Smart TVs are for stupid people. Smart TVs are stupid for people.
I read 5 euro-asian-centric news papers, British, Indian, Jewish, Muslim, Russian (Pravda is truth for the most part now which is surprising and highly troubling). OK I also read an Australian newspaper but it is exceedingly detached from reality.
I read three south American newspapers one in Brazil is scarily competent and sad to read as they see what is happening worldwide.
I read three US news sources one MSM, one Fox, one anti-fox,.In comparing them I can see the dissonance. It's not pretty. I don't read them for news I read them to know what news is being suppressed in the US.
I watch videos, news, commentary, polemics and others from so many sources that are diverse and contradictory the truth gets clarified or muddled which is why all the other sources are helpful.
I do not need samscum's excrement. I gave them a chance on the first smartphone I've had. I'm an old geek and picked what I thought was best when I had to. They've failed in so many ways while winning the consumer tech war and supplanting Sony they lost their moral/ethical compass and now follow a profitable one. Yes they had a compass but the maintainer died. I miss him.
Samsung will become as hollow as Sony in about the same time frame as Sony did. In 20 years they will be a 3rd rate inbred cretin just like Sony.
Everything is recyclable in a billion year time frame. Every dead species will arise again. How many times has Atlantis sank? How many secrets lost?
Even if we sterilize the planet, life will most likely be found on it later. It's not an optimal solution but no one said this universe is fair just very persistent at trying.
Africa has a long tradition of being enslaved from the Songhay, Arab nations, Europe, America and others. They've never really been left alone.
If that continent had 1500 years of total non-interference starting today I believe they'd have a better chance of gaining their freedom. I have no handwavium to put a barrier to people or goods crossing the border which is a pity.
I believe I saw one that did that and did not have the brown problem but it used a gal chip which most likely did the value change before being sent to a DAC. It was way more expensive than the solution listed which has more features as it was such a niche device. This was 1998-99 and was 350
It's a composite to RGBI to VGA converter.;) http://home.comcast.net/~kkrausnick/c128-vga/ This is pretty nifty and they have a workaround for the intensity problem. Price is now higher for the parts mentioned about 190. One of the companies listed has a dead website, dns problem maybe.
Here's another solution using and RGB to VGA and a resistor network to feed to the I input so that it's an RGBI to VGA converter. I think there's something wrong here but it works so it's not wrong. http://sites.google.com/site/h2obsession/CBM/C128/rgbi-s-video
I'm sure others will rip this to shreds. Google isn't about your security they're about tracking every fucking thing you do. They made Android open so they could get it on more phones. It was not designed with security in mind. Their app was not designed well as a good security design does not fit their track every fucking thing you do paradigm. Since there is an alleged standard for them to live down to Google won't have to design a truly secure app, just one that meets the standard.
Real security is hard. I've seen several 'super secure' systems shattered by a paperclip, a sliver of metal, an ice pick, rubber mallet, soldering iron and in one case a truck.
There is nothing. I would not want to put such a thing into hardware due to the costs of testing the system to ensure it can't be accidentally activated and that if it were to be compromised fixing it carries a hellish logistical cost since something physical has to be engineered, manufactured and replaced. With a software only solution it's much easier to wipe and install.
I believe US systems also have feature reductions in hardware but I don't have any ready example handy.
There is also nothing to prevent a kill switch being planted in the software. With the right radar or other signal the radar and/or other systems could be shutdown. I'd want full access to the source code of whatever software will come with the plane even if it's dumbed down for foreign sales.
Target already does this and has some excellent store branded foods. It's not perfect as some are damn near inedible crap. I'd say that so far I've had about 50/50 good/horrible on buying their store brands. I won't however pay 'too much' where that would be more than 10-20 percent which is about the most I've found there store brands to be priced.
In other areas they could use some work, better quality and something better than I can get at other local stores or online. They're pretty bad when it comes to electronics.
I read everything I need online. The only dead tree items I buy are hardcover books or special edition ebooks and printed comic compilations. I buy both direct from the author if at all possible to support them.
Prof Navrotsky and crew are the red headed step children of US Davis, studying ways to make nuclear energy more efficient because that's mandated by DOE to get fed grants, this allows the important scientists to study all the fluffy bunny green science. I'm not surprised.
All I want is the stuff to be marked as genalt food so I can make an informed choice about buying it or not. It will also allow the vendor of such food to face the publics wrath should something bad happen.
I'd also want genalt foodstuffs to require an environmental impact statement before they could be released in the wild and for impacts outside of the growing area to be considered damage against anothers property and treated like any other property damage.
Brits have become fucking pansy dipshits actually. You're the tail us Americans wag and it's a crying shame you're doing this. British citizens allowing some upstart revolutionaries to dictate terms. What utter wimps. What maroons.Why don't we just make you a state of the union? Eh you emasculated drones.
Yea go ahead and troll me but tell me I'm wrong to my face you cowards.
Thanks, that seems to explain it. I know dosbox handles the DPMI stuff we have without too much pain. I looked and VCPI is a) an abomination and b) has very limited support for specific games in dosbox.
Our illustrious prince of darkness Governor Daniels sold the toll roads to foreign interests because Governor Daniels and every administration since it was made a toll road was too incompetent to make a profit at it.
GD is called the prince of darkness because he implemented daylight savings time to save electric costs money and suck up to shicago businesses yet a study showed it cost us 12 million a year in wasted electricity costs.
GD has been trying to sell of other functions of government. There is now a stiff resistance to such chicanery.
GD however is better than Goldstein who never saw a bribe he didn't like and had sold off about every public service in Indianapolis to crooks. Goldstein's corruption offended his party across the state so much he couldn't win nomination for governor even with 3 million dollars which was vastly larger campaign fund than any other candidate. I recall seeing signs for the democrat governor candidate in yards festooned with signs for republican candidates.

I was a fan of Sony.
I was a fan of Samsung
Why did you abandon me?
But they work just fine if you replace the chip. :-D
Seriously an atmega and some creativity and you have a nice case with spiffy buttons, IRLEDs and a decent battery holder.

One is just as imaginary as the other.
You just can't believe in both at the same time.
All of you who just envisioned God, Jesus, holy ghost slash can thank me later.
It's "an electrochemical cell that can desalinate seawater".
You can thank Aaron Rowe for calling it a battery. I'm sure he plays with his food with his feet.

I perform that level of soldering on a daily basis. I do not appreciate the closed source drivers and will not embrace this.

I mostly despise magazines and have for a very long time the last I recall reading was Nuts and Volts http://www.nutsvolts.com/ and Shotgun news http://www.shotgunnews.com/
Online is more timely and up to date, there's more content and I can participate.

It's government motors they know best, they do it all for you. Don't ask questions, don't speak up or they'll give it to you.
Nothing was hidden, no lie said,
close your mouth our you'll be dead.
What will the citizenry do to them to stop it? Hrmmmm?
to convert Yahoo! into an execrable and depressing mutagenic toxin.
FTFY

You should boot from the USB drive and then scan. Kaspersky has one.
