No professional thinks cloud based offerings are acceptable.
The only people who think the cloud based offerings are acceptable are Google employees that don't have a choice, business units working in the 'cloud' departments, and silly middle managers who don't know what they are doing.
On the ground, everyone still uses real applications. No one who 'buys adobe products' uses Adobe's cloud crap. No one uses Microsoft 365 INCLUDING THEIR PARTNERS WHO HELP THEM DEVELOP FOR IT.
You've been buying into the advertising too much, reality is far different.
Awesome, and 253 of those processors will be in constant wait states because they memory and io bus will be too bottlenecked for them to actually get used. I guess you really will see awesome power savings...
With proper coprocessors theres no reason you can't and in fact it is already done on the low end with iMovie. No, its not Adobe Premiere and unlimited tracks but its already enough for people to 'play' with.
Video processing is a well solved issue and doesn't need raw CPU power anymore, it just needs the right coprocessors who can do the same work on the static generated from your fingers moving on the screen they require so little energy.
What defaults would those be? The having to hold down one extra keyboard button to run unsigned code from a random unknown location on the Internet?
Do you really think thats a bad thing? If so you don't really understand the dangers of the Internet even a little bit when taken in the context of non-computer dorks such as yourself. Most people have better things to do than know how to spot malicious code.
Shrug, I push the retina display, a cinema display. and 2 additional 1680x1050 monitors without problems Thats 12.3MP, over twice the 5MP of the retina display itself. Current high end games are an issue with 4kx1650 resolution I admit, but then I just drop down to any single display and things are fine for most everything I deal with. Call of Duty4 (not the newest I know) gives me 80FPS, not really anything to bitch about is it? Of course, it is a laptop with battery life of about 5-6 hours when I'm coding on it, so I don't bitch about not getting 100FPS.
Could it be more powerful? Yes. Is it a low performance slouch? Not even close.
I pay the Apple premium for good quality hardware that is capable of running OSX AND Windows. I prefer OSX, but I wouldn't give up Windows support. I could care less about Linux. I have plenty of hardware that will be fine for running it for years to come, though I run FreeBSD instead. The server market isn't going anywhere so finding hardware that can run generic x86 code will remain trivial for years.
Saying no one buys Apple for hardware just shows your ignorance. If you're going to buy 'top of the line' from anyone, you buy Apple at a hardware refresh and you'll get hardware at below market price for the first month or two, after that it goes the other direction. Top it off with well designed systems... not hardware thrown together that mostly works... they are well designed complete systems. Everything in them works well together, and the instant something doesn't, they replace it without question almost universally, many times even out of warranty in my experience and through reports of others.
No one buys Apple 'to get some generic x86 hardware', but that doesn't mean its just for OS X either.
Even in America assimilation happens at 1st generation born in country anyway, it doesn't get much faster than that with forced primary languages so its not really worth the effort.
Its not a serious problem, its not even a minor problem. The only time its an issue is in emergency situations and criminal events when communications are time sensitive and unexpected. Someone going to vote almost certainly has a translator that can go with them to get them what they need. It just sucks if you get pulled over without your translator for some reason or end up in the back of an EMS vehicle due to an accident.
The children of these people all speak english perfectly.
Amazing is an adjective, so when you combine it with an appropriate matching word, it may be perfectly suited. For instance using it directly preceeding several words of profanity would be appropriate I think.
Not really, they don't make their own baseband chips, they buy from someone else who makes them and has been part of that R&D effort over the last 20 years.
I hear what you're trying to say, but its just not true since they mostly use Qualcomm's chips.
While I don't agree with patents like Apple is using in general, I'm still kind of with Apple on the Samsung thing as it was CLEARLY intended to look like an iDevice in its original form.
Apple's patent shit does piss me off in that I realize one of the reasons I dislike Android's 'feel' is because Apple patented the bounce back UI feeling thingy at the end of scrolling. When I tried the Nexus 7 I found it extremely frustrating as I was used to the iOS feel of scrolling and thought it was really retarded of Android to not do the same... until I found out they couldn't.
That's what Apple did to me with this unannounced change.
You're a shitty developer then. I was using the new maps app for months before it went live, it was hardly unannounced if you bothered to test your apps on the betas.
Regardless of which you think is better, I'd be right beside Steve Jobs on this one.
