and while we are at it, can we point out that all H264 streams are not the same, or compatable. I cannot make a h264 stream that will play on both my phone and on my ps3 at the same time. so as far as i'm concerned they might as well need different formats.
I'm on a pve server do t limited play time. I want to get one, get in that raid, and kill stuff. Then the next day do my dailies to pay for my habit. getting ganked/greifed/camped does not help towards this end goal. even if i want to pvp 90% of the time, i could by BGs, arena, WG, etc. no need to get griefed in the normal world.
as a note you only need to run ffmpeg once to make the source into many different outputs. "ffmpeg -i $IN $OUT1OPTIONS $OUT1 $OUT2OPTIONS $OUT2" ffmepg handles running things 2x if needed. It does seem to take a bit longer.
so don't reencode the back library, or do so slowly as resources allow and drop a codec for the new videos, say the flv ones. so old videos are in flv and h264+acc, new ones are in h264+aac and vp8+acc. Old devices are SoL but thats "progress"
walk to the buss stop ~1 mile away at 0F(inspec) with phone in hand so you can browse the web/playgame/etc. Now get on warm bus, watch phone condense. get off bus, walk ~1 mile to work, go inside, watch phone condense and LCI turn red. Same thing as the experiment.
is it non-condensing in the air(rain)? or on the device(because it's below dew-point)? or the air is really below dew-point? They really should be making a portable device able to swing from 0 at 5%(after the device is at ambient temp) to 95@95% with no ill effects, or the operating range needs to be redefined, IMO, as the device cannot operate through the whole of it's temperature range.
I wonder if a small amount of clearcoat over the sensor would stop it from turning red.
The catch here is the "noncondensing" part. From my limited photography experience, we'd bag up cameras that had been out in the winter outside with as little air as possible, then transfer them to the refrigerator and then finally the counter and only after they were at ambient temp would the bag get opened and the camera removed. This is of course a bit unreasonable for a device meant to go in your pocket, but i'm willing to bet that if it was done, you could do it without tripping the sensor. You need to keep the temperature of your phone above the dew point temp of the air to avoid condensing. Apple just didn't design the phone to handle rapid temp swings. Not thats outside the normal for consumer electronics.
I'm willing to bet though that your cheek is warmer than 20 when you go outside. which is why you don't have any problems, also your hand is covering the other side, keeping your phone nice and warm. I really wonder if the phone left out at -4 for say ~24 hours is going to make it or if the LCD is going to freeze.
nothing, if you have a UHF/VHF antenna it should just work(as long as you get a decent signal and that it doesn't drop bits and make the sound stutter, and cause artifacts in the video)
what if i have a 1080P TV that only has component inputs? that i bought 4 years ago for 7kUSD? So when my player breaks, or they force an upgraded version to watch a disc i bought, i'll be unable to fully use my TV. It seems that the current crop of players already support this flag, so it could be as soon as 2011 when new discs actully start using the flag.
even more MEH seeing as with all that space they can't provide a "compressed" or normalized audio track, so i can watch my movies with explosions and gun fire at night with out waking the whole house up, and yet still hear the characters whisper.
really? as your user try to delete/etc/fstab... go on, try it? yep thats right the OS gave you the finger and told you no. Now if you are root it'll happily let you do any old dumb thing you can think of. These are not going to be letting the user have root access. The only "critical" files they can delete then are their own files. Most GUI file managers these days default to asking you about every delete and delete == "mv $1 ${HOME}/Recycling Bin/" so yea. Also apart from the stuff in/boot/* almost every other file can be fixed without a reinstall now a "chmod ugo-rwx -R/*" as root will be hard to recover from and faster if you just reinstall i could recover it from an initramfs(i may start using on just for this) or liveCD to get me started(bash/sh/init/dev/fstab)
no need to store if you rebreed it. By making it more radioactive, you shorten the half life making it safer faster, or you get useful fuel back out if it.
The only two incidents i can think of are Chernobyl, and TMI, both were mostly human error. Chernobyl from what i read, was running a experiment and had all of the safety systems disabled at the time, and ignorred the warnings. TMI barly released more than background levels of radation. It also had a ticker type error reporting system that could not keep up with the cascade of errors. Also why does everyone assume that these new plants will be built on 30-40 year old tech?
I'm sure it would be less dependent than ohh say oil?
hmm I can see my self streaming 2-3 bluray quality movies into my house inside of 10 years. The wife and I, and then one stream for each of our two kids. So thats right near 90Mbps right there, let alone any other network traffic. yea by myself i'd be pressed to use much over 50Mbit.
capped? at how much per month? my dsl isn't capped as far as i can tell. over the last 2 years i've averaged, from one tracker, 165MB/day down and 816MB/day up. thats with self rate limiting so as to allow netflix to play smoothly, WoW to play well, youtube,/., facebook, etc. Anyways, i'd more then happly take half the bandwidth and not have caps, then double and 20GB/month.
could be for upcoming products, see the speculation that they are going to be doing realtime voice translations. knowing they they started hiring 2 people from a large number of major language groups might lead you to assume they were going to release a translation app.
google is smarter than to just drop support for flash overnight with no notice. I'm betting like the above proposal there will be flash support for a few to several months, where if you fall back to flash you get a message bar that says you are using the old youtube and that it is being phased out, see this link for more info. The link will provide instructions that grandma can follow to get something else(chrome being the recommendation, FF/opera/safari being listed in the "more browsers" link).
is it cheaper(however slightly) than the same machine with windows? if it's higher i'm betting that they had to pay for a full copy of windows, never got it, passed that cost onto me.

I pick three versions of gentoo "released" at the same time. Yep it probably did get faster. :P
100Mb would seem fine assuming that it's on a proper(managed/smart) switch and not on a hub.

yes, wrap the $10 one around a hot chick, and add the $100 one to gotse.

aand they may not even be out of luck, s it sounds they gave the guy a job. Looks like they will be rolling it out to everyone.
find me a xorg 7.4 diver for a geforce3? or for that matter that a 5000/6000 card?
yep, but the push away from oil needs something, Electric seems to be one idea for cars. Hmm bet we need more power to charge them every night.

you might be correct if you could find a whole district that wasn't a correctional facility that was >75% violent criminals.
