If they go the route of chipped HDMi cables going forward and check outputs based on enforced regulations. There is still time to do this, not that I'd be a fan.
GM made wild promises about the Volt that it didn't follow thru on and now they're just making noise to try to convince investors to stick around. Until they do something that matters in this space, it's hard to take these types of statements seriously.
When I worked in a NOC for a major bank, we had full hand scanners, explosives sniffers and video records to endure when we clocked in. That was fifteen years ago. Just be happy you have a job.
This will last until the next suicide happens as a result of overlooked cyber-bullying there, with a lawsuit asking why the consultants missed it. The District will put the burden on the consultants, penalties will force them into bankruptcy and no one will try it ever again.
Or - the consultants will over react, causing too many false alarms and lawsuits for false accusations, with the same effect.
Into the hands of lobbyists, who paid for legislators to make it a pay-to-play activity.
I'm working on a patented drinking fountain water filter that will be required by law for use in all public schools, hospitals and train stations - it will also be a law that they must be replaced every 30 days with a recycling fee paid to franchised non-profit companies staffed only by the homeless.
Reminds me of the studies that show how some people's presence can make machines work properly, while other's makes them malfunction.
I was a mechanic for years and got tired of joking how I could fix a car just by showing up. In contrast, my X would make things go haywire. Whenever she went out shopping, her friends would always get in another checkout line or make her last since they knew something would go wrong with the register once she got near it.
5% of a 4TB HDD that sells for USD$200 is roughly 200 GB = $10.
1.5% of a 4TB HDD that sells for USD$29,000 is roughly 60 GB = $425.
I can guess who is pushing these casual comparisons, but seriously - when price parity kicks in, let me know. In the mean time and as a developer, I have no use for SSD in my desktop system.
Because by the time this happens, I'll be on a beach in Panama, with no electricity, no internet and no need for either. Just me, a case of rum, a nice cool breeze and the sound of waves gently lapping at my feet. Verizon & FB can suck it.
The last time this popped up, there was a near immediate retraction. Only NASA knows the definition of interstellar they are using using to quantify their claim, so we're obligated to take their word for it.
I suspect they were simply waiting for a slow news day so they could slot some publicity in. That's right..I went there.
'they' are both just brands. Remember, it's always the singer, not the song. If you try to break down the 'they' to individuals, the Apple 'they' isn't the same anchored-over-time group attached to that brand as the 'they' that is attached to the Stone's brand.
If you simply want to state that the marketplace brings similar tasks and tension, fine, but then it's about branding, fans and being able to maintain what was good in the first place with what's worth adding, and over time, all brands have that in common. Of course an article written on that level, without major attention-getting keywords such as 'Apple' or 'Rolling Stones' wouldn't stand much of a chance when it comes to competing for it's own brand-like attention in today's media, so it is easy to see why such a comparison is floated.
"Michael Dell wants to focus the majority of the company’s efforts on services, essentially remaking it into a tech firm more along the lines of IBM."
Problem is, IBM committed to that approach years ago, in a different world. I'm not sure that would work today, given how long traction would take and how things will continue to evolve in the mean time. You can't commoditize this kind of thing, after all.

new iPhone owner's should get their money back. This was supposed to be updated tech that resisted decade's old spoofing.

Can't find water, can't find methane, can't find their DICP - no wonder they have a hard time finding funding :)

MS whiffed when they put balless in charge of anything. He can stop blaming others...
I'm living large with XML'd e-pubs, but I do use a bit of HTML5 storage in a few of my apps.
:) mod up!

Talk about your slow news day...

A sphere has an inside surface and and outside surface - pick one :)
'open source' had it's chance. If something out of Brazil succeeds to the assumption, it deserves a new name.
A 4TB hdd can be had for roughly USD$200, or less. A 4TB SDD is USD$29k.
So can we please stop comparing SSDs to platter-drives, please? Thanks.
Spin 'em if you got 'em.

More like corporate suicide!
Right - she said what the govt. lawyers told her. She didn't say what her personal feelings are, which is only fair from a corporate mouthpiece.

Does your old fp reader scan sub-epidermal layers @ 500 DPI like Apple's sensor as well?
Didn't think so.
