if jar jar doesn't keep you away, if abrams doesn't, then nothing will.
but well. I'm not american so I don't really care.
the gist is though that isn't this incredibly risky for Disney? the government could cut down on the numbers of h1b's any year and then they would be boned.
and the existence of companies like this should surely work toward doing limiting of h1b visas or at least who it is applicable to.
though I suspect the point is that now the entire department IS dependent on h1b visa workers, so they can say that if they don't get them then they're boned.
I'll bet you 100 bucks that the old minesweeper will _run_ on windows 10.
so why are they replacing it? they are replacing it to "guide" you to using the new Microsoft Minesweeper available from their app store. nothing more to it. they just want to "guide" people to making ms accounts and downloading stuff off their appstore. you know the same appstore that was the entire reason for windows 8. still pulling the same fucking trick ms.. same trick..
it's there so that someone who sits on the computer would press it without knowing what it is.
and then they will be enjoying METRO MINESWEEPERRRRR.
they know it's annoying. they know you don't want it popping up there. it's just there that someone clicks on it and then later, sometime later, it will install windows 10 on your machine without asking you again(potentially).
for the record, I haven't noticed seeing the same on 8.1 pro. probably because 8.1 already has metro.
I'd rather have fps listed for fallout 3 or something rather than gflop ratings from Intel on GPU performance(since they've had a habit of lying about what you can actually do with their gpu's since.. well since they started making gpu's really).
on paper their next chip always is better than ewwrytwhing.
but that's not an unintended hack? I mean, the humidity sensor is meant for reading humidity (you're not just using a piece of cloth and two wires), the wattsup is meant for reading electricity use and the rp is meant for having pins to communicate with both of those and to take wifi.
my unintended hack.. using an electronic cigarette 'mod' as a multimeter replacement to read contuinity while soldering a hack charge cable on this laptop when the charging ports middle pin broke up
so how much is the night time electricity in hawaii then? the daytime price alone is meaningless for knowing if it makes sense to store the energy in the battery to be used during the day.
it's just a battery.. I never understood the tesla fanbois who started claiming that we can power everything with the batteries..
making the battery packs for ultra-quick charging of cars makes much more sense (it avoids having to build thicker power lines to the houses, which in most western locales is more expensive than an interim storage at the house).
olympics and football world cup has already gone to the level of "whoever wants to take it and do it can have it" - that doesn't stop the bribes though and coincidentally the countries getting the games lately are places where bribes are normal way of doing business so those countries weren't yelling foul over them.
for example jack warner has now provided info/claims how he got bribed - but he doesn't even think of it as a bribe, just as normal. buying votes or getting his votes bought was normal order of business for him.
or at least it sometimes jumps you into an android apk installation page.
also the ads on the mobile make the mobile slashdot site pretty much unusable. they're so bad. they not only take the whole screens worth every few articles but also run some javascript that makes the browser crawl and jerk. in addition some of the ads are friggin videos.
for the amount of work done in greece at the moment it is a paradise.
not for long of course. or maybe. who knows, they've been dodging the bill for quite some time. if they weren't in eu they would have forefeited the debts already through some revolution or another.
they don't need it to. as long as they can say they did the worlds first of X, they'll do it, even if they don't roll it out even.
you see, that's enough for getting a triple phd in china. even if you just rolled some off the shelf open source software and hacked it into it.
btw all atm's in asia are buggy. there's something buggy about the ui in every single one, like ok button not being ok on the keypad, the languge selection only affecting some screens or some shit like that. that is when they're not crashed into the windows os running them.
well.. globally civil liberties have never been stronger.
in USA they were maybe stronger just for a little while in the '90s, provided that you weren't black - and don't talk about civil liberties in '60s and talk even less about them in early 1900's. like, could you imagine blackwater operating domestically? that's what you fuckers had essentially.
"I don't mix GCC with msvcrt so I am not sure how old / new this is." Why anybody WOULD mix the two and ever expect anything to work, ever, is kind of beyond me. I guess if you have a week to go through everything line-by-line and your project is manageably small enough to do so.
yeah why would you link a windows application against windows ui dll's? maybe to display something using them..
Slashdot Mirror
sure they are.

possibly the best selling microsoft device from last year was running android.
the nokia X series.
microsoft axed it. of course.
microsoft(or nokia) had these featurephones in the pipeline already and they're profitable.
wouldn't matter. there would already be 1000's of downloads of the infected code getting deployed.
you see, these companies use git as distribution method for their sdks.
that same reason is why a commercial company like spotify or whoever would have stuff on github.

I just thought that the disable advertising doesn't work on the mobile site(i got adblock on desktop).
I'd like to think that the slashdot folks would have noticed the malware ads if they appeared in europe.
you know why it's there, right?
it's there so that someone who sits on the computer would press it without knowing what it is.
and then they will be enjoying METRO MINESWEEPERRRRR.

for the record, I haven't noticed seeing the same on 8.1 pro. probably because 8.1 already has metro.
So why is this not built in the devices that need it?
but it is.
I'd rather have fps listed for fallout 3 or something rather than gflop ratings from Intel on GPU performance(since they've had a habit of lying about what you can actually do with their gpu's since.. well since they started making gpu's really).
on paper their next chip always is better than ewwrytwhing.
chances of them finding out some new chemical properties universal to all batteries and announcing them this way: 0.000000001%
chances of the tech being already existing and integrated into most devices that would benefit from it: 99.99999%
they're more like a posse of people trying to sell you a ram packer that will make your 640k function like 5120k
that same wikipedia article says that they were "Invented" in 1971 (in the same sense this stuff was invented 2001).
it's just that 2007 hp announced they had made a "prototype" of sorts using some physical phenomena known since 1960's.
seriously, I've quite taking hp seriously on the subject already due to them talking like they have a fabrication process in place when they don't.
series of goals, contests and rewards is putting public money into it, is it not?
also, universities are companies now with poachable employees it seems. with private funding and all.
actually that would have gotten them around the patent/litigation.
that would have been genius ;D.
that's all nice and all..

how the frig would congress or whoever foots the bill know? the flights are on purpose not registered to the fbi.
on what purpose? well because it's illegal on variety of levels.
though, because of the structure, the fronting companies should be sued by the fcc among other parties.

it's called poaching when you do it from a competitor in business.
why an university is a business then, so that it's considered poaching? I think the case tells more about CMU than about uber.
companies do this all the time. that's what an university is for anyways.

I remember seeing pretty much this same story last week on slashdot!?
is it an update to the story or is it a dupe?
quite a few sections of contract law, of loan regulations, finance regulations, fcc, safety etc are to protect stupid people from stupid things.
but now you're providing the dictators hitman services while they pose as anti american at the same time.
good job!
