I'm guessing you haven't seen the Microsoft Surface. My wife's last laptop was also a convertible that came with a Wacom digitizer. Her current one is still a convertible, but if she wants to draw she uses an external Lenovo USB monitor that has digitizer in it.
Best Buy's Gamer Club Unlocked at $30/2yrs is a much better deal.
You get the same 20% off any "new" not used game. But at Best Buy it's forever as long as it's not used, not within the first two weeks of release like Amazon. This stacks with any sale price, including buy 2 get 1 free deals.
So far Best Buy's free shipping has also gotten everything I've ordered to me in two days.
I still have Prime, but I get all my games from Best Buy.
I'm using the evil Comcast / Xfinity or whatever they are now calling themselves.
My cable card I use in my Tivo costs be -$2.50. That's right, they are crediting my account every month for not using their box. And I only need one card since I have Tivo minis for my other TVs which use the tuners and card in the main unit.
Did this new version get locked down? I have a 3rd gen Kindle and have no problem copying my own books to it over USB.
I've also purchased books from Humble Bundle and Story Bundle. Both sites have Kindle instructions where you give it an ID for your Kindle and the books are uploaded to your Amazon account and downloaded wireless to your Kindle without paying Amazon a dime.
It doesn't always give you steps to solve the crash. But I have seen it tell me a crash was due to a driver which I should update. This was before Windows Update starting handling most driver update duties.
Are you sure there aren't back doors? Notice how there is all this talk about the need to unlock iPhones. But nothing about encrypted hard drives using BitLocker, TrueCrypt, VeraCrypt, etc.
Either it's not a concern as they have a way to decrypt the information. Or it's all a smoke screen where they don't want people to know about it.
Your whole post is a joke right? Work/life balance in a medical field? Doctors not have diversity problems?
Sure a female doctor is more common ran a female programmer. But men still out number women as doctors. Then look at nurses where 99% of them are women.
How does the company pay you for your hours worked if they don't know what hours you worked? I think your company doesn't pay based on what hours are worked, in which case there is no adjustment to be done.
IT is slaver^D^D^D^D&D salary. Work your 40 get paid $X, work 100 hours in crunch, get paid $X. Most young people in the field haven't learned the whole work/life balance yet.
So Continuum on Windows Phone 10? You can't pair a device to take over display duty yet, but if you're working at your desk I'd actually rather just place my phone on a wireless dock that charges it.
You have one life and your time is indeed precious, from which point of view "My choice of employment mostly revolves around the hours I can do given my family commitments" is actually quite a sad statement to make if this really is what you love.
I find it more sad that you rate work, even doing something you love over time with family. Work to live, don't live to work.
That's because there is high demand for "luxury" rentals. If developers could build new housing there would be a point where the demand for "luxury" could stop increasing. When that point is reached moderately priced housing would be constructed, and finally low income housing.
It's all just supply and demand. Everyone wants the red tulips and are willing to for them. After supply reaches the level of demand prices will drop and the supply of blue tulips would increase as the producers shift what they are making to keep demand and maximize profit.
It directly does have San Francisco to blame. There are a whole bunch of "Not in my backyarders" who vote down new high capacity housing projects.
Normally when housing prices spike like they have in San Francisco developers will come in an start building new apartments since they can turn a large profit. But the developers currently can't as any proposed projects keep getting turned down.
So while prices in major cities and towns have generally always gone up. Areas like San Francisco are well above the norm. And this isn't accounting for all the foreign investment from China buying up property as quickly as they can which causes prices to jump when lots of places sell above asking price due to bidding wars.
Have a laptop as your normal computer that you can take with you. When you are at home, connect a cable and you have a better 3d gaming experience without needing to maintain two separate computers.
The 4GB of memory is storage while the Pi just used an SD card. The Chip only has 512MB of RAM.
It's a 1Ghz, single core processor, no on board Ethernet. Video out is composite with adapters for VGA and HDMI. But the HDMI adapter doesn't include audio output.
I'm sure there are some uses for this, but the RPi3 does a lot more.
It was on the first two. And while those models had multiple USB connectors, internally there was a USB hub so everything was running off a single shared port.
The Titan was 1.5 TFlops, while the Titan Black was 1.7 TFlops. The Z is listed at 2.7 TFlops, but it's two chips on a single card while the others single chip.
I'd also like to see their gaming cards get better DP performance, but I'd be very surprised if we actually got the reports 1/4x. The Titan was 1/3x.
In a trial by jury the law does recognize moral acts by way of jury nullification.
Jury nullification occurs in a trial when a jury acquits a defendant, even though the members of the jury may believe that the defendant did the illegal act, yet they don't believe he or she should be punished for it. This may occur when members of the jury disagree with the law the defendant has been charged with breaking, or believe that the law should not be applied in that particular case
It could be possible to replace the finger print reader on the phone, without alerting you. Maybe it would store the first scan it does and then just replays that for any other scan.
This doesn't get around needing to enter a pin/password on a cold boot. But it does break the chain of trust.
Also using a "trusted" keyboard that requires a specific host USB controller that encrypts data back and forth could prevent a keylogger. Is that something you need for your home? Probably not, but there are some cases where something like that would allow a user to take sure a machine wasn't tampered with.
A 32bit OS can address 4GB of memory. Hardware devices overlay memory addresses to allow I/O with the OS, and something like a dedicated graphics card will have its own memory that also takes up addressing space. The hardware wasn't just a graphics card but everything, serial/parallel ports, PCI controller and slots, IDE controller, etc.
There was a fix to allow addressing more than 4GB with 32bit hardware with something called Physical Address Extension (PAE). This was active in Microsoft's server OSes, and it was available in the initial release of consumer XP; however, it was removed in either SP1 or SP2 (can't remember which). The theory was that with servers only certain hardware was ran and those drivers would be certain to support PAE. With a consumer OS lots of random hardware could be ran and a driver that didn't support PAE would bomb out and crash the system if trying to address an address that was outside the 4GB cap.
So before PAE was included there was a hard cap of 4GB of addressable memory with a 32bit CPU that no OS could work around.
The hardware (PCI, IDE, etc) could support any addresses as long as the OS and drivers were supported like PAE on a 32bit OS, or a 64bit OS.
But in the end, you could have 4GB of RAM on a system running Windows XP. But you'd only have 3.25GB of usable memory due to the hardware I/O mapping.
It wasn't just being able to run more than 4GB of RAM. It was being able to "use" all 4GB of your RAM. You used to be capped around 3.25GB due to hardware I/O mapping. If you had more than one video card at the time you could have under 3GB of RAM available.

If you actually have that problem. File a complaint. They give you a free month of prime each time they miss a ship date.

Netflix's original content is license for world wide distribution, so this actually increases the library for everyone in every territory.

The KBs don't contain information about what they are fixing.
It can take days to weeks to months for companies to deploy updates. And releasing exact details of fixes will be handing out exploits.
Sounds like when a Uverse salesman came to my house.
"Hey we just finished running fiber to your house, would you like to switch?".
"What's the max speed your offering?"
"20Mbit down..."
That's when I starting laughing as I closed the door.
Not really, it's not even available yet.

Is the dongle an external one? VMWare and VirtualBox will let you directly access a physical USB, serial port, and parallel port device.
