Yea, that's great. Glad to see your opinion on here, and where you implied that "everyone" else feels the same way you do.
Except, it seems the majority of humans do use Facebook, but not G+. So it's not their aversion of social networks that's stopping them from using G+, but rather something else.
I wish the mods would stop up-voting anti-social-network posts. I know it's trendy on/. to post that stuff, but it's repetitive, and it offers no real insight on as to why G+ did not pick up, and Facebook remains champion.
Rest assured, from the technical side they could do it very quickly, as you outlined.
The problem is more than likely in market research. Bringing people in, asking them to listen to 50 varieties of car noises and judging them, to find just the "right" one that is pleasant, audible, but not overpowering, and most importantly better than any competitors.
Just like software development for consumers, often it's the UX/UI that is very time consuming and nit-picky, not the actual software itself.
I'm curious if there's any Chinese (either from mainland using Tor or whatever), or those who have left, that can comment accurately on the citizens status with the government. As in, if they don't like their government, or if they are okay with it.
IANAA, but I did take a few astrophysics classes in University. Unfortunately this was years ago, so I don't remember it very well.
What I do remember is to determine whether a planet was alone, and its size and shape, the orbital path was generally used. My professor was actually the one who discovered a few planets orbiting a star by the way the star shifted in position over time.
As for composition, that is generally done spectroscopically. This is just looking at the wavelengths of the light in different spectrum's, as elements produce different wavelengths. From this it's fairly easy to determine composition, though I can't be more detailed than that because I honestly don't remember anything other than "I did it", and if I did it, it can't have been too hard.
I keep seeing things claiming the TSA is violating in the US. If this is true, why has nobody launched a case against them, and brought it all the way to the supreme court?
Typically, in Canada at least, the supreme court rules via logic and the constitution, which would resolve this in a rational way.
The price of the stock is unrelated, but the dividend in relation to the amount of cash apple has and their earnings is very low. But, that's the idea, it's a "token dividend", just to get the ball rolling. Presumably, they will increase the amount in the years to come, assuming they continue to be successful.
As some comments above have pointed out, the media as of late (well, probably always) has taken a really bias view of this Iran vs. US thing, to the point that.. I don't really know what to think.
In my quest to find less bias opinions, I turned to al-jazeera and other arab news sources to view comments from those who refer to Isreal as the "evil zionist regime." While many comments were ludicrous (but perhaps no more ludicrous than pro-US comments on CNN or something), there were many who pointed out that the US and Isreal have been known to carry out assassinations in Iran and other countries with basic impunity.
The question posed was, if Iran assassinated a scientist or politician in the United States, what kind of blow-back would there be? Why is the US/Isreal allowed to carry these out events without any world condemnation?
It's a difficult topic, because as much as I believe the US is going about things in the wrong way, if there's going to be someone who is the "world police" and the global power, I would prefer the US to any other country. Yet, it is clearly shielding the public from the double-standards it holds. Why does nobody else (general public) notice this? It's weird.
All of them? Isn't there some common factor between all cancers, which is damaged DNA causing unregulated growth of more damaged cells? Technically, if we can stop this process, we could cure all 'cancer', unless I misunderstood something.
You know, I'm very curious about this. I've read a lot of articles, including Wikipedia's, about Russia's current voting incidents. While there is always some mention of possible vote tampering, and some outrage, in general it's more-or-less just passed over as "that's how Russia's system is."
You seem to know more about it than others, perhaps you can link to some articles, or enlighten me as to why this kind of blatant anti-democratic is allowed by the Russian people with little protest, and why it's barely talked about in even western sources.
Oh I agree with you completely there. I used to have an nVidia geForce 8800GTS (yes it's old, but it worked great), but I was unable to update my nVidia drivers to the latest. In fact, I had to stick with a 2 year old version (I forget the version # exactly), otherwise I had random blue screens. Recently though, I bought BF3, and it crashed with the old drivers.. so then I was really fucked.
Ended up with ATI radeon to avoid nVidia completely, but like I said originally Catalyst started crashing my computer.. now though, after 3 months of dicking with it, it's working pretty well. But this is indeed very reminiscent of the 2002 shit video driver days.
I haven't heavily used Linux since I was in highschool. What's up with the graphics situation on it? I always hear/see problems with it, and I find it confusing because it's such a fundamental thing
That said, the loss of Catalyst is not a big one.. I recently had to uninstall it on my Win7 machine because it caused constant blue screens.. after analyzing the memory dumps, it was the culprit..
Not to diminish their accomplishment, because this is very cool, but the 140 byte implementation is the base logic, it's not the actual printing or keyboard handling. Maybe that's nitpicking, but technically you can't just copy/paste that code and have the game, so I find the summary misleading.
I'm in Canada, with Rogers, and while they do suck, I have had a family data plan for 1GB (actually I share everything else too) with my wife for 3 years now..
I find it extremely odd that the US does not have this... it's like hearing they don't have wheels, or fire.
Rogers (and Bell) have been abusing their customers since the beginning, this is just another example. I hope the CRTC sticks it to them, and I really hope this becomes very public. Please share this everywhere, so the hatred towards this duopoly in Canada can grow even more.
And yes, I use Rogers, because I literally don't have another choice. And they definitely throttle torrents, during "prime" hours, which is apparently 8am-11pm.

I can't even tell which one of you is being sarcastic at this point. Maybe it's both.
The fact that you use the term "lusers" means I cannot read what you said.

I can't watch an obscure Japanese import cartoon few people know about.
Yea, I can't watch Sailor Moon either..

The site is awful, one of the worst I've ever used. So I don't know what you're talking about.

I cannot. Just says "Connecting to Server.."
Is it slashdotted?

It must be Korgano.
I wonder how many will even get that reference.. slashdot was my best chance of having even 1.

I think they ripped off Star Trek..

How long until the price drop? Maybe I should take bets.

I'm not American.
I'm confused why this is news. Can I buy the parts or something? What does it matter if they're selling the parts.

Then why can't I also give them away? As in, transfer them, to friends, on P2P networks.
