Canned air? I use 120 psi from an air compressor. I wonder if the fan is rated for 10,000 rpm.
I hope you have a filter in the line. Otherwise you could be blowing oil or moisture from the compressor into your devices! But yeah, it's great listening to how quickly those fans spin.
I don't know about Israel, but, between the UK and the USA, the usual colors of the gasolene and diesel filler nozzles are reversed. In the USA, diesel is usally green and gasolene black. In the UK, diesel is black and gasolene green.
Wrong, WiFi calling on T-Mo still uses your minutes.
Now it does, but some years ago, there was an option ($10 or $20/per month -- it changed) to make the calls made through Wifi calling free and unrestricted. There are probably some customers with this option grandfathered in.
However, you are right about international use. It's great for avoiding roaming charges.
You do realize that bank bailout was majority-backed by Democrats and majority-opposed by Republicans, right?
Please show where I mentioned either political party above as the cause of or saviour from income redistribution. That's right, you can't. Dipshit.
As for bailing out the banks, we would all be in a much worse postion had the banks not been bailed out. The issue is the generous terms on which they were bailed out and the facts that almost no one has been prosecuted, the big banks have been allowed to get bigger and no meaningful regulation to prevent a re-occurance has been put in place. And yes, all of this happened under the Obama administration. Do you really think it would have been better under a Republican administration?
And your solution is what? Less government. Yeah, that's working well in Somalia and other failed states.
Actually, it's crazy that we are even talking about redistribution. We should be talking about leveling the playing field -- taking away the redistribution that is already going on -- and benefitting the already wealthy.
This may come as a surprise, but plenty of people (even those in lower income brackets) prefer to not have the government set wages and redistribute income to a great extent... even if it means that some other fellow might be making way more than themselves.
I am sure that you are right, but I suspect that the same people who would not support redistribution only do so because they don't understand how large numbers of wealthy benefit from the way thet they and other wealthy people have stacked the decks in their favor.
The bank bailout, for example, effected a massive redistribution of wealth towards wealthy bankers. It's ongoing, with large banks benefitting from very low cost loans from the Fed, which they use to buy government bonds, which return a higher interest rate.
Governments should be forbidden from using non-Free software. Go ahead and get your company into whatever vendor lock-in you want, but public data should never be subjected to it.
No. This is wrong. Governments should be required to use open standards. Thus allowing open and closed source offerings to compete.
Furthermore, if it turns out that a supplier claimed compliance with an open standard but did not deliver this, there should be serious penalties levied against the supplier (and not just a slap on the wrist that the supplier will see as merely "cost of doing business"). The penalties could include requiring the supplier to make their version of the standard open to all.
There is another surprise: that anyone ever believed that a *significant amount of the calculations.* would run on the server. Seriously, it doesn't pass the sniff test that they would offload calculations from the clients onto their own servers.
However here in Australia if your tax is simple to moderately complicated you can easily file it using a government program called e-tax. Been around for years (and looks like a Windows 3.1 program).
In the UK, the tax system is setup so that for most people with simple incomes (single job, no offshore bank accounts, and perhaps a mortgage) will have had the correct amount of tax deducted (or credited) at source and they don't need to file a return.
The more people who start bypassing the moldy old POTS network altogether and communicate IP to IP, the better off we'll all be..... Sadly they won't be able to communicate their existence to the rest of the world due to the system's complete lack of interoperability.
And be replaced by what? The closed-source, proprietary protocol Skype?
Imagine that POTS is shut down and all that is left is a bunch of proprietary VOIP services, none of which interoperate with each other. Yeah, that's really a step forward!
The city that collects the fines sets the length of the yellow light. Now do you see the problem?
In CA, state law defines minimum times for yellow based on the speed limit in force. Some cities have fallen foul of this and had to refund tickets when it was discovered that the length of the yellow light was too short.
What could possibly be in my medical records that they don't want me to know about?
Probably some information that would enable you to sue the doctor. Either that, or it would be like drawing back the curtain and revealing the wizard -- you would realize how often doctors don't really know what the root cause of your medical problem is.
I wanted to virtualize my servers, so I need to have KVM's network adapter in bridge mode.
After following the KVM instructions, which had me manually changing many kernel settings, and a lot of trial and error for several days, I threw my hands up and went back to VirtualBox.
I can't comment on other distros, but setting up a bridge under Centos is very easy. virt-manager even has support built-in to perform this task. You don't need to change anything kernel related (the scripts that manage the interfaces also ensure the bridge module is loaded).
Except when it doesn't. SMTPTLS is increasingly being used for encrypted transport of email. Unfortunately, the lack of certificate checking makes it vulnerable to man-in-the-middle attacks.
All of which suggests that little rational or critical thinking goes into a decision to use Azure. Microsoft has allowed its infrastructure to fail on multiple occasions through of a lack of competence, yet they still have customers. Why?

Service providers would like to be able to sell subsidised phones for use with pre-paid plans, knowing that the subsidy will not be lost because the phone is used on a competitor's service.
in the UK at least I can claim loss of earnings from the litigant when I win the case
Is that true in general, or only in specific circumstances?
It's usually the case that the loser pays the winner's costs,
There is another level of sublety about the concept of the "loser". Let's say that I threaten to sue someone who agrees that they were at fault and owes me money. Let's say that they offer to compensate me in the amount of 50,000 UK pounds (and this sum is put in escrow with the court). I don't think that the offer is sufficient and sue. Now, if I am awarded an amount of 50,000 pounds or less, *I* am the loser, because I could have simply accepted the existing offer. If I am awarded an amount that is greater than 50,000 pounds, I am the winner.
In any case, an award of costs is subject to the judge's discretion.
I stopped buying from WD because: 1. Advanced format -- who wants to deal with a drive that lies about its layout? 2. I bought a 1TB drive that the S.M.A.R.T. data shows is perfect, yet would always give I/O errors after I had written 900GB of data (and no, it wasn't my misunderstanding of disk space measurements).
I was having good luck with Samsung and HGST, but now we really only have 2 manufacturers, who are (I believe) intent on gouging their customers after the tsunami and until they go out of business because SSDs have made them obsolete.
The judiciary isn't going to go with OOo anytime soon (they're still slavishly tied to WordPerfect!)... ....
For even moderately complex documents, the alternatives, including Google Docs (a/k/a/ Drive), QuickOffice, etc., do not create or properly work with fully Word compatible documents, and hence I cannot use them in my profession. Office 2011 is a cost of doing business for me.
So there are no formattting issues when a docoument is created in Word and opened in WordPerfect?
Another problem with using "plus addressing" as I describe above is that I have come across legitimate companies who use a website for unsubscribe requests, but their website will not process the address I used.
I (not the submittor) frequently use +@. It is quite clear that at least one site where I registered has let their subscriber list escape. But what is funny is that the scripts or programs that the spammers use frequently don't process the "+" addresses properly. So my mailserver rejects lots of emails that are sent to non-existent addresses in the form: @.

Especially if it comes with a matte display!

Surely a short term capacilty expansion can be done with Amazon Web Services (or equvalent service).

They don't? Or perhaps the driver had turned off the electronics.
