I can see it being the cables. Having lived in one of the colder parts of southern Canada all my life, I can tell you that the extension cord you use matters. It's not as big of an issue now as it used to be, but I remember plenty of times thinking I've plugged my car in only to come out in the morning and realize it wasn't when I tried to start it. In these cases, I believe the issue was that the cord, and specifically the plastic around the female end contracted making it every difficult to force the male end in. Sure, once current was flowing there would be some heat generated, though I'm not sure it would be enough to help.
We've had nothing but great support from McAfee. I don't always agree with them, but I've found the people I've worked with to readily understand the problems we've had and readily offer solutions.
To be fair, we never used a client side email scanner. We (at the time) did it server side on Lotus Notes and didn't have any performance issues. Virus Scan would scan any attachments on the client side when opened, but that wasn't an issue either.
We've migrated to Google for email now, and rely on them for server side email scanning, but again, there is the desktop side to deal with attachments.
McAfee may not be what I'd recommend for home use, but I would for enterprise. Their suite of tools and being able to pull together a very accurate and real time picture of a huge environment makes it very worthwhile. That, and a properly configured agent and virus scan shouldn't interfere too much outside of doing a regular full scan, and even then, the computer should still be usable, if a bit slower.
If someone is unable to travel in some form (walk, scooter, wheelchair, etc) a few houses down, then its very likely you have some form of assistance to help with other daily tasks. This will just be another task for those assistants to do a few times a week (at most).
All new neighbourhoods in the last probably 10 years (or more) have had these community mailboxes. This will just be phasing it in to older neighbourhoods. I've been living with them for about 6 or 7 years now and really have no complaints about them.
Are the only damages (or potential damages) the $0.05 in electricity? What if that particular circuit was being used for other things, like running a pump to deal with some flooding, and plugging in the car was enough to blow the braker?
If the person has a living will, you follow that. If the person does not, and there is a living relative with PoA, that person can make the decision. If there's no will and no person with PoA, then you provide medical care as we do today.
I'm for assisted suicide, but I'd like to think if I didn't like the idea for myself or my family, I wouldn't try to prevent you from doing it. Blocking other people from having this option is, indirectly, putting people in these 'torturous' positions.
I can't see how it won't. You'll grind for rep and some sort of currency (valor points or what have you) to get better gear to get into end game raids, to farm gear.
It's lost it's appeal for me and I really doubt I'll be back.
I picked up a Pebble and it does most of what I was hoping it will do, and potentially will do it all with some firmware (or other) updates.
First, I'm on call a lot, generally via email. So having a watch on my wrist vibrate a little as opposed to a phone in my pocket buzz or make a sound is more convenient, and easier to notice (most of the time). It's nice that I can be in a meeting, at a movie, at the doctor's office, have my phone on silent or vibrate, and not worry about it bother other people. Since my response time for on call is usually an hour, a quick glance at my watch is all that is required at the moment the email comes in, at which point I can wrap up the business at hand, or if it's ongoing, I can excuse myself when it's appropriate.
The only thing I wish, was that there was an option to continue vibrating (in some pattern) until I acknowledge the alert. This way, when I'm on call overnight, I can be notified of an email without the sound having to wake my as well as me.
Next, I run. The watch lets me interface with Runkeeper by giving me my current pace, distance and time with a quick glance at my watch, it also lets me control the music on my phone if I happen to be listening to music while running. If I have Runkeeper reading out my pace and other info occasionally, I find it distracting, and I'd rather know those things when I want to, rather that any specific interval. Using my watch is much better than trying to do those things on my phone while running, especially since for security purposes, I need to have my phone lock when not being used.
We have some new laws regarding personal communication devices and driving. Now, I don't text or play with my phone while driving, but having the text show up on my watch can, at a glance, let me know if it's something I want to deal with relatively soon, or if it's something that can wait until it's convenient. I won't get a ticket for glancing at my watch, but I could for trying to view the same message on my phone.
So, yes, I find my watch useful for my set of circumstances.
Because the Troll is missing the entire point of the story.
If Intel, Nvidia and AMD start releasing they're top tier drivers for Linux, it makes Linux as a desktop more viable for more people. That's what Torvalds is saying.
Not everyone is going to go and replace their Windows desktop with a Linux right away, but when it's time to buy their next PC, and they can get one for $100 cheaper (same specs) that will play their games, run their office suite, etc. That's where Linux can take a bigger bite out of the home desktop market.
Install the games ahead of time. When we organized LAN parties, we'd put together a list of games we'd be playing, and what patch level was to be expected. We usually had an internet line there we'd share out, but it was rarely a fast line, and nobody expected to be able to download a full game to play. It just requires some preparation ahead of time.
Sure, but there are plenty of professional athletes that compete without the help of drugs. Shouldn't they have more respect that the ones who cheat (and by cheat I mean breaking the rules that are in place).
Yes, maybe we don't want to "pollute the gene pool", but what's wrong with coming up with effective treatments and at least allowing people with genetic disorders a chance at a normal life.
I suspect you don't have anyone in your life with a condition on this kind of scale.
I don't expect providers to hope that I'll stay with them long enough to pay for a subsidized device. Instead, offer me a discount for staying with you after I've paid for the device, or if I bring my own. Otherwise, why not just get a new device every 2-3 years.
hawaii gets all the air blowing across the pacific, so it can be considered a better baseline than doing it in a city where local emissions may influence. I don't see how the size of the cone or islands makes any difference. it's just a weather station on top of the mountain. And no, all the other islands were formed by their own volcanoes so stfu or are you a plate tectonic denier as well?
mbeckman never said that Mauna Loa formed any of the other islands. He/she said "amounts to about 85 percent of all the other Hawaiian Islands combined". There's a big difference.
Here, the mother gets 17 weeks, and there are an additional 35 weeks that can be split up however the parents decide. There are some requirements (you have to be eligible for Employment Insurance - worked a minimum number of hours, your income must be significantly reduced, etc.).
A lot of this comes down to form. Run well, with proper gait and you're very unlikely to injure yourself running. Run with poor form, constant heal striking, and yes, you're going to put a lot of extra stress on your body that is unnecessary and actually takes MORE energy than running properly. Like any exercise, learn to do it properly before worrying about "how much" of it you do.

Completely opposite to our experience.

I've lived in a couple neighbourhoods with these in them. I've never seen the box be more than a block away.

No but you don't issue him a warning either... simply because there are much more potentially serious consequences to the action.

There really aren't.

If the person does not, and there is a living relative with PoA, that person can make the decision.
If there's no will and no person with PoA, then you provide medical care as we do today.
I can see his point of view.

Sure, but there are plenty of professional athletes that compete without the help of drugs. Shouldn't they have more respect that the ones who cheat (and by cheat I mean breaking the rules that are in place).
As opposed to... just about every profession out there?
Sure some, are less obvious, but don't we reward singers, writers, artists, etc. based on their talent (along with other factors as well).
Yes, it's terrible to think that professional sports players should actually be rewarded for training and talent rather than drugs.
That's a really cold way to view things.
Yes, maybe we don't want to "pollute the gene pool", but what's wrong with coming up with effective treatments and at least allowing people with genetic disorders a chance at a normal life.
