And what do you think happened here? It's maddening to work some of these long term implementation projects as government support staff is routinely changed causing delays in key decisions. Then requirements get changed along with the personnel changes. Duke Nukem might be a very apt description of what happened on these large projects. In addition to trying to do REALLY hard things with technology that just isn't quite there yet at on a scale most don't really understand.
In my mind I think the perfect screen size would be in the 4.5-4.7 inch range. Here is the kicker though let's up the resolution on these things. The Note is interesting not only because of the size but it has decent resolution (1280X800) and the iPhone 4s (960X640). I'm not generally an Apple fan but man they nailed it when they upped the resolution. I think the next phone/phablet that gets me to 1900X1080 resolution gets my dollars. If that's a 5 incher so be it.
Better yet legalize and tax drugs, reduce police force and put that money toward pedestrian bridges. No need to worry about drug use nearly as much if people aren't driving under the influence, and if all of the carts are following traffic laws no need for as heavy police enforcement.
I liked the whole SimCity genre and still do today. I like city builders. That said I don't particularly like online games. I certainly don't want to have an always on internet connection to play them. When I'm traveling for business firing up a quick game before bed becomes a lot more of a hassle if I now have to rent internet service for it. Also I don't want to sign up for another service. Steam was pushing it, I just can't do Orion too. That probably means the next Dragon Age release is out for me as well. Oh well.
Having owned 2 relatively new Chrysler products I would whole heartedly agree with the bottom ratings. Unfortunately for me they make some the only cars that fit me well in style and comfort. Oh well. Back to TOA though think about this. In the nineties if you were buying a used car you wouldn't even look at a car with over 50k miles. Today you'd look and buy it because you expect it to get to 150K minimum and 10-15 years. I wouldn't have said that about cars even 10 years ago. I would say that speaks volumes about the quality of vehicles being made today.
You might think differently if you find that you can't get enough developers or content owners to support your platform of choice (see WebOS) because the user base isn't sufficiently large. That said as a pure hardware play that has the potential to let me run CM(X) I'm pretty excited.
This is the primary reason I haven't jumped on board. I don't understand google's product development efforts that automatically exclude the very people that google is try to capture and own everything about. I mean if your a google app customer you've got a large portion of your data with google already it's mind boggling that they don't want to capture the rest of it.
Additionally until recently 20 years in was enough for a pensioned retirement with full health care until death. Doesn't sound bad until you realize that you can be looking at 40+ additional years of pensions and health care you are paying for on an employee that provided 20 years of output. It's the long term costs that really need to be factored to get a true assessment on contractor or employee value.
Lowering your salary requirements often doesn't really play into it. Hiring managers will see years of experience and equate that to a salary range. If you pay less than that range the manager will feel that the staff is under employed and will look for the first opportunity to jump to a job with salary commensurate of experience regardless of is that is how the employee really feels.
This is perfect timing for this question. I myself am converting one of my old laptops for use for my daughters (oldest is 5) and I am struggling with this same question. Our elementary school uses the Millie's Math House, Bailey's Book House series so I will probably purchase a copy and install them as my daughter says working with those programs is the funniest thing she does is school. Keep in mind I haven't used them yet and can't give any first hand accounts on them but the school uses them so to provide continuity with the learning experience that is what I will do as well. That might be a good place for you to start as well. Talk to the local elementary school and find out what they use. Other than that I'm going to look into some of the suggestions here to see what might be suitable.
I remember in high school taking a trip to the Naval Research center just outside of DC. They had a Cray (can't remember which one it was 1990) that the whole class sat on while the presenter talked. Until I saw that picture I completely forgot about it.
Is there any reason to run antivirus on PCs any more? I've taken mine off a long time ago. Most virus' (viri????) I've found come in the form of email attachments and there is always a virus check from the server on that. Other than that it's mostly trojans and malware from websites. Malwarebyes or similar malware checking software is as about all I bother with. And I even wonder about that as I need to manually delete some of the stuff anyway. If that's the case why bother at all?
While you might like to give Apple a pass for the evils of AT&T. Let's not forget the reason this is news at all is because of Apple's insistence on a single network for it's devices. If it had opened the device up to all network providers then we would all ho-hum it and move to another provider. It's Apple's desire to maximize it's control and limit options that is the true culprit here. And if they didn't foresee this as a potential issue shame on them.
I was on CM 4.2.xxx can't really remember the full version. When I first flashed CM5test2 I thought the base os and functionality were way faster and more responsive. I'm on test 7 now and I find it's much faster and more responsive overall than CM4, but there are a few laggy moments. That said I have a Class6 card with swap and compcache disabled. I wouldn't go back to 4 unless I really had too. Test7 seems fairly stable but there are a few quirks, however it's fixed a few quirks that were in 4. The most interesting part of the upgrade was flashing the DANGERSPL. Bricked my phone. If you go that route then you must follow the instructions exactly, especially the radio part.
Well it depends.....are you looking to root your phone? If so I've been running eclair for a month or so on my G1. Check out CyanogenMod 5 for the most recent ROM. Otherwise I believe you are out of luck.
Who modded this insightful. Contrary to popular belief it's not an issue of actually paying someone as little as possible for as much work you can squeeze out of them (well in the places that I've worked). When looking to see if money is THE motivating factor you know that the person you are hiring is gone as soon as they get another offer of more money. It costs a lot to make a hire and if you make the wrong hire you've set your self and your organization back because of it. It can take weeks/months to get someone up to speed and contributing and if you loose them after 9 months because all they care about is money you've made a really bad hire.
Not really. I've used TPB a few times (10ish) and the vast majority of it has been for finding trail and open source software. It's basically a big search engine for me. I use it because it's well know and seems to have access to lots of torrents.
I wouldn't say you have to bend over backwards. I was hesitant to root my phone until I got tired of the slowness. It took about 5 Minutes (not counting download times) and there are apps that help with the process. Would I recommend it to every one? Probably not but I wouldn't hesitate to tell some one considering the move to try it.
I would expect that the answer is that most of us really only listen to radio in the car (well at least in the circles that I run that's the case.) When I'm at work it's a stream or music file, and at home it's the same. For the most part people don't like replacing the OEM car radio with a new one. Colors don't match, steering wheel controls don't work, looks like an add on, etc. So that's why I expect it really hasn't caught on. Most people aren't going to replace their car for an HD radion. What's really confusing to me though is why HD radio isn't standard equipment on all new cars. That's the real head scratcher.
For what it's worth I had head unit in one of my past cars replaced with an HD radio. You're spot on with the AM stations. I found that while moving the HD signal dropped often and there was an annoying delay when auto switching to the analog signal. I liked it, but when I bought my new used car I didn't feel the need to replace the radio. I still have it if anyone is interested.
Considering the G1's processor is a Qualcomm® MSM7201Aâ, 528 MHz I'm pretty sure most desktops today (even those 5 years old) would be more than sufficient to power even a poorly emulated application.

I believe that T-Mobile does.

Forget Craigslist check out your local freecycle. I see a CRT monitor or two pop up weekly.

Not in this case it's one and the same.
Are you viewing from a phone or similar mobile device. I noticed that when I checked my yahoo mail on my phone it started with a m as well.
