SoC has been emerging as a more common term in the last 5 or 6 years meaning System on a Chip. The advantages are it uses less power to do more things, and a lot of low level functions (radios, gpu rendering, etc) have more direct access to on-board cache and memory, as well as a direct line to RAM. They're used in just about everything and are essentially equivalent to saying CPU (for anything other than a desktop or laptop w/o IGP), these days.
How about you assume he does know what he's talking about, since rarely does anybody say "probably needs a new secondary memory controller and platter due to [insert hdd problem]." Not to mention I can now quote you as saying "hard drive memories."
Or you can just go about being an a-hole, I don't particularly care. I'm just informing you that nobody else does, either.
This is, admittedly, slightly over my head as well.
I am sure that with regards to optical diodes and such, though, that they are referencing the actual hardware itself (not the dumb pipe), where switching and routing takes place. I believe the idea is that if you can build the circuits optically, they will be far more efficient -- noise/loss is far less, and the requisite voltages are much lower. No, I didn't RTFA [yet]. Get off my lawn.
This is easily the most annoying things about ads within any video-based entertainment these days, be it cable or the ads before the movie in the theater. Drives me totally nuts. I remember a snippet saying commercials/ads are allowed to be as loud as the loudest moment within whatever show or movie they are contained within. My ears are sensitive. These days I won't even watch things that aren't DVR'd yet, or will come back 30m later, so I can skip them, for this reason alone. Seriously advertisers, WTF is with your audio.
It's to set a precedent. Even if they fail, they have tried. In the future, should someone else actually (assuming Nest is not) infringe their patent, they will sue again. If they had not sued today, every single infringer in the future could just say, "look, they didn't care then - this is now arbitrary." Which has been shown to work in the past.
Contrary to popular belief, natural selection is not specific to medicine, or anything else, for that matter. It is your ability to maintain your genetics to the point that they are passed on to the following generation. If you are willing to ignore medicinal science as a result of your own, direct or indirect, ignorance, that is natural selection at work. The same is true of many things which revolve around medicine. But being trampled by a stampede because you didn't listen when the experienced safariian, when he in fact told you to take proper precautions and you did not, is also an example of natural selection.
I believe that GCC will, by default, utilize epoch time plus a few goodies (including your cycles of up-time as a vector), making it very difficult to re-seed a rand() with the same input. I agree though, it still does not fit the definition of "random."
I've oft thought that if I were to rob a bank, I would first engineer a massive explosion around some densely populated area on the other side of town, a few minutes beforehand.
Incredible. A guy named wjcofkc knows a guy named black_visions and has information (which would be illegal, assuming black_visions did not give it to him) regarding his medical diagnosis.
Do yourself a favor, step back, and get real. Depression is an awful thing, but this isn't an NYT article. There isn't even any resource of information to debate over, unless you want to argue the validity of some internet users' comments on a random suicide. Get off the soapbox.
Look, I know this is/. alright. I get it. But... go to the store and hold one. Yes, the display is somewhat lacking compared to my Nexus. Yes, the software is buggy (which goes hand-in-hand with the call drops - Nokia is doing a decent job maintaining its sliver of marketshare, being relatively transparant with their problem regarding memory mismanagement). Yes, you're right, it's probably not going to take a third of the smartphone marketshare by itself.
But if you think this is a step backwards from the huge percentage of phones being sold currently, still running android from 2 years ago (for basically the same price as one of those - hear, hear, Droid 3, Droid X2, Droid wtf-ever), you're way the hell off base.
Wait, why is it not a "real" smartphone? It's a really nice peice of tech, really, and as such my guess is that you haven't seen the 900 in action, in person or, for that matter, in a review. A definitive step forward for Nokia.
Your drift is caught. However, this isn't really about anybody screwing anybody. The undertones of TFS should be pretty clear: Their business model is failing - creating more invasive measures against fraud is exactly what they need to focus on last if they've any fantasy of staying afloat. Which they don't (have this fantasy - as evidenced in the relatively complete ineptitude of their management). So, they will continue blame their customers again, and again, until the mirror is gone because the stockholders broke it in a fit of rage, and all that is left is the smoke.
It's still slander, and regarding her "reputation services," extortion. Perhaps it would be more accurate to say, we don't need any more restraints on speech.
Civil lawsuit, takedown notice, done. The law already works. No story here... besides/. giving Forbes more free advertising.
Ba-doi hur dur. A rootkit is present in a closed source OS on your system that authenticates on their servers? Mod this shit insightful, informative and I'm thinking we should probably get a "headline-worthy" category, as well. Totes.
Not that your point is entirely missed, with Sony being insultingly aggressive on the DRM front - but your parenthetical literally made me blush upon my co-workers' inquiry, "why dost thou giveth thine cube a fresh coffee coating from thine mouth?"
Your comment reminds me of when my company did layoffs:
Employer:... and an extra two weeks of severance if you agree not to sue us.
Employee: Wait... I can sue you?
That's when you say, "no, I won't sign that."
And see how much more they offer you. Sales 101, my man.
Our properties are relatively small, but stay busy. That real estate is way more important to us than it would be in a Harrahs, especially during any given promotion. I've shopped both of those properties:)
I have figures from about a year ago showing a promo year over year. The poker tables were full the first year, gone the second year. Sure, there were some men who were displeased. But, response on the promotion went up (as a result of the men having something to do other than head directly to their table until their wives were broke), and profit on the night is up significantly. It could be a shift in play, but analysis says otherwise - the tables never went back in.

Not sure if serious.

Best AC comment. Ever.
I've been looking at geekoid's sig, since he changed it, in disapproval.
There's like, what, a billion other characters that have no meaning in English writing, even including niche contexts. The tilde is already defined.
Once elected, it didn't.
...Well, there is this whole two term in a bipartisan country problem to deal with.
Let us see what happens in the next 4 before we shout "complete failure," shall we?
Besides the fact that he doesn't actually write the legislature itself, just submits ideas and vetoes.
Or: China: We've been manufacturing all of your hardware for decades. What did you expect?

You're relying on someone telling you that it's true, which is far more fallible than simply using the already enlisted techniques.

Go figure that our legal system would be so damn broken...
This is a feature of iPatent v2.0 and working as intended.
Think of the children! You... you crass bastard.
Your logic and your adblock and your noscript, we don't want your kind here any way.

I deployed three Dell PCoIP thin clients for some public kiosks in a hotel. 16 months ago.
They had the best pricing and the integration with VMView was seamless. What's that about an existing installed base? This is about patents.
