Maybe he can get them to stop the confusing mess of which features are enabled and disabled across the lines of chips. I hate having to dig through the Intel Ark to find out which used sku's have ECC memory support, which ones have IOMMU support, which ones have vPro, which ones have AES-NI, etc.
Especially galling is the ECC support, as it's enabled and disabled seemingly at random throughout the consumer space (where AMD has it across the board.)
For reference of just how small a punishment this is to Facebook, 645,000 divided by 80 million is 0.0080625. Less than one cent (GBP? Euro?) per affected user.
This is actually really REALLY old technology. Streetcars used this at the dawn of American cities, and I'm somewhat curious if having a dual-use (Streetcar and electric automobile) network could propel a faster switch from IC engines and towards better public transit in one fell swoop. While the idea of trolleys and streetcars using overhead wiring is more common, plenty of US cities used in-road electric rails (most notably Washington DC see links)

Seriously. It's amazing. I'm using it on a PIII 1.0 ghz 512 PC133 box that I use as a server. It impressed me so much that I switched from AVG (which was slowing down my Core i5 box) and now don't even notice a scan. I cannot recommend Bitdefender enough.
The Soviet Union didn't "give up" on anything. They were one of the world's leading powers with all the benefits of such. Then they had Chernobyl explode and immediately suck "9 Billion Rubles" out of their economy. During a major recession. Add to this that the 9 Billion figure flouted by Gorbachev is likely much MUCH smaller than the real cost between 1986 and the fall of the Soviet Union. (We know this, as the true costs today are much higher, even adjusted for inflation.)
Apple illustrated the idea with discussion of a USB port and SD card reader, showing how the card reader and USB port could be integrated, but the port could house other interconnects.
The summary is misleading in so many ways. This is just adding USB to a multi-card reader.
Okay, lets take your example of Supermarkets. Most of them are union. The only major non-union Supermarket in my area is Wal-Mart. Working for a Union outfit, I do have to pay more in union dues. But I make whole hell of a lot more working for a union place than I ever would at Wal-Mart. Everyone I know at Wal Mart is on the edge, barely making ends meet, and on assistance programs, such as Food Stamps, TANF, etc. (California already recognizes the problem here, drafting a new law where by places where workers are encouraged to use Food Stamps to make up their shortfall in pay would be fined $6000. That number is based strictly off of Wal Mart, where each employee on Food Stamps costs CA $5,990 per employee.)
Now tell me again how less regulation and less power to the Unions is a good thing again? We've been there before. Individual citizens are powerless against Grover Cleveland and the U.S. Marshals.
Considering this is Japan, I'm pretty sure they got the idea from Ghost in the Shell. The Major often times references performing a Back Hack, to determine the location of an attacker. Now if only I could teach Windows how to enter Autistic Mode...
I'm actually rather disappointed. See, theoretically most Anon members are North American or European. Countries in these particular areas have been really turning a blind eye on anything that isn't Afghanistan, Iraq, or off Sudan's shores. So - presume a drug cartel starts picking off lots of citizens in Hometown U.S.A just because of their I.P. addresses. Even if said people were involved directly or just host to a zombie client, it would instantly make the national news. People would demand answers. Politicians would be forced to act - especially with campaign season coming up. So in effect any mass-scale "meatspace" retaliation against Anon would have set off some serious fireworks.

They should be selling the 64-bit version. They should be preinstalling the 64-bit version. People *shouldn't* be using the 32-bit version, becuase there's still a very real architectural limitation in the 32-bit version: a given process can only see 3 GB of memory, no matter how you set up your licensing.
There is one very real exception to this rule, in the current market: the netbook. Netbooks tend to have less than 2GB (or only 1GB if Windows is installed - once again MS licensing greed) and the Atom is currently a 32-bit processor if I'm not mistaken. Could be wrong, but even so netbooks and people who specifically *need* 32-bit should be the only ones buying it. Almost all new computers being sold have 64-bit processors regardless of memory installed - why preinstall 32?
I'm not sure which is greater, but suicide rates among transsexuals are closely rivaled by suicide rates among (American) Indians, specifically the age group of my generation (as opposed to the older folk.)
You fail, sir. They are in fact working as a massive team to solve a problem, hence fitting the basic criteria of a Beowulf Cluster. They just use biochemical processing instead of silicon hardware, communicating with meows and loaded gestures instead of ethernet.
One of my local tack shops is staffed by a lady who had her bell rung enough times being thrown from her horse (sans helmet in those days) that she can't ride for risk of getting her last concussion. And she makes sure that everyone starting has a good *properly* fitting helmet. (Even someone with as big a head as me - finding proper fitting hats is a lifelong challenge!)
So no. Concussions are not limited to only American Football.
We don't have to kill you to challenge you. We can make a monster that affects your mobility, we can make a monster that has different kinds of attacks that are dangerous to you and that you actually have to avoid. And so it makes the combat a lot more interesting."
As opposed to what... ice-based attacks that freeze/slow? Poison that drains health? And what, avoiding those *&^*&^ Pit Lords and Abyss Knights at the River of Flame? Yeah, I don't see anything new here, ffs. As someone who likes fending off PVP'ers in the middle of fighting demons, I'd prefer being in control of my health, rather than being dependent on monster drops. Just having a system where potions in your inventory were dropped to your 'belt' hot-bar automatically would be an improvement far beyond the orb system.

Simple, cheaper than buying a new laptop, and easily mounted in cars and trucks. As long as you mount it in a smart manner and remember to lock it, you're golden. http://www.tuffyproducts.com/p-256-182-laptop-computer-security-lockbox.aspx

Maya, your case is very interesting. Have you tried contacting researchers at any of the big U.S. research hospitals?

So this is why I idle 24/7 in a vain attempt for a pithy sniper hat...
Kentucky used to be like this until A.B "Happy" Chandler closed the loophole. Guess what? We're still here and doing as well as anyone in the US.

You're not smart. You're not a scientist. You're not a doctor. You're not even a full-time employee. Where did your life go so wrong?
