That's how Slashdot works currently... most news sources are submitting everything they have in their RSS feed. See the Firehose section to see how poorly that works.
This is a major problem with television... there used to be 9-inch portable TVs for wireless TV, but the protocols for ATSC don't allow you to move your antenna so that doesn't work. There's an attempt to change the encoding to handle missed packets, but that hasn't been implemented. Come on, can somebody use or add a chip in my iPhone to get broadcasting?
1. Processor costs are too high. 2. Shipping costs are too high for something that fragile. 3. No innovation lately from Intel and AMD, so they're too easily cloned.
Right night to post a dating alert... if you don't have a steady girlfriend, how are you going to meet her? The best way is to find the people you deal with too much... you know, like somebody who helps you too much at your favorite store or restaurant.
While one IP address is all a house needs when NAT is available... you're essentially creating a 56-bit IP+NAT address for each device in your house. The IP address indicating which wire in the city the connection goes to, and the NAT address indicating which machine on the house needs.
But datacenter customers want their service to have an IP address that's strictly theirs... and if every person has an apartment and a server somewhere, you see where this is going.
IP blocks are meant to be a drill-down system. For example, 128.230.x.x is indicates it's on the Syracuse University campus.... with the 16 bits worth of addresses being spread out so that a specific x in the third position would indicate what building to send the packet to.
Microsoft's problem here is that their Azure service has used every one of the IP addresses allocated to it... and Microsoft doesn't have any subnets remaining in the "USA Block" of their IP addresses... so they have to move IPs that would have been used overseas back into the Azure datacenter. As IPv4 continues to be used we're going to start to see more of these "we're running out!" stories.
Well, there's an exception according to the summary that if it's digital content, you can undo that sale for fourteen days, but lose that right if you actually accept delivery. An "I didn't like it!" is great info for bad ice cream, but we can't trust you if you say that about a bad song.
Well, it's the controversial problem of whether an "I agree!" checkbox should be checked or unchecked when it's first presented to the user. There's a third state available in Microsoft Windows supplied checkboxes called "Mixed" that shows the check box in an "in-between" state, but I can't seem to find anybody using that.
We seem to be missing an important point of copyright law here... it's hard to take away a copyrighted work such as a movie that only needs to be seen once. Theaters have refund policies for "this movie sucks"... but too much of that and a would-be popular movie becomes nonexistent.
I thought Greed was "The Multimillion Dollar Challenge" where teams of five tried to answer trivia questions but each round one player was randomly paid to try to take another player out of the game, or be thrown out trying....
Let's think about why we need a public charging standard that's so limited... True outlet in public? That's an invitation for hair toys to the women...
From quickly RFTAing, we've got a problem with the double negative in the headline. iPhones and most non-Google phones don't support the Qi/Duracell Powermat "standard"... they might as well give us a USB port instead of that thing.
Patents in the USA are a monopoly granted by the Constitution and laws that follow in order to provide a way for inventors to make money for a limited time, then depositing the idea in the public domain so others can manufacture the product or use the idea to expand upon it. It's all about encouraging innovation, because without a patent system, there'd be no incentive to do so and the inventor would have to find other jobs.
Checks are actually moving faster than ever with the Check21 (The 21st Century Checking Act) which went into effect over a decade ago. Now, when WalMart scans a check in front of you at the register, the money instantly moves from your account to WalMart's, and the banks start reconciling where the cash that the transfer represents right away. If there's any delay in a check showing up in your Online Banking, it's because you sent it via the Postal Service and that still takes a little time but is also always getting faster.
If I could just get government approval, I'm willing to set up a bank that really moves fast.
Dissent is allowed in America. Anybody who doesn't like it... what other crimes are you committing? We're sure you're covering one somehow... how about unelected government?
The problem there is that Bosnia was recently a war zone, so Internet wasn't built up there and still hasn't gotten there to the point it's in USA or Canada yet... you got your data, but there's just not enough equipment there for everybody to be using it all at once.
1. Victim notices his card gone. 2. Chip and PIN or signature invoked on questionable card. 3. Phone doesn't work because service was pulled due to the voided transaction 4. Whatever the police want to do 5. Failure!

I think they're shouting several claims here...
1. Processor costs are too high.
2. Shipping costs are too high for something that fragile.
3. No innovation lately from Intel and AMD, so they're too easily cloned.

KentuckyFC, you seem to need a trademark license to use that username... where'd you get that from?
"Peaking" means that sales are at an all-time high and expected to slope downward soon.
Yep, a checkbox indicates "I assume you didn't want this on." or "This option already was set by us to off/on, did you want to change that?"

Yep, that's the point where a return policy goes too far.

You can delay an offer to sell you make better than you can delay a "must act now or you'll regret it!" situation.

Is there enough power there for your girlfriend to dry her hair yet?

If you fail to document yourself to a lot of people during your educational process, I can't hire you.
Uhm, isn't that called the "Finance Charge" here?
