Seriously not flamebait, but bigots typically heavily vote Republican.
They are tired of this black muslim socialist and want a return to the days of Bush. So put amendments and put records like these will give pastors great sermons on who God approves to run their country come election day. It works as the religious right is THEE most powerful group in this country. Even more powerful than the NRA and those who want lower taxes.
No I am not saying you are a biggot if you are a Republican moderators. But I do say the religious folks are 85% are registered republicans thanks to Jerry Falwell and Reagan who tried to persued them to leave Carter and the democratic party behind.
It works it is time get ahead at any cost including taking away the rights of others. Racist governors did the same to Blacks too to bring supporters to the polls
In 2004 there was nothing wrong with written sites for IE 6.
I mean what else is there? It had 93% of the market and growing and it came with every pc.
Problem is during the great recession we let go of intranet teams and IT as cost centers since their IE 6 systems worked just fine so why pay the expense? Now no one knows how they work and are too ingrained to their business processes to upgrade as it will break their work flows
But I bet the system and paperwork was written in 2004.
You saw how much of a pain it was to upgrade? Think of 10 years ago when a default system came with IE 6? It just worked if you targeted for that. Nothing wrong as 90% of the world used it and it was assumed by now 100% of the web would be using IE forever since Netscape was gone. Seems foolish today but back then it was foolish to think differently.
There were no standards. Only IE unless you wanted to double development efforts for no reason?? So as with governments with red tape it takes an act of parliament to change the paperwork written from back then
I do. 90% of users aren't gamers or Warez freeloaders contrary to slashdot opinion. With large games peoplease only have time for a few and lots of small ones. With me an mMO. Now playing star wars the old republic all imperial:-)
But I do have a few hundred gigs of vms. One on a 1 tb mechanical disk. Rest in one of my 2 500 gif ssds raid 0s. 25 gig levels are much nicer on the lader:-)
Again nitch. I have not met anyone besides IT folks build their own dvr. I had one said I wasn't a real IT guy if I don't make my own cloud. Really? I open onedrive and drag files. How hard is that? No an external shared disk is not a cloud regardless of the hype from Western digitals marketing department.
She is part of the problem. Old, corrupt, polarizing, etc.
If I were a betting man I would think Ted Cruz will be our next president. The tea party is very energized and filled with so much anti Obama emotion that a right wing leader will be pushed. Clinton doesn't bring out her base like Cruz does. Romney lost because he wasn't conservative enough to his base
Problem with that is you need stupid people, special interests, and fringe nutcase to extreme of your party in the primaries. Rational smart folks need not apply.
You need to be either a radical socialist or extreme tea party who wants to abolish most of the government who make special rules for corporations and monopolies and very sharp TV commercials with a team of as trot urging posters to troll Facebook to fire up the low information voters with promises of no compromise.
I got modded down a few times here (unsurprisingly) when I mentioned who needs more than 1 TB besides some niche use. Everyone and their brother went on how creating a NAS from scratch and their database project at work was average Joe stuff and I didn't know what what I was talking about.
But most of that is on the cloud anyway. I got rid of my dvr and expensive cable for a Ruku3 streaming device and pay Amazon, Hulu, and Netflix and get all I want.
A DVR works better with a mechanical disk anyway with a fixed bit rate in a continuous motion access. I guess same reason we should be seeing 128 gig ram machines but are not. Simply there is no market but it could easily be done today
Difference is about 1/3 Americans actually believe far right wing news. I see it on facebook all the time with the red carpets hanging as muslim prayer mats that Obama uses etc.
Glenn Beck and Fox news has more ratings than anything else besides the superbowl on TV.
Go to any major news site and click on an Ukraine story?
90% of the posters are about those American backed Nazi's out to destroy the freedom fighters who had enough of American backed oppression. It is stated so many times it is true that Ukraine is a puppet of the Nato and the US.
Really? How can anyone believe this. It is obvious Russian trolls. Also Crimea is a place with tons of political censorship and political prisoners now. All the comments say it is propaganda and paradise now under Putin. Uh yeah
Likely your drives didn't wear out. No trim in raid with anything under Windows 2012 without intel RST driver screwed up wear leveling as it lost track of virtual rewrites
Ssds are more reliable than platters these days. My 2012 Samsung pro in raid 0 still functions. There is a free tool out there that gives you health and life of a ssd reported I had til 2025 before it goes kaput. Times are changing and sand force is gone.
