If you haven't tried VirtualDub you need to go do so. That nobody here even speaks of it is mounting testament to the declining mental health of this community.
The DLSE took the claim. They could not come to a decision, mediation failed, and thus they said "Leave this up to the courts since there's a similar case working through the system right now. After that, you should have more clarity and recourse through the courts."
That case was this Uber case. Now that this has been settled with various things clarified, it's time to file.
I went to the DLSE here in California and filed a complaint. Nothing ever happened out of it, and I'm currently getting a bunch of other former drivers together to get the ball rolling in a real suit.
"It's an unbelievable headache to get your average GPS unit updated with Windows (I'm familiar with TomTom), much less any other alternatives you might suggest."
1. Remove SD card from GPS unit 2. Plug card into computer 3. Download upgrade software onto SD card 4. Insert SD card into GPS device 5. Turn it on.
It's been that way with every TomTom, Garmin, and other GPS unit I've used. What shitty unit are you using that requires Windows to update it?
"Those of us who have been Microsoft-free for decades will be here to help whenever you're ready."
You're only ready to help when you can get your man pages and documentation in an actual readable fucking condition, which is why most people I try to get to use Linu go "Fuck that noise."
And then it doesn't help you and your bretheren scream "READ THE MANUAL!" when someone asks for help. Your fucking manual might as well be written in Martian.
Learn how to explain the how and whys of things in your documentation, and maybe you'll get more users.
Until then, you guys are going to forever remain shit-tier in desktop rankings.
The company and its franchisees pull the independent contractor status all the goddamned time while doing all they can to violate California law - charging you for uniforms (illegal under CA law) deduction of tips from credit card purchases (illegal just about anywhere) refusal to pay mileage reimbursement (IRS law violation) and much, much more.
John Schnatter is a class-A business criminal and needs to be taken to task by the courts.
I've done the same. This unplanned upgrade hosed two production systems of mine, after spending two months getting everything set to actually work on Windows 7.
Hosed my music production machine and the machine used for coding my game project.
"patent pending methodology strips the M.A.C. addresses from packet headers and compares them to the M.A.C. addresses of known stolen devices in its database"
Most of this is so obvious to anybody in IT that this should be immediately un-patentable.
" As an example, I have been trying to set up an XMPP-server of my own and for some reason Pidgin-users can transfer files to other Pidgin-users and Conversations (an Android-based XMPP-client) users can send files to other Conversations-users, but Pidgin-to-Conversations or Conversations-to-Pidgin doesn't work."
That's because Pidgin is a piece of shit multi-client, even file transfers between Pidgin-Pidgin over Yahoo or AIM networks fail all the time. XMPP works just fine, it's fucking Pidgin.
"Apparently people on the drug are seeing higher incidences of HPV (genital warts), herpes, gonorrhea, chlamydia, and syphilis."
Read the summary a bit closer: "Other studies have also had to be stopped because it was clear subjects who were on a placebo were suffering from noticeably higher rates of infection."
Which is rather to be expected since these people think that they can fuck without protection, and were on a PLACEBO.
Cover that greenhouse with solar panels and use LED, and you're practically home-free. Even in Antarctica, which while not pictured, actually gets LONG periods of constant sunlight and thus has a higher yearly irradiance in many locations, versus say Australia.
"Plants only absorb light in the red visible spectrum and parts of the ultraviolet spectrum"
Nope. Red and blue are just the quickest to be absorbed, while green actually passes through more easily and bounces around more easily, and primarily powers growth under the canopy. When plants reflect (actually re-transmit) green, you're only seeing certain wavelengths of green coming back at you. That's because there are hundreds to thousands of biological pathways that works with various wavelengths of light, and are absorbing them and re-emitting a photon with a lower energy level.
Plants evolved under full spectrum sunlight. Of the visible light that makes it through the atmosphere, green has the highest amount of overall energy. For plants to not utilize it would be ungodly wasteful. Too much blue is damaging to chlorophyll. Too much red can cause premature flowering/reproduction.

"routers do packet filtering in hardware"
Every 82599 network card in my PC does hardware-level packet filtering, try again.
Turn in your geek card because you're not worth your name.

Yup, let's see her wipe data stored in a database she doesn't control.

Tom Tom Go 300. Download update from Tom Tom website, copy to card, plug into Tom Tom, turn on Tom Tom. Done.
I've never had to do anything else for any other Tom Tom with removable storage.

"Besides, the EULA probably says you have to agree to arbitration"
I didn't read nor sign an EULA to this forced upgrade. Guess what that means?
Null and fucking void.

"Since most of my games are through Steam anyway, I am hoping that increased adoption of a Valve console would lead to something of a PC version."
So download SteamOS and walk away from Windows for good.

Too scared of the real-world consequences, coward?

The fact the version number starts with V-ZERO tells me this is a product not even ready for public usage.

Actual sunlight efficiency - ~93 l/w
Current non-lab LED efficiency - 220+ l/w (Cree MK-R) with 300+ l/w already having been announced months ago.
Of course, people in the horticulture game are using the 110 l/w - 130 l/w LEDs, instead of the easily-available 180+ l/w LEDs out now.
LEDs have such efficiency that solar powering the entire thing is the way to go, and has been for a few years.
Go shop alibaba. You can get them even cheaper.
