They either cause higher electricity rates, if the utility is footing the bill, or they cause higher tax rates, if the government is footing 100% of the bill. Either way, I'm paying, and not getting anything for it.
And if you think the utilities are going to install these things and not use them as an excuse to raise rates, you're dreaming.
These systems don't need network access to play a game bought on a disk.
The Xbox One at least used to need Internet access for first-time setup (it didn't include a final firmware image out-of-the-box) - don't know about PS4. But once that's done, you can play offline in single player or local multiplayer to your heart's content.
I can't speak for iBooks. But for Kindle if it's supported in Kindle Previewer, then someone screwed up pretty carelessly. Neither my Kindle Fire HD (first generation), Kindle Paperwhite (second generation), nor the Kindle app on iPhone support hyphenation in KF8 books.
As for RMSDK: Agree about the vendor prefix. However, their property predates the hyphens property being officially specced out by several months; it's not terribly surprising that they don't match up quite right. (Plus, the default is "auto" instead of "manual".) Once they had the property, they were pretty much stuck with it for compatibility reasons.
As far as I know, Nook is the only e-reader to support hyphenation. There may be one or two other readers with newer versions of the RMSDK that also support it, but I don't know of any offhand.
If the state/city has any ability to veto home-schooling, then you cannot assume that a parent who refuses to vaccinate their child will be able to home-school them. Period.
Microsoft didn't want to allow the Xbox One to accept Xbox 360 controllers, so they chose to scrap XInput support from the Xbox One controllers. That PC users can't use the controllers is just an unfortunate side-effect.
"On top of that, as separate companies, one of them could decide to try to expand operations into the other's area, as competition."
Not in most places, as local cities love to grant exclusive monopolies to their cable system in exchange for... well, not much, that I can see.
Mankind isn't nearly in danger of dying out - we're still increasing the population faster than it's dying. Unless and until our population levels off, I don't see why my company should be paying women to not work.
I'm all for equal pay, treatment, and opportunities; but the OP seems to be saying that women want unequal treatment (maternity leave, accommodations for nursing).
Backwards compatibility was taken away, in conjunction with a price drop because eliminating those chips significantly lowered the cost to build the machine. I'm more than happy to have saved $100 on my PS3 to lose that.
Cross-game chat (which is what's really being asked for; plenty of games have implemented their own in-game chat), while trivial from a technical perspective, has the issue of Sony not being able to increase the memory or CPU footprint of the OS while a game is running, lest they break one or more of the thousands of existing games. So if they added that, they'd have to find something to carve out. Theoretically I suppose they could build more RAM/a faster CPU into the newer machines, but only those would be able to support chat.
The fact that you still have those LaserJet 4s may be why they considered selling it. Hard to make a profit when customers don't need to buy more printers.
If you don't want to participate in their program, you're welcome to format-shift the book yourself. They're giving you a free bonus here, not trying to make something that you're entitled to more difficult to get.
Actually, they do - 20th Century Fox was the production company, and holds the distribution rights (so they sell the DVDs). The show succeeding was in their best interest, so they had nothing to do with network-of-the-same-name's cancellation decision.
The goal here isn't to review individual commits; it's to get the code to a more maintainable place so that it can be audited as a whole for the vulnerabilities that have cropped up over the years.
I guess I was considering relevant work experience, not flipping burgers. But that wouldn't be a newbie - in that case, I think I agree that the degree is certainly a more useful indicator.:)
So between someone with no experience but a degree, and someone with 5+ years experience (at the same company) and no degree, you'd still opt for the degree-bearer?
I would have thought the work experience would show that they can do #1 and #2, and probably #3 as well...

It may be "socially unacceptable", but that doesn't mean it should be illegal; it didn't harm anybody.

Ah, I wasn't aware that he had agreed. That's what I get for not RingTFA.
So, his trial hasn't even started yet, but they're already auctioning off what they seized as part of the investigation.
There's sleazy, and then there's the U.S. Marshals.

As soon as Tesla set up shop in Iowa (the site they're doing the test drives from), it ceased to be interstate commerce.
They filed the trademark application back in 2009. The USPTO just hasn't gotten around to processing it until now.

The "running TV tally" is from exit polling, which you can't do anything about. It's not actual vote counting.
Uhh... AT&T's DVR is equally as bright.

With Comcast, at least locally, it's cheaper to keep whatever their bottom tier of cable is than to get just Internet service by itself.

Really? Sheesh. I have SSRS experience, and I'm laughing my ass off at that. "SQL wrapped in XML" is not exactly an arcane skill....
