I got a Nexus One. Glad to get off the BB. I didn't have battery problems, but their bluetooth is terrible. Especially when paired with a plantronics headset. I have 3 headsets. Bought about 1 per year and finally just gave up and went wired. Which I like for the lower radiation anyway. I do wired everything, even home network. The only wireless I give up and completely accept is a cordless phone. (I know wifi and bluetooth are basically the same here)
My black berry lived at least a month after going through the washing machine so I respect them for that.
I agree that if the signal is lost the BB will search your battery away.
So what your saying is that cell phones have been "proven" by science to be safe? I don't think so. Far too many of our conveniences could potentially be unsafe. You have to protect yourself. More information is always better.
I agree somewhat. I think it depends largely on the College you attent. If its a big name place, then they are primarily concerned with keeping their big name and their big donations. Other schools are too stupid to know how the game is played. Those schools actually teach you useful information like the one I attended.
On another note, I am an EE but I write software. I studied software on my own because its my first love. I don't think an EE has any advantage over a software degree.
Software is not as simple as making the hardware go. To many EEs think this way and I spend lots of time fighting with them trying to make sure they understand what 'good' software is. Management too. If it goes to the lab and works, they want to ship it.
I agree. You cant just jump in and write code until you prove that you know what your doing. And you may offer several patched that get rejected because the form of the change is incorrect. If your competent and really want to make a change you will keep at it and eventually get in.
I can't think of a more perfect system. I have done this on several open source projects. Typically though you are not just looking for work. You are looking to get something fixed that no one else seems to care much about. I don't know how it would work for someone just wanting to write code.
If I follow what you mean by redirect, I get those on the google paid links. I don't get them on the regular searched links. At least I didn't last week. I can tell because the paid links get blocked by my company proxy server or whatever they're using.
Why not speech-to-text? Blind people could care less about text-to-speech because they don't care about text in the first place. A blind person should have an audio book from the start. If an audio version is not available, the University should pick a different work for their syllabus. Otherwise, be sued under the ADA.
Therefore, while text-to-speech may make copyright-greedy people unhappy, there is nothing wrong with having a text book for most students and an audio book for blind students. Just not both for both.
1. 0.0 refers to the security level of the area. It has nothing to do with anything here TBH.
2. There was a large fleet presence in a solar system by an alliance trying to take over that solar system from the other alliance. The solar system is on a certain Node. When the other alliance tried to enter the system to fight the alliance there already, in-game, in the real world this means they are also trying to join the node that the solar system is hosted by.
3. The function is not in-game, and is supposed to be done before the servers get shut down for the day so the node can be moved for the next day. Probably you just send an email. obviously a flawed system.
These fights happen in different solar systems all the time. For instance, if they HAD requested the server move, but the enemy had jumped into them and attacked in the neighboring solar system, the node reinforcement would be meaningless. (unless they happened to host all the local solar systems on the same node)
Correction: Typically several star systems are handled by a single server. Note that "single server" does not mean 1 computer, but could be several working together on that 1 star system.
With this new type of thing, if you let CCP know ahead of time where the fight will be, they will assign that star system to just 1 server. The ability to do this is appearantly new. But theoretically, this only helps if the other star systems had a significant number of pilots in them. Relative to the number of people fighting in large fleet battles, and where these usually take place, the single server to star system is not likely to help much. Unless this is a special jumbo server of some sort.
From what I hear, it may add 5-10% more playability.
That actually would have been a much more fair fight if they were able to accomplish it.
The server tends to be broken down in sections. If the enemy is in 'grid 1' and your in 'grid 2', then you jump into 'grid 1', your fleet will load the grid slowly. Those in grid 1 will already be loaded and start picking your guys off one by one. Everyone will be lagged to hell, but the enemy will be shooting (slooooowly) while you will be still loading your display...
It will stop your average teenager from simply copying and distributing the media to all of their friends. Teenagers like to copy and distribute things to all of their friends. However, DRM misses the point that they 'pay' to be able to do so. If they can't do so, often they will not pay.
Anyway, don't we have the same DRM issue with HDCP?
I text while I am driving. Its not a problem really. For me at least because I pay attention. The problem is, not paying attention while driving. Anything that keeps you from paying attention is a problem.
Unfortunately, that video is stupid and will be dismissed by most people. There were 3-4 people in that car and none of them could see her crossing the median? They couldn't even feel her crossing over!? Its not plausible and its not because of texting. Its because of not paying attention. texting != not paying attention.
I don't agree with that. Its not that banks can't make the loans, its more that they are not able or more precisely not willing to assume the risk that AIG assumed with their loans.
Hell, even AIG does not want to assume that level of risk nowadays.
People that look back historically always seem to look at people back then as if they are children. Even when they are full grown adults. Its not like we are more capable then they were. Its not like they are somehow stupid. Like on TV cave men always simply grunt, when their vocal capabilities are vast. No other animal with vocal capabilities simply ignores them. Its un-scientifit. They couldn't develop without use.
So this crack about if there is "space for love?" Come on! He says that as if Love is useless. Again, unscientific.
I am not speaking of the success of the campaign but the organization and leadership of its leaders. Maybe instead of "running a campaign" I should have said "managing a campaign."
And yes, I think if you can't manage a campaign, you are not helping people believe you can manage the White House.
I agree with you. However, since I am a Liberal, I tried to be understanding of the Conservative network Fox. I try not to judge because if Conservatives like it, it couldn't be as transparent as I think it is. But I see it as you described it...
I have heard enough chatter about Linksys and DD-Wrt that it has my respect. My Zywall 2+ does not reset. However, my netgear smart switch is a PITA. And the comcast Motorola cable modem does not grap new IP addresses well at all.

The plaintiffs will probably get a LOT more payout since its not class action.

Sounds a lot like Zimbabwe.
What did China do when they found all the bugs the US government put in the plane we sold them?
Nothing.

Because farming is legal in China. That is why there is a Chinese server meant for those players. Or at least it was in the works.
In eve, most farmers are Russians.
What you call a slashdotting, in Eve-Online is called a "fleet battle."
Is it effectively a DDoS? Only if the servers can't handle it.
That actually would have been a much more fair fight if they were able to accomplish it.

Virtual memory != virtual address space.
I can understand calling a swap file, virtual RAM.
Thank you.

Its illogical. How can you produce a product that attacks things attempting to exploit your holes when you have the ability to patch the holes?
If they sold it, it would be a conflict of interest.
Maybe not your car's generator but definitely being used by bikers on their bicycle generators for powering LED lights.
