To add to that the F-16 was the 'boondongle' of its time. It was designed to be a dog fighter and was turned into everything else. At this point in its lifespan the kinks have been worked out. The f-35 in 30 years will be 'good' plane. But it will take 30 years of use to get there.
The f-35 program is performing perfectly. It is funneling tax dollars into corporations to make jobs. Even before they finished the prototype it was clear it is not a better plane than anything we have in inventory. I think at best it will replace the f15 role.
But F-!6 was built to be cheap, and was cheap and remains cheap. The F-35 was supposed to be the same, but will never be able to simply based on already spend R&D cost which raises the price to a magnitude greater than the price of the F-16. Since the R&D cost is already spread across the entire live-time producetion of the F-35 the price won't even go down over time.
This is why private data about EU citizens must be stored in the EU, or the company storing it outside needs to sign a special contract with the EU (which has some extra US law to back it, so it isn't just a normal contract).
That's incorrect. Gold fluctuates pretty wildly with mass hysteria, compete with massive deflation and inflation. Much like bitcoin. Prior to the 20th century, when communication wasn't quite so instant and pervasive, gold did a pretty good job because it was rare for *everyone* to panic more or be more confident all at once.
Actually it was even more unstable in the 19th century. The myth about gold being solid is VERY mythical and only came about long after anyone remembers who it was like with a gold standard.
- Obviously supercooled. - We do not get to see how much it dips with passenger. Hence it very likely only carries its own weight, which may be almost nothing.
This thing is no hover-board, it just looks like one. Levitating superconductors are nothing new. The only thing cool or noteworthy is the clever misdirection by Lexus.
Even if can carry a person, I don't they would want to show the result. The thing has no resistence, I doubt anyone could stay upright on it, or even get both feet on it at the same time, and if they did, it would not look cool and elegant.
Neat idea. But please ditch the old keyboard light. It was cute back in the 90ies, but seriously not anymore. Individually lighted, dimable keys please. If Apple can do it, so can you.
I prefer top lighting, but it doesn't really matter. It is a feature I use only a few times a year.
Superfish was never on the ThinkPads. I agree it reflects poorly on the company moral, but at least they know better than to try anything like that on their holy cash cow.
To add insult to injury, whatever idiot had ordered them got us some new-fangled wide screen monitors. The problem was that while the actual resolution of the monitor was a 4:3 aspect ratio... the actual pixels were flattened so that in its native resolution the screen drew circles as flattened ovals.
Heh 1280x1024. Those were the days. Pretty standard at one time though.
That's because you have no clue. The problems of high-performance, incremental garbage collection was already solved in the 80s and it is ridiculous that there are still ignorants like you around who think that reference counting and incongruent OOP design patterns could replace GC.
It has only been solved in theory, not in practice. In practice garbage collection is still garbage if you need high performance, usually because high performance usually implies low memory usage and consistent high performance.
Please end all of them.. as government accepted and healthcovered cures. You can leave them for people to pay for themselves. Evidence also show placebo works better the more people have to pay for it, so it should improve its efficiency.
Isn't by definition a new law legal (assuming it isn't against a constitution or any higher law)?
Is the only threshold that it would not cause financial harm if that is the case most laws should be illegal as they all cause financial harm to someone.
Because it violates the Treaty on the Functioning of Europe. Treaties take precedence over parliamentary laws. That's why they're so dangerous and shouldn't be negotiated in secret.
Considering most of the members have similar laws and they have never been overturned or even threatned. I am pretty sure it is not in conflict with the treaty. The UK court is just corrupt.
How long until we can actually use it? How long until Chrome, Edge, Firefox, Opera and Safari supports it on all their respective supported platforms?
Considering it used to be Mozilla only project, I think they already have most of it. As for the rest: They will probably never get it for the same reason it was never default available in Firefox: It is not backwards compatible (unless they fixed that sometime the last 5 years).
At that moment, you surely felt better than him, right?
Really, I mean, what's wrong with leaving people to their own harmless opinions, no matter how wrong?
It is not harmless. He is hurting his own economy for one thing. Secondly, if he is performing and is wasting money on useles crap instead of fixing the broken equipment that is causing bad audio, the audience suffers too.

The F-35's wings are too small for the mass of the plane. It can't pull enough G's to black out a pilot.
That is because the wings are too small. It is because the F-35 has too much mass, which is because it tries to do too much (badly).
This is why private data about EU citizens must be stored in the EU, or the company storing it outside needs to sign a special contract with the EU (which has some extra US law to back it, so it isn't just a normal contract).
Yeah, there a laws specifically forbidding this in the EU for a reason.

Are you sure you can break the screen by just applying more force with a single finger?
Points in case:
- Obviously supercooled.
- We do not get to see how much it dips with passenger. Hence it very likely only carries its own weight, which may be almost nothing.

Sorry, I am not clicking on a PDF link that demonstrates a PDF attack.
It is exactly the same. Someone wants to do something stupid and doesn't realize it criples security.

so, you claim you know:
...
int a = 13;
In which register a is residing, supposing we are on an ARM? Or suppose we are in an 68k? Or suppose we are on an x86?
You are just an idiot!
I know it doesn't matter, which apparently is alot more than you do.
Btw, it might not be in any register, or even anywhere in memory.
No, the only voice we hear is the Men's Rights Activist lunatics shouting for 50-50 everything.
Please don't write nonsense like that. Men's Right is a subgroup of Feminism that focus on mens rights. They are not the enemy.

I can see why they'd be less than transparent about it..
Nah, not the NSA. They spy for the one spying organzation bigger than the NSA: Google ;)
No, this is why we use open source, so that things like this doesn't happen. Chromium is just not that opensource friendly.

So Nokia's board, who hired Elop, and the CEOs before Elop, have absolutely no blame in Nokia's downfall?
Of course, but it is polite not to blame the victim even if the victim did start a relationship with a useless CEO/wifebeater.
Putin has invented a new military strategy: Implausible denyability.
Not that new. It also happened in the cold war. Which is what Putin dreams of reigniting.
Apple only charges around 2-3 times more for a cable than the competition.
Yes, but they bought Monster's headphone brand and are now selling "Monster" price and quality headphones..

There is no EU institutions involved anywhere in the story. The human rights court is not an EU court. It has many more members and intervenes less.
