While most of my computers and my iPhone use the cloud email (Imap). My laptop is set to download it pop style. A script to move them and mark them as read is done. This way ihave the best of both worlds when email fails.
REally? Since when? The kids who play MMO's tend to be 14 and above and routinely walk around malls, and their neighborhoods without parents even in the same square mile let alone with supervision.
Parents stop keeping an eye on the travels of their kids as they reach 10-12 years old. Yet they make sure they don't watch scary movies, or play games with the wrong stuff in them, yet they are free to go do that stuff on their own.
Remember parents and kids love double standards that only apply in certain situations.
now include NYC city, all of NJ and Boston in something like that. Major cities can't live without electricity they lock them selves up. They spent a day just trying to clean up the traffic problems in NYC after the 2003 blackout. NYC or Boston without heat or power for three weeks in mid winter would kill thousands easily. Let alone the looting and other damage that would happen.
2003 northeast blackout. Normally power companies can start cutting out failing sections to prevent further damage. However attacking multiplesections at the same time prevents them from doing that well.
There is a CNC knockoff for the iPhone called warfare inc. It is actually fun if limited. The screen is too small so you can't have hot buttons. But unit moving and selection is easy. Personally I would love to play the game on something large like msft surface multi-touch with a bluetooth keyboard so you can have quick keys. To control units and movements. Or at least an on screen keyboard off to the side.
Mice need to be upgraded. Multi point interfaces whether based off of touch or new mice are much better.
depends on the power generation source. If we can make a stable fusion system that fails safe then yes. Pebble bed fission isn't bad. in fact on or two per 1 million people would stabilize the power grid.
The big problem with the power grid is that it is a really simple target. The 2003 blackout of the north east USA, was testament to the fact that one little screw up and the whole thing shuts down in beautiful cascading failures. a targeted set of attacks at key points at the right time of the year could kill millions with only a handful of targets. and I am not talking about destroying any nuclear plant, just the right transmission towers in the right sequence and suddenly the north east of the USA, some 40 million people are without heat and electricity for a month. Target for a second attack for the north west, shortly afterwards, and then rolling blackouts in the south and no one will be able to fix it for a year. 20 maybe 30 bombs around the country and the USA is worthless for the next couple of years.
partial local generation is the only viable long term solution to our future power needs. Big plants will be needed, but small plants will save lives. Even partial solar and wind generation in each region would be enough to help.
how about the asshole who sold the asshole the gas used to gas the kurds with. That would be a Bush too. He was a Vice president at the time too. Why was cheney sure that Iraq had WMD'as. because they were all made in America.
That's only because MSFT already lost massively. this is one of those things that slashdot was divided over. a court loss for MSFT or feeding yet another patent troll.
because the mouse while decent can be made better. easier to use, and with more functions. personally artie with a scroll wheel would be great for standard desktop applications that require multiple zoom and scroll like modern mapping software. Google earth can use some 4 axis's for input. yet a mouse is limited to three at best. x,y and z with a wheel. Gestures help fill in some of the gaps, but inputting gestures on a vertical surface is a pain. using a mouse outside of it's normal 2 axis limit is a pain.
We need more axis's available Just because your mind is limited to a 2D world I much prefer more dimensions. preferable at least 3 and 4 D.
Not sure about him but I was told 2050 for oil reserves 15 years ago. Not ten years. Cold fusion research is random about every 10 years a major break through happens with a media saying that we will have it in another 10 years.
Of course listening to the media is like listening to fox news. you don't get anything useful if your an open minded intelligent person. the rhetoric and misdirection is just too much.
Nope I have never visited facebook.com, or twitter.com ever. not even to look someone else up. I figure that by the time I finally get around to it will be unpopular so I won't have to worry.
Umm markting people are the rats. That's why they always leav(or fired) from failing companies first. It is also why snakes(lawyers) go after rats so often.
If you painted it in thermite it would barely get off the ground. Thermite is to heavy of a mix.
Now a days they don't use that kind of dope mix to make fabrics air tight. Of course anyone who actually pays attention to the world would know that too.
Why don't you pull your head out of your ass. Apple provides an API toallow iTunes to snyc to anything. All palm needed was a plugin. However palm broke their USB speecs, and legal agreements they lied to end users, iTunes and the USB-IF
Instead of following the rules palm stole and lied to every pre owner and your too stupid to see that. Apple constantly changes things and yetstill have a better user Interface than msft who won't change their underwear.
AV shouldn't be nessecary and in nearly all cases the AV software doens't work when confronted with something new, only old. If old bugs are patched properly then AV software is even less effective.
That is the difference between Apple/Linux and Windows. old bugs get patched properly. MSFT just works around them. While quick patches come out for apple linux to deal with the short term problem, the long term holes are properly filled in and smoothed over later.
That is why a patched XP bug made it's way into Vista and 2007.
What's worse is that the carriers can't claim income. In a very expensive neighborhood you can get limited edge connections only. when I say expensive, the average 2,000 square foot home is $700,000 and living next to billionaries isn't uncommon.
A fairly easy to do project and the carriers refuse to put upgraded wireless, and even wired connections there. Odd enough decent connections are less than 10 miles away too.
Int he USA the only way to force the carriers to upgrade their infrastructure will be to tax them on outdated technologies.
Um evil genius. You need a five year old on your board of advisors.
If you put the building full of gold nowhere and tellno one you create a security vulnerablity when you tell guards and the contarctors who install the rest of the security. Once you tell anyone. You already start putting holes in yoursecurity.
IBM tried to keep the hardware closed. it wasn't supposed to be "Open"
if you have to have tactile feedback then how do you use a touchpad that is on every single laptop sold? The touchpad provides no tactile feedback until you click it. Are laptops useless to you too?
the N95 while half way decent, has a horrible user interface, one that is cumbersome, hard to navigate, and can't be done with simple motions. Tiny screens can't have complex menu systems. Tiny screens can't have little icons taking up every usable pixel of screen space. Heck Mobile safari takes up too much screen space, at times. You lose a third of visible viewing area just for the interface.
That is a poor design. The interface is the key. Hand a random stranger an iphone and watch them figure out how to use it in seconds. I have watched some people spends days and weeks and still require help to use their Windows and linux based phones.. Don't underestimate the stupidity of the average person.

start with http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/North_American_ice_storm_of_1998 and realize it took a week to start sending in real supplies, and 4 weeks before the worse of the damaged was bypassed.

So gravity doesn't escape a black hole? Then how does gravity pull you closer to it?

Start with c:\windows. As 95% of all malware hides in there. Bonus it ismost likely pirated anyways.
If you listened to the conspiracy idiots recently you would think we did blow up the moon.

Mine wasn't, but then I understand the difference between hydrogen and helium.
they are on an excel spreadsheet. that means windows. That means security and encryption is beyond the users abilities.
In a true system that file should never have been able to be copied let alone emailed.

2 or 3 thousand.
It is called greed, and it is fully endorsed by everyone who has something they want to protect.
