed them together in their own way, then are TRYING to claim ownership of all of those ideas, which is simply not the law.
Have a LOO at patent requirements, one of them is that something would not be obvious to someone knowledgeable in the art. ie: if making a phone minimality/rectangular, given the availability of a touchscreen, is obvious, then it CANNOT be patented.
Its the patent office that is most to blame here, they are not following their own rules..
A design mark however requires that one device could be reasonably mistaken for the other - printing SAMSUNG clearly across the face, for example, pretty much kills that idea - as does being a different aspect ratio, size, etc. Its designed to stop exact cloning.
"Researchers have discovered that relatively little exposure to television and other electronics with backlit displays can keep people up at night by messing with their circadian rhythms."

And finally:

No, you are wrong, it is the end of no matter. A pilot has such rights, but most certainly must defend his actions after the fact, in the same way a police officer, or a boat captain must. How do I know? my father was a pilot for 40 years, and had to do this several times.
A pilot better have damn good reasons for using his powers, and someone being a bit annoying is not going to cut it.
Common uses are having people who are causing a physical threat on a plane physically restrained if in flight or removed from the plane if not. They are always careful about the use of such powers, and are expected (and required) to use a suitable level of reaction, although the benifit of the doubt is likely to fall their way when it comes to differing stories (same was as for police, etc..)
Not allowing someone on a plane for wearing somewhat offensive clothing? thats pretty damn far from what they are allowed to do.
Of course it is quite laughable that they have absolute power with no need to defend themselves, get some perspective.
HOWEVER, looking at the story thats NOT even what happened. the airport cops (not the TSA) jerked the poor guy around so much the flight was going to be held up, so the pilot said he would not wait and left - he refused entry to the guy here as a way of releasing his flight to leave. Therefore, the fault is with the rent-a-cops playing power games on the ground, not the pilot.
it is producted by the French, and NBC is one of many many broadcasters present there who add a bit of their own flavour to that coverage and use it
I meant "produced" in the sense that they contract for the feed then do with it what they will -- add commentary, decide when to cut to commercials, whatever -- the stuff I talked about in the post. The "producer" of a movie does not operate the camera. You sound like a grammar-Nazi kind of person.
No, you didnt, it is clear from your completely incorrect article that you thought they had actual production input, either that or you know next to nothing about the subject matter you discuss, it could well be either.
As to his idea that they have 'deleted their archive', that is somewhat laughable - removing it from public access is very very different from deleting it, something I can assure him has not happened.
Duh.
Again, that was your clear implication in your 'article', you obviously dont have a clue, I wonder why you consider yourself knowledgeable enough to even create such articles?
The internet streaming is a very very small part of the whole process
Let's revisit that statement in 2020.
At which point it will still be a small part of the PROCESS, idiot. internet streaming involves a fast internet connection, a bunch of stream cache servers, and an encoder. For the Tdf and Olympics there is also a very small bit of non-live post production especially for the streams. It will remain a small part of the process, you seem to have confused the process with the viewing method..
Does he really think the NBS was responsible the Olympics venue planning and operation?
I'll give you that one -- I misspoke.
To say the least.
And then you turned around here and made yourself look like a complete ass, which is unfortunate.
Yes, and unfortunately Larry Press does not seem to understand much about how this is done.
NBC does NOT produce the TdF coverage, it is producted by the French, and NBC is one of many many broadcasters present there who add a bit of their own flavour to that coverage and use it. NBC has a couple of roving reporters doing non-live content, and one or two live cameras at the finish on a good day.
The olympics is the same, the event is primarily producted by a host broadcaster, and the public broadcasters take that production, add their own flavour, and broadcast that.
As to his idea that they have 'deleted their archive', that is somewhat laughable - removing it from public access is very very different from deleting it, something I can assure him has not happened. They are not required ot provide endless public access to such things.
He seems to think he understands much more about television and large event production than he really does.
The internet streaming is a very very small part of the whole process, although of course an increasingly important small part.
I find it especially laughable when he claims "NBC did their best to control leaks of Olympic material. For example, WiFi hotspots were not allowed in the stands and they did their best to stop social media leaks. " Does he really think the NBS was responsible the Olympics venue planning and operation?
Actually, the tragedy of the commons has long ago been pretty solidly debunked as being a political story rather than historical fact, as the problems that occurred have been solidly attributed to external forces rather than damage caused by overuse driven by greed or lack of caring.
The biggest issue with people who believe in such occurrences is they fail to allow for the fact that people skilled in a certain area (perhaps farming for example) tend to actually care about its long term viability - the same can be said for just about everything - nuclear power companies dont actually want accidents, oil companies dont want to run out of oil, bankers dont want financial collapses.
Now, that doesnt mean bad things dont happen, it just means it is usually against the will of the major participants, rather than because of...
Of course that is tangental to your actual point about private ownership being a good thing, but hey.
