"Super Wi-Fi signals generally won't be as fast as regular Wi-Fi signals"
Is this slashdot, the slashdot, the technology site, do explain how regular Wi-Fi and Super Wi-Fi signals travel at different speeds through the same medium.
Because one has a higher bps than the other? Are you moaning about an ad or something?
no it is really the opposite. Tends to really poke fun at those that did laugh at nerds while also letting the nerds laugh at themselves. I can take it or leave it, not the best but not the worst crap ever made.
Maybe it started like that but now it's just another sitcom since they paired them all off and it all became about relationships.
I've written a script based on a true story of a faggot going on a rampage on drilling other mans anus. It's a good script but nobody wants to buy it. Damn political correctness!
The biggest impact I noticed (other than general decline in quality) is the mid-season break. Apparently it's too much to expect tv show writers to write a full thing in one go these days.
Since the last writers strike TV has really gone down the pan, constant remakes of old shows, very little imagination in new ones and an excess of cop shows. Fuck them, ultimately it's the writers fault TV isn't really worth watching anymore and that has a knock on all the way down the line.
The only FAIL here is YOU. The Trumps only know how to WIN, as evidenced by the election last year. Keep being butthurt, though, libtard. Thank God my taxes won't have to cover your doctor bills for much longer.
Good luck in a few years when your country is a shadow of a its former self, a laughing stock world wide with its infrastructure in shambles and the Trump clan walking out the doors laughing their asses off.
If my laptop will even finish its current update. For the last while now I turn it on and it starts spinning saying configuring updates 100% complete seemingly indefinitely, it doesn't get to 100% it starts there. (I left it for nearly an hour once and it was still 100% complete) so I kill the power, it turns on again says configuration failed and I'm good to go. The laptop is pretty fucked though and its battery doesn't work. I only use it for videos or streaming xbox otherwise I might look into sorting it out.
took a slot away from a qualified foreign worker. My guess is someone in India willing to fork over money to these guys stole a job from some college grad in India.
So now they're stealing American jobs from Indians in India? Mother fuckers!
No there's not in itself but the patent system is so fucked that you can load at least 11 patents on a golf ball instead of one patent saying this is how we make the balls out of these materials (which may or may not be patented separate). You can't really put in a patent for gluing layers together unless it's a highly specialised or propriety glue or something and then it should be the glue patented like you say. If you look at costcos retort a lot of them are relating to the hardness of each layer related to the others which is fair enough in itself but not spread over at least 11 patents for a small dimpled ball designed to be whacked with a metal stick without exploding and going in a generally straight line.
OK then, so they have a patent on each specific part of a golf ball, all layers patented separately, separate patent for the dimples, another one defining the size and shape of said dimples etc etc. I know the answer and the answer is because the US patent system is an absolute clusterfuck and just gathering and holding onto them so you can sue anyone who does anything remotely similar to shut down competition while crying free market. That's how you get at least 11 patents on a golf ball (are there more they aren't claiming are being infringed? Probably not but maybe).
Actually, it can be a crime. There's a whole concept of Dumping. It usually applies in the case of international trade, but can apply domestically as well. Generally it's used to drive competition out of business when they can't sustain the lower price.
Sounds like they could, but couldn't sell, then Costco stole and sold on massive scale while providing inventors with nothing. Did I miss anything here?
The inventors of what? The golf ball? Did Acushnet invent it? Seriously though, how can a golf ball have 11 patents on it?
So your best defense of NASA's budget is that we also waste money on other things that are even stupider?
Depends if you think it needs defending. Think of what you get for your money from NASA compared to the F-35. You want to talk about wasting money? How about a billion dollars for 62 miles of wall/fence. http://edition.cnn.com/2017/03...
If that was their only problem, they could have recovered more easily. But they also had:
- $100 higher price to cover the cost of Kinect -- a device few wanted
- the TV stuff and the Snap interface so you could split-screen TV and gaming -- providing a poor TV-watching experience and a poor gaming experience simultaneously
- a giant box that looked like a VCR with a big external power brick
- somewhat worse performance than the PS4 because of the speed of the RAM interface
It's difficult to dig yourself out of a hole that deep.
-Kinect was a piece of fluff that wasn't dropped quickly enough.
-Even less people used that than kinect so is kinda moot. You can only pay proper attention to one thing at a time anyway.
-As opposed to a giant box with a slant so it looks 'funky'
-Performance worse in some aspects and better in others, guess that depends who's PR is louder.
The hole wasn't that deep, they seem to be doing ok these days.

Make the main guy a minority and you're set.
If writers can't make $60,000 a year- I sympathize with them.
pfft I don't.
So, if they don't strike, precisely how do they negotiate more money?
Hmmm, let me think, by making better fucking content and not being lazy cunts looking for something from the 80's that hasn't been rebooted yet.

As an outsider, WTF would you know about the infrastructure in the US?
Only what breaches the international news barrier, and mate, it don't look good.
Nice try but I'm not even American. I say that as an outsider looking in.
This guy is 1) A professor, and 2) in Boston - ergo, he's probably extremely liberal (how'd I know???)
3) a woman

You can be shit sure he ain't gunna fix it. It's already worse than when he started.

Wow! Most Windows only go up to 10, but yours goes up to eleven!
They're even letting you put windows in your windows!
Is windows still free?
Free as in fuck you I think

That's news to me, I guess its been longer than I though since I actually looked at PC prices. Sucks for PC players.
Actually, it can be a crime. There's a whole concept of Dumping. It usually applies in the case of international trade, but can apply domestically as well. Generally it's used to drive competition out of business when they can't sustain the lower price.
Dumping
He said being stupid isn't a crime.
Sounds like they could, but couldn't sell, then Costco stole and sold on massive scale while providing inventors with nothing. Did I miss anything here?
The inventors of what? The golf ball? Did Acushnet invent it? Seriously though, how can a golf ball have 11 patents on it?
The prices are considerably lower to compensate for the lack of first sale.
Not anymore, go check prices, they're the same as the console prices.
Yeah that's what I said. On console digi prices are inflated to match the physical prices. Or do you mean PC prices have risen to match console?

If you see it advertised on TV its more than likely AAA. If the game is concerned with being good more than looking good it's probably not.
If that was their only problem, they could have recovered more easily.
