By "examples of Chinese" citizens, you mean the exact person the US believes was responsible for the crimes they are alleging? I mean she's not some random Chinese citizen that Canada and the US just happen to find at the airport one day.
Yeah Intel can announce all the upcoming designs they want to announce. Will they produce sufficient quantities of chips is the main question consumers have about 10nm chips?
Yeah I'm not sure of what the justification was to create it. The only scenario I can see is that for a short while some systems like ARM had to use it while transitioning to full 64-bit and needed a stopgap where the hardware could handle 64-bit but not all the systems were ready for it.
The way I read the deal is that for $462K, Comcast would bring cable Internet to the town. That's not fiber so it's not an apples to apples comparison. Also the deal with Comcast does not include service which the individual residents will still have to pay. However if enough residents get the fiber service, it will pay for itself unlike the Comcast option where the city makes no money regardless of how many subscribers.
An increase in property taxes would cover the construction cost. But the town would also bring in revenue from selling broadband service and potentially break even, making the project less expensive than Comcast's offer.
"With 59 percent of households taking broadband service, the tax hike would be 29 cents [per $1,000 of assessed home value], similar to that for Comcast," a Recorder article last month said. "But if 72 percent or more of households subscribe to the municipal-owned network, there is no tax impact, because subscriber fees would pay for it."
Well Comcast was offering cable Internet which maxes out at 200Mbs and is typically 20-100 Mbs but it costs more for higher speeds. Fiber on the other hand can get up to 1Gbs. The main advantage of cable in most markets only exists if is already in place. If some area is building new lines, then fiber is cheaper to maintain over time and has clear advantages.
GM problems go way beyond steel tariffs. The tariffs certainly don't help. Part of GM's new plan was to shut down small gasoline car manufacturing in the US because it probably wasn't very profitable and focus on trucks and SUVs. That product line wasn't profitable to GM but is very profitable to Honda and Toyota.
No it means that tariffs won't necessarily make companies move production back to the US. It means that this is an inconvenience to US companies who manufacture overseas. GoPro will set up a 2nd factory in another country that will handle US imports. Their current factory will still make products for other countries. Chances are there that there is no real difference between the two products other than manufacturing site. GoPro probably didn't and will not consider moving those jobs to the US. So who won or lost? China loses a little. US doesn't win or lose.
I don't know of any company that likes having costs unexpectedly go up 20% especially if it is for a tariff. GoPro isn't the only company moving production. Some US manufacturing is moving overseas because their parts coming from China are now 20% higher. However if they manufacture in a country like Vietnam then import the finished food back into the US they get no tariffs. Until the Trump administration starts taxing more countries. This is the problem with tariffs. One of the most likely scenarios is everybody loses.
No they're asking that China ignore some of the shadier dealings of Qualcomm. For those that have been following the case Qualcomm has a questionable way of licensing patents. Normally you pay for a license directly or you buy a product from a licensee that paid for a license. For example if you want an ARM chip you can pay ARM directly and have a chip made by a foundry or you buy a chip from the likes of Samsung, TI, NVidia, etc.
That's not Qualcomm's model. You must pay for chip from a 3rd party AND you have to pay Qualcomm. However Qualcomm paid "rebates" on patents licenses. And Apple did that and Qualcomm paid rebates. Until Apple cooperated in the South Korean investigation against Qualcomm. At which point Qualcomm refused to give Apple any rebates. So Apple stopped paying their Qualcomm's secondary license fees citing breach of contract.
Apple is going in the wrong direction. They should be reducing the price and pushing market share, while pivoting the company towards offering more services.
You mean like every other company? It seems that you are suggesting that Apple do less to distinguish themselves in all markets and be another Dell. How does that work for other companies? Did Kmart win against Walmart by being another Walmart?
How is a 256 bit system not susceptible to a 500 bit quantum computer? Or do you not have the slightest clue that a DWave isn't truly flexible to be considered a real quantum computer? It's either or. Anything else is just your denial
Are you struggling to follow the conversation? Whether it happens to me or not has nothing to do with your reply just now. In fact I told you the service is executed for a specific reason but you seem to have ignored that, written it off as non-vital (presumably from your very intimate knowledge of Windows's inner workings)
What I said specifically and you failed to understand is that Windows 10 Apps run in the background by default without being launched.