I would also claim that the parent post to your has never got their hands dirty in anything even distantly related to farming, if they think desert returns to anything close to productive in a year of non-use. it is pretty damn obvious from simple rainfall figures that those lands cannot be productive, and the reasons for those changes is also well known, and have little to do with over-farming (and lots to do with geography..)
I suggest you put you knee back in its jerk, and consider for a moment how you would feel if they were to offer a grant that was only available to men..
Reverse discrimination is no better than discrimination.
Now, do you realise how many other countries airspace YOUR carriers fly over? How many of their laws are not forced upon your carriers? Would you like them enforced?
There are international agreements and standards for these things, DHS just doesnt believe they have to comply with anyones agreements (including it seems their own countries in many cases..)
And even more to the point, assuming the 'perceived risk' is someone taking control of the aircraft to crash it, how would this safer if they took control outside US airspace, then flew in? aircraft can change course you know..
Its all just the most disgusting form of empire building and powerplays by DHS, as they have proved again and again, I hope you are enjoying losing your freedoms slice at a time.
There are so many other actually useful things that could be focused on, but instead we just have endless security theatre, empire building, and red tape to punish those who do follow the rules. IT seems so far more crime has been created by DHS (all the stolen luggage, privacy violations, personal violations, etc) than stopped.
"really valuable tools that could produce a new generation of programmers such as App Inventor"
Ah, Really?
Could someone please point me at the important differences in App Inventor that makes it special and at all innovative? Something a "new generation of programmers" are going to take hold of and will somehow make them better, stronger, faster (queue super slow motion running..) programmers?
Sounds like someone is missing their favourit pointy-clicky "programming" but really is there something here of importance?
There are plenty of accessible, entry level "introduction to programs" type systems around...
I would certainly say Raspberry Pi will do more for REAL programming for than App Inventor ever could, as it gives people a very real system, at a "toy" price.. That is a game changer (of course there are other similar projects, but this one looks like it will be ACCESSIBLE, which makes a big difference).
App Inventor is not BAD of course, but certainly not a critical path to anywhere.
You do realise how much water goes through lead pipes, and copper pipes welded with lead, and over lead flashed roofs before collection, etc, etc right?
Lead is not bad, SOME lead COMPOUNDS, mainly used in paints, that can be biologically absorbed, are.
And as to the moron claiming a 'level playing field', what a load of BS, this is nothing like that - are we going to test all with world paperclips? rulers? etc? if it is dangerous for a kid in this kit, is it not dangerous for them to even exist? kids get hold of paperclips from a lot of sources you know.. Then again, a choking hazard is probably 1000* more likely than anything else.
And what about dirt? grass? hell, some of that has cat $h1t on it, or has been sprayed with god knows what, and we let our kids PLAY on it! better lock them up inside while we are at it! Do you know that DIRT even sometimes blows around and can be ingested? oh my god!
That is why its all BS. you cannot legislate 'safety' in these ways, just like you cannot legistale common sense.
FFS, Kiribalti is SINKING, has been for a long time!
They are playing a somewhat cunning game of finger pointing, however their own land use and coral damage is what causes this, as the coral naturally recedes, this is well understood, and known for a very long time. They just hope someone else will come along with a ton of money, and little knowledge of history.
The sad thing is they will probably succeed, as peoples ability to identify BS seems to have flown away a long time ago, and headlines now seem to define reality.
Do people really not realise that just about all cheap HDMI active splitters strip HDCP?
put the player on the input port. put a valid DHCP device on output port 1 (perhaps a standard monitor) put ANY OTHER device on output port 2, it wont see hdcp....
No master key needed, about a $75 investment..
Its been like that years, do people really not know this?.
They dont, any competent and not class limited suspension design dynamically adjusts camers in corners to develop the desired cornering camber, while not causing issues in strange line.
A lot of moronic 'boy racers' like to think a ton of negative camber is the sign of a race car, mainly because some suspensions designs develop a lot of un-adjustable negative camber when cars are over-lowerd.. This of course is terrible for handling (but they like to think it is not.) but since those cars cannot have it adjusted out with spending real money....
And F1 most certainly does NOT run static negative camber, it would be a disaster for straight-line handling. They run DYANMIC camber in corners due to the uneven A arm suspension geometries.
I suspect this is pure stupidity along the lines of the contact area, hence friction would be lower.
Of course just using a narrower tire does the same thing, but since everyone wants to see nice wide tires under their cars....
On a poorly designed suspension setup you could get more grip in corners thana narrower tire like this, but that is in effect a design fault.
And ihave a strong doubt there is anything they can do to mitigate the wear problems except make tires with thicker tread on one side, which is double stupid - wear will still be higher. I suspect the additional costs would be higher for the tires than any saving.
The fact is, if you care, just run narrower and harder tires.. Thus giving lower friction and more economy, duh!

Apple doesnt have retina displays.
Samsung, LG, and Sharp do.
Apple packages/resells retina displays, developed by others.
These are already available in cheap Chinese tablets, in the new android tablet, Linus has a good point.
No, you complete moron (why not keep the tone going?)

It's interesting that this keeps being brought up. It keeps being brought up because it's the only counter example the far right has.
I wonder if you realise that the whole rest of the world sees your whole country as the far right?
Asia the meat and America the tech.
I can only assume you accidentally got those two the wrong way around?
