Neither of those things describe the link between the computer and the printer (note in my comment where I complain that the user doesn't have a router).
So given one laptop and one printer, you are suggesting that the price of the printer will not go up if the printer includes the hardware needed to act as a router?
AFAIK, the auto connect stuff all depends on the router side handling the messy details (and in fact, the wireless printer I have supports at least some of that stuff).
Nah, good businessmen realize that people want cars that work with all the gas, not just the fucking branded gas, and that people will buy more of the cars if they don't have to track down the branded gas.
The assholes that think selling branded gas is awesome are just assholes who like branded gas.
Ah yes, the dreaded 'they saw my term paper' and 'denial of paper' attacks.
Is it really that easy to hijack an adhoc network that is using WPA?
And if we are talking about somebody who would already make the foolhardy choice to have a wireless printer, do the specifics of the wireless matter if your rationale for rejecting it is physical security?
Why would one be worried about it if the system is not online?
Anyway, someone doing real maintenance can probably manage to track down the directories where the data is stored and delete the files manually, the criticism in GP comment was that Adobe did not provide any way to manage the cookies.
That's the first result for a Google search on 'flash prefs', but that is pretty much an incantation, not something most people will think of right away. Getting rid of existing flash cookies requires visiting another page there:
You need a lot of energy for desalinization. There are lots of Californians that are hostile to generating energy, and pulling the energy in from out of state is going to drive up that $1 per cubic meter cost.
There should be a shipping tax on bottled water though, to encourage concentrated coastal populations to drink desalinated water rather than importing bottles from elsewhere (this is sort of predicated on the assumption that convincing them not to drink bottled water is hopeless).
I bet over the last decade, due to expansion of the market, Windows has added many more desktop pcs than the total number of people using Linux (i.e., Microsoft is 'winning'). Given that Linux use is high enough for there to be robust development (i.e., Linux isn't dying), it seems that they are currently coexisting quite nicely.
Yeah, sure. In the center of a DST timezone, it pushes noon from 12:00 to 1:00. Towards the western edge of a huge timezone like the United States Eastern timezone, it pushes it from something like 12:40 to something like 1:40.
If you look at how much money is spent, most consumer goods are food, and most of the food in the U.S. does not come from China.
We get things like electronics and chotchkes from China so it would suck for a while if that were disrupted, but 'most consumer goods come from China' is completely untrue.
Yes, that was the joke. See, GP poster is implying that even though the system should have been using something designed for the load, since it is a government contract, they used Access.
A parallel argument (to the just forced to be part of the union argument) would be that the musicians releasing CC music are just forced to release music under a different license.
Really what I mean is, your distinctions seem somewhat arbitrary.

Montana has speed limits:

And they even expect you to operate your vehicle in "a careful and prudent manner".
I would guess that concerns about the support costs might be more of a factor than the actual implementation cost.

Did you miss the part where the movie starred Bruce Willis?
He and I. Or perhaps she and I. At any rate, socsoc and I disagree. Apparently. Maybe they were speaking hypotheticals rather than their mind.
So 'the user buying something' is a better solution than the printer software supporting ad-hoc networks?
We disagree.
My post was probably sarcastic. I would say applies to itself better than it applies to your comment.
What better way is there to implement a wireless connection when the user doesn't have any wireless networking equipment other than their computer?
If I were an astroturfer, one of the things I would do to try to hide it would be to talk about behaviors I thought made other people astroturfers.

It's not particularly obvious, but there is a fairly easy way to decline them ahead of time:

Time is vaguely about the sun. I live towards the edge of the eastern time zone and high noon here happens at about 1:40 during the summer.
The last 3 decades have done an excellent job of demonstrating just how great a threat protesters are not.
Do you frequently catch them with alcohol and tobacco?
If you do frequently catch them with alcohol and tobacco, do you really think it is entirely the responsibility of the state to deal with that?

I'm mentioning Glen Beck because it is apparently worthwhile for Goldline or whoever to advertise on his program. That's the entirety of my meaning.
So when you say speculator, do you mean the type of person that watches Glen Beck or would buy gold from a vending machine?
And I'm not sure how you would distinguish currency decoupling from a bubble.
