I'm sticking with my 5s until they stop putting out a small screen phone that doesn't have all of the features of the larger ones. It's probably going to be a long wait.
I didn't saw sue them to fix it under warranty. The lawsuit would be for false advertising. In order to fix the bug and have a CPU the operates properly then their products no longer meet the specifications that were promised. This impacts everyone. Just because home users may not see, some will. But they bought computers based on the speed of the processor. Plus don't forget that Intel charges based on the speed that the processor is able to give businesses and users.
No, but this would be one of the few times I'd love to see a class action lawsuit. Intel has been selling us CPUs with a specified amount of processing speed and for all of these years because of this bug those CPUs will no longer be able to match those specs.
Rebates should be given out automatically based on the cost of the CPU on systems and an average slowdown for the market that they used the machine for (home use, corporate desktop, server, etc).. Large companies such as Apple, Dell, etc have records of who they sold computers to and it would be a quick first step to get money to people. Others who bought from smaller shops, couldn't be reached by the big companies, or bought parts would have to submit receipts.
Intel keeps doing this and keeps getting away with this. They will still do this unless there is a huge financial penalty for them. With this they could slow down a large proportion of the world's computers and have nothing happen to them.
China has stopped taking the West's "recycling" because it was too contaminated for them to use and it went to their garbage stream. It wasn't just one day China said that they weren't going to take the plastics. It's been a long time of them having to say that the stuff being sent over wasn't being prepared properly. If we in the West would separate it properly then China would gladly take it. But to make the programs work we have to tell people to throw it all into one box and then invent mechanical separators because there's a limit to the number of people you can have doing the job manually. (The cost has to be kept down so that's one limit but also not many people want to spend the picking through recycling.)
For me it's both. I hate theatres for most of the reasons you suggest. Then there is a lack of movies that I actually want to see. The studios keep putting out movies that are just the same thing. They keep making money with rebooting superhero stories and until they stop that's all we'll get.I'd love to have well-written movies with stories that make me think but I'm in the minority so those movies rarely get made. It's cheap laughs and special effects with just enough story to justify their use for the near future I'm afraid.

FTFY. True fans don't mention the crystal skull abomination.
Raising the USPS rates for Amazon will just cause Amazon to shift over to other carriers over time (as they build up the capacity) and the USPS won't have any money coming in from Amazon. Why would Amazon continue to use USPS if it has other ways to get packages to its customers at the existing lower rates? You won't see prices rise and the USPS will lose an important customer.
But then Trump doesn't really know much about business. This was shown because he wants the US to have a surplus trade balance with every country. He thinks if there's a deficit then somehow the other country is cheating the US.
People shoot the police in other countries too. But those officers don't have the habit of shooting first. The majority of police forces have a military mentality that goes right to their recruiting videos which show officers kicking doors in, shooting guns, and other such things. Plus the police are picking up surplus army equipment.
Policing in the US has to change and engage with the community again. Learn how to calm situations without using their guns. In fact stop pulling their guns out first would be a good start when they have been issued with non-lethal weapons. (I'm not talking about this case specifically but in others where you hear they have shot an unarmed person.) They need to learn from other police forces in the world and even the US army how to engage in dangerous situations because going in and shooting people is making the situation worse.
The only things I will buy from Amazon are those sold by Amazon itself or if it's sold by a third party seller then it has to be fulfilled by Amazon. That means that Amazon has the item in one of it's warehouses.
Overall I think the third party marketplace has been a failure for customers. It makes Amazon a lot of money for sure. But it's harder to find things now via a search or just drilling down through the categories. Sub-categories are filled with non-related items. I wrote Amazon complaining about how difficult it is to find items due to all of the misplaced items and they thought I wanted help choosing a category as a seller. I said I was looking for something and look at a specific category for example for all of the wrong items in it.
Then you have items with outrageous prices or shipping. I've seen items that are worth less than $20 with prices of over $1000 or S&H of a couple of hundred with a low price (which really messes up the price tracking sites like camelcamelcamel.com).
I've almost always purchased items that have come from Amazon warehouses and haven't had any problems. I do a fair amount of shopping with them. The one time I didn't follow that rule I had a problem and Amazon refunded my money without an issue.
Crap, that means I'm going to have to downgrade to iOS11 after all. There's nothing else there except stuff that take up cpu cycles for eye candy and the increasingly crappy Music app (if you just want to play music you have downloaded onto the device that is).
I thought that the US was afraid to have metric in general use* because the population feared it was one step closer to having universal health care thrust upon them.
* - The metric system is in use by the scientific community so it's unfair to say that it's not used there at all. Some people aren't afraid to step into the 1700's.
In your field the centimetre might be dead but it's not a dead unit in the SI system. It's used all of the time in Canada. It's a perfect unit because people can visualize what 1 cm is. It's harder to visualize 10 mm or 0.01 m. And for people that are used to inches it's the closest unit.
And if the centimetre is dead then the centilitre would be dead for the same reasoning. While not in use in Canada (we use the millilitre) the centilitre is sometimes used for small volumes in Europe. I recently bought some bottles to store home made vinegar and they were made in Italy. The sticker said the volume was 50 cl, not 500 ml. You can see it used on some cans of pop.
You do realize that all they are doing is looking at Stephen Hawking's plan to send small probes to Alpha Centauri using solar sails given a huge boost by lasers.
It is a stupid idea but for different reasons. A small electronic payload will go by the system at 0.10c. If we're lucky we'll get a picture that we can call Great {Whatever Colour} Dot. Of course that's assuming our imaging technology works at 0.10c. Then we have no way sending images back but maybe someone can turn the sail into an antenna with some light bracing. Maybe the aliens there could shine a laser at the sail and slow it down for us and we could get a proper picture of their star system.
The difference is that if you choose to use Wi-Fi instead of plugging in the device you don't lose anything. You use more energy to do the wireless transfer but you don't lose packets or data by choosing the wireless option.
By choosing to use wireless charging you lose energy compared to a wired connection. There's the energy lost as you get farther away from the transmitter due to the transmission spreading out, the interference with the atmosphere, and the conversion to and from electromagnetic radiation. It's all incredibly wasteful and only really "works" for items that need small amounts of energy at short distances. One would think that we have solved our energy production problems and we are awash in electricity that is too cheap to measure.
The transmission of data suffers from all of these same problems too. But because all that wanted is the transfer of information the actual power required to reach your device is small.
Nothing you do is going to get around the physics. Having them in lightbulbs is worse than in the monitor. If you are going to do it then have a separate device so that you can direct the beam(s) to where you want them and to be able to place the devices as close as possible. But you will never be able to beat plugging the device in.
Basically the efficiency sucks because you can't beat physics. If the power is sent out in all directions then if you double the distance from the device you have an 1/8 of the available power. You can do better by focussing the power in a beam but the beam will spread as it goes farther from the device. Then you have interactions with the atmosphere which will further reduce the efficiency.

It takes longer for all that glue to dry instead of letting us replace the components.
Those suits are recording their every move. once enough data is collected they'll be able to replace them with robots!

Only if you can prove that you bought the CPU direct from Intel and on a day whose name does not end in a 'y'.

Well, of course they do considering they are based in Sweden. They would follow the copyright law of Sweden.
