Is this a reference to some specific quality issue with those companies' products?
SpaceX had a rocket that exploded because of a faulty metal strut, and they found several more in inventory didn't meet spec (failed at about 10% of rated spec). If I recall, they started making those themselves after that incident.
I had no idea wtf you were talking about, so I googled it, and it's from a 1930s Marx brothers movie. Of course nobody got the reference. I would guess 1% of people actually saw that at some point in their life, and maybe 1% of them would remember it.
It also looks like Terry Pratchett referenced it once in some book I've never heard of, and neither has anyone in your office.
Are you choosing to ignore the 2001 movie named "Swordfish" then?
That can be done for any car - how do you think dealers make a new key when you misplace your original keys?
It may make sense to have that capability. But there's no reason for the whole database to be replicated anywhere outside of some secure vault within Jeep's corporate headquarters in Italy. Dealers should send authenticated individual queries to the central system as needed.
Since they could track it down to a specific dealer, it sounds like that is exactly how it works.
Not only that, but it does not affect most phones with lollipop on it. It only works on phones that allow copy and paste from the emergency dialer (most do not) only then is it vulnerable.
The only thing that requires Steam to still be around is the multiplayer system Steamworks.
In order to play *any* game bought from Steam, the Steam client must be running and have an internet connection.
That's not true! I have several games on Steam that will run just fine on it's own (I can even copy them to my laptop without Steam installed and they work there too). Not all the games on steam use Steamworks or any sort of DRM... Kerbal Space Program is one example.
Original Soundtrack: This Original Soundtrack includes 14 unique tracks mixed from the ambient music of the game, allowing you to enjoy the wonderful music whenever you want.
Digital Art book: See the concepts behind the buildings! The book features almost a 32 hand drawn concepts of the game various buildings and the story behind each.
I am so fucking sick of idiotic vehicle design ideas being mandated by government.
A good example is "daytime running lights". This moronic design tends to cause many drivers to forget to switch their lights on when darkness falls, because the daytime running lights make these drivers think their headlights are already switched on when they are not switched on. The result is cars driving in the dark with NO TAIL LIGHTS.
Fuck the government and all its "we will make the world safe for you" bullshit. More often than not, the end result is worse than if nothing had been done.

Where I live the mandated "daytime running lights" includes the tail lights.
Slashdot Mirror
I don't think you need to prefix "-webkit-" on linear gradients anymore.
Does not have "sticky" windows. Can not relocate a window from one work space to another
What would you call this then?

Not a single one spotted the reference

Planes prefer taking off into the wind anyway, don't they?

You missed "house".
That's fine and all, if they had bothered to put it there on the mobile version of the site as well.
A feature that is missing from the mobile version of the site.

I'm guessing that since I've set mine up so that the phone needs to be unlocked to access the camera, then I should be safe as well.
And battery life should fall somewhere in the 1 – 2 day range, depending on how heavily the watches are used.
I think I'll pass...
Even the video streams showed Dragon getting thrown clear.
My chromecast lets me use the play/pause button on my TV remote.
I have 2 words for you "control group"
For Chrome: ScriptSafe + Chostery + HTTP SwitchBoard + Disconnect
Just FYI ScriptSafe is abandoned...
Didn't they update it just this week?

I think in this case the "check" refers to looking at what has been auto-filled in the field...
I'd say that there's a difference between "offsets" and "makes up for"...

Umm... you can't watch a friend while waiting for his game to finish via a pre-recorded video...
Bandwidth would probably be ok, but the ping times would be horrible...
I have no real advice on what we should do about stick...perhaps the clutch is in the middle?
How would you operate something like that without making things more complicated?
I would think the same could be said of quite a few mid-engined gas-powered sports cars as well.
