Sorry dude. Hate to break it to you but the answer is neither. You have to shove it up your dick hole to get it back into your balls where it came from. Good luck with that!
Ah but you can't throw out computer technology because it doesn't fit your narrative. Even if it a bad case, it's still a case, and to disregard its effects is cherry picking at best.
XKCD is classified as entertainment because of the jokes obviously. But I have to say that the time/task chart presented in the second comic (1205) seems legit at least to my untrained eye. Do you know anything about the validity of that chart?
You're being obtuse and you know it. It is unlimited. Say you have 4GB at one speed (4G or whatever). When you hit that cap, they don't cut you off. It just slows down. You could torrent anything you wanted for the entire month and it will still work, it'll just take awhile. You already knew this though I'm sure. How is that not unlimited? They don't hide it. It's right on the webpage!
Never said it was. You asked "what were they and for which version" and I replied. It isn't even a slow process as many seem to claim. Take a fresh XP install and test drive it. Fairly quick. Then turn on Windows Update and let it download the 200+ updates and then drive it again. You'll ask where the other half of the engine went!
Given that XP support has been dropped there is no reason to run windows update on it so it isn't an issue anymore.
Are you a software/OS guy like most Slashdotters (I'm not, I'm hardware)? I ask because if you are, I can't believe you are actually advocating that I ignore every security patch that Windows put out- regardless if they will make no new ones. That's like telling me to not worry about getting a polio vaccine because it hasn't been a problem in ages. I'll get my shots (real or virtual) just in case. But FYI, to not be supported one or 2 updates pop up on windows update every month or two. I, unfortunately, can't remember what they are right now. Probably the Malicious Software tool that I never use (but install anyway).
Oh it's off. There is a huge list of things I turn off and I didn't feel like listing them all, even if I could remember them. Normally I have to go look up one of those "69 Million Tips to Make Your Windows Fly" articles to refresh my memory.
I wasn't arguing so you can get your own evidence. I was just pointing out that there are issues with accumulated updates whether they are a "bug" or not. And speaking of, what classifies that as a bug anyway? How shitty does a system have to run before it is just a bug and not something systemic?
I typically only use 2 devices to do anything that one would really be concerned with regarding security. That XP machine is only for web surfing, arduino programming, and a little bit of World of Warcraft. My banking and purchasing are done on my Win7 desktop which is fully patched, firewalled, AV'd, Firefoxxed, Noscripted, Ad Blocked, Peer Guardianed, and when I want it VPN'd.
hehe, I'll await your study! I have 2 of the GV bulbs. I think they were the first 2 I purchased. I hate that ugly 2700K color though. The Cree's are ~10/ea at Home Despot and you can get them in 5000K for that crisp blue-white color. I haven't noticed an RFI but then again, I haven't been looking for any. They use pretty cheap driver boards though so it doesn't surprise me at all. I've had the driver boards in CFLs do the same thing your LEDs are doing.
I have reflashed my phone ROMs several times, but that is because I poke around in places I shouldn't and soft brick them. If clearing all the app caches doesn't help, and you're certain that you don't have a ton of useless background processes running you don't need, check to ensure that you haven't got your system drive almost full. Evidently SSDs slow down the fuller they get. There are several Google results that have quick lists of things that will help if you search for "android sluggish" or similar. The cache flushing solved all of the problems I've had as far as sluggishness and it seems (in my amateur opinion) that the Facebook app is the one hogging all of the cache, or at least the one to fill it up first. If you're a fan of the PC cleaning software CCleaner, they now have an Android version available that will quick flush all the cache for you. The Play store also has a lot of specialized apps for that. Since my phone is rooted, I use Titanium Backup to clean mine since they threw that in there as an extra function but I have used CCleaner as well. Can't comment on any other cache app.
Because everyone claims the 2nd is to keep the 4th (and others) from being repressed. Looks like we're doing a fantastic job. To put it another way, it's OK for the TSA to shove their fingers up your ass as long as you're holding a gun while it is happening. I don't often agree with stoddart, but put up or shut up!
And you're the one so scared about a criminal, who you'll probably never meet, breaking into your house and raping your face or something. Who is exactly pissing their bed? Both sides evidently.
They do that. Every school I've ever had has a dress code. Or is school not government enough? You can also try going into court looking like a scumbag. The judges (at least in Chattanooga) will throw your ass out. That's also government. I could probably find a few more.
I point this out because, as you've mentioned, it doesn't make logical sense. That's because it is an emotional problem. We ban what seems scary and let the apparently mundane keep right on truckin even if it's mostly the same. That's part of what humans are and a great way to manipulate them as we are all now seeing.
I go ahead and say this in every gun thread Slashdot has, you're the first mentioning it, so you get the response.
The Federalist Papers, Common Sense, Poor Richard's Almanac, or the 1776 Jefferson & Madison Spring Catalog are not the Constitution. While those publications can give someone insight into that particular author's point of view and intentions, they in no way should be used to base law on. If what they meant was good enough, as you claim, they should have written it down in the official legal document. They didn't.
Do you have some special set of things you do to maintain that performance or do you do the same things all the CNet type sites tell you- turn off superfetch, kill Windows Search, etc? I already do most of those but I'm always looking for one more clock cycle of performance!
My Android devices need the app caches flushed out every couple months or the entire phone gets terribly slow. The sandbox has a hole in it or it doesn't work like you think it does. I'm a hardware guy so I have no idea what its issue is.
Don't know about him, but I do believe we had an article on here back in the spring about the updates being a huge issue for Win XP. Dunno about 7 or anything else. Yeah, yeah, I know, Win XP is old and we shouldn't care but you go ahead and tell my 2007 model Thinkpad that. It still flies on XP, better than my newish AMD E2 on Win 7.
Curiously, do you own any of the Cree units that Home Depot (and others) sell? And if so where would you rate them compared to the two you mentioned? I only buy Cree bulbs since I've had a good bit of luck with their flashlights.

I mean, like, have you HAD Chipotle?

You owe me a new keyboard! Preferably one made of Legos! You've won the Internet today. I'm outta here!
What a pathetic human you are, AC.

Harbor freight has wall fishes for $10. Can't beat that for something you'll use one time!

It's not about slavery! It's about States' Rights!

You sure about that?

Pretty convenient, huh?

You consider this article positive? Troll logic astounds me!
