That's only true if there's no bottom bezel, which is usually not the case. Otherwise you just end up with the on-screen buttons taking up precious screen real estate, and then a blank strip of glass or plastic where physical or at least capacitive buttons could've been located.
I have it playing a shoutcast stream right at this moment too.
The 2.x version that I'm using is lacking a media library which is really useful when you have hundreds of gigabytes of torrented^W legitimately purchased MP3s on disk. But that storage is now offline so while I don't miss it now, it's certainly a limitation because playlists become unmanageable at that scale.
As a consumer, ebay is great though? The sellers are scared shitless of getting anything other than 5-star reviews and will bend over backwards to secure a good rating.
And companies are definitely buying this stuff. We have a bunch at our offices, not MS though but I'd imagine they cost about as much.
In any case, it's just over a hundred jobs so hardly important overall when we just heard that MS is laying off thousands of employees in other areas, in particular sales. Would be interesting to know what motivated the decision anyway though.
The OP certainly comes off more than a bit homophobic.
The show of course wasn't trying to recruit anyone into the gay army, and really just showed the relationships (and sex) in a positive light. That said, I found the constant feelgood parties and orgies at the expense of plot development quite annoying, and eventually stalled around halfway through S2.
As for the reason it was canceled, it's simple - it must be expensive as fuck to make since they shoot a lot on locations all over the world. I remember seeing somewhere that it costs about as much per episode as GoT, without nearly the audience to justify it.
Maybe you should consider doing an MBA. There's almost no business that starts with revenues greater than total expenses. Even traditional brick and mortar stuff like restaurants often run in the red for months or even years, and you need to survive and grow to reach profitability.
That is not to say that Soundcloud had a... sound idea for monetization, of course.
Arduino became a de-facto standard for a lot of hobby grade and even lower end commercial micros. For example the ESP8266 and ESP32 are now mostly compatible with the IDE and many libraries so you can use these significantly more powerful chips and make singe board IoT stuff within the dummy-friendly environment by gluing together existing libraries for sensors and other stuff.
Proper debugging would be great, because doing it by printing over serial like cavemen isn't that great TBH.
Yeah this would be about as effective as limiting alcohol in the same way. And it's not like the over-18 restriction is particularly effective anyway, most smokers that I know started way before that, probably by 16 already, so this would change pretty much nothing. Good job.
I'm not particularly extroverted but generally easy to get along with so I have some coworker "friends", as in people I could bullshit around at lunch of briefly after work. We'd do an occasional happy-hour or see a movie, but then they quit and I never speak with them, so yeah.
This is starting to become a bit of a problem now at the start of my 30s though as many of my real friends moved or got into relationships and suddenly have no time to hang out. Like not even daily or weekly, sometimes I'm happy if I see them once per month. So at least I'm way ahead of the curve on this!
So what this is telling me is that I need to install coilovers on my suitcase. This way I could adjust the dampening and spring rates to ensure the best response on uneven terrain. I could then even lower it if I wanted, but it's pretty slammed as it is.
That would be a pretty useless course in responsibility because IRL you can wake up at 8:30, brush teeth, skip breakfast, and make it to work for 9. Then slowly continue waking up until 10 over a cup of tea/coffee
Or even better, if working from home, set alarm at 8:59, log on, and go back to sleep.
Yep.Both are close enough that I'd probably make the choice on principle of not giving facebook any money. Still, if you seriously want one now, I'd try both first to see the ergonomics and image quality for yourself.
I was really hyped about the Rift and then the Vive, exactly until the point they announced the EU prices. I might've been willing to jump in as an early adopter but not at almost a grand. If you can, I'd suggest to wait and see what happens.
Nobody knows when the Rift/Vive mk2 will come out, but MS and its partners should have some cheaper headsets with inside-out tracking and comparable video, there's a wireless kit for the Vive, and there might be some options with eye tracking out soon as well. There will also be more and better software at lower prices. In the meantime, you can do what I did and go on a vacation. Or just go outside for once:)
The seats aren't big but not really out of line with what I've seen in coaches or even trains. Sucks for super tall freaks but the fat bastards, who are the majority complaining about this, should just put down the sammich for a while. Fun anecdote: on a recent trip I've watched a fat family cram themselves with various junk food they brought onto the plane while barely fitting into the seats. Nobody else had to snack before they brought the food.
If you want, pony up for first class and get the full regulation-era experience including the pricing.
>The implied assumption in this statement is that there is a fixed amount of wealth in the world, so clearly if some people become richer others must become poorer. Many economists, and even more entrepreneurs, would disagree with that. Wealth is not zero-sum, and can be created (and destroyed) as well as merely redistributed.
That's not implied in that statement unless you really want to strawman it like that. Nobody says that those rich people become so rich by making African dirt farmers poor.
What is pretty clear, however, is that if they shared some of that wealth with the world's poorest, it would make a huge difference to literally billions of people.
That's not true at all, most airplane accidents are very survivable. There are of course those few you see on the news where the plane blows up mid-air or plummets into the ground at mach 2 and they have to count the passengers by the number of teeth found.
But overall, even including serious cases with fire or other extensive damage to the airframe, the survivability rate is almost 80%.
Thankfully, very few people are even among those 80%, because mishaps are so rare, so there's nobody around to talk about it. Just like with hyperloop, which will have way less stuff to fail, and the failure modes are way more forgiving. Like, being stuck for a while.
Of course, everyone is shitty to some degree. But this is exactly what the Russian trolls are using to muddy the waters. Oh so somebody in Ukraine renamed a street? Well RUSSIA INVADED AND OCCUPIED part of the country and is responsible for THOUSANDS DEAD AND MILLIONS DISPLACED. So we're totally even right?
Like, it's not nearly remotely the same. But they'll stick in every discussion about Ukraine/Georgia/Syria and try to confuse the situation. It works so well that in real-life discussions people will claim that Ukraine is governed by literal Nazis, when the closet thing to them, the Right Sector, have exactly one seat in the parliament. Russia's LDPR, headed by this nutjob has 39 seats in Duma, for reference.
Hey, by the way, did you know the Czechs sterilized Roma women without consent?!?
It's of course bad that (very few of) their phones catch fire, but meh.
Unless it is shown that they knew that there was a higher risk of fire and continued regardless, at worst it looks like they tried to make a better phone and messed up something that would've been very difficult to catch in testing as it occurs with very low frequency. Samsung recalled the device and issued refunds or replacements, so I think it was pretty reasonably handled.

I used the original Nomad and still have the Zen in working condition. Its way of navigating the music library with the jog dial is perfectly fine.

'sup!
I haven't used this functionality too much back in the day but apparently I'm only two degrees separated from some two-digit VIPs. Nice!

This is also what I always say before getting kicked out of the bed :(

They should build a submarine tunnel, then.

The difference between airplanes and the hyperloop is that airplanes can be built.
I'm sure the hyperloop can be built too, we just know it won't fly. Hopefully.

The latest phone Atom chips were perfectly competitive with midrange ARM stuff, but I don't think they saw any economic sense continuing this.
And ARM servers were supposed to be huge every year since iPhone made it big, I recon this will happen during the year of the Linux desktop.
Parachutes are totally a thing for smaller planes:

The landing is still pretty harsh and I'm sure gliding down to a landing would be preferable when possible, but it seems to work pretty well.
