Even I'm bothered by how this advertisement made it to the front page.
The 5D series is notable because the Mk II revolutionized video production. Everyone from teenagers to AAA Hollywood production units were using them. They weren't a replacement for cameras costing tens of thousands more, but they were close enough for most shots.
No, I'm asking how is cutting off a path of a file (as an example of the kind of shortened output Powershell commands can produce) informative? And yes, I know it's fairly easy to overcome, but it just strikes me that this is the kind of GUI-centric thinking (this kind of output is straight out of a Listview object) that infects Powershell.
If it is fairly easy to overcome, write a quick function to overcome it. Don't people write shell functions for this very same reason in Unixland?
And objects, big fucking deal. I've been using Bourne variants for a quarter of a century and never thought "Boy, I wish I had classes".
You never wished for an object-oriented shell because you are already proficient in Unix shells, and it is clear you have only ever tried to make PS fit the Unix paradigm.
What I particularly dislike is how it automatically filters output, and you have to use arguments or other applets to give you fuller output.
Only the view in the console window is filtered by default. If you send the pipeline to a csv or xml, you'll get everything. It filters the console view because there is far more and more complex data being send along. It is not Unix, the pipeline is not compose of flat lines of text.
Some dipshit is going to come here and tell you that "their" is only used in the plural. (They're going to be wrong.)
Of course it is used. It is a handy shortcut in conversation but reeks of weakness in anything more formal than a text message. Either pick the gender of your antecedent or make your antecedent plural.

You missed the point of DRM. The stream of bits coming out of the iPhone can be encrypted and must be decrypted before the DAC can take place. The decryption keys will only exist in approved devices (speakers or headphones).
This is too expensive of a solution and too easy to circumvent, like most DRM. There is a wire with an analog signal going to a speaker. Cut that wire and route it back into your recording device.
The genie is long out of the bottle on music DRM and the record companies will never get their CD profits back.
Whatever. A content provider who also provides access or playback equipment is pure evil. The equation works every time.
I see all this hate for FaceBook and or Google around here. What other ways are people in these parts of the world likely to get online? How are your own efforts working out, for that matter?
Ctrl-F'd for 'mesh' and on both TFA and found nothing. Does anyone know if the software will be there to make these turn key mesh networks?
I have ~40 acres 0.15 sq km and would like to get wifi to a few parts. A few of these on solar panels would be perfect.
If you're just trying to get wifi to a few parts, aren't you better off with a hub and spoke network? Mesh networking seems pretty inefficient to do spot coverage over 40 acres. Mesh networking is, from my understanding, best suited to dense usage.
Go to Programs and Features (what used to be called "Add/Remove Programs") and uninstall what you don't want. Windows 10 does not make removing third party software any different.
It just goes to show, depending on who builds it, something may be an enlightened amateur rocket or a dangerous enemy weapon.
That's ridiculous. For one thing, this is an amateur rocket because they were not paid to build it. Even more importantly, where the device is aimed and what it is supposed to do when it gets there, is what determines if it is a weapon or not.
Whatever the fuck that means.
What, are people trying to make games in PowerPoint now?
Choose-Your-Own-Presentation. While most people prefer the Edward Packard slide decks, R. A. Montgomery does have a substantial following in the board room circuit.
How long until one fails and takes out an athlete or audience member?
Taken out by a helium balloon? I'm guessing a very long time. If one develops a leak it will slowly start sinking. The station that it's tethered to is probably designed to reel it in if that happens and it'll end up where it started from.
A good crowd can make a good movie great as they react to the film (laughter, cheers, etc).
A comedy must be seen with an audience to be fully appreciated. But, this being Slashdot, everyone probably immediately thought of how he best enjoys sci fi or fantasy: pausing every couple minutes to fact check the accuracy of the previous scene on Wikipedia.

A better headline is that the UK Government authorized the companies to sell to authoritarian regimes.

You'd be much better off having a slow, steady acceleration all the way there and a slow, steady acceleration all the way back.
There is no "back" and there is no slowing down or orbiting. It's a flyby approach and the only thing that returns are communications.
As the innovative, entrepreneurial founders will soon leave in the face of crushing politics and bureaucracy
That is what happens to most startups after acquisition. The ping pong table, beer in the fridge, and T-Shirts all have to go.
Fart in a bag.
I'm not proud of this comment, but there it is.

FTFY.
It's easy to run fiber up and down the streets. It's a real bitch to run fiber from the street into the house.
That's covered under your installation fees when you subscribe. That is not the last mile, that's the last 50 feet.
This is too expensive of a solution
It's "this thing dies if it so much as looks at water."
Well if you're going to try to take care of that problem one thing you might go for right away is getting rid of that crazy big hole
That's not a difficult entry point to seal off. The speaker and mic are, I believe, much more difficult.

Derp. My bad.
China today is like the U.S. in the 40s to 70s. And I mean that in a good way.
They wear fedoras with bell bottoms?
I'm paying $99/mo for my 6Mbps, with 300 GB transfer, from Digital Path. DSL and Cable are both on the next road over, but not mine.
Telcos and Cable Companies should be forced to expand service to all paved roads if they're going to get a monopoly. That'll show 'em.
You really need to make friends with someone on the next road over and set up a few parabolic antennas.
there isn't a thing i would change on it
It's so perfect you wouldn't opt for more battery life or storage?

What you should have asked was whether we want more Windows 10 stories.
Based on the comment count for said stories, the answer is an emphatic "yes."

I do not think he means to contain piracy, but more to maintain profits in the face of piracy.
