I remember dealing with those issues. My HP laptop had a PITA broadcomm 802.11b wifi NIC which at the time needed ndiswrapper in Linux. I wanted to install either an Intel or a Atheros 802.11g NIC, but the damn laptop wouldn't take any non-HP cards.
Had that happen once. I made do with a CardBus WiFi card until the native Broadcom driver (b43?) started to work. ndiswrapper never worked for me.
OTOH, another HP notebook (maybe a slightly older one) shipped with a wireless NIC with no WPA support...kinda useless nowadays. I was able to swap in a newer NIC scavenged from a broken Dell (IIRC) without issue. Maybe this whitelisting is somewhat selective as to where it was applied.

Majel Barrett, actually, for both TOS and TNG...and according to Memory Alpha, all the way through to the 2009 reboot. You can hand over your geek card on the way out the door.:-)
I do know a ton of women that go into feel good majors that are vital to society and help people but unfortunately don't pay well.
Yes, if only they could be paid as well as a garbage man.
Garbagemen are paid as well as they are because it's a dirty, stinky, thankless job that needs to be done to keep cities and towns clean. How many women do you know who'd sign on to spend all day tossing other people's trash into the back of a truck?
Even that isn't a guarantee of an unmetered connection. There's supposedly a limit on my cable-modem connection, though I've never been throttled or charged a fee for exceeding that limit.
a device model that everything seems to need a driver for
That seems to mostly be a Windows thing. Consider webcams as an example: maybe a dozen or so drivers on Linux support most of the webcams that have ever been sold (the gspca and uvc drivers account for a fairly large percentage all by themselves), while on Windows, you need the manufacturer-provided driver for each different webcam.
First- and last-name fields in a database most likely should be set up as not null, as everybody has them. Middle initials (or middle names) are a bit more hit-or-miss and maybe should allow nulls. With this, your "Jennifer Null" example should be read into the database properly.
(One of my pet peeves: database tables in which all fields allow nulls. That's almost as bad as a database with no relations defined between tables.)
Funny how a bill which would give bad police another tool to harass poor minorities this way is coming from a Democrat.
What's even more funny is how you still think the Democrats give two shits about the "little people." They're all about growing the government and its power. (So are Republicans, but at least they pretended to be in favor of smaller, more accountable government.)
...or you'll lose your phone while on a trip (guilty!) and will have no way to get back in when you return.
How is that any different from losing your car keys?
In 27 years of driving, I've managed to avoid losing my car keys.
A couple of months ago, I put my phone down at a taco stand in Ensenada and forgot to pick it back up before leaving. (Stupid? Yes, but I blame the beer...and whatever other forms of alcohol we had on trail that day.:-) ) My car keys, OTOH, were packed away in my luggage on the boat, as I wasn't going to need them until we were Stateside.
That is a fork and QT-based implementation of the original Transmission
Since Transmission already uses Qt on Linux (and probably on Mac OS X as well), how much is really changing in the Windows version? (Been using it for years, BTW...mostly to monitor a remote instance that runs on Linux, but I'll occasionally spin up a local instance to download LibreOffice or whatever.)
I had a phone with a light enough spring in the switchhook that you could tap out a number to dial, and as long as you were somewhat consistent with your cadence, you could successfully dial out that way. It was a run-of-the-mill touchtone phone that I had bought for not much money; about the only distinguishing features were the mechanical ringer (most phones were switching to electronic ringers by this point) and the clear case. Dialing with the switchhook was more of a shits-and-grins thing than any sort of necessity.
OK, here's a real point on Democrats and the Second Amendment: Ignore what they say. Pay attention to what they do. They've been most successful at pushing their intolerable acts in Connecticut, Maryland, Colorado, and Washington.
I suspect the changes would mostly be to thin laptops, and to cable modems and home routers.
For portable devices, you could just incorporate an XJACK. Pop it out when you need it, leave it in when you don't. I think it'd even fit something as small as a Macbook Air, as they were originally designed to fit in a Type II PC Card. Whatever patents used to cover it have more than likely expired by now, too, or should be close to expiring.
I saw their use of "SE" as a nod to the Macintosh SE (and SE/30): decently powerful hardware (for the time, especially the SE/30) in a small, all-in-one package.
I finally broke down and bought one of the new mega-sized phones lately (an Asus Zenfone 2) because I was constantly bumping up against the RAM and storage limits of the Moto G I had bought a couple months ago to replace a Moto X I had lost on a trip. The Moto X was probably the last phone to combine reasonable specs with a not outrageously-sized screen, and it was released more than two years ago. The Zenfone's doing pretty well performance-wise (4 GB of RAM helps here), but it's sometimes a bit tricky to use one-handed. (It has a one-hand mode that scales the active screen area down...that helps somewhat, but it still doesn't make the overall size any smaller.)
I just migrated phones yesterday, and used Titanium Backup to move the messages, call history, and WiFi AP credentials from the old to the new. It just writes those things to a few XML files, which it's then up to you to move between devices however you want.
This is very true. If you look at the Black Lives Matter web page, you will see its mission statement is purely for Blacks only. There is no mention of Asian, Hispanic, or White. If you had a movement like BLM (which Mark supports), and changed all the words of Black to White (or Asian, Hispanic, etc.) almost every Black person would denounce "White Lives Matter", "Asian Lives Matter", or "Hispanic Lives Matter" as rascist, because it did not include Blacks.
You don't even have to go that far...remember how they got their panties in a bunch every time someone dared to utter "All Lives Matter?"
If they really wanted to be honest, the racists (that's what they are, and if you disagree with that assessment, you can GFY) behind Black Lives Matter would tack on an "Only" in front.
.isos are overkill. Just get the movie data any way you can and store it on a network share. A hell of a lot easier than dealing with optical burning. If you arent burning to optical, then you dont need isos.
How do you preserve the DVD extras/menus with this option?
Who cares about the menus and other crap? The menus serve no purpose when you're serving everything up through something like Kodi or Plex. If there's some "making-of" featurette or whatever that you can't live without for a particular movie, rip it and store it alongside the movie.
MakeMKV works pretty well for ripping both DVD and Blu-ray. It'll rip audio and video as-is (subs, too, if you need them) and dump them into a file that you can either serve up as-is or crunch it down further with HandBrake.
That said, it might confuse people who've driven cars with shifter stalks, but those haven't been on the market in something like 40 years and haven't been common for at least 30
"Not common for at least 30 years?" Pretty much every truck uses column shift if it has an automatic. My first new vehicle out of college was an '02 S-10; it was a column-shift automatic. So were all of the U-Hauls I've ever driven, ranging from 10' to 26'.

What's a TV antenna doing in your phone? Wouldn't it be useless without also having a tuner of some sort in there?
