Problem with shortscreen monitors in portrait mode is they end up too narrow. I use a pair of 1024x1280 tallscreen monitors in portrait mode. The vertical is just about right, but they end up a bit narrow on contiguous space for some applications. A shortscreen would only be worse on that.
Exactly. Is this discussion US-centric in not mentioning SIP??? Here in Australia SIP seems very common right through to consumer use of VoIP, albeit mainly for calls to the PSTN. A lot of modems even include a SIP client and hardware for an analogue phone adapter. People generally don't seem to have trouble getting it to work behind NAT. I've had troubles in the past with Ekiga, but Twinkle has worked reliably for me to connect to my SIP provider.
It's probably more likely various odd 12-point drives, or a specialty 33-spline bit referred to... not standard metric tools. They are available, but for the cost of acquiring the tools, makes it more worthwhile to get the job done at an authorised dealer for the average owner.
Dunno about other parts of the world, but SIP is pretty big in Australia for VoIP calls to the legacy telephone system. It's come prominent from naked ADSL services where a SIP VoIP service is often provided for phone calls.
Yes, it's surprising how little is said about Krita. Although it is more focussed to original art than with photo manipulation, a lot of the features overlap, and it does address the main complaints against Gimp, and has for quite some time.
I thought the whole point of this was that it did indeed cater for multiple viewers, and that was the breakthrough worthy of patenting. At least both the summary and article say it is for multiple viewers.
I don't know what you've been doing wrong, but I've done many in-place upgrades of Debian and Ubuntu and never really had problems with them - beyond the loss of older hardware support you generally get in newer versions. The advantage of upgrading is you don't need to keep messing with systemwide config: printers, hostname, networking etc, and don't need to keep a meticulous list of all the packages installed to install them again.
Meanwhile there is commercial software available that runs on a commercial operating system that does a pretty good job of it, using a whole lot of computing power to make the required informed guesses.
The preview-latex component of auctex is hard to beat. You get to keep all the raw latex editing, but have the equations and figures rendered in the editor.
What is a representative sample of URLs? Due to dynamic content, the internet has an infinite number of URLs so surely the percentages you come up with are all about the methods you use to obtain the URLs. If you include enough precision in decimal degree of latitude and longitude, there's probably more of the internet just in google maps than in porn.
Maybe Turkey's support for Gaza is backfiring as people realise there's bigger issues with Turkey and the Kurds, Armenians than there is with Israel and Gaza. Hence moving to censorship for damage control.
If everyone wants it, they'll still need to roll out twice the amount of copper thats in the street now, otherwise they'll run out of lines to connect that 2 pairs from the house into.
Exactly. In using MiB quantities it means they have special knowledge that helps in using computers. Then calling it "MB" takes it a step further leaving the confused general public in awe of the CS wizards for knowing all those technical things.
A Western Digital Caviar Green 2TB is specced at drawing 296mA from the 12V rail. Typical fans draw around 200mA. At that rate I could theoretically have 10 fans and 60 hard drives all within 20A. How often is 20A really going to be too little current at 12V? The regulation and ripple of cheap supplies can definitely be a worry, but I don't see the current rating itself as being the issue for most people. 20A at 12V is 240W just for the 12V rail, and most modern PCs idle at around 60W or less total from the wall with the fans running and disk spinning.
Get a quality 80+ power supply, but for the reasons of power regulation quality in preventing damage to other components, and not maximum output current.
Having learnt to touch type in first qwerty, and then Dvorak, it's clear that Dvorak is a significantly more relaxed and comfortable layout. Your fingers simply don't have to move as much laterally from the home positions. The question is whether the advantage is worth the inconvenience that comes from using a different keymap to most people, and the transition period in learning it.
However, overall the technique is more important than the layout itself: proper qwerty touch typing would be far superior to Dvorak ad-hock pecking. One advantage in learning Dvorak is that the key caps don't match the layout, but this can be replicated in qwerty by physically moving the keys around so you're not tempted to take shortcuts and look at them. Another advantage of a new layout is it forces you to give up old bad habits.

Similarly, you don't lose anything in going from 1366x768 to 1366x1024. It's just a tall widescreen then.

Regardless of where you buy most of your parts, car companies still make a lot of money in the sale of "genuine" parts.

That probably means you're American. In other parts of the world "mathematics" is shortened to "maths".

Soul is just old language, not necessarily with religious connotations. A soul is just a living person, and is even used in the bible in that fashion.
They kept other reactors running at Chernobyl for 14 years after the meltdown.

Their method needs to track the location of the viewers' eyes, so in 3D Apple, TV watches you.

Freedom: freedom to pollute? It seems they already have plenty of that.
Sounds like the "five love languages" which is based on that idea.
The Microbee was a home computer from Australia in the early 80s. With a merger between Microsoft and Adobe, they may just catch its performance.

but give only about 20 Amps on 12V.