One of Googles board members was sitting on Apples board... watched the iPhone come to market and take it by storm and then decided to go into direct competition with it having inside knowledge of the entire plan.
I'm not arguing who is better or anything else, simply that if I was in Jobs's place, I'd take that shit personal and like a knife in the back as well, with repeated stabbings. If I thought I had a chance I'd try to wipe Google out for that shit as well.
I don't think they'll really stop them, the two products fill different rolls, but I completely understand that need for Jobs to beat the shit out of Google, what they did was pretty fucking douchebagish.
Exposing uses to Latitude is pretty much a 'go fuck yourself' response from Apple any anyone else with half a brain. Its not exactly considered a 'fair' offer, so its as good as saying no.
but enables developers to develop for a single platform rather than multiple platforms as with iOS and OSX
Bullshit.
The language or libraries aren't why iOS and OSX apps are different, the target environment is different, and its different on a surface tablet as well. The same APIs are there for the most part in both, but you have to behave and do things differently in a touch based UI rather than a keyboard/mouse based UI. The iOS and Android solution? Target a tablet or a desktop, not both. Microsoft solution? EVERYONE DOES BOTH, like it or not, poorly!
Wrong. SD card storage can not be accessed the same way as internal storage. You don't run apps from a removable drive, so its not $10 for the same thing. Try again.
Then to put it bluntly, buy a damn Android device and stop bitching. If you don't want Windows apps then you won't be buying a Windows tablet and you won't be bitching about the space those apps consume.
A Raspberry Pi would also last about 3 hot/cold cycles before it failed due to mechanical stresses of heating/cooling plus vibration under the hood. It also doesn't have a snowballs chance in hell of being able to deal with the voltage spikes floating around under there.
Processing power isn't what makes an ECU expensive. Its not a PC with shitty lowest common denominator parts. ECUs must be somewhat hardy or they'll fail over night.
Just because you worked at a shop doesn't mean you know how it works, I know plenty of 'cell phone' or 'pager' repair guys that think they know all about RF that don't know jack shit. You've done nothing but prove you're the same.
Congratulations, you're a douche. You are intentionally avoiding paying your fair share and I'll bet my bottom dollar that you still think you're entitled to of your states services.
To follow that up, just because the vendor doesn't collect taxes from you doesn't mean you don't owe them. You are still liable for the proper tax amount and by not paying it you are committing tax evasion.
Stop being such a freeloading fuck and pay your fair share or stop taking advantage of government funded services like roads, schools, health inspectors to keep you from dying from the food you ate at Waffle House last week.
I really can't stand free loading assholes like you.
The founding fathers, rightfully, understood that you are not competent to select the president. Thats as true to day as it was then and your post shows it.
The fact that people are more concerned with the presidential elections than the senate and house or representatives just further proves the point.
You don't even understand how your government works, let alone are you qualified to say who should run it.
No ordinary person who heres the full story about Megaupload is going to be on Megaupload's side.
Hate to burst your bubble, but the guy made a living breaking and skirting the law.
For ever legitimate file on megaupload there were 20 that weren't legitimate and everyone in the business knew it.
If he was even a little bit about running a legitimate business he wouldn't be encrypting everything. This really is an instance of looking guilty because you are guilty.

No mac owner has called it Mac OS in years.
2 cores have 1 interconnect. 4 cores have 6. 8 have 26.
See the problem? You don't get linear results by adding more cores. Support circuitry is essentially exponential.
Next problem: Most things aren't easy to make multithreaded and locking contention makes gains with less as you add cores. More non linear gains.

Or you know, changing a couple of registry keys ...
Given the defaults on Mountain Lion
What defaults would those be? The having to hold down one extra keyboard button to run unsigned code from a random unknown location on the Internet?

Lets not forget, OSX has supported multiple architectures since day one. It was released for PPC but was running on x86 from the start.
They know how to deal with multiple architectures in the kernel just fine, including endiness issues already well ironed out..

And Microsoft bundling IE with Windows had absolutely jack shit to do with the reasons the DOJ went after them.
They were preventing OTHER browsers from being bundled with Windows, and thats what the problem was.
It was never a problem to bundle IE.
You guys really have no idea how the law works or what actually happened in that case, you really should stop bringing it up.

Judging from your post, you've never been the target of a DDoS as none of what you said would have any affect on a real attack.
If I wasn't even really trying, I'd just use your IDS against you and have you end up effectively firewalling yourself off the Internet.
Save my bandwidth for someone with skills while you try to figure out what's going on
