Or just drill all the way to the mantle to create your own source of geo-thermal power. Pump water in, out comes steam. And if causes a massive volcanic eruption, you now have a nice place to dispose of all your e-waste. Can't go wrong.
Ya, pretty much. I'm not that mobile of a computer user. There are only a few spots I physically conduct work at. It's been a routine for me in the past seven years.
Depends on your needs and future scalability. You could spend under 10K for a modest Microsoft server (Dell PowerEdge with SharePoint and SQL) with SBS 2011 Premium, but I wouldn't recommend it performance-wise.
The issue isn't so much Windows XP and XP mode (under Windows 7), but vendor software support. That means everything. If the database gets corrupted or needs patched, you may end up being SOL because of EOL. I know it sounds cheesy, but everything IT related is like riding wave; either you stay in front or on the wave, but don't get behind it or else you will be left behind.
Where you using a weak password or something?? Otherwise, can someone please explain how a Skype account can just get "hijacked". Or was it some undocumented hack/exploit (meaning anyone is vulnerable at random).
It's usually a moot point as I ensure to position my laptop in such a way to have the source of light in front of me, and not behind. That, and I typically like working in moderate to low lighting environments anyways. But in the event I encounter some reflection, it usually becomes apparent with one eye and not both. I guess that's why I can tune it out. But I absolutely must have sharp contrast and vibrant colors being displayed.
I can see that a matte screen offers a more practical and utilitarian option for most people; though I like to think I'm disciplined enough to enjoy the benefits of a glossy screen.
The eternal rift among users. Glossy, or matte; that is the question. I don't care for matt screens as they dull the contrast and bleed colors together. I can tune out the glare as it doesn't bother me much.
And where did those fluctuations come from? Either you stay at 0, or you move from 0 to 1. Perhaps the universe is one giant paradox and the loop closed in on itself creating infinity. But even if that were the case, something created the paradox to begin with. So, you still have to answer for the starting "Event".

My 13" MacBook (late 2008 unibody model) had to have its battery replaced once. At first I started to notice that the battery cover wouldn't close all the way flush. Over a period of a few months, I could only get 30 minute of life out of it on a full 100% charge. A few battery utilities said I had 100% life left in it. Obviously something didn't add up. So I swapped the battery and all was well.
As for the old battery pack, it had a slight bulging to it. It would rock back and forth a little when placed flat on the table. That's a physical problem beyond a simple memory effect.
No, you would not be fine. Swallowing these magnets are bad because they have a tendency attract each other via adjacent track of intestine. They pinch together with such force that necrosis occurs. This is bad mmm k.
I've always understood life to have arisen from or near hydrothermal vents. These cells thrived via a process known as chemosynthesis.
I'm sorry, but the idea of valcanos, soup ponds, meteorite, and lightning bolts sound too wacky. Such an environment is also too unstable for delicate life forms to survive IMHO.
When I build a PC, the first thing I look for is a motherboard with the features that I want and need. It's only after to I purchase a CPU based on the current market sweet spot. That of course changes over time. Having the ability to swap out processors also gives an upgrade path as my machine reaches its end of life. Maybe I want to double my cores and nothing else.
With fixed CPU/motherboard units, I can't do any of that. The market segment has now been clearly defined for me. I don't like that. At all.
Same here. I just performed server maintenance this week on about 12 units. They're a mix of Server 2008 and 2008 R2. We use Trend Micro WFB and VIPRE Business. No problems yet *knock on wood*.

PC enthusiast market is dying. Intel plans on having motherboard manufactures solder the CPU directly to the PCB. High end CPU to high end motherboard. Low end CPU to low end motherboard. About the only system you can come close to building on your own in the future will have to be workstation/server class hardware. That means expensive Xeons. God knows what AMD will do. And then there's the whole Windows OS being abandoned as we know it in favor of a tablet OS (Win8).
Serious question. Where does that leave nVidia? The market has been shifting toward mobile low-powered devices for a long time. That, and Intel's integrated video sub-system is butter smooth in 2d, and good enough for 3d. Commodity video hardware is dead. Thank Intel for that. Their high-end will still be niche enterprise market though.
As for the future of gaming? Phones, Tablets, Consoles including newer generations of Apple TV (Pippin reincarnated) , and mini-itx platforms would be my guess.
According to MS KB2829011, the security updates breaks Kaspersky anti-virus in that the license is not valid. Kaspersky also has an endpoint product as well. I have a feeling that MS is purposefully hiding the fact that using Kaspersky is what's itching the bug in ntfs.sys.
"there are 47 percent who are with him, who are dependent upon government, who believe that they are victims, who believe that government has a responsibility to care for them, who believe that they are entitled to health care, to food, to housing, to you name it" and replaced it with "a platform for a smaller government."
Absolutely it's inflammatory. But there is an element of truth to what he said. When you have a nation that vote themselves more stuff at the expense of the productive members of society, that nation is on a paved path to ruin.
I have relatives that voted straight party ticket for Democrats this last election. I asked why. One of them said he really loved Romney and disliked Obama. However, he couldn't afford to lose his "benefits". Truth of the matter is that he's an indentured servant whether he admits to it or not.
Never ask from the government which can so easily take away.
This!!! When parents act like kids themselves, there is no hope. The older a child and teenager gets, the more solidified said behavior becomes in the brain. They grow up, have kids of their own and the cycle repeats. The root causes are systemic. Issues range from single parents to said parents being so busy trying to make ends meet that school becomes the new "day care". Teachers aren't allowed to teach and the educational curriculum is a joke. No, it's worst than a joke. It actually damages the minds of children to actually learn as they get older in life.
America has lost it's core family values to consumerism. Pure and simple. Conservatism is *dead* as a political institution. A lot of people are extremely happy about that. But society can only last so long on hubris, vanity, and narcissism before the whole system implodes. And it all started with the 1960's counterculture. These things take time before it reaches the crescendo like we have today.
September 26, 1960. The debate between JFK and Nixon proves it. Those that listened on the radio though Nixon was the clear winner. Those that watched on TV though JFK won. Handsome good looks and demeanor captured the emotion. But on radio, Nixon was thought to have had more substance and intellect in the debate.
I was about to say that this is the launching speech by which to regulate IT under the Executive branch. Pass a law that stays all IT personnel (devs and support) must have security clearance. Training and certification will be available. And you must renew upon expiration.
Of course, this is all to create more jobs and "tax" the wealthy IT industry all while maintaining national security. Oh, but Facebook will be excluded. Naturally.
Nothing, no matter how cynical surprises me anymore.

Isn't that the job of the District Attorney (DA)?

Yes. Lets throw even more gasoline onto the fire. Great idea. I love it!
I think that was his objective with the idea of a Cloward–Piven strategy in mind. That, or he's just as evil as Saul Alinsky. Perhaps both.

America would probably be better off if they were still here.
Assuming the entire modern world survived the Cold War for that long that is. MAD wasn't just a rule. It was a guarantee!
