Thanks. I've been using dd-wrt forever. This was my first try in a couple years of OpenWRT, since it now has a usable web interface. Back to dd-wrt, it seems!
If anyone deserves to be fired it is the Netflix CEO.
This. Who's chairman of the board over there?
They want me to maintain two queues, two bills, kill the functionality of auto-adding DVD queue videos to the stream, kill the prediction service, kill the history service, all because 5% of customers are complaining of the price increase?
The shareholders need to demand new leadership immediately before all of their stock value evaporates.
Well, there's one potential benefit - maybe Amazon will acquire Qwikster and we can be done with the boneheads who have killed the formerly great Netflix.
Could this have anything to do with dodging anti-science policies of the American far right?
No, it has nothing to do with that. There are unique, specialized treatments in every corner of the Earth. If they're successful, they'll spread.
Plenty of people travel in all directions to seek advanced care, even (especially) to your 'anti-science' America, and the wealthier the patient the easier it is for him to travel for medical care (or poorer, if they don't have insurance and are seeking affordable care).
Real OS's as smartphones are only a few years old. Something like systemd on Android could implement something like this (that is, all the parts are available).
But look at the haphazard way Google built Android - they're cleaning up now but time-to-market was the only priority when the started.
This, along with the battery life issue mentioned in TFA and missing encryption, is one of the reasons I still carry a 4-day-battery 'feature' phone.
I'm not going to store my financials on a phone that doesn't have an encrypted data store. These guys are making great progress towards it, but Google needs to 'send beer' and take the patches.
Does the kid get another? Do they have to pay? What a mess.
My boy is old enough to be starting kindergarten this fall. He's doing another year of preschool because that's what will serve him best, but OMFG, the kid can break everything. Twice, and then in half again. If he's in the same room with something, it's broken. I have a gigantic pile of stuff in my workshop labeled "the boy broke this - fix it".
A protective case for an iPad? I'll tell you what kind of protective case he'd need for an iPad - a gun safe. With a biometric lock - he's clever and destructive.
If he were going into kindergarten and I was responsible for the iPads he broke, I'd be out $3000 by Christmas.
Whoever came up with this idea never had any kids. They also wrote the voice interfaces for Bing411 that assume input in an anechoic chamber.
At those pressures, we ought to see a planet covered in diamonds, garnets, granulites, etc. - very high temperature metamorphic rocks. If the planet is made of other types of rock, then there probably wasn't that much pressure on it when the rock formed.
Sadly, there's probably a flash chip among the debris at the crash site with HD video on it. If a hundred people were killed or injured some of them were shooting video. I doubt we'll ever see it.
Oh, unless you're a government employee. The courts have recently ruled that they can enter unless there's a physical barrier (gated driveway, for instance).
And I've seen Netflix is certifying the MShield unit in certain OMAP processors lately. Meanwhile, Amazon is just streaming everything on Flash. Netflix has bet on locked-down being a hard requirement. We'll see how that turns out.
Nice. Then they should have ample opportunity to help each other learn. Maybe somebody will get a MacArthur grant to go (out to the wilds to) teach all the parrots of the world how to communicate with humans.
There are probably more 'private' channels than ones available in the store. They're content that Roku doesn't want to advertise for some reason or other.
This list looks fairly well-maintained, if blinding in its layout:
On my satellite package I get Fox and CNNHN. On Roku, I pick up Democracy Now, Al Jazeera, Russia Today, CNN International, BBC World, etc. It makes for a bit of a different level of awareness.
Even the regular channels are good. Both Amazon and Facebook videos look much better on my TV than they do in my browser. Maybe that's because browser Flash stinks, I dunno. Actually, I do - if I save a.FLV and save it out for mplayer to show, it looks better there too, so, yeah, Flash's h.264 decoder stinks.
Cockpit doors don't help when someone blows a hole in the plane.
We don't care about blown up planes, just planes used as missiles. A barometer bomb in checked baggage is the simplest way to blow up a plane. Israel checks all their luggage for them with pressure vessels - we check none.
This kind of bomb brought down Pam Am Flight 103, and has killed more Americans than any other type of airplane bomb. Again, we don't even check for them. Random luggage screenings just mean parallel attempts would be necessary to guarantee success.
Obama was outspending every President in history (while Bush Jr. - all by himself - increased the national debt by over $5 trillion according to the NY Times).
What's the logic here - Bush was really bad so Obama can't be worse?
I keep wondering how firing a million government employees is going to help create jobs.
part of the republican move to dismantle the government. NO more, no less.
Yeah, right. The Republicans have to support their corporate interests and moral crusades that depend on big government.
How many terrorist or bombs got past TSA?
The same number that have tired - none. This is provable since we know the TSA has a very high error rate and no planes have been blown up or hijacked. The odds that they've been attempted and the TSA has stopped them despite their error rates is astronomical.
In related news, I have a special rock near my garden that keeps the tigers out. I know the rock works because there have been no tigers in my garden since I put it there.
A) You have recourse. Far more recourse then you do against a private security agency.
How is it easier to switch governments than airlines?
b) Going to the private sector for jobs like those result in higher costs.
Because the private sector is unionized, has huge pension liabilities, and can't fire anybody? Because competitive contracts never yield efficiency?
You want to get rid of a section of government, start with Homeland security.
Great idea. How about starting with the TSA branch of DHS?
News flash; there are something the government does extremely well. Have a common practice the crosses several corporation and private citizens is on of those areas.

I guess that's all we need to know.
Excuse me while I go divest from any company where the CEO is Chairman of the Board.
I'm running a bit older DD-WRT.
Thanks. I've been using dd-wrt forever. This was my first try in a couple years of OpenWRT, since it now has a usable web interface. Back to dd-wrt, it seems!

I came to the same conclusion, but:
Dual band, well supported OpenWRT.
Mine drops connection every few hours. If yours is stable, which firmware version are you running?
Why cant they do this?
Real OS's as smartphones are only a few years old. Something like systemd on Android could implement something like this (that is, all the parts are available).

It is possible to re-assemble that restoration, which by all accounts is stunning.
Can we send in Harry Tuttle?
I've still got my laserdisc set. Just nothing to play them on at the moment...
Double-wow!
That cable really tied the room together.

This proves it! It's all a lie. Fox news is right! ;)
I don't trust Fox News, but a nobel laureate in physics at least gets me to listen.
Sadly, there's probably a flash chip among the debris at the crash site with HD video on it. If a hundred people were killed or injured some of them were shooting video. I doubt we'll ever see it.
The most horrible is the first video, the woman crying "Jimmy, Jimmy, oh my Jimmy"... the pilot's name...
"Oh, the humanity."
I guess that's what it really means.
Oh, unless you're a government employee. The courts have recently ruled that they can enter unless there's a physical barrier (gated driveway, for instance).
Rich-protection rules.
Walking through an open door is not.
Sure it is - illegal entry. Drop the 'breaking' part of 'breaking and entering'. Especially if there's a no-trespassing sign.
Just because you can physically go inside doesn't mean you're allowed to.
Listen, mister, in this house we gussy up our violence with euphemisms and platitudes!

There were others who voted against it.
Who else who stood against it is seeking a position of power to eliminate it?
We don't need to use the fallacy of the excluded middle to switch from one incompetent right-wing retard to another.
So few are willing to admit that Obama is a right-wing retard. Kudos on your enlightenment.

First, ask yourself where the money comes from to pay those government employees. Then read some Bastiat (free Kindle edition link) . Here's the Cliff's Notes: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parable_of_the_broken_window#Bastiat.27s_argument
