that uses features in the chipset is windows only, so should anyone be surprised that hardware or software these hybrid solutions are geared to the everyday PC user?
1) it connects to the internal netowrk already in the car for fancy things like steering wheel controls and even if its not noise will still go out the power lines
2) everything in your car goes though EMC testing, part of that is exposing the electronics to various radio frequency's, for example the company I work for is developing a recent light product, nothing major, just a harmless little internal LED light, we accidentally made a antenna with one of the traces on the PCB and throughout the applied radio spectrum (including cell phone frequencies) would cause the LED to come on at random, or sputter and we had to go back and fix that cause no one wants their dome light strobing them in the middle of the night cause they got a twitter update.
So, plop in a run of the mill desktop hard drive that is not certified and tested, you may not have a single problem, it may make your dashboard lights cut out, it may lock your brakes at 65mph, you dont know without testing. Ford or any other company is not going to produce tens of thousands of a model without knowing, and development along with testing cost a freaking fortune while taking a pretty long time.
Then you have the whole money side of things like return on R&D and cost per unit and how much can we sell this stuff for yadda yadda yadda and bam its 4 years later, the best bang for the buck over the next X years is 10 gigs that most people wont fill up with their MP3's anyway
there is no real reason when setting up a new database
oh oricle (what do they know about databases) has mysql now, but a bunch of people who were not valuable enough to keep made a whole new database that has exactly jack shit track record
thats fine for bobsdog.com, but I got shit to do and am too cheep to pay for MS
is this the same government thats using reel to reel tape on 16 bit IBM mainframes running COBOL?
Tennessee is still advertising for AS/400 operators, California is still hiring cobol programmers, you fucks cant swap out the punch cards fast enough to store it all
teenager who looks about one step away from retarded is so fucking stupid to announce to the entire world that "boston bominb wait till u see the shitI do" and people question it, after nearly 3 weeks of "why the fuck wasn't the Boston bombers integrated after flying to Russia OMG!"
kid is a stupid fucking poser with no future, who might actually do something dangerous cause he really has nothing else
squint, search for file, squint, see what ext it was, squint right click, squint choose open with, squint, read list of 50 fucking players including real, squint, choose VLC, squint play.. and the damn thing still didn't run
double clicking the fucker started up wmp and it played fine
dont have time for stupid old fucks
and this is our senior software engineer, makes a mountain out of every molehill, cause thats how he was trained in the 70's when computers were just on the edge of reliable
5 grand for a wobbly frame that prints out a rough toy figure in mere hours that requires carving for cleanup
we use professional printing services for work, if we want to take them out for show that 3 grand MODEL gets filled and sanded cause even its not of any acceptable quality if you want to present it to the ignorant public, and jesus, dont even think about stressing it in the slightest, even though it wont fit cause its fractions of a degree wrapped
even the best stuff if fairly fragile to a machined part, so really what good is it at this point to mass produce 99$ 3d printers to make a do-dad, when the do-dad can be fractured by minimal mechanical stress?
"prototype would be a handgun consisting of 12 parts made out of ABS+ thermoplastic, which is known for its durability and is commonly used in industrial settings."
yea but its not thin slivers of plastic that happened to surface bond to a cooling surface, yea it seems strong to your hand, but not to any mechanical force, its actually quite brittle
its though hostmonster, they claim right this second 4.95 a month, but to get that price you gotta pay forward for 2 years, I have been with them since ~2006, but yea "unlimited" bandwidth "unlimited" space awesome speed... for 2006, but still decent now, not had too much of an issue and you can get ssh access for doing routine things (not running programs)
but I am sure there are others out there who are running the same thing, the ONE time I had a 400GB run in a month more than makes up the years of trickle in data
well I have been MR NVIDIA since the rivaTNT2, and my machines currently run a AMD6870 and a AMD7950, they offered more bang for the buck and I am very happy with their respective performances.
Drivers? I have had no issues with windows, linux? dont care, dont use it anymore, besides whats linux going to use it for? semi transparent widgets? freeciv and frozen bubble dont even tax a 10 year old intel card.
I dont have anything worthy of having to mass source it, and my 3$ a month "unlimited bandwidth" website has taken 400 gigs in a month downloads before without a sweat.
About the only thing I could think of is a linux distro, but again the only thing I am bound to cobble together is a lightweight debian mix for maintance / repair / recovery when someone brings me their computer to be fixed and winders is all trashed.
I have torn apart many of these things, and there is not much difference between the 11$ bulb with chi-co printed on the package, and the 22$ bulb with GE printed on the package as they are often only separated in the packaging stage of the same factory.
it was already 11 bucks just to take out of the package and break to see whats in it, hate to see what the good ones cost for the exact same crap, ohh they use a cap's esr instead of a resistor.
I have yet to see a quality one, and I have worked in lighting for about a decade now
I got to play with some on the market now ceramic heatsinks that went though a reflow oven (~260c) and was able to be handled no problem the second it comes out (something you usually want to wear gloves for)
the main problem with household LED lighting is they are made as stupid cheap as possible. I popped one apart and it was an LED, slug of god knows what metal and a big ass power resistor, nothing else
so you are using the diode part to block the negative ac waveform, already your LED is on only "50%" of the time, so directly out of the box its flickering at 30Hz, mess with that with a dimmer and it gets worse.

you are obsessing, and yes internal quality counts a lot, cause if its sloppy internally, its sloppy externally as it sets the attitude
I can play games optimized for 2005 era XBOX360 hardware in 4K, when at 1280x1024 I can already see the 128x128 textures clear as day?
whats my motivation here?

its 2013 we have to have fucking starbucks provided to the government or else the fembots get offended
That's the problem with a 30 year stagnate space program that cant even muster enough excitement to justify its existence anymore
I found it funny, when I was a teenager, now, no
there is a reason this guy is not making it, teenagers have no money
200$ for a tablet that will not potentially suck with a windows CE OS and a Pentium era CPU, ...with a keyboard ?

maybe sold, if it replaces my 10 inch fujitsu lifebook running w2k and office 2000

most AC dimmers already pwm so its not that big of a deal for many
