I doubt the energy density of the fluid is anywhere near the same volume that a lithium ion battery displaces. If so, either you're going to have to refill your Tesla ever 50 to 100 miles (or whatever), or build a car with a larger tank to increase range.
Land is cheap, and its trivial to bury large tanks underground. This flow battery technology combined with some flywheel capacitors is really the way to go for buffering energy at the grid level.
:) This is government we're talking about. I'm not missing anything, and I agree with your assessment 100%. If we're all going to have vulnerable backdoors into our hardware, OS, and apps stack, only government can mandate it while royally fucking up the implementations standards!
Like I said, I'm calling the prediction, not justifying it in any way.
Depends on the game and device. For example, the new AppleTV (tvOS) has an imposed limit of 200MB per app. Game developers are supposed leverage ODR . And yes, I know, not likely to be using an AppleTV on an airplane. But the point is that ODR in game development could, in theory, break your gaming stride if an internet connection can't update the dynamic content when needed. But perhaps if you stay in that one level or area, you're fine until an Internet link is established?? I'll leave that up to the game designers to answer if it's doable.
There is no persistent local storage for apps on Apple TV. This means that every app developed for the new Apple TV must be able to store data in iCloud and retrieve it in a way that provides a great customer experience.
Along with the lack of local storage, the maximum size of an Apple TV app is limited to 200MB. Anything beyond this size needs to be packaged and loaded using on-demand resources. Knowing how and when to load new assets while keeping your users engaged is critical to creating a successful app. For information on on-demand resources, see On-Demand Resources Guide.
Your app can download the data it needs into its cache directory. Data downloaded will not be deleted while the app is running. However, the data may be deleted while your app is not running and the Apple TV needs the space. Do not use the entire cache space as this can cause unpredictable results.
What Apple listed as one feature is actually three separate mechanisms, each playing its own part in reducing app size.
The primary mechanism – App Slicing – is the one that does most of the work. Because apps need to run on a variety of devices, from the 3.5-inch iPhone 4 to the 5.5-inch iPhone 6 (or 10-inch iPad, for universal apps), they contain separate assets for each of those devices – most of which your device doesn’t need.
With App Slices, developers tag assets by device, and when you download the app from iTunes, it will only download the assets your device needs. Apple has made this process pretty simple for developers, so it’s likely that many will support it.
On-Demand Resources (ODR) is the second way to reduce app sizes. ArsTechnica gives the example of multi-level games, where you typically only need the level you are playing plus the next few levels up. ODR means you can download the game with the first few levels included. As your play progresses, the app downloads extra levels and purges the levels already completed.
Finally, Bitcode. Instead of uploading pre-compiled binaries, developers upload what Apple calls an “intermediate representation” of the app. The App Store then automatically compiles the app just before downloading. This allows it to automatically implement part of App Slicing even if the developer hasn’t bothered to tag their code, downloading only the 32- or 64-bit code as required.
So what will happen is this: The US Government will mandate all phones be PRISM compliant, or at the least have the master encryption key to the data. Apple, and perhaps Google if I recall, took an engineering route to make it physically impossible to respond to an FBI request. Primarily because Apple doesn't want the liability, and secondly it costs money to staff an entire department of warm bodies to fulfill said requests.
Now comes the fun part. China is basically mandating that the top Silicon Valley CEOs fly to China and agree working with the government at backdoor access to all user accounts and data with regards to its own citizens. The US, as does EU and Australia want something similar. At some point, there will be a treaty among all major nations to mandate a Government API written into all software and cloud based services. This way, each Government can plug right into the application layer and pull data upon request.
No, that's your conclusion, not mine. What I said was, these people work in a capitalistic enterprising industry that's predicated on earning a profit. They work and stake their livelihoods on this paradigm. They do not have a right to earn successes anymore than you have a right to steal the fruits of their labor.
I have no problem with you watching freely available content so long as those involved consented to its availability to you. But when someone creates a product and expect payment in return for consuming said product, to cheat the system is morally wrong.
Yeah! Because theft of other peoples labor is so hip and cool!
Hey asshole, why don't you at least take the time to, you know, actually pay for the product/service? You could always rent the movie later. It's a really neat concept in that the actors, staff, and the industry as a whole earns a profit thus growing it. It also puts food on table and keeps a roof over their family. Don't think you will would ever pay to watch a specific movie anyways? Perhaps then you shouldn't watch it either.
