I provide bug reports and testing data... when I run into problems that is.
Real-Life takes too much of my time for me to stay sane AND go out of my way to contribute to projects.
On that note... I'm looking for a project that a newbie can try to help with (code wise). I've got entry-level (as in, I can do extreme basics) with ASM (x86), C, C++, Java, Python. I would prefer to use one of the last three.
I'm wanting to learn, but I can't inspire myself to do anything useful, and it stagnates.
A static charge in the right kind of touchscreen could quite possibly influence where those presses are registered. Nobody said the static had to be in the database...
For what I understand, the only reliability problems with scantrons are due to the fact that a meatbag fills them in with Pencil normally. Now, printing a black square in the right spot it something laser printers are very good at. Especially if they print the whole thing.
Personally I don't care for boot times as long as they are not huge. As a matter of fact, my system halts mid-boot awaiting a passphrase to access the rest of the drive.
Stability is more important to me. Why does a 10 minute boot matter if I have to reboot once in two weeks, and that only because I need to unplug the box to clean?
Makes for good bathroom reading. I've printed both the manpage and HTML documentation out for handy reading. I think it totals in the neighborhood of 200 pages.
I think it's related to post moderation history, or more likely your subnet. Lots of trolls post from your corner of the net, the whole corner deals with a CAPTCHA.
They have those "sorry, we don't support that" restrictions in the case that your equipment IS at fault - everyone ends up wasting a shitload of time on something that isn't under their control.
It works. If you have it, and aren't smart enough to work around it, (ie, lie like you do), then the damage control works.
Everything this does I can already do with my Sansa Clip
Have you actually used Rockbox? I guarantee Rockbox has more capabilities. If you don't have a v2, I would suggest you try it. You can uninstall Rockbox, or even just boot the original firmware from inside Rockbox.

Just like they demolish your home's windows, and your car's windshield....
Now, those would not be hacks. Feats worthy of praise they would be, but they would not be hacks.

You're missing the whole point of the parent.
Static is more likely going to zap your input, then output, and finally least likely to zap the actual process or storage.
Why is it so far fetched to imagine a charged touchscreen incorrectly positioning presses?

I'm not sure why they can't laser print something like a scantron. Reliable, and easy to read with human eyes as well.

Yep ;)
Although the "because, FUCK YOU" one was my favorite.

Could I down their production servers, a year after I worked there? Yep. Are they considered compliant to DSS/PCI standards? Yep.
NO.
Passwords MUST change every 90 days at minimum, with a whole lot of rules. If they don't do that, they are NOT compliant. End of Story.
I work in the industry.

Can't say I've ever used Helix. Nor that I ever will. Mplayer and VLC do everything I need, so I don't need some company's trash.

Did you even read more than the first sentence of that? "Dubbed the Large Hatred Collider"
That's in Texas. Last I checked, Texas doesn't share a border with Switzerland.

I hate explaining my jokes, but I head meant that the actual parent was removed, as in killed.

I just checked nvidia's shop, and I see no products direct from nvidia. They are all third-party cards sold by third-party vendors.
No, you need to use the Preview feature.

Just bugfixes. There was a feature-freeze for the bughunt prior to 3.0 release.
Progress is being made but it is still far from useful.
Blame Sandisk for changing the whole board and using that system-on-a-chip, and for not being completely open with documentation.
