No they don't. Not in any way. You have the complete option of installing an application and all its dependencies in a private folder. I do it all the time.
Just to clarify, when you say "Alpha Particles" and "Beta Particle" are not dangerous unless ingested, what you really mean is, "Alpha Particle EMITTERS" and "Beta Particle EMITTERS" are not too dangerous unless ingested. Once the Alpha Particle or Beta Particle is emitted by decay, it flys off with a given energy until it rams into somethinng (like your DNA). Now, if the emitter is outside your body, your skin will pretty much stop it and unless the source is particularly strong, you're in little danger. But, if you ingest the emitter, then as the Alpha and Beta Particles (Alpha is two protons and two neutrons, if memory serves correctly, basically equivalent to a fast moving helium nuclei with an extra neutron, Beta particles are fast moving, free electrons and positrons).
NOTE: I'm 100% sure you know all of the above and isn't meant to correct you, but, to help clarify for others who might not know. I felt that the way you said, "unless alpha and beta particles are ingested" could be misunderstood by someone who hasn't read about this subject much.
No, that really wouldn't work. Every "sleep" system I'm aware of doesn't work like that and can't. Before "sleeping", the system must put various devices into particular states and then, before waking, bring them back into the appropriate state. Think network connections, wireless, etc, etc.
There's no way I can tell what kind of changes are in a release without the version number telling the whole story. Too bad they don't have some kind of document like "Release Notes" or a "Changelog" or something. Then we could know exactly what was changing and be sure to do some appropriate testing before rolling out.
I am the IT Manager of a mid-sized Health Care company of about 150 employees. I am currently preparing to switch all our users from using IE to FF (with IE Tab Extension for IE-Only sites/applications). Why? The feature-set of FF is far more standard and is MUCH MUCH faster for just about everything we need to do with our custom-built in-house and web-based business partner applications. For all our internal stuf, we will continue to test with IE to make sure it is as least marginally usable, but, we're not going to worry about the worthless performance of IE any longer. Trust me, it is not even a competition. FF and Chrome both are orders of magnitude faster in every way (actual use). You don't need a stopwatch to see it either. You just need to use it. The difference is DRAMATIC. Testing and deploying new version of FF every 3 months will be absolutely zero problem. Anyone who finds that challenging, should probably be in another profession.
The fine for the employer is a simple cost of doing business. Save $100,000.00 per month on wages, pay an $10,000.00 fine now and then. Getting sent back to their "Home Country" is life-devastating for the "Criminal Brown People". Not the same thing at all.
Do you ever speed? J-Walk? Ever run a stop-sign? If you answer "Yes" to any of those questions (or similar questions) you are as much a "Criminal" as they are. If you claim to be able to answer "No" to all such questions, then you're a LIAR!
I donated significant money to the Obama campaign. If this doesn't stop by Sunday, and congress hasn't approved this action, I'd think that congress should file articles of impeachment. Sorry, but the President cannot be above the law.
is that the ICE and border guard hasn't managed to implement an automated neutron scanner yet, but a 17-years-old kid managed to
Well, here is another example proving that most of what people say on the internet is complete bullshit. Everytime there is something I actually KNOW FOR CERTAIN BECAUSE I WAS THERE I see tons of comments by people, including reporters and new organizations, that show they don't know WTF they are talking about yet they shoot off their mouths like they actually know something. In fact, ICE/CBP DOES have automated neutron detectors, and they don't rely on radiating. They are passive. They use Sodium-Iodide Crystals to detect Gamma Radiation and Helium 3 detectors for Neutrons. They are highly sensitive. I know, because I worked as a contractor developing software for the management and control of the systems. I also helped to deploy them in England, Amsterdam, and place in the US, and helped to test them at Nevada Test Site.
It's comments like the parent that reminde how full of shit most people, including so-called professionals, actually are. The problem is people actually believe whoever shoots off their mouth the loudest, most frequently, in the most obnoxious manner. Most people have never produced anything of value in their entire life and yet go around shooting off their mouth at every opportunity.
No, they wouldn't. They'd be represented as mult-byte characters. You'd still have a password consisting of some number of bits. How would you enter the Chinese character? Do you have keyboard with all the thousands of characters? No? Then you'd need to enter the unicode equivalent (e.g \u2023 or somesuch). Which would end up being between 2 and 6 bytes. Why not just type 2 to 6 other characters. It would be nearly equivalent.
Netflix, gives me, for the most part, exactly what I want in television watching. I pay a reasonable monthly fee. When I want to watch a movie, there is a selection of B-movies and older classics (I use the term lightly) for me to choose from. No commercials. Nice!
I pay my cable/internet bill on-time and regularly. I watch on average 1.25 moviews per day. AS far as I can tell, everyone wins. I'll never go back to straight cable. If netlix dies, I'll throw the TV in the trash and be done with it.

Getting your ass whipped with a belt is not abuse unless it is routine and not for correction. People need to grow up.
because there's no marketing and they often aren't carried by the stores.
So, just WTF were the 1,400 marketers doing then? Apparently not their job. Maybe that's why they were purged.
No they don't. Not in any way. You have the complete option of installing an application and all its dependencies in a private folder. I do it all the time.
You've been playing too many first person shooters.
That's a pretty slippery slope
I don't think that means what you think it means.

Do LED backed LCDs use a phosphor coating?
No. (This is Slashdot I'm on right now isn't it?)
Since when is Java a "Register-Based VM"? I have never heard that. Is that true? Citation please.
No, that really wouldn't work. Every "sleep" system I'm aware of doesn't work like that and can't. Before "sleeping", the system must put various devices into particular states and then, before waking, bring them back into the appropriate state. Think network connections, wireless, etc, etc.
Justified or not people^H^H^H^H^H^HSNOBS buy lattes.
There fixed that for ya'. People buy COFFEE!
Thank you, I'm here all week!

Before you blame another for the speck in his eye, first deal with the plank in your own.

Wow! Way to lose an argument! You lost that one faster than Sulu could fire-dive into.....ahhh never mind, fuck it!
so it disappeared into the toothy jowels of rabid rats caged upon its face!

Google doesn't get off scott-free even though the license for Android permits a delay. The license for Webkit absoulutely DOES NOT permit a delay.
We have a WINNER!