I've seen a lightning strike pit the outer casing of all surface mounted ICs. It looked like someone took a BB gun and shot each one. But in reality, lightning zapped the chip so much that it vaporized with enough pressure to causing pitting. HOLY SHIT!!!
Why would a killer machine seek out dead people? That makes no sense unless they're tasked to stamping out zombies. Besides, killer machines would be seeking the warm-blooded via infrared thermography (live people).
Microsoft should just release a Windows 10 Gaming edition for free and be done with it. For everything else, I've got a Windows 7 home/business PC and a MacBook Pro. I prefer to keep my gaming rig stuff separate.
What are you talking about?! You can bet your ass that the Obama administration and India will develop a coalition of nations to agree on this as treaty binding. This will force Apple and Google and the rest of the software industry to create back-door government APIs into the OS and applications. COUNT ON IT!!!!!
Right, and what if the basic income was just enough to keep me comfortable with a plot of land and a small home? Fuck living in the city, I could sit on my ass all day with an ISP connection delivered via Google balloon. So if 20% unemployed don't ever become unemployed and are living comfortably without contributing back to society, are you ok with that? Keep in mind that could very well happen with AI and robotics taking over more and more of human labor.
Or it's to compete with the other 800 lb gorilla, Google! If they wanted too, they could Crush Apple. Google certainly has the funds to do it, it just lacks leadership and vision. Case in point, the Android platform; it's a mess and needs a genuine philosophical overhaul of the union between the OS and keeping a more unified hardware base. The technical stuff is easy in comparison.
Grayware, also known as PUPs (Potentially Unwanted Programs). It's these programs that may not be malware in of themselves in terms of causing direct damage within their own code, but rather act as a conduit to other forms of malvertisements. For example, Adobe Flash or JRE would be, or rather should be called a form of Grayware.
That's what gets me about reviews in general. Who in the fuck has time to craft and post a review when you've got a busy life with children? That's WORK!. If I was really angry and felt an injustice was done, then I would WORK to write a review. But if everything is going well, why bother to voice an opinion. To me, it truly goes without saying; so I would say nothing.
Well that's my point. The Republican party didn't move so much to the left (as a liberal movement) as they've really embraced a statist elite world view of themselves and the place of others beneath them. Reagan should be turning in his grave now with the ground quaking on a scale of 9.0!
Republican moving further right? What are you talking about? Seriously! You're looking at the wrong axis of the political spectrum. The Republican Party didn't move so much as left or right, but rather more authoritarian in alignment with the current batch of Democrats in office. They've been colluding with each other far more prominently int he last four years it's unreal. It's to both parties benefit to take on the mantle of statism.
Fact is, the Republican Party effectively committed suicide right in front of their grass roots while the Democrat Party is fractured and discombobulated to know its head from its ass. But one thing is for sure, the abject disconnect between those whom we elect and those whom are governed is frighting!!
He has an overall point of the needs vs wants in life. Markets that lean toward the "needs" tend to be rather stable forms of employment. For example, please see agriculture. OTOH, "wants" based markets are risky, yet can be very rewarding and profitable during boom times, yet suck wind during a bust. For example, please see Las Vegas.
A corporate embargo perhaps? Make it so absolutely painful to outsource that the only option is to move corporate HQ to a 3rd world nation. There, they can deal with the local government and their taxation laws. Fuck all them bastards that think they can shop on the cheap while maintaining protection in the US!
I for one do not (anymore). I didn't leave the Republican Party, the Republican Party left me. I am still moderately conservative however with libertarian bent.

I just tend to nuke-and-pave. Yes, it's excessive, but results are guaranteed :)
Or will it be come corrupted, leaving the installer to pull it out piece by piece?

Why H1Bs when you can open an entire branch office in India?
Moderate republicans? You guys exist?
I for one do not (anymore). I didn't leave the Republican Party, the Republican Party left me. I am still moderately conservative however with libertarian bent.
So by that measure, hacking is protected speech too.
I'm sorry, but just like yelling "FIRE" in a theater is forbidden, so too would be crafting a genetically modified bacteria or virus for malice.
About right I suppose. That must have included T&M (time and materials) of the hardware, software, and project time to completion.