"The issue is that these apps are always running in the background, even if you didn't open them, and that will drain battery, bandwidth, and system resources." Please up on what Windows does before you go accuse other people of not knowing what the hell they are talking about because you don't seem to know what you are talking about.
It does nothing of the sort. What you did is called setting up a Strawman Argument. You attempt to distract and legitimise your argument to talking about something completely different. Or do you have a CVE pointing to critical bugs in Microsoft's Store / Licensing system?
Baahahahaha. I linked to an exact article showing how an unnecessary service caused high CPU usage possible slowing down or crashing a Windows system for no reason at all. And you denied it.
If you did, we probably wouldn't be having this conversation.
No the problem is that when you challenge people who seem to have a clue you double down.
Not at all. I installed no such software. But it's running. Who provide assurance to the function? Some paid programmer.
Again you do know that Windows does not allow you to finely control what is installed on your system. By paid programmer are you admitting that you don't actually admin your own systems?
Of course I do, maybe you should actually read my post to the end rather than typing pointless replies. You could have saved yourself an entire paragraph.
Buddy you're the one who tried to mansplain something and utterly failed because I happen to know something about computers.
I would argue that it's not even about specs. Apple doesn't think 5G will be in enough places when it will be rolled out in 2019 to merit making a 5G phone until 2020. They were right about this when 3G and 4G were rolled out.
It's more like when Apple didn't make a 4K capable Apple TV until recently and was behind the other streaming gadgets to move to 4K. Considering that 4K TVs have only recently been cheap enough for the average person and there has not been much 4K content until recently, it probably didn't hurt Apple. One of the major reasons to move to 4K was that Apple could release content through iTunes in 4K. I suspect there was some negotiations that had to occur with the content providers first.
Yes many towers are "planning" to upgrade to 5G eventually but when will 5G be installed? The point of the article is that Apple won't introduce 5G phones until 2020. If many towers are not upgraded in 2019 as many have projected then Apple really isn't losing a lot of ground.
Because AT&T never said that they were bricking satellites. They said they are not launching any new satellites. The ones in orbit will eventually fail but they will not be replaced anymore like they were in the past. So eventually there will now no satellite TV as we know it today.
I asked specifically where the planes that have this technology have been in the last 100 years. You could have answered that lifters have been around but have not been implemented in airplanes which explains EXACTLY why this is news. If this isn't news the first jet engine isn't news. The first supersonic flight isn't news. The first VTOL planes are not news. NASA's X-43 hitting Mach 9.6 isn't news.
Again, if Dwave systems are truly 500 bit, and AES is 256 bit, shouldn't AES be broken by now? SHA256 and lower would be broken. Computer scientists and administrators all over the world would be in a panic
OR
Dwave computers are truly not quantum computers that are flexible enough for all computations.
Also there may be a point to where higher resolutions are not perceptible to the human eye. I think 8K is hitting the limit to where humans can see the difference. Unless TVs get wall-sized that is.
No what is causing this problem is the near monopoly that cable companies have in markets and areas. I get to choose from 2 of the 5 cable offerings in my town. Unluckily they are the 2 crappiest options.
Not only did I ask exactly that, I also eluded that the second half of your sentence is false.
Base on what? Is it based on your presumption that since it doesn't happen to you, it must be false?
Oh noes, a bug!
Which directly answered your question about why I don't like processes running in the background that launch themselves.
So back to the original question, why are you afraid of the number of processes you are running, and doubly so if you don't understand them and they are part of the default system configuration anyway?
You are asserting that I don't know what Store does. I know what the Store does. I know what Calculator does. They are not integral to keeping Windows running. Service Host can be inscrutable as to what is running but Calculator is not.
OMG My Linux box has a process called "deferwq" Quick we need to stop it because I don't know what it does nor did I explicitly start it! It's a quite a silly approach to managing the system.
Red Herring. With Linux there is more assurance that all processes have a function and that it should be running especially if you installed all the software manually. But we are talking about Windows. And by managing a system, you don't monitor what is running on your Windows system? That is a silly way not to manage a system. Considering Windows is the platform with the most worms, trojans, viruses, etc, I'd think it would be foolish for you not to monitor it.

You do know that Foxconn makes devices for almost every manufacturer right? That means your ire covers Dell, Lenovo, HP, LG, etc.
Did we have self-powered lifters 100 years ago? You either are lying or in denial.
