Ehh... this is oft-repeated, but Nvidia has made some pretty shitty drivers in the past, too. I haven't had many problems with mine, and I'm running two 280X's in CrossFire and 3 monitors. One of the more complex setups they offer.
The funny thing is, Hillary is the same age as McCaine was when the Democrats were talking about how old he was and we were a heartbeat away from Palin.
I personally would have preferred Palin than Obama, at least she is patriotic. She is also pretty smart, which makes all the smear campaigns of the press pretty funny. But if you prefer a liberal, she obviously isn't the one for you.
See, you can't tip you trolling hand by calling Palin smart...
Privacy wouldn't matter if the country's economy implodes, which is what would have happened under Ron Paul. I'm no huge fan of Obama, but I'm also not dumb enough to think Ron/Rand Paul is the answer to anything but "Which candidate knows nothing about actual economics?"
Yeah, that old doctoring numbers bit... you know, my speedometer doctors numbers, too. It doesn't tell me how fast the axle is turning, it tells me something in miles per hour. They're changing the numbers! Adjusting it for things such as wheel size! It's obviously fake. Just like climate science.
That's all very true. Just like almost everyone can run a race. But very few can be Usain Bolt. There are some people that are just very good at what they do by the vagaries of nature. Anyone can program, most people should get a passing familiarity with our kind of abstract thinking and the ability to generate algorithms to solve problems, but not everyone is going to be a good, or even decent, programmer, regardless of training.
Then you don't actually use an iOS device. They crash, they lock up, they have all the same problems as Androids. You're just upset that it's a different set of workarounds you have to learn. My fiancee has to reset hers periodically because it just stops responding. It won't get the same kind of reception that my Android phone does on the same network. It takes more button presses to do the same things, it's not as fast, and it's much less customizable. There are no widgets, no anything you can do to make it "yours".
iOS works for you. Don't mistake that for believing that it "just works", because nothing Apple makes does that, no matter the hype. I say this as a person that works on OSX daily, and doesn't hate it, but sees it for what it is.
It's not advertising. It's culture. Apple has wormed it's way into being the chic/cool/hip/elite/exclusive thing, and priced high enough to make an obscene profit while still being "affordable" to every schlep with aspirations of being in the 1%. Android can't compete with that market because anyone can make an Android device.
I'm pretty sure he was criticizing Android's security, not Apple's. iOS is just a pain in the ass to use and is very non-customizable. That's annoying to a lot of people, including me.
For only $200, you can get a 16GB Asus ZenFone2 with 2GB of RAM and Android 5. $300 gets you the fast charger, 4GB of RAM and 64GB of internal storage. Both versions come with MicroSD slots, NFC, all the high-end features. I'm more than happy with mine, it gets you near flagship features and performance for half to 1/3rd the price.
Lava lamps work about as efficiently as they can, they use the "waste" heat from an incandescent bulb to do something else. Anything else would just be a simulation...
48V is a common telecoms voltage, may as well work with an existing standard (it's 48V because you don't need an electrician's license to work with low-voltage, defined as under 50V).
No. You are entitled to your own opinion, but you are not entitled to your own facts. We care because they brainwash kids from a young age, so we have to overcome that indoctrination so that people understand reality. We care because young-earthers head up Senate science committees. We care because just being right is not enough, we have to actively combat the people spreading intentional ignorance.
Lots of bad Java programmers put application logic into the GUI thread. It'll optimize fine, but if it's actually doing work there's nothing that will stop freezing of a GUI that's badly programmed. That's as true of C as it is of Java.
ARM v4, v5, v6, v7, v8... ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A... ) all have different extension sets, as well as x86 having it's subset of extensions, and various devices adding on different other devices and such. It's a pretty big set, and there's no end in sight. It's better to let a compiler inquire what extensions a device supports instead of trying to compile for the upteen various current and future OS/architecture combinations, or they can just leave the device to decide what's best for itself.

Single? But there are so many instances of ignorance and lies to choose from.

I'm guessing you'd have preferred Romney? Or McCain? Because... more spending on wars? More cuts to taxes that you won't actually see?

The Red Shift is explainable by Last Thursdayism. Duh.
That's not even the argument. The argument is "God did it, shut up or I'll kill you."
Obama is bad, true.
But every single candidate from the Republican and Libertarian parties are worse. Which is scares the shit out of me.
Mobile Minecraft just got a skinning patch, with In-App Purchasable extra skins. It's moving that way.
The whole point is kinda that it DOES fit. It wouldn't even be a product if it didn't fit, as the circuits and everything else is fairly well known.

And Apple's maps still suck compared to Google's. Where did the Apple users win?

Not on mine. My inverter for my grid-tied, no battery system shows me the DC supply voltage being in the 260V range.
