Better to use the Windows-Key and the left or right arrow than dragging to the edge if you have multiple screens. This way you can also snap to the side where your screens are (virtually) connected.
The former procedure you refer to is not with a court, but with the European Commission. On substance, I do agree with you, though that is especially bad form to rely so much on views of competitors rather than views of users.
"But in Switzerland, a finance professional who asked Google to remove more than 10 links on his arrest and conviction for financial crimes had his request denied."
Would such a request not already be denied just because Switzerland is not in the European Union?
And by the way, most of the comments here seem to be unhappy about the fact that Google is making these decisions. Guess what, Google doesn't want this either. They fought this tooth and nail up to the highest European Court, but the court decided to force them to remove requests under certain (but not clearly defined) circumstances.

Not a contradiction. They probably ran a regression rather than just correlating pairs of variables. Simply put example to explain the principle: You look at all weddings that cost $1,000, and then check what impact the number of guests has on likelihood of divorce. You then do the same for weddings that cost $10,000. If in both cases you find that the number of guests has a negative effect on the likelihood of divorce, this will be your first result. Now do it in reverse: Look at all weddings with 20 guests and check what impact wedding costs have on the likelihood of divorce. Then look at all weddings with 200 guests and check what impact wedding costs have on the likelihood of divorce. If in both cases you find that the cost for the wedding has a positive effect on the likelihood of divorce, this will be your second result. Hence, no contradiction. In reality, regressions work slightly differently, but in the end you always report as a result the effect that one explanatory variable has on the dependent variable assuming that the other explanatory variables are held constant.
No still, but again. TVs used to be sold using the diagonal given in cm. On the other hand, computer screens were always (?) sold in inches. However, since flat screen TVs have become common, they have been marketed in inch. I don't really understand why - after all, cm are the bigger number.
Incorrect. Google Search on Android can in principle do offline voice recognition (although I am not sure it tries to do so if it is connected to the Internet). You need to download the language you need first, though.
I don't know but it is very convenient when searching for information about the product. If it was called "Wooden Doors" you would have a lot of irrelevant search results. All results for a search for "Quantal Quetzal" will however be very relevant.
And what a weak article. A link to the Chromium issue tracker but not the actual issue, and a link to Reddit but not the actual submission. Are you kidding me?
I assume that this is the same thing as reported a few months ago? If so, then it is not so simple: the attacking website needs to create a pop-under so that the microphone symbol is hidden. And pop-unders are difficult to achieve with Chrome with the popup blocker activated (as is usually the case).
I think it is most likely legit, or such an elaborate hoax that even the Norwegian state television fell for it while producing a pretty long report (linked by the AC responding to my GP post), which I think is very unlikely.
I've listened to a DVD Audio disc and the audio quality is _phenomenal_, especially the crystal-clear treble playing back high notes on a piano, a piccolo or cymbals.
In your mind only. Or it was differently mastered than the CD. CD quality is perfect for human hearing. Higher bitrates and frequencies achieve nothing as you can't hear it anyway. DVD-A or SACD may be better for dogs though. Or bats.
Get a free tunnel from SixXS and install the AICCU programme on your laptop. This should work fine and is easy enough to set up. I used SixXS (for a different purpose) for a few years until I got native IPv6 on my ADSL.
This already works on Windows 7, at least with monitors with the same resolution. You need to have a picture that has exactly the resolution of your monitors combined, and then select "Tile" as the option for the background. I have a part of the Hubble Ultra Deep Field as background picture, with a resolution of 2100x1680, and it spans nicely across my two 1050x1680 screens (they are vertical).
Guess what, they did:::FFFF:111.222.111.222 is IPv6 for 111.222.111.222. But you still need to "fool around" with equipment because there is no way that an IPv4-only device can address an IPv6 device.
Bullshit. I have followed IPv4 exhaustion in detail for the last 5 years. The prediction was always that IPv4 will run out at the global level between 2010 and 2013 (it happened in February 2011), and run out at the regional level in the years after that (it happened in April 2011 in Asia-Pacific and today in Europe-Middle East). So no surprises at all. If you are a European ISP, and you stuck to the rules of RIPE NCC, you now have IPv4 stocks that should satisfy your growth needs for the next three months. After that, you cannot grow your network anymore without resorting to the mess that CGN is.

Better than you as LIDAR works in darkness as well.

Apologies, that was me once in the rented Mustang convertible. And to the grandparent: I did get yelled at - by my wife who was on the passenger seat!

Is the consumer ready to pay 100x the original cost?
Absolutely in my case, at least when it comes to OpenSSL.

This now has a different proof of concept and I get a pop up that asks me to "speak now". Doesn't seem very stealth to me.

I happened to read about this story last night, so here's a few more interesting links:

First I thought it sounded like a hoax promoting a camera or skydiving equipment, but I now think it is legit. Or a very elaborate hoax!
I also have a link to a realtime predicted tide generator which takes about 30 seconds to calculate the information it sends back.
Off-topic but could you share the link to this? I was looking for something like it and couldn't find a good one anywhere.

Kansas City is actually close to the mean center of the U.S. population, which is near Springfield, MO.
