Yeah, I'm curious how this will effect people with osteoporosis and such. I also recall a race in the Mass Effect universe who had high metabolism. As a consequence, they didn't live very long.
I've had hardware act screwy on Windows, too. Sometimes Windows will just refuse to sleep because a process prohibiting suspend did not exit like it should. Suspend works rather well on my present install of Ubuntu on my laptop, but I've had issues with it waking up.
A depressing comment to read. These are things I worry about, losing the income that makes much of the lifestyle I provide my family, when I disagree with my superiors. I have clinical licensure, ethics and people's lives to worry about compared to Benjamins my bosses count, so I have valid disagreements but they mean diddly when you're replaceable.
I don't really care for the battery cases as they add weight and bulk to the device. I see a lot of traveling industry reps I work with carrying the battery cells with USB ports. Just plug in and charge. The cell gets them through the day and they plug it in at night in the hotel. I do not own one and don't have much of a need for one, but one of the reps let me borrow his when I needed a charge. It is slower than a wall outlet, but works.
I turned down the discounted (or was it free?) Win8 upgrade on a Win7 laptop I bought because I knew it was garbage. I feel less apprehensive about Win10 after seeing so many Youtube videos and reading so many articles. Since I'm on the bottom of the upgrade criteria, still running Windows 7, I feel it is time to upgrade. I'm still weighing out upgrade vs. fresh install. I have a lot of software I don't want to install again and a copy of office 2010 that has reached its activation limit.
I've always wondered why a system similar to ssh keys has never been implemented for website logins and widely used. Even if it were optional, as a lot of people probably wouldn't understand and therefore not use it, a lot of others would probably use it or learn to.
Was just reading about a 25 GPU cluster for brute forcing passwords. You can use them for supercomputing too. You could probably homebrew one with used equipment and save some cash. Anyway, here is some inspiration: http://arstechnica.com/securit...
If someone downloads Hurt Locker and gets caught, then they should be out for the cost of the media, legal costs, and cost of the investigation. Nothing more. It should be a civil process and not a criminal one. I never understand how the courts decide how much money a music pirate deprived a record company of as that money was never generated in the first place by the private to be accounted for.
Ever been born in the hospital? They take your footprint and it could just as easily be put on government record if they can't get through your foil hat. Beside, even giving something away requires inventory tracking on some level.
Perhaps they use thumbprints as opposed to swipe cards that students lose? When I was in elementary school we had the cards for our cash accounts and a friend lost his almost every week. Yes, thumbprints sound a little scary, but even if they gave them ID cards they would still be tracking them.
Hey, great work on that CEO Python script. It'll save us a bunch of money not paying that guy. That said, you're fired. Don't leave ass prints on the door.
First article I read about the so called "on off" aging switch the guy said you wouldn't live forever. He backed this up with statistics and the certainty that something would get you after about 300-400 years: illness, plane crash, murder, etc. it is the aging switch, not the immortality switch in the general sense.
I remember popping the disk out to make sure I didn't put a Redhat disk in by mistake when I saw "REDHAT LINUX" across the top of the installer. No, it really was the Mandrake disk.
Anti-platelet therapy is pretty effective at preventing restenosis. Risk factor modification further improves outcomes. Regardless, it beats the alternative. Look at it this way: you could die as a result of getting a stent (bare metal, drug-eluding), but you will die if you sit around and do nothing.
Just last year we were putting dissolving coronary stents in patients as a study in my lab. The researchers were highly selective about who was eligible based on a strict criteria. So I think putting electronics in them is even further off.

Yeah, there's no such thing as a bad food, just bad portions. Who likes portions? This guy.

Safety on the job is a huge focus to keep us from physical harm. What about the psychological hazards?

Also, when you fix a bug, make sure you're pushing to the right repo. I suppose that's more of a bug in the programmer. Humanity is a bug.

Yes, it would get hung up on a dilemma: am I sure I want to ... ?
This is a valid concept so long as both parties agree to uphold the privacy. However, that's a big "if."

Shit, now I have to take time out of my day to watch that episode.

Depriving people of money is not as heinous as depriving people of their lives, own personal security, and dignity. Do not treat it as such.
You can't make a plane that does everything.
Ya dumb broad. Go write a shitty 3rd-grade-level song about it.
