No, I despise flash. All the sites I care about offer H.264 or other native streaming. I have 32GB in my phone, which is enough to store all the music I need for a week, and anything else I can sync with air sharing. You can stream media from the cloud, too. I only need to sync once a week, and my battery goes all day without a charge. My car has a charger if things get drastic. And if you can't afford the $5 to buy Xcode (assuming you're not already a registered developer, who would get it free), I suggest that investing in any smart phone may not be the best use of your money.
Wow, and if Apple had said they had their functionality copied, you may have a point. This is about aesthetics though, not functionality. So, your post is completely irrelevant in this conversation. I'm happy your phone does all that stuff that I've never needed on my iPhone. Congrats! And MMS and copy/paste has been in iOS since version 2, and I don't recall ever paying anything for XCode... so, that's already 25% (3/12) factually inaccurate posting. Nice job!
I assume that like most places, the cables aren't direct lines from A to B, so an accurate judge of distance seems hard to do. Cable length, perhaps... but coiled wires, vertical spans, and other runs of cable would seem to skew the judge of distances based on packet times. Am I wrong? Wouldn't that at least introduce a large margin of error? What about packet buffering?
Agreed. I never said that Facebook was the golden model of privacy. I only meant to imply that if we're not completely outraged about what Facebook does, than something like this does not merit panic or being spread like gossip. The people affected should be notified properly so they can understand the situation, but spreading it as if it were a major security break is disingenuous. It is a break, but does not need to be treated as a meltdown.
So, they got information that sites like Facebook make completely public anyway? I'm sorry, I guess I'm just all out of unwarranted outrage and fear today. Wake me up when they have credit card numbers, SSNs, or something like my mother's maiden name. You know, stuff that can actually be used for something malicious. All they can do now is send me an email with *gasp* my name in it!
Theories can be tested and proven. There is nothing about creationism that is testable. It all relies on "belief" which is not a scientific concept. It has no place being discussed anywhere near real academia.
From what I read, they did up the system bus speed from 100MHz to 200MHz. Even if they didn't add more RAM than the iPhone 4, it should be able to access it twice as fast. They also used a different type of RAM that has lower latency. So, not just an iPhone 4. I'd expect a lot of the same improvements in the iPhone 4.5/5 when it comes out in a few months.
When sites are under load, they 500 or 503. I've never seen a server 404 under load. Plus, this wasn't a case of just hitting F5 to refresh and get a new code. URLs had to be uniquely tampered with. At least read the source article, editors, before posting sensationalist summaries. Sheesh. And according to other links posted in this thread, MS was able to track the "hackers" and ban them. So, it seems their system worked. If anything, perhaps it was a honey pot they put up to try to see what players would be happy to scam their way into getting points just to thin the herd. I'd be more than happy with fewer cheating scum on XBox Live.
Do they mean to collect upon arrest or conviction? I was under the impression people were innocent until proven guilty in the country, even in back-ass Arizona... If you're CONVICTED that is way different than just arrested. If you're convicted, you lose rights anyway, so I'd be less offended. If this is upon arrest, that is a huge civil liberties violation.
According to this article:
http://www.reghardware.com/2011/02/02/wyahoo_mail_windows_phone_7_bug/, MS asked yahoo for a non-standard IMAP implementation. This non-standard implementation is why it has excessive usage. They are getting MS to use the real standard which should fix the problem. So, if that is true, then this is still MS's fault, for again implementing a standard in a non-standard way
I'm pretty sure the 360 has a similar feature that has been there for a while now... why only bash Sony for it? Its not like MS has a history of empowering consumers.
When I called Dell support to have them send me a new power supply for an XPS a friend of mine had, the first rep, honest to god, told me to find a shotgun, aim it at the monitor ans fire. Well, first of all the monitor was working just fine. Second of all, telling that to someone who builds computers was a bad idea. I knew exactly what the bad part was, and was even saving them the diagnosis part. Even with that, they still thought I was wrong, and had us first try replacement CPUs, motherboards, and RAM. After 3 weeks of them telling me what part they were willing to send me, they finally sent a PSU. Guess what? That was the problem! Fixed!
Never, ever again will I buy Dell or suggest to anyone they buy a Dell. I'm sure my experience has cost them thousands of sales, as I frequently build or suggest to clients hardware to purchase. Fuck Dell. Seriously.

I believe you are what they call a sore loser. You don't have fun playing unless you win? If you don't want to play random people who may be better than you, go out and find people you know who would want to play you and not be a teabagger. No one forces you to play random opponents. You can just as easily play people you want to play. And if you only have fun unless you win, well, go play some tic-tac-toe. Don't blame the game companies if you don't know anyone to play with.
If you are watching TV on the box with the hard drive (the master console, so to speak), then you can in face rewind live TV. If you are on one of the other (smaller) boxes, then no. When you are on one of the consoles that does not have a local hard drive, it must signal the master unit to start recording, then you get "switched" to the output stream fed off the master box. When you are on one of the smaller boxes, the stream is not going through the master console and there is no history to rewind with.

Wake me up when they've invented a self-wiping ass. I'd get in line for that.
Is that the plot to Terminator 4?
You mean this: Terminator Salvation (T4)?
No, you didn't miss anything...

Um, I think you mean DAM. DAMN IT!
You have no conception of what nuclear waste it.
Generally there is very little conception happening around nuclear waste...
