  1. Re:Ripples, echos, aftershocks on Recent Quasar Observations Support Lots of Mini-Bangs Instead of One Big Bang (wired.com) · · Score: 0

    If for any reason, it suddenly disintegrated into lots of smaller objects in the same way of a cloud of a sparks created by a magicians disappearing trick.

    What happens to the matter/mass that causes if to no longer effect gravity? Or are you saying that because it's just more spread out

  2. Re:By length then alphabetical order on Wi-Fi Now Has Version Numbers, and Wi-Fi 6 Comes Out Next Year (theverge.com) · · Score: 1

    Stadium seating often goes A-Z, AA-ZZ

  3. Re:Friendly competition on Heat and Humidity Slow Down High-Frequency Trading Due To Microwave Links (hackaday.com) · · Score: 1

    I worked at a place that had a short distance microwave link that had issues during storms and, due to poor placement, errant branches. At one point I mentioned doing a balloon based denial of service attack. So, a jammer would be highly illegal, and the FCC would be on your ass, but a physical blockage wouldn't be (assuming you have rights to use the space).

  4. Re:Video hosting? on PeerTube, the 'Decentralized YouTube,' Succeeds In Crowdfunding (quariety.com) · · Score: 1

    Search and discovery, channels, subscriptions, playlists, etc.

  5. The same place the HTML/JS/CSS and images come from. It's just another asset.

  6. I expect that it's exactly the opposite and important staff members are actually connected to the "fake" tower. Nice private cell network for communications you don't want going over other peoples networks.

  7. I updated to 17.10 on my Yoga 2 pro, am I fucked? on Ubuntu 17.10 Temporarily Pulled Due To A BIOS Corrupting Problem (phoronix.com) · · Score: 1

    I've had no problems so far, but will this brick my machine in the near future?

  8. Re:failure is a feature not a problem on The People GoFundMe Leaves Behind (theoutline.com) · · Score: 1

    Unfortunately, the same features apply, only instead of starting a company, it's getting to live.

  9. Re:The Lesson? Kickstarter money is for entertainm on Pebble Gets Acquired By Fitbit - Ends Production and Ceases Support Of Its Existing Lineup of Smartwatches (getpebble.com) · · Score: 1

    What about the people who buy the products in stores who are getting screwed as well?

  10. Re:teeny little screens on Netflix Finally Gets Download Option (netflix.com) · · Score: 1

    What hotels do you stay in that put the TV on the desk?

  11. 3 months isn't really a long-term contract for this type of service.

  12. Re:Makes more sense on Verizon Says It Knows You Don't Need Unlimited Data (digitaltrends.com) · · Score: 1

    It's probably not an issue on the network backend. I assume the bottleneck is over the air. Towers have only so much instantaneous capacity.

  13. What a dumb comparison on PC Gaming Is Still Way Too Hard (vice.com) · · Score: 2

    it's just not what I'd call "consumer-friendly." This is why people buy from Apple. It designs everything from the trackpad to the box the computer comes in, which unfolds neatly to reveal everything you need.

    Article is comparing a ready-made system of a collection of parts and claiming the ready-made system is easier. Gee, I wonder why that is. It's like saying "This is why people buy Toyota, so they don't need to assemble a car themselves". And why pick Apple? Why not pick Asus, Dell, HP, Sony, Toshiba, or Lenovo? There are many other companies that sell PCs already assembled.
