It's worse than that though because the Serious Organised Crime Agency sounds like a rogue group of criminals; all they need is the strap-line "Because Serious Crime is Serious Business"! And a cat as their logo.... oh wait, they've already got that.
And in the real world BigBigDog: Rararararararararararararrr Marine: Go over there BigBigDog: Rararararararararararararrr Marine: BigDog! Go over there BigBigDog: Rararararararararararararrr Marine: F*k it.
Marine goes and carries BigDog to desired location.
They definitely need a quieter version otherwise it's just not going to work!
How about we stop posting a Raspberry Pi story every goddamn blog post and save the talk for oh... I don't know... when the god damn thing actually ships?
Right... at just the same time as all the inevitable Packt books about it* ship? There won't be time then!!
* "Raspberry Pi CMS", "Raspberry Pi Joomla!", "Raspberry Pi Moodle", etc etc.
The article itself not so much, but I was interested to hear the that Lego Designer software let you upload a design and buy those specific bits... that's fantastic! And they no longer provide that?
All of this is news to me and I'd love to know more!!
They probably have a plan-B; namely, buy Nokia, and either produce own phones or, more likely, leverage the patent portfolio to "encourage" other phone manufacturers to produce Windows phones. Or just extract royalties.
I really hope Nokia think to ship the existing handsets (sans Windows logos) with Android on them. 'cos I'm fairly sure what most people want is a nice looking Android with solid hardware... which is what Nokia do well.
...it showed a http header with 4478****** which is my number.
Luckily it just shows as stars to everyone else. They must be using that same tech that Facebook uses that makes your password appear as stars when you type it. I'm pretty confident you are completely 100% safe!
If I recall correctly, the traditional way to manage WP was by the customer installing it. Then DH introduced one-click-installs to make it easier to install and update, but the customer was still responsible for updating since an automatic update might break their site. And I *believe* (but don't use) there's a way to use a single DH managed instance of WP. This is less flexible - I think you're limited on themes and plugins - but is managed by DH.
In all case except where the customer has manually installed WP themselves, DH always have updates available as soon as they're available *except* where they've discovered problems.... this has occured in the last year where presumably DH testing has discovered a problem, communicated the problem with the Wordpress folks, and then subsequently made the fixed-fix available.
Seriously, if you want to attack DH, just complain about their shared servers often being stupidly over commited, and generally kind of sluggish all the time. I'd agree with that! But from a technical stand-point, they're usually pretty good.
*albeit, it's a Government announcement without, it seems, any thought to how to implement it practically. But never-the-less, things might be looking up!
Even the mere mention of the name of "The Great Paper Fastening One" is considered sacrilege.
Prepare to have a "bob" issued against you... Heathen!!
(for the purposes of drama you can imagine me standing in robes in front of an altar with longish white hair and long beard billowing in the wind, staff held aloft in my left hand, a long boney finger pointing at you from my right hand, and thunder and lighting raging in the background. Obv. I'm not... I'm just slumped in front of my computer in an ill-fitting t-shirt and jeans, but I read somewhere that image is everything. Or something.)
Seamless experiences always win out over time. We saw it when gaming shifted from PCs to consoles, and now the industry is shifting from desktops to mobile devices. Fragmentation is a huge for users.
I think you're right... but for consumers cheap > good. Mass market is always the cheaper product. In the case of consoles, they were - historically - cheaper than buying a PC for just for gaming, particularly decent gaming rigs, albeit I don't doubt ease of use would be a big factor.
I have a calculator that I got around 1984ish (Sharp EL-506P) and that's still running on it's original batteries! That probably says something about how much I use it, but I'm always amazed at the batteries (and the calculator itself for that matter) still working.
In the UK Pay as you Go offer either 500Mb free a month if you top up by at least £10 a month or £1 for 25Mb (valid for a day). I'd rather put £10 on a card and have the device start streaming its position once a minute when I ask it to.
Use GiffGaff (they're on the O2 network). Up to 20MB per day, it costs 20p so that should keep costs down.
When I was 16, I was thinking there has a market for an ultra small car, 1 passenger, if they can get it here for less than $5k or so. Just a town roundabout. Something that could achieve highway speeds but not much higher, like say 90mph, and any trunk space is minimal. When I see high school parking lots throughout the country with these big (sometimes initially expensive) clunkers.

The list is too long to fit here, I think.
To be fair, you didn't really try did you? You only got up to 3!
So, we can detect Higgs but we can't detect multiple typos in the damn summary? Really?
I've just checked... There is no TYPO detector at CERN so that'll explain that problem!

What ever happened to the MS stories?
M... who?

Once the Illuminati kill off 99% of the population, those skies are going to be spectacular!
But surely the Illuminati are to blame?
Formerly "Aliens", they are now beings from the planet [pause for suspense...] "Colin Smith"

Ive said 'I discovered at an early age that all I've ever wanted to do is design'
Bit pretentious talking about himself in the third person though... wonder why he called himself "Ive" though and not "Jonathan"?! ;)

Amazingly, the Raspi is shipped inside a Universe which you can use!
How many do they need? Even if they don't clone it, they've got one! (assuming they did hack it and can actually fly it)
You've reminded me of this sketch: Big Train sketch

To a non tech user, iPad is interchangeable for "Tablet".
If this is true, and if Samsung were ballsy enough, they should market their tablet as the Samsung iPad.
