Agreed! I always cringe when I hear someone say they have a "Flat Screen" TV. They think that somehow makes it better than a CRT, but in fact, it tells you NOTHING about the display technology. Is it Plasma, LCD, SXRD, DLP, or maybe something else? Jeez, even early projection sets had a "flat screen".
I like the way that The Guardian reminds people that San Francisco is in America. More Slashdot submitters should take a clue from them, and remind people what obscure things are, or where they are, right in the summary.
Who is doing the assigning of these "points"? Is it Management? Do the managers get assigned points when they call in sick? Who assigns the points then, other managers, or lower level workers?
I have seen this more and more since Trump took office. Trump dismantles EPA's public protections. Local governments agree to pick up the slack. If this is going to be Trump's trend, then why should we be paying as much FEDERAL tax, when it's the STATE or CITY that is giving us all these services.
If you were a student, and you wrote that obfuscator just so you could copy someone else's code, then I would say that you deserve to pass your programming class.
The summary doesn't mention what language the classes are teaching, but I wonder if there really is an unlimited number of variable names. In Microsoft C++, the variable names are limited to 2048 characters.
a color ink printer is simply a device that sits in your house reminding you that you need to pay the manufacturer more money as often as possible.
It's even worse than that. A recent install of a new HP printer for my friend wanted to AUTOMATICALLY purchase replacement ink when it ran low. So now, a child can print out a huge waste of ink and your credit card will be charged WITHOUT YOUR ATTENTION! Boy, is that greedy, or what?
I have a phone with a small bezel on the left/right sides. When I hold my phone, the fleshy part of my hand overlaps the bezel and makes contact with the screen, which the phone interprets as a "touch". I already have my phone in a case, and yet this STILL happens. I would probably find the Samsung edge phones to be completely unusable.
I don't want a bezel-less phone. Only phone designers want a bezel-less phone. I have no idea why. What I *DO* want is increased battery life. They should work on that instead.
How is FTP *MORE* of a pain in the ass to the helpdesk than SFTP? The only thing they have to do is manage password resets. It's just as easy to do that for FTP as it is for SFTP.
The whole point of Radio Shack is that you could just walk in and get a couple of components, and you wouldn't have to WAIT for shipping. Although Digikey is also in the same state as me, it still takes 3 days to deliver using the cheapest shipping method (USPS). I don't know if they even *HAVE* a will call window.
And Duluth... I want electronics stores, I don't want to go skiing.

Luck Me? No, man. Luck *YOU*!
Lucker...
No. Sometimes, it's just business. Nothing Personal.
How about: Tumble-bears
But in 1999, Hollywood movies weren't so bad. That's the year that gave us The Matrix.
I think the original quote was an answer to a question: "What kind of battery can set off a bomb?"
The answer was "a Double-A battery is fine. A Triple-A. A 9-volt battery has a HUGE charge."
OK, so what TSA officer Camille Morris is saying is that even a AA battery is fine for setting off a bomb.
Please, nobody mention that every single cell phone and tablet have 3.7v Li-ion cells in them.
Hmm... is that a single or double Windsor?
We don't need this kind of ventilation.
If they did, the autoinjectors would be deployed by shotgun, and permanently aimed at the patient's face.
Maybe they're hoping for a "too big to fail" bailout.

...and an option button.
I live in an apartment, and I don't have access to my roof, you insensitive clod!

Easy. You schedule an outage.

It sounds like from the summary that the EFF is not suing for DAMAGES, but instead, suing for information, which will be beneficial to all.

If you just had a bomb implanted, you wouldn't be walking through security... They would push you through in a wheelchair.

Do you want bees?
Cause that's how you get bees.