Try it... and system D guy was troll and off topic trying to start a flameware. SystemD and other init replacements were hip since 2005 when Apple did theirs... until last summer when sys admins who find nothing wrong with dozens of 200 line programs all linked created thousands of threads upon startup felt threatened
No to obamanet! Ted Cruz and IT expert Rush Limbaugh said this could not possibly happen and that a gover nment take over will turn the US into the Soviet Union?!
He's the ultimate true believer. So far Win10 TP (build 10041) is far, FAR worse than Win 8.x. That metro garbage (call it modern or universal if you want to) is always gonna be crap. Windows is making itself into a giant turd, in hopes of selling phones no one wants of, and their overpriced surface stuff which is barely selling... Time to invest in Apple!
Take it off. You do know you can unpin from the start menu. FYI build 10041 switched from the Windows 95 API to XAML so some features still need to be re-added back
FYI I HATE FLAT & UGLY. But it is here to stay. Look at MacOSX Yosemite and web sites? Look at your newest Android? Windows 10 is at least adding color back and some shadows and some build screenshots show aero in the taskbar and start menu too.
So it is modern light so to speak but I do not mind tiles if they are not 8 closed door syndrome IN YOUR FACE flying everywhere when you go to a corner or use a trackpad. It truly is the worst UI ever made and I am in agreement.
We will see. As the years go bye and people stop confusing anti realism with anti skuemorphism it will get better as 10.1 , 10.2 get released by the time Windows 7 goes EOL.
IN Star Wars the Old Republic MMO Correlia took almost 4 to 5 minutes to load. I blamed my CPU at the time. Got an SSD. It loaded in 35 seconds.
Newer games all take 50 to 70 gigs like Wolfenstein and others. Having a Raid 0 SSD with a 1 gig transfer rate over SATA (not even.m2) makes a difference but it is the loading of 50,000 assets a level in parallel make an SSD as fast as 100 disk array more than the transfer rate.
I do VMware like many other slashdotters studying CISCO and MCSE and Linux certifications. No one I would bother with a mechanical disk to load 5 virtual machines at the same time to emulate an enterprise network. I remember shutting them down at 7pm and by 7:20 they would finish if I had 6 or more. With an SSD raid 0 this takes about 45 seconds.
This is why I am a PC. Not a Mac (paraphrased in the commercials)
When something goes obsolete I replace.
In 2013 I got my first SSD in my 2010 AMD phenom II. Then a dual SSD in raid. Then an i7 4770k. Then a another SSD raid. New video card and last a new workstation class computer.
With a mac it is soldered on. Throw away and buy anew.
The old argument it halves performance every 12 months at an exponential rate is so 1990s and those with very obsolete Pentium IVs with 512 megs of ram with XP just keep rocking as who cares if things are better. Word 2003 and Firefox still run fine etc So no biggie anymore. But still like the option
I tried 3 times Windows 8.1 on a new build I did last summer. I am typing this on Windows 7. I agree Windows 8.1 is crap.
Windows 10 is still a work in progress. I can tell you from the 1st preview on VMware Workstation it is improved. Cortana search was annoying but the start men is back. The notification center is actually more desktop friendly and an improvement over 7. Windows Explorer now has cmd prompt here and powershell here which is nice. command prompt is translucent and supports cut and paste and looks like a Linux terminal:-)
Time will tell. Many die hards such as myself will need a reason to upgrade. I think a bigger crises than XP awaits MS by 2020.
But in time yes Windows 10 will have this marketshare for developers to target.
Because if this doesn't flop it means you write one app that also runs on tablets and mobile devices in addition to desktops.
MS screwed up 8 big time with this as you needed to make a different app targeting mobile. Since on the desktop your app marketshare was small it made little sense.
10 will be like macosx with annual.1 updates with no windows,11. In time it will be Microsofts universal platform with the marketshare

It is a Unity plug in that is legit. It basically caches the data and compiles the c++ to ecmascripten a fork of asm.js.
You can download the source and compile it yourself as an executable if you do not want the browser

Stream is the future
People like you .... no offense bud as notca personal attack by any sense will stay home as unsatisfied with the options.
The Obama haters, tea partiers, and the gop will come in very heavy numbers. So that will be my prediction.
If Elizabeth Warren runs that will change
Hit f 12 and select IE 9 under emulation. You can also create a go in AD to put that site in IE 9 mode. That way you can keep IE 11
No way in hell!

Sorry slashdotters. That is no one here
I think it is a product looking for a market.

Where is cheaper and greater ram? We should be seeing 128 gb ram by now and ram drives and caches for faster performance
Nope benchmarks show superior reliability
Likely your drives didn't wear out. No trim in raid with anything under Windows 2012 without intel RST driver screwed up wear leveling as it lost track of virtual rewrites
Actually Hairy this was tested .

Windows 10 has an adaptive UX and user control api to get around this problem.
Haven't used it yet but plan to fire a vm tonight and play with it.
VS 2015 supports android and linux development with cordova. No really you did not miss read that. I like this newer Microsoft
