I'm always baffled when people complain that Outlook is slow. The corporate exchange server I am connected to is not even in the same country as I am. And outlook starts in about 7 seconds in a cool boot (ho often do you that, once a week?). That's still too long, but it's not 2 minutes. My mail is all on the server, no local.ost file. (probably the same for you too, since you switched to an (no longer developed afaik) imap client)
But there are some crazy corporate spyware/management stuff that corporation install on our PCs that slow things down, and for sure "going rogue" and using another mail client that is not IT-managed works around that.
None of these has used cinepaint exclusivly. these productions used a hundred time more photoshop and roto tools than cinepaint. they also used Notepad, it doesn't mean that notepad is an awesome production tool. any crap gets used on production where there are hundreds of people and a dozen vfx companies involved. it's meaningless but the cinepaint people do love to hang on to the illusion. All of this only occured because of one programmer at Rhythm & Hues. Cinepaint was dump HARD quickly after.
running an emulator on your pc is rrelevant because
1) it'd a terrible user experience, and not mainstream. console is about simple and plugged to your tv set
2) even if it became so, Sony loses money on the hardware, the business model is royalties on selling the games.
3) if your pirating the software anyway, see 2).. Sony wasnt making money with you buying the hardware
using thread is not necessary to do multiprocessing and use multicore machines, it's just one approach, one that is seldom used on multi cpu servers, especially back then. the alternative is to use multiple concurrent processes, which has been the UNIX way to do things since the beginning and is still widely used today for scalable systems - especially those that will also use multiple separate machines that don't share RAM
he violated the JSTOR Eula against using bots AND he did that not to download the documents for his own personal use, but for the purpose of redistributing them outside of JSTOR. This is his own admission. it's totally irrelevant whether he had the rights to read the documents, he never had any intentions of reading 4 million documents. also, he crashed the computer in the process by overwhelming the server
Aaron Swartz must have thought was he was doing was wrong, since he broke into a computer wiring closet and hid a computer there to run his script to get all of that stuff out there. He even covered his face to security cameras
Ugh, am I the only one who thinks the "elites" should have to prove themselves in hand-to-hand combat with whoever they are trying to enforce their bullshit on?
completely off topic because Fox is no getting any money from your cable provider that could pay for the programming, and this complaint is about a feature that turns the screen black and k
skips thecommercials, the user doesn't even have the opportunity to see if he would like to not watch the commercial. it's a systemic way to block out the ads, not an individual walking out of the room during a single break
but they did rework the whole win32 stack, and apps won't simply work on Arm by recompiling. only metro apps will be accepted in the AppStore, afaik, and that's the only way to install apps on arm
he's trying to say that phones are globally overpriced, and not onto in Apple world
However, I think what's missing here is to factor in the complexity of these devices. they are computers, and are not really comparatively overpriced. But it seems the bozo who wrote that summary thinks that if a carrier can sell the iphone at 99$, then that is the price of the phone. Forgetting all how the the subsidies work
probably because at 399$ the iPad is slow at cost or below cost to education.
for most product you have no idea what the cost price is, there is nothing unusual about the iPhone.
Ho, and yes, a smaller device with a cell phone radio could be more expensive to product, that's also reasonable.

what's talked about in the article here is twice as old as anything you list here. windows 3.1 is from 1992, 21 years ago. XP is from 2002.

no, the windows sdk is free to download for anyone, and in fact you have to install the msdn doc from the web after you install visual studio
mmm i don't have the latest osx, but I don't think gcc and xcode is installed by default, you have to download it -- or get it from the app store now
