For sound, you go to Top Fuel drag races, or, even louder, air shows(The 16 Spitfire low-altitude flyby at Duxford in 2010 for example... Made any F1, Nascar or Indycar race seem tame, no matter what engines you wanted to compare with)
Let me guess, you're one of those guys that think music is better if its louder...
Loud doesn't impress me. The sound of a turbo blow off value in something like a Toyota Supra as it cycles through the lower gears in just a couple seconds is for more sexy than any top fuel dragster, and thats just out of the factory.
The sound of a Audi turbo diesel in an LMP1 car running at Road Atlanta for Petit Le Mons or at Le Mons is far sexier than the roar of a top fuel dragster where you can rest assured that before the end of the day, part of the sound you are hearing from the dragster is one or more pistons vaporizing and coming out the exhaust. With the Audi turbo diesels you hear more of the turbo blow off and transmission noise than you do of the engine and they do it for 24 hours straight in one piece, and they spend their entire time at the top of the field and in the winners circle or at the minimum on the podium.
Don't get me wrong, TF dragsters are impressive powerful beasts, but they are hardly sexy.
The larger engines are not 'dead ends'. They are too big for the sanctions put in place on F1 to keep the costs and more importantly, the speeds down. If you can make a V6 as fast as a restricted V8, then you've just saved some weight when means faster acceleration. It doesn't mean the V8 is maxed out, its just restricted so theres no point in trying to go any faster with them. With a V6 doing the same, you can almost certainly carry less fuel and less engine weight as well as lower rotating mass. All of these things add up to faster lap times due to better acceleration and braking.
F1, Indy, Champ, all those style of cars has been working to reduce top speeds for the last 10 years at least, probably longer.
Can we get stories about when kernel developers go to the bathroom as well?
This is hardly anything that matters or belongs on slashdot. Hans Reiser slaying his wife... okay, sure, that meant the end of reiserfs effectively. One kernel dev serving time for a basic civil disobedience charge? Who cares? Its about as important as Bennett Hasleton rants about things he utterly fails to understand.
So basically you found someone who will deal with you in bitcoin because their native currency is even more worthless and volatile than the BTC market... good job. Outside of some third world slave labor, its another story.
Sorry dude, but before SC5 was even released to the public, the idea that it had a more complex simulation was utterly destroyed. The SC5 simulation is very very weak.
We make more money each second than you'll make in your entire life. Your arrogant attitude makes us laugh. We have MBAs who have forgotten more about development than you think you know, and about 8 orders of magnitude more than you actually know.
We're sorry you think our predicament is so bad, but we do enjoy floating our yacht on ocean sized volumes of cash, our yachts are big enough the waves aren't an issue, perhaps if you pulled your head out of your ass for a second you would realize this and you would realize that while you try to act like some one cares what you think, you are nothing, hence your AC post. Oh? You don't love us... I'm sure will lose sleep at night over that.
Cheers,
A company which actually turns a profit
I'd bet a months pay you don't make $20/hour, let alone 200. Your ignorance wreaks that of a 15 year old without a clue how the real world operates and certainly indicates that you have absolutely no idea what happens in a company the scale of Microsoft. You seem to think %0.00001 of your customers having an issue with regressions is the end of the world.
It doesn't show them 'by default'. The opening page is a list of games for your platform, if you browse to a different category or search for a game, you're taking deliberate action to do so. Make sure you search for Mac games if you want to buy games for a Mac, and make sure its badged for Mac.
Mac Steam doesn't start you in the Windows or Linux games page.
I've seen this happen when a Mac version of the game is coming, but hasn't actually been released. In my case the game showed up on Mac a month or two later.
When I bought it, I was fine with buying only a Windows version and thought the store was wrong when it showed the mac badge.
For reference: Nothing stops you from buying windows only games on mac.
There will be nothing to "retain" nor "verify", if a cop wraps a piece of chewing gum around camera's lens and microphone hole for a few minutes...
Other than the video showing the cop putting chewing gum on the lens... and the video of the cop removing chewing come from the lens...
There will just be a string of "unexplained malfunctions" nationwide, which the manufacturers will be at a loss to explain...
Except for the video mentioned above explaining what happened clearly...
It may be possible to get it to work, yes, but it is going to be a lot harder, than the Senator realizes...
There are multiple OSS libraries that already are capable of detecting most of the ways the camera could be obscured, especially as something as trivial as the input going dark which you could do very simply, and basic motion detection would also catch it... gee, the camera gyros show the camera is moving but the video isn't changing or is changing across all pixels fairly equally... because its extremely blurred/obscured.
Or Prosecuting Attorney: Officer, why do we have a video show you putting gum over the lense of your camera 5 minutes before this shooting occurred and taking it off 10 minutes after? Whats that? You're going to be found guilty of the crime you're charged with? Yes, we understand that, guess you shouldn't have obscured the camera eh?
Now, I don't own a GoPro, but last I heard, they were nearly indestructible inside their shatterproof sealed case.
The only thing the case does is keep water and dirt out. A 5 foot drop will easily destroy a GoPro, and I know this as I have a friend with multiple videos of his GoPro being killed as it falls to the ground for various reasons in the case.
