I have often wondered who's genius idea it was to award the voting machines to a private company. I'm against them myself, but here they are. Now the question is why wasn't the design delegated to MIT or NASA or some other organization that could provide some degree of transparency, exemplary technical expertise, and not have a profit to worry about.
They're copper, and they're quite prone to corrosion.
Exactly the contacts on the cart, 9 out of 10 times, had nothing to do with an NES not reading them it's the internal 72 pin connector, that once replaced provides a user accustomed to fiddling around with carts a very welcomed and joyous experience. Depending on the site you can get the parts for under $10USD.
Potentially, but would programming responsiveness not be an issue in a system just designed to digest data, the IPS might be there but there could be more to it then that.
Yes take 1/3rd of the US population and put them on early warning duties. It sounds as this has some pretty hefty notification requirements to be an effective scheme.
There are 1,313,973,713 people in the PRC.
20.8% (male 145,461,833; female 128,445,739) are 14 years old or younger.
71.4% (male 482,439,115; female 455,960,489) are between 15 and 64 years old.
7.7% (male 48,562,635; female 53,103,902) are over 65 years old.
The population growth rate for 2006 is 0.59%.
The PRC officially recognizes 56 distinct ethnic groups, the largest of which are the Han Chinese, who constitute about 91.9% of the total population.
Large ethnic minorities include the Zhuang (16 million), Manchu (10 million), Hui (9 million), Miao (8 million), Uyghur (7 million), Yi (7 million), Tujia (5.75 million), Mongols (5 million), Tibetans (5 million), Buyei (3 million), and Koreans (2 million).
In the past decade, China's cities expanded at an average rate of 10% annually. The country's urbanization rate increased from 17.4% to 41.8% between 1978 and 2005, a scale unprecedented in human history. 80 to 120 million migrant workers work part-time in the major cities and return home to the countryside periodically with their earnings.
Today, the People's Republic of China has dozens of major cities with one million or more long-term residents, including the three global cities of Beijing, Hong Kong, and Shanghai.
I'm sure they can and they can't. It seems any time there is some sort of institutional effort to establish controls on the content delivered via the internet there are always a myriad of ways to circumvent any given system. The problem with a article like this is, we will all feel very good about ourselves, "See they have the tools! The people can take democracy into their own hands!". But I'm sure Chinese are just like Americans, if it just works, whats the fucking point? If what they connect to walks, talks and acts like the Internet and provides them with useful services. Where is the benefit for them to go out and find and use tools like this at the risk of being labeled as subversive? There are too many more pressing needs in place for some while the more well to do have many diversions to keep them occupied from exercises in futility such as this.
Mac minis integrate 2.5 inch hard disk drives (ATA in the G4 models and SATA in the Intel models), CPUs and other components originally intended for mobile devices, such as laptops, contrary to regular desktop computers which use lower cost, but less compact and power-saving components. These mobile components help lower power consumption: According to data on the Apple web site, first-generation PowerPC Mac minis consume 32 to 85 Watts, while later Intel Core machines consume 23 to 110 Watts. By comparison, a contemporary Mac Pro with quad-core 2.66 GHz processors consumes 171 to 250 Watts.
Okay I got modded troll I can live with that, but still the Europeans didn't send anyone. By most accounts it looks like a voluntary processes regardless of whether the group was well liked back home.
Their leadership came from a religious congregation who had fled a volatile political environment in the East Midlands of England for the relative calm of the Netherlands to preserve their religion. Concerned with losing their cultural identity, the group later arranged with English investors to establish a new colony in North America.
From Wikipedia, Or perhaps even more insightful...
In 1617, discouraged by economic difficulties, the pervasive Dutch influence on their children, and their inability to secure civil autonomy, the congregation voted to emigrate to America. Through the Brewster family's friendship with Sir Edwin Sandys, treasurer of the London Company, the congregation secured two patents authorizing them to settle in the northern part of the company's jurisdiction. Unable to finance the costs of the emigration with their own meager resources, they negotiated a financial agreement with Thomas Weston, a prominent London iron merchant. Fewer than half of the group's members elected to leave Leiden. A small ship, the Speedwell, carried them to Southampton, England, where they were to join another group of Separatists and pick up a second ship. After some delays and disputes, the voyagers regrouped at Plymouth aboard the 180-ton Mayflower. It began its historic voyage on Sept. 16, 1620, with about 102 passengers--fewer than half of them from Leiden.

To top it off, it also taxes the CPU more than alternatives, which is still important for really high bitrate videos.
Which most likely is lack of support for hardware acceleration in the video card drivers. Easily remedied if AMD or Nvidia can be bothered to step away from their Watt eating contests.
Actually, some of their "high-quality" files are quite good
I concur, but also as someone who grew up on various dial up modems for internet access and later on file sharing I have no problem with small videos of questionable quality (such as videos saved from Youtube) when better copies are unattainable or hard to be found, as with the right post processing and Windows Media Player Classic such files can suffice for many types of uses/needs.
Youtube's business model (such as it is) revolves around keeping you coming back to their site to watch the videos
And Firefox relies on the power of customization to offer add ons such as Video Download Helper which allows you to download media on a page with two clicks. I find excellent for saving hard to find music videos on YouTube, reminds me what DVDs to look for when I visit my local independently owned record shop.

Meh. They're perfect bed fellows and we all know it. They both excel at exploiting an ignorant public.

The way storage quality has been nose-diving in the last years, you'll inevitably end up losing data because of bad sectors.
It has? I will? Oh shit! I'm afraid! My precious data?.. Is this Slashdot or fox news?
