Well, this one time I was at the Prudential Center at 3am (hailing a cab at that hour was more challenging than I had expected). Since it wasn't locked then, I'm not sure they lock at all. They probably just kick the hobos out.
I've had this twice, and twice had surgery to have this removed (not same location).
It may differ between cases, but in my case you really could only feel the top of it, the abscess part of it. The abscess is the symptom, the cyst is the actual problem.
The operation itself removes the cyst, the surrounding follicles and a bit of flesh for good measure. Kinda like removing a tree and its roots.
From the article: "Just a few weeks ago, GINA received overwhelming support in both the Senate, with a unanimous vote of approval, and the House of Representatives, where the legislation was passed by a landslide vote of 414-1."
And "under the hood" it's also calling 32bit x86 assemblies, what's your point?
The point of any decent VM API/Framework like.net is that you shouldn't have to worry about the underlying calls.
Sure, the.net framework may be calling Win32 under the hood right now, but there's no reason to believe that that can't be swapped out for Something Completely Different (tm).
Of course, once you start using stuff like [DllImport] to directly access Win32 API, all bets are off and you are on your own for any future upgrades.
Since you're probably using Task Manager to look at OUTLOOK.EXE, you can add a couple of columns to its view to see IO activity. Go to View -> Select Columns -> tick IO reads, IO writes and IO other.
Presto Chango, you now have a clear view of which processes are grinding the disk.
Console games do get updated these days too. Xbox 360 games get patches on a regular basis. It's even less than a week ago that Call of Duty 4 got a patch to address some issues and improve gameplay.
Ah, yes. Microsoft came out with DirectX because Linux and other Unix-like operating systems were cutting so heavily into the DOS/Windows marketshare
Or (probably more realistically) they came out with DirectX to create a single hardware agnostic development platform for games to make it easier to crank out more games faster.
Most video and audio are streaming, which uses UDP instead of TCP
I keep hearing this over and over again, but I've never actually come across a site in the wild that actually does that. What common streaming protocols actually use UDP instead of TCP? And what popular sites actually USE them?
Well, in Europe there's NASN if you want NFL or MLB. I probably have more access to baseball through NASN now than I did when I lived in the US. Plenty of live games too!
Sorry, yum fails the "Do what's bleeding obvious!" test.
Example: yum install somepackage
If yum finds "somepackage" and only "somepackage" and is able to determine that "somepackage" doesn't depend on anything that hasn't been installed already, IT STILL PROMPTS TO ASK IF YOU WANT TO INSTALL "somepackage"!!!
I said "yum install somepackage", I didn't say "yum find-and-then-ask-me-if-I-really-want-to-install somepackage".
Phase 1. map all underground cables and have the plans ready and available at a very reasonable price at the local planning office. Phase 2. impose heavy fines on contractors who cut cables that have been mapped. Note that this should of course only apply if the cables are mapped correctly with the correct depth on the map and the cables were dug in the ground correctly the first time (see below). Phase 3. put all new cables in the ground and label correctly and ban all new overhead cables in urban areas.

The proper way to put a cable in the ground in a safe manner is as follows: Step 1. dig a small trench for the cable. Step 2. put some fine sand* in said trench. Step 3. insert cable Step 4. cover cable with more of fine sand Step 5. put a thick plastic ribbon on top of fine sand. Step 6. cover ribbon with a thin layer of fine sand. Step 7. fill trench with the original material dug up from the trench. Step 8. map cable with depths and notify the proper authorities.
*the fine sand will help the backhoe operator and backhoe assistant (every backhoe operator should have one) know where the cable is.
Another variation is to put pipes similar to pvc plumbing pipes into the trench. This reduces the amount of trench digging needed in the future.

Sounds like you have ReSharper installed.
Do yourself a big favor and disable it, if not outright uninstall it.
So at what point does one become an official graybeard?
3 digit uid? 4 digit? a low 5 digit one?

Yes, I'm fairly sure that there are quite many countries where you can't buy Coca Cola or a Toyota.

That's easy.
He'd make a plan and he'd follow through, that's what Brian Boitano would do.
My favorite lawyer quote is this from the 1939 movie about Jesse James.

I have my mobile phone automatically sync its clock to the one from the network.
Well, if they ended the reply with " and lunchtime, doubly so", they'd have my vote!

Yeah, those F-22s really are kicking butt against those pesky insurgents in Iraq.
Err,
No.
Every NT based OS from Microsoft has had IE and Windows explorer as two completely separate processes so killing one won't affect the other.
I can have a 100 IE windows open, kill explorer.exe and my IE windows won't be affected one bit.
Even if I enter a URL in a Windows Explorer window, it launches my default browser to that URL.

Try to imagine all life as you know it stopping instantaneously and every molecule in your body exploding at the speed of light.
That's OK, I've had a good run.

*cough* Games? And don't give me that lame "well, you get an Xbox/Playstation/Wii/whatever for those!" answer to that question.
There is no better controller combo in FPS games than WASD + mouse. Period.
