No, Windows 8 is Alpha. Windows 10 is Beta. And both still ROUTINELY lose keyboard and mouse after booting into Windows/coming out of sleep mode (works just fine to access BIOS/UEFI before Windows takes over, and this problem doesn't occur in Windows 7.)
What about for the geology geek/rock hound/pebble pup? They'd love for you to get them some opals, or fire agates, or celestite, or maybe some lapis, or perhaps a massive Moroccan trilobite.
Not all geeky children gifts need to be technology-based. You aren't going to get a rockhound geek encouraged to get out and learn more by giving them a calculator.
Slashdot's playing a really stupid exclusionary game by basically denying geekdom to massive subsets of science with this Ask Slashdot thread, especially since the originally-referenced thread practically was meant for Geologists.
WhipSlash, you and everyone else should know better than this. What a goddamned shame.
What was that? I can't hear you over the sound of me closing up shop for Southern California's oldest mineralogical and lapidary society, where we have such equipment.
Only if you don't possess vacuum kiln equipment. Plenty of hobbyist lost wax casting types do and you could probably bug them for a repair for fifty bucks or so.
This is something well-known to anyone with actual culinary experience. See sea salt vs table salt. Same principle applies to sugar - make if finer, you find that you actually end up using LESS because of more even distribution for same effect.
Nestle is literally trying to patent that which has been known for fucking centuries by any generally-knowledgeable housewife or cook or chef.
Until you can tell us what these cells can provide via voltage and amperage so we know the total energy density/capacity, fuck off with this bullshit hype story. Sure it's neat, but unless it gives us the geeky details, keep that shit set aside for the plebs.
One of my former co-workers from the porno business got a job at Amazon. She quit within a week and told me "I'd rather go back to the porno shop, at least there they bother to give you lube for when you get fucked."
That alone tells me all I need to know about Amazon, and I'll never shop there. If one of my co-workers from a very tough industry couldn't hack something supposedly so simple and benign as Amazon warehouse work when she had no problems sorting and packing and selling boxes of DVDs and lube and sex toys, there's something seriously fucking wrong with Amazon's management and policies and procedures.
The hardware allows it and has since WAY BACK (Like Sound Blaster Live using kX drivers you could route anything anywhere.)
And with things like the newer Windows Sound System (Win7+) you can now surreptitiously and maliciously make it so that your malware can listen in on a specific program. You couldn't do that in XP, as XP didn't have per-program audio control.
I guess you've never used a landline (or rather, paid the bill to one) in your life. Usually, the bill comes with a full listing of all dialed numbers.
The reason Google Earth sucks on my phone is because I can't toss in my LANDSAT 8 and BLM overlays live from the respective servers. Can you use these on your HTC Vive version, or are we still talking PC Master race, here?
Office Depot, Best Buy, Staples, etc. are all guilty of this. I walk in with a system just to test them. 95% of the time, they get caught in an outright lie.
So when your mobo goes out, you have essentially zero chance of recovering your data without risking de-soldering your shit from the board and damaging it in the process.

Sheeeit, with Linux your CLI command code to do the same thing is at least double that length.
Apparently you're just as dumb if you think just knowing the regular IP is going to fix shit with a hosed DHCP config..
"I fixed that sentence for you."
No, you didn't, you introduced punctuational fuckups (such as missing a space after your comma between the quoted "service, but".)

"You can't dumb charge lipos"
You can dumb charge anything. Is it SAFE to do so? Not necessarily.
...enjoy a historically reasonably-stable or rising price of goods, and don't have to rely upon this speculative bullshit.
I type this as I hold roughly fifteen thousand dollars of opal in my hands.
Life is a 'pump and dump' scheme. Long-term, but still one and the same.
People with real experience, unlike anonymous children such as yourself, believe me.

PS - I'm the shop coordinator.
Just use Chrome, which has its own Flash baked-in.
Uh, my dual-sim phone has LTE/4G connectivity. I'm using it to post right now.

" But seriously, it is nigh impossible to function on ecstasy"
Bullshit. I've had zero problems functioning on real MDMA (opposed to the speed and heroin mixballs people sell as 'ecstacy'.)
It's been widely known that use of cannabis affects blood flow in THE ENTIRE BODY.

Please. Out of any company I can imagine (even including Microsoft) there is no other company that suffers from NIH than Google.
Funny, it explicitly says in listing "GIGABYTE - PC Components - - Legacy - GC-RAMDISK"
That's the iram. I own two. It is exactly both an HDD and software RAMDISK.
Who's the sockpuppet, here?

This is why removable storage is important.
