42,000 properties, each with an unknown number of locks each, and they all need a firmware upgrade.
What have Assa Abloy done to get this firmware upgraded? Are they going to send technicians to every site to do the update for free? Or will they send out a carefully worded email that makes it sound like it's no big deal but if you are concerned you can pay for an upgrade?
Something is very wrong here. Somehow these few apps and JPEG files account for 2GB of data. And Even after removing them, the base install is 10GB.
I can't help but feeling that they removed some rather important stuff like the registry editor, and left in all the Windows Store shovelware that no-one wants.
When will Microsoft learn that no-one wants the shit edition of Windows? They will either buy or pirate the proper version, just like with Windows 8 RT.
The problem with flat designs is that it is much less fault tolerant. A crappy traditional UI is still workable because everything is very clearly marked. With flat designs it's easy to create something that confuses the user. The Material design guidelines go a long way to preventing that, but they are by no means foolproof.
The new Gmail seems okay though. It's obvious what is a button and what isn't. If the lack of contrast is too much for you try the light grey theme.
It's not available to me yet. Doing some checking it seems that they are actually doing a gradual roll-out, so you might have to wait a while for it to become available.
The same is true of updates for Android apps. You read about some great new feature but it takes two weeks to get to your phone. I understand why they do it, hell I do it, but I'd love an "I'm feeling lucky" override option.
They probably think that the AI is less likely to leak information on moral grounds, or be turned into a double agent.
Or maybe it's a response to them having too much data to sift through, thanks to the NSA feeding them "full take" dumps and the like. That's the goal remember, listen to and watch everything everywhere all the time. No source too small or insignificant, just filter it all into the great database and let the AI run wild making connections.
Samsung claim this supports OPAL v2 / eDrive encryption, but when I checked their last generation M.2 drives it was actually promised in a coming firmware update. I wonder if they have it actually working on release for these ones, because you can't really enable it later without wiping the drive.
More worrying for oil companies is the trajectory that this demonstrates we are on. Electric busses are much cheaper over their lifetime due to lower fuel and maintenance costs, and it's only a matter of time before most combustion engine vehicles are like that.
Wouldn't it have made more sense to say "animation", given that is the important bit of information that you otherwise have to infer from it being a GIF?
To be clear, I'm not saying it's the best choice of words, or even a good choice... If that was even the word used. Merely that the tendency to take everything by a strict dictionary definition and avoid discussing the actual issue is just dragging the debate down into semantics and trivialities.
It's the Daily Mail. An odd mix of puritanism and taking every opportunity to show women's bodies, even if they are 12 years old. The sidebar of shame is legendary.
The statement was not meant to imply that every aspect of a culture should be cherished without question, merely that the good aspects if it should not be dismissed because they are different to our own.
You can argue over the semantics but orlanz is still right about this. It's a shame the councillor didn't explain it.
This sounds like it could be a typography holy war, similar in scale to Emacs vs. vi or tabs vs. spaces. Actually, what do typography nerds think of tabs vs. spaces?
They might need to have people working in the EU though, because the EU is very likely to regulate some AI use to protect its citizens. Stuff like AIs making decisions about people's lives, such as mortgage and job applications, is already under scrutiny.
That could also be a problem for the UK post-Brexit, because without regulatory alignment with the EU it will face the same problem as the US.
Capitalism thinks dumping toxic waste in the river is a good idea. Capitalism thinks working people to death, discarding their corpse and replacing them with another commodity labourer is a good idea
That's why every capitalist country has rules to protect people from capitalism. Why should we protect the environment, and employees, and animals, and property from harm but when it comes to women and the disable just leave them to suffer at the invisible hand of the market?
The ideal team size for women seems to be two. Wherever there are three women, two of them often gang up on and eventually backstab the third.
Wow. I've seem some misogynist trolling on Slashdot, but it's far worse when you try to come over all reasonable and matter of fact about it.
People keep telling me we are all equal now and we don't need feminism any more, but then comments like this get modded as "insightful". Lewis' Law still stands.
This article is about Samantha Brick, so it's more likely that it was just her personality that ruined it. She wrote an article titled "There are Downsides to Looking This Pretty': Why Women Hate Me for Being Beautiful" so you shouldn't be surprised that she was clueless.
The fact that the story is in the Daily Mail should ring alarm bells too. Sure enough, they failed to mention any of this and decided to depict the whole thing as "bitches, right?"
In the UK there is a newsreader called Moira Stuart. When she was eventually let go by the BBC there was a bit of a controversy because it was thought to be due to her age, and a lot of people liked her. She does have a very clear but warm style.
Anyway, she was later re-hired for BBC Radio 2. Not sure how that fits in to your SJW-driven model...
They don't care about workplace sexual harassment or the wage gap in China. This is driven purely by old fashioned ideas about women. You know the sort of thing - meek, emotional, distracting, take a week off every month to menstruate, will probably get pregnant and drop out completely etc.
I know some Chinese women are turning to doing contract work over the internet, software development and that kind of thing, using fake male names. When it's time to get paid they just say "sent it to my wife" and give their real WePay account.
Given that it's Human Rights Watch and they have a long history (40 years) of reporting on what goes on in China, I doubt this came as much of a surprise to them. Women's rights have long been a concern to them, especially during the one child policy era.
I guess you missed the calm, considered and insightful debate around shows like The Simpsons (particularly Apu), Friends and Saved by the Bell. Or the thoughtful re-examining of old movies like the 60s/70s James Bond stuff.
This appears to be yet more fake outrage. Unfortunately posting outrage videos about fake outrage on YouTube is quite popular, but if you ignore those there are some quite thoughtful pieces on this subject.
That's probably why most banks create a username and password for you and don't let you change them. Then you get to set an additional password of your choosing some kind on top.
It's the kind of half baked but kinda-works solution banks seem to think is fine, but at least they avoid the obvious pitfalls and "Login with Facebook".

On the 17th refresh of the page it showed up for me.

Sorry, I didn't meant to imply you were lying. Memory is sometimes unreliable, but I'm sure your recollection of this incident is perfect.
Anyway, with that cleared up, do you actually disagree with the point being made here?
Microsoft spent more on lawyers.

Anyone confirm?

Let capitalism determine if it's a good idea.
When has that ever been a good idea?
