Wait so when Dell went private they had to fire all the employees?
That is what you just said. IPO's are a one time cash trick. Companies don't make any more money from wall street after wards unless they spilt the stock or release more shares.
Wall street is a net drain on company resources. The only real advantage is that since your books are open banks are more willing to lend you money.
The only way to determine what a boat is carrying is by boarding. Long range gieger counter might provide a clue if they are installed and functioning correctly. However just looking from afar won't tell you what boat has what inside.
I give it a 50% chance of getting through without ever raising an eye brow. This comes from years of practical on the water experience crossing into and out of the USA. Our border can't keep out drugs do you think it can keep out other things?
Right and who do you respond too when your capital blows up? You won't be able to investigate the remains. Sunk at the bottom of a river in the middle of a nuclear wasteland.
So you will be relying on rumors and maybe Facebook for the crooks to reveal themselves.
Officially everyone will deny deny deny. So you had best be damned sure.
No one nuke going off in such a way won't set off MAD.
Actually you can win a nuclear war in the modern age. Russia or China Can't nuke the USA but North Korea or ISIS(insert group here) can.
With Nukes you don't even have to be up close. a single rich man's yacht can literally motor right up the Chesapeake and detonate a bomb capable of wiping out DC without ever touching american soil and thus not subject to any nuclear scans or customs searches. Another yacht can pull up next to NY or under the golden gate bridge and detonate. How many of our major cities are found next to the ocean?
Think outside the box. Sure if someone were to launch a really big rocket the targeted country could respond. So don't launch a rocket. send something they won't expect. Nukes are Area effect weapons. Like horseshoes getting close counts.
The columbia island Marina can take up to 50' boats so very few people would question a 50-60' boat parking less than a half mile from the Pentagon. Go a little farther up the potomac and you can get the white house, the capital building and the pentagon in one shot no matter the yield nuke you have.
I have always said I don't want to live longer. I want to age slower. Your body changes as it ages. I want I slow down those changes
So you have 20-30 year old body until you get to 40. A 30-40 year old body until age 55. A 40-50 yer old body until age 65. A 50-70 year old body until early 70's and then drop off rapidly until you die. You won't live any longer but you can live better and enjoy being young longer. We age oddly compared to our lifespan. Though it is recent based on medicines. The downside is that women will have an extra 15 years of cramps and potential child bearing years
The Russian market was also being propped up by those external investors. a closed system wouldn't have grown very big to begin with. hence why the Soviet Union couldn't keep up with the USA in military spending the USA had a world Economy and the Soviet union and the Warsaw pack, partially as not even full trade was allowed between them.
The USA didn't become a world trade powerhouse because of it's isolationist policies, but because we traded with just about anybody and sold anything including our own grandparents.
I prefer storage as the term. You store data on the 16 GB and the memory is the run time ram. However I think the cost is the big difference. Apple lies their price points. The $699 price has been the same for how many revisions? They probably just can't get 32gb under that number.
So what? Apps are already including modified interfaces for various resolutions. Why not have one app and trim functionality based on screen size. So your 4" phablet gets one interface, your 7" tablet gets a slightly modified version of that. a 10" tablet and laptop gets another.
Windows 9 is supposedly going to do that. tablets will get metro, but laptops and desktops get the old. There is no reason why you can't push the metro interface all the way down to windows phone resolutions on the same device. attach an external monitor and a bluetooth keyboard and presto you have a standard desktop display.
Right and who pays for all that government? The tax payers do. Smart people want government consolidation that reduces taxes not increases them.
The only good thing about more government is that they spend more time fighting over who does what which slows down everything. Yes slow governments are a good thing.
It is the big issues in the USA. We have something like 500 different sales tax rates paid to just as many different agencies all of which need funding to take our money.
Some things you want separate. Others not so much.
Not really. Install a wifi router, with a modem. I haven't tried plugging a usb modem into a usb port on a dd-wrt box with a custom config might just do it too.
right and where was windows phone, and Android before the iPhone was launched? how about full screen mobile browsers?
Sure there are lots of smart watches out there. All of them are thicker than the Apple watch and none of them thought of implementing NFC payments into the watch. Let alone the astounding watch feature of changeable watch bands.
The iPhone 6 really doesn't have any good competing pieces. However iOS still has one major feature than Android and Window phone lack. with in 3 months of a new OS launch/update 80% of all compatible devices have been upgraded. It takes android a couple of years to get to 25%. iOS is still supported on 3 year old devices. only google nexus android devices are supported any where near that long.
Wouldn't the obesity in the northern hemisphere increase the tilt and wobble? That means it would be colder up north where it tilts away from the sun. Yet this is saying it is colder at the South Pole.
Apple may be showing a complete lack of respect for it's customers but if you are down to 50 megs of hard drive space or less you are screwed anyway. how can you download software patches?
I went 3 years with an iPhone 3G and 3 years with an iPhone 4s. No scratches in the glass. The 3g even survived a 12 foot fall onto concrete. It landed on a corner and the glass was fine. The back had a tiny dent but the glass was fine.
I was hoping the iPhone 6 would be 5s size. I hate big phones. If you can't sit down with the phone in your pocket it is too big.

It is really hard to watch a video faster. 30fps second is about the best we can do. Remember you also have to keep the audio in sync.
Wall street wants profits today not tomorrow. as long as you hit today's numbers your stock goes up.
It doesn't matter if you strip the company of all assets to do it.(in fact that is encouraged). See every stock Carl Icahn has ever talked about.

a drone is any camera enabled RC aircraft.
you don't need camera's on traditional RC aircraft.

Even a macbook won't last long with now a days without care.
True but a chrome book, is all they need. can one install a third party email client on a chrome book? I haven't looked.
Bonus it is already locked down and they can't screw things up.
My really question is this. How do they get viruses? most viruses require a constant high speed connection. without it the virus itself can't do much.
However none of those are officially supported. You can get a warranty on a 4s with iOS 8.

Have you ever surfed the Net Bro?
You should be doing the Trust Ivanova, Trust yourself and shoot everyone else to begin with.
If you trust the net your data will be copied. whether you want it to be or not.
yes but only if you want to see slashdot in beta.
I stay logged in in classic mode just so I never see the beta. I always know when I get logged out as slashdot looks like shit.
You are mistaken. My I devices haven't downloaded the song. Of course I don't use iCloud for music so that helps.
iCloud.com addresses are required for most of iCloud's services. Without iCloud loses a lot of functionality.
Guess what I don't have
