I always figured that conservatives evolved from the innocent-seeming but violent, territorial, face-eating chimpanzees, and liberals evolved from those oversexed, touchy-feely bonobos. Now we know the truth!
Real liberals, yeah. The socialists who think nothing of threatening others with violence to get their way - chimps.
What does "built for a high res display" even mean?
It probably means vector graphics (icons, etc.) fonts specified in picas or points or em's, etc. Funny thing is I sat in on a session on this at WWDC '98. High-res displays were "due out soon" then.
I'm glad to see it hit the streets 14 years later. Glad I didn't hold my breath, though.
You're right, we really need to elect a group of people to coordinate the open source ecosystem to stop this messy chaos we have now. Folks who are smarter than us and can tell us what we all need to do, which projects should exist, and which technologies will win the future.
If you consider the Applecare as part of the purchase price, which is pretty much what is needed, there is no repairs.
Yep - the Apple model is pretty well set in stone now: max out the specs when you buy it, buy AppleCare, and after 3 years get rid of it (possibly selling it for more than it should be worth) for a new one.
If you're willing to give Apple $1K/yr they'll give you a pretty nice laptop and a nice experience. For many people that's a worthwhile bargain. Me, I'll wait until they repudiate their attacks against bloggers in court (as 'not real journalists'). Maybe without an ecomaniac in charge they could do that.
Hopefully, the new display will be a success, and other manufactures will finally some out with truly high def monitors for less than a car payment again.
You don't want to know what I'd pay for a 22" monitor with good color and 4K vertical resolution. Several "car payments" at least.
Heck, let's at least get those available on the market and then we can bitch about price.
Those are pretty bogus numbers. If the manufacturer sold 1000 units, he'd allocate $1M to research at that rate. It's more likely that the manufacturer is selling at least tens of thousands of these, and a hearing aid doesn't need tens of millions of dollars of research per model.
Rent @ $450? What, is the retailer only selling two of these a month? I actually know a lady who used to be in the business and she had about 8 half hour appointments a day, and that was as a sole-proprietor with no employees. That's 80 units a month if you figure two vists per customer. Heck, call it two additional return visits and 40 units a month. She didn't pay $16K per month in rent. Nor did she need $5K in continuing ed or $13K in diagnostic equipment every month.
Looks to me like somebody is trying to hide their rent-seeking ways.
the first time mysterious guys on a motorcycle attached a magnetic bomb to the car of a guy who just happened to also be a prominent nuclear scientist in Iran.
And just happened to be a major internal opposition leader, and a university professor who was not involved in the country's nuclear program.
From folks inside Iran - yes, there are outside agencies doing targeted assassinations, and yes, the Iranian government is using it as cover to take care of some of their own 'problems' as well.
Or not caloric intake per se, but perhaps e.g. protective fatty acids, which are usually found in trace amounts in western diets, so a large caloric intake is required to get sufficient quantities. Or any number of other possibilities.

you can also use something like Clonezilla to make a complete backup of the original drive onto an external or network drive.
I always use something like:
gzip/dev/sda | nc myserver 33333
and
nc -l 33333 > foo-laptop-2012-06-image.gz
so far I just have a bunch of worthless images cluttering up one of my server disks, and I'll probably delete them when I get rid of the hardware, but who knows, maybe they'll be needed some day.
luke howard *did* do it [the equivalent of a version 2.0]. he *did* release the product [in 2002]... and he had to hold out for 8 years for a decent offer of a buy-out. everyone kept offering him stupid-money ($100k or less).
Serious question - why did I never hear of this? Either it didn't really work, it was the worst marketing job of all time, or it wasn't really open source.
that's why luke howard's work was successful, so quickly, because he leveraged the best available work in the most efficient and least disruptive way possible.
And every Unix nerd would have recognized this as the right approach and deployed it, if it spec'ed as per above. Something you're not telling us?
And why can't I buy tickets for vahhalen on the van halen website like www.vanhalen.com/tickets/boston?
You can, but 'www' and 'com' are semantically meaningless in that URL. Those will be seen as cruft in the future. Now, you might argue that vanhalen.music/tickets/boston is more stable, but it's also more to remember. If you're selling $150 tickets, $8 for a domain registration seems do-able to help people better remember.
People want something for nothing. Always have, always will.
They invent things like, "my ideas are unique," "they're worth money in the abstract," and "everybody else should pay so that I can get money for my unique, abstract ideas."
Crazy talk is mostly harmless... until some politician gets ahold of it, that is.
Oh, yeah, and everybody who reads this post should send me $5.
I bet they'll still inexplicably insist that my e-mail address is invalid, no matter how many times I try confirming it again (given up at this point).

I guess it depends on the person...
Yes,and often that's the manager, and how he projects his actions in the situation onto the worker.
I've almost always seen the psychopath-spectrum manager anxious to have a former employee escorted off the premesis.
In other words, you can do this plan for 1GB of data, or pay $80 for 300MB of data (basically, $40 for 300MB of data, since the phone access costs $40
To be totally pedantic: $25 for phone, $25 for data and $30 for that fancy phone you bought on a high-interest hidden installment plan.
Hell, I've asked some cop friends and they admit that it's hard to be 100% legal.
Which is important, in case you become inconvenient.

"Permit me to issue and control the software of the device and I care not who makes its hardware."
the client might use the device to do things other than handle their disability.
So, hackers are automatically disqualified from getting any device, then?
Freedom -- true freedom -- is about people having the
ability
to be assholes if they choose.
Yep, that's human freedom and what BSD is all about (well, except they try to force copyright on you - WTFPL FTW).
GPL anthropomorphizes code and gives it ultimate freedom. Different ends, different means.
True freedom is anarchy. No thanks.

My estimates put the Die's per Wafer at:

Show your work! :)
(300/2)^2*pi/160=442 and that's assuming no room for cutting/packaging/waste.

And that moment of uncertainty should have provided all the impetus needed to find the vulnerability.

Yep - plan for the worst, hope for the best.

You want the 'corporate' LTS release. Err, Extended Support Release (ESR).
Okay, that's great, but what are the much-needed features that they added?
Oh, you mean that now the UI runs in its own thread? Or that it uses a forking model rather than the current cluster-futex?
nm, that was abandoned, marked 'too hard to ship in six weeks'.
