the people with hd tvs are usually early adopters anyway.
do you suppose manufacturers would only make dvds if too few people bought the new stuff?
they still make sacd so maybe not

oh no, i meant that gimp has a file save where there's a drop-down for the most recently used directories, but you have to click something to get the full directory list. apparently this saves some people time.
then i related that to something more common and frustrating, but you can probably see why i connect the two.
this is probably important to the government for one reason or another. the 70 million who can't watch tv will be no longer pacified by the inaction involved in watching tv and the content itself, but peeved because lawmakers just made their "free" (ad supported and a waste of time) entertainment obsolete. i annoyed with lawmakers for other reasons, but c'est la vie.
i read the whole thing, and i'm not sure how much of it i actually believe. Mr. Frost says they get a lot of info from baby monitors... they'd have to be pretty close to the originating house to do that, because even if the range extends far enough (which it probably doesn't, it costs money and takes fcc licenses to do long range broadcasting), baby monitors are on a band that is used by a lot of other things as well, and their transmissions would join a flood of others.
so i can only think of a few ideas to explain this guy: he might be sensationalizing his story, possibly on behalf of his former employer, possible to his own ends. that, or when they hired him, the cse or whatever may have shown him a demo that made him believe they had more capabilities than they really did. maybe 60 minutes ran out of ideas for shows and hired an actor to spout off things they based off of conspiracy websites. ok, maybe not, but i still find this hard to believe, especially former workers talking about it to a television show.
i'm still assembling a server that is intended to run without administration while i'm away at school next year. and while i could buy a very nice computer with a small number of fans for a reasonable price, i decided to go for a low power (in both senses) computer with no moving parts.
if concealed carry is meant to aid people's protection of themselves, why conceal it? if you're toting a loaded rifle around, in plain sight, i don't think anyone's going to mug you.
if people see enough of this they'll probably be for concealed carry anyway;)

sometimes in gimp it doesn't even display the thing where you pick directories to store the file in. i abhor all those things where they automatically condense the menus and have a little arrow to expand them again. thankfully there are programs available to me that don't do that, and that i only use gimp and gaim and nothing else from gnome.
you don't use a furnace like you use a computer. older furnaces have 1 parameter to set, and on newer ones the other settings are optional. the experience and tools required to fix one are much harder to acquire than the experience and tools needed to fix a computer (unless you go really deep into it, but i'm talking about normal repairs an end user would make).
computers are amazing to me in how differently they behave than most other devices. just the idea of being able to run a plethora of different programs on the same machine, and each can do whatever it was programmed to do is pretty crazy, especially considering how easy it is to write compared to developing a standalone product to do the same thing. being able to copy data so readily is also pretty neat.
although there are probably some large caps in that psu, you'd want a whole bunch more.
you should see the capacitor banks at the university of wisconsin-madison (i went on one of their tours). they use them to power plasma experiments for short periods of time.
google for coilgun if you're interested in this stuff

it's also prone to scratching
i too am a fan of rom carts, too bad games don't use them either.
the industry might like them as they're not so easy to duplicate as cds

i agree with that. it's hard to use the full capabilities of most recently made computers (i don't even try)

one of the best ways to learn how to use a computer is by futzing with it, push all the buttons and see what happens
granted some basic knowledge helps an awful lot to start out, but experience is key.
preferably at high voltage, yes.

"now if we can add this info into our 3D video games... :)" ...then i'll finally have an excuse to buy new hardware ;)
fp?
don't governments these days have more pressing matters to attend to?
i agree
i also appreciate the fundamental theorem of calculus
there's something else to them: if you have a card for their store, you're less likely to go to a store you have no card for
it's very easy to use those things inapproprietly though.

hey, i just failed a test on that (thankfully not an exam). cheers!
i think they mean non-light type analogue signals. broadcast/composite/etc.
at least i should hope so.
