ow you push the Windows button you are looking at a bare minimum 45 seconds and that is if you used hibernate, with EG? 6 seconds cold boot. Now lets talk battery life, Win 7 HP X64 gets right at 6 hours on my 6 cell, if I use Brazos tweaker to lower the voltage I can squeeze it to 6:45, now how does that compare to EG? Over 7 hours with no tweaking. Now lets talk intuitive, if you know Windows you know Win 7, the search box is a big help but otherwise it hasn't really changed much. EG has a top row of tabs where everything is VERY logically laid out, you got games, video, audio, the appstore (yes they have an App store and its nice), and system.
So the benefits of ExpressGate are exactly the same as using a tablet? Because Linux already has a decent-sized market share of that market.
His point isn't strictly a selfish one. The egg is the first step in a very complex process, and women who have general health problems (cancer, early-onset menopause) aren't likely to produce the healthiest babies.
"Let's say you're present governor of Illinois and you're in a room with a former governor of Illinois on your right and a former governor of Illinois on your left. Chances are the room you're in is jail."
In the podcast they explain how North Korea is able to sell their fake currency, as well as the other shady things their government does to make money. It's worth a listen if you're interested in the North Korean regime.
Doom was a lot easier to run than games that used earlier DOS extenders.
Remember Zone 66? Just to run Zone 66's crazy DOS extender I had to use a config.sys menu to boot into a separate configuration that only loaded my sound driver but not the memory manager. Total pain to set up.
Well that and it's a fundamentally bigotted, ignorant law that the state's lawyers are well aware is indefensible. The Mormons can ironically defend "traditional marriage" all they want, ultimately it's their money to lose; not the taxpayer's.
After missing three or four timed-transfer connections, I've given up on Google Maps for transit.
I'm sure it works sometimes, but since they've made it impossible to check their work (they don't give you access to the schedule data) it's a hell of a lot easier just to check the schedule myself.
That said it does work okay for short bus trips, but I've already got an app on my phone that tells me when the bus is arriving base on real-time data. No need to bring Google Maps into the picture.
Also, on a Mac it's impossible to launch a second instance of a program by double-clicking it again, or clicking its icon in the Dock, etc, so it's a bit of a moot point.
On Unity you can middle-click on an icon in the dock to make it launch a second instance; dunno if there's something like this on the Mac. (Knowing Apple, it's probably something like Command-Option-Shift-Z-L double-click)
Without the splash, you'd sit and wonder if the program was loading or not... and then probably launch it a second time before it was finished loading
This is a key feature of the OS X dock -- you can see the icon "bouncing" as the program loads. Unity has a similar feature where the icon's background fades in and out.
Guess what I'm saying is this: it would be nice if the OS could take care of telling the user that a program is loading. That way the user knows what's happening and the software doesn't have to be responsible for alerting the user to its own start up. In particular it removes the need for the always-on-top modal splash screen, which really has no place in a multitasking environment anyway.
Users don't have the option of trading network performance for faster local storage. The two are so unrelated it's not clear as to why we're comparing them (I'd use the term "apples and oranges" but I'm sure that would piss off some anti-Apple trolls.)
And sure, SSDs could be faster, believe me nobody would complain if they were. But after using spinning magnetic storage for decades, SSDs seem blisteringly fast to me.
Maybe Microsoft doesn't care about this but smaller companies are concerned and will do what they can to keep the APIs backwards compatible.
I can't think of a single vendor that's bent over backwards more than MS to keep their APIs backward compatible -- the fact that Windows 7 can run applications from the 80's is a testament to that.

There is a network like that, it's called Freenet.

There's an excellent Planet Money podcast on North Korea's illegal economy.

Windows 95 came with a 3d capture the flag game and a Weezer music video. Windows 7? Nope.
Therefore, computers in 1995 were better.
Glad I'm not one of Dr. David Shechner's peers, then. Although from the sound of things he must not have many left!

New Apple CEO Tim Cook: 'I'm Thinking Printers'

What about QML? It's designed for rapid prototyping, it's cross platform, and you can extend it with C++.

Pointing out performance issues is useful. Using them as an excuse to shift blame is not.

With AT&T you can block all texts that come from the internet.
Many other carriers have a similar option. It doesn't cost anything.
Which is worse: caffeine, or falling asleep at my desk every day until I get fired, run out of unemployment, and starve to death?

Is there a vaccine for colds, broken bones, cancer, heart attacks, strokes, car accidents...?
Because if there isn't, it sounds like doctors still have plenty to do.
Like for example, the Windows API?
Seems like "Open API" is another way to say "proprietary software."
Ssshhh, don't give away Hollywood's dirty secret. The entire LA area will have a severe waiter shortage if anyone gets wind of this.
Believe it or not, most doctors actually care about keeping people healthy. They're not just in it for the money.
Besides, does any doctor really want kids with polio, smallpox, etc. running around their office -- potentially getting other patients sick?