They are pretty shitty cameras, their only advantage is that they are light and have ready made accessories, beyond that, if you really want to be rough, GoPro isn't the choice to make.
Your post is really stupid based on the entire premise that Ubuntu isn't Linux for some silly reason. You do realize 'Linux' is just a kernel, right? Android is Linux just as much as Ubuntu, Red Hat and Debian.
With that sort of attitude, its highly likely that Red Hat doesn't care about you either. Based on your post, its a safe bet you don't make the decision on anything that matters or any quantity that matters so... they won't care either, frankly.
... have you watched the full video... because it confirms exactly what the police said, and has people on the video talking about how he ran at the cop with a knife even though its not visible in the video itself.
Not sure at all how you got that it was all lies. Pretty much EVERYONE else recognizes that it was suicide by cop.
You've watched an edited version that removes the beginning where the camera walks by the guy holding the knife. The camera man originally passed within a few feet of the victim from the same direction that cop vehicle came in from. You're also not seeing the ending where the witnesses are discussing the fact that he ran at the cop with a knife that THEY saw which you can't see on a shitty phone video.
You're basically watching the Julian Assange edit of the video thats designed to mislead you into thinking collateral murder.
There was no protest or riot because the full version of the video took away every excuse to protest. The guy had mental issues, had just robbed a store and was standing on the curb daring anyone to fuck with him and to try and get the two sodas he took from the store.
Considering that the only testimony that he had his hands up is from people that have already been caught telling multiple about what happened we can safely assume that he wasn't surrendering and he wasn't holding his hands up just like the autopsy showed he wasn't running away like they all said.
No, it won't. The shooting in Ferguson was used as an excuse to riot.
Look at the story, every 'witness' says he was shot in the back running away... until the autopsy shows that NONE of the wounds were in his back. From the start every witness account was bullshit. The kid had JUST robbed a store, that there is video of. He's seen being aggressive in the video. This is fact. Everyone that knew what actually happened lied and started causing trouble.
Not since Watts has any riot in america been legitimate. Everyone has been an excuse for people to burn THIER OWN NEIGHBORHOOD DOWN... W.T.F.
If you look at Ferguson, the actual people doing the 'rioting' have nothing to do with the incident, hell more than a few of them fucking flew in from the East or West coast. You know its bullshit the instant Al Sharpton gets involved. He's nothing but a loud mouth blowhard who does his very best to promote hatred and encourage racism.
Cameras won't stop this problem, they'll just remove this particular venus and instead it'll be more Treyvon Martin style incidents instead of cops.
I'm all for putting cameras on cops, but pretending this problem is a problem caused by the cops is ignorance at best. This is a cultural issue where the people 'rioting' live in and promote a culture of racism and use that as an excuse to be violent. The racism isn't just black vs white either, whites are a popular and easy target but any group thats different is used to facilitate this crap.
If you want to solve these 'riots' stop pretending the rioters are legitimate when they clearly aren't. Again, against the police in this case have been lying from the start acting like the kid was a saint, and every time a new fact emerges it becomes more and more clear that he was nothing more than a hood rat.
these things are going to be packed to the gills with dozens of sensors covering thousands of metrics and they will be logged every second.
Running software written by the lowest paid developer they could find.
Fuck being upright, cramped, and crammed in to the front of a car.
Space constraints are already an issue, laying down is going to consume far more space... and...
I want to lounge back in comfort, read the news, catch up on email, etc.
Do you do this on an empty train/bus? Do you always lay down at home or at the office? Do you lay back while sitting in your chain in front of (insert whatever it is you do in your leasuire time)? Whats that? No, you don't? Because it isn't really all that comfortable unless you're sleeping? Oh, my bad, maybe you should leave the engineering up to engineers who put more than half a thought into ergonomics.

No thanks, Comcast/TWC/Cox already operate in that mode.
Not when coupled with inflation properly.

If we had a system where we standardized mailbox sizes to some specification
Done, been that way all my life (I'm almost 40).
and then licensed out some NFC/smart card system to let postal workers/delivery companies open them, then we might be getting somewhere
You mean some sort of key ... Again, done, group boxes have had keys all my life.
but if you could simply buy the relevant thing at Home Depot
Home Depot sales mailboxes, all of which meet all sorts of standard requirements for US Postal Service deliveries.
You do realize that everything you've said has been around for, what, a century?
There are even standards for positioning of the mailbox, not just size.
I'm guessing you're not real observant and haven't noticed that all mailboxes are already the same size, basic shape and location.
If a UAV of even 5 pounds drops from as little as 10 feet above your head, it can easily kill you.
(lowering the parcel on a rope, the drone never comes even near ground)
Until I grab the rope and pull the UAV to the ground.
The number of UAVs it would take to replace a single FedEx or UPS truck would certainly be several orders of magnitude noisier.

Then perhaps you should browse personal sites on your own dime, not the company network.
