Because the choice is not 20mpg or a hybrid it is 40mpg or a hybrid. The 2012 Hyundai Elantra does 40mpg and retails for $16k. That is $10k less than a 2012 Prius. The Prius gets the same mpg combined and really only comes out a win if you do tons of stop and go driving. Sure the Elantra is probably a little smaller inside, but I don't need anything bigger.
You mean the one that slandered them? Clarkson staged the out of power incident and made repeated lies about the car. I love Top Gear, but staging such a thing is nuts. It is also why I really prefer the episodes were they make some crazy car, since I know that stuff is faked.
. But it has become very obvious to me over the past 15 years that the people programming Linux, the people designing interfaces for Linux, and the people evangelizing Linux, have absolutely no goddamn fucking clue what a normal desktop user wants, needs, or what will appeal to same.
And thank the FSM for that. I was forced to use an OSX laptop not to long ago and it was a nightmare. The mouse and keyboard default speeds were set at retard slow, it did not support my Model M very well at all. It did not seem to support my extra mouse buttons, find anything was a pain in the ass, its terminal does not support tabs, and I did not bother trying to find out how to enable focus follows mouse which is a must have. Even worse the terminal does not close when you exit it, you have to use the mouse to click the window close button like an ape.
When you have only one factory line and you are making money from Toyota yeah. Telsa will likely make more money by helping toyota build the RAV4 electric than they made on all their Roadsters.
Development for the Model S is done, they have to tool the factory and start cranking them out. At $58k before the subsidies they won't have too much trouble selling them. Their third car should be what most here are waiting for, reasonable priced sedan. If the Model S can do what they claim all we have to do is wait.
That NUMMI factory built the best "GM" small cars there were at the time. The best GM could provide the American small car buyer was a rebadged Toyota, I think that explains how they ended up too big to fail.
Those games are too hard for them to make. Punch the monkey with pygame is a better example. If that takes 38 hours little Timmy needs to be steered towards jobs more suited to his skillset, like ditch digging or collecting welfare checks.
You can say that about anything and it would be just as true. If you are not interested in doing it, you will not do it very well. These kids should find skills they won't mind doing for a third of their adult lives, not something they have to be tricked into.
I watched jericho last night and between the intro crap and the recap of last weeks episode stuff, I was skipping the first 3 minutes or so. I understand the use of that stuff on TVs when it was on that in the dark ages, but this is 2011 we don't need the recap or music.
So your real complaint is lack of audio/video presentation of news via the Internet?
Seems like MSNBC or anyone could provide that. Newshour is available online.
Again, this is more a problem of people for some reason not wanting my money. You can lead a horse to water, but this horse seems to not want to drink.
That is a issue with the companies that own that content, not with the technology behind it. NHL.com is a great example, I thought it could get me hockey games but it only shows out of market. So instead of the NHL getting some of my money, they get none. I hope they like that arrangement.
How does live news lag online? Websites update faster than the local talking head can keep up.
Yeah, just like MPG on car labels is always 0 since you might be driving the car flipped over.
The reasonable congresswoman knows that this is the type of data the providers already have, and regularly track. It is tested in labs and in the field.
Re-encode breaks the MD5 idea. What you really need is a way to find whatever audio watermarks the RIAA will be looking for. Odds are there are not any though, and your MD5 idea is fine.

The Telsa was faster than a stock Elise, it was comparable to the SC model.
Not the same difference, the power plant is far more efficient than your car.
Because they wanted $28k, for something that could not compete with a $10k Kia Rio.

You're right. No light bulbs have been out lawed, only reasonable minimum set. There are even incandescents that meet these limits.

Please don't mention electric cars and Jaguar in the same sentence. Jaguar electrical problems are legendary. Lucas electrical work was a nightmare.

They are still going to make the Model S. Which honestly if I could afford I would buy.
Pygame is nice and easy to use. If you want it to be a game not programming Little Big Planet is something you might want to look into.

He has to eat too. Florian, Rush, Beck and the rest of the professional trolls have to make a living just like everyone else.
Congestion is killing netflix?
That is news to me, I don't even have cable anymore. Looks fine over my 25/25 connection.

I wonder how much bandwidth netflix could save by cutting the credits and intro music off tv shows they stream.

How does live news lag online?
Websites update faster than the local talking head can keep up.
Even for ssh?
I have had no problems using ssh with 500ms of latency. Annoying, but not a real hindrance to getting work done.

It is if you ripped it in low quality to begin with or if you suspect you have pirated material.

Rerip all your CDs, this time to FLAC, since disk is now cheap as hell.
Get rid of all the old mp3s.
