Recently, I realized how true this is. They're convinced the Microsoft logo is a sure sell. They're entering saturated markets & losing. Now the higher Windows Server costs meant to push people to their cloud are just driving people away.
At high mind-share, anything anti-competitive wins more share, but at low mind-share, it does the opposite. - Closed hardware: ARM devices locked to Windows, Locked-out Boot for Intel/AMD forcing people to make the choice - Closed-cloud: why write Windows server software that's MS Cloud only when you could write Google App Engine software that'll run faster?
Microsoft wants to succeed in becoming incompatible with everyone and everything. With a little more grown-up Office alternatives, the world will have no use for them anymore.
I tried the MTP clients and they're all buggy. Since 13.04's got it built-in, it's nice & fast. It also has been bug-free for me, and I regularly push multi-GB files to SD.
But I've added a 32gb SD card to mine. Pictures go there automatically & downloads play from there fine. It's also just a copy-paste to move big games to the 32gb card.
If you're using 16 + 32 = 48gb on your phone, consider your use-cases.
The cloud movement could have been the next great economic success (mostly in the US), but instead the entire economic opportunity is being shut-down by the very government that it would most benefit.
I've had co-workers thinking that. Encourage them to never have children (since they can selfishly hoard their money better without the children). The next generation has no contact from those selfish members of society. Thus, altruistic behavior continues.
Far from it. Because of the suit improvements, in the last Olympics we saw 3rd-place ahead of the previous record line. And that was in a number of the races. There were support teams for some people helping them stretch. Their meals are carefully made for them while they train. What's unaided?
To be accurate, it would need the same input inaccuracies (pi and pie verbally being the same), combined with the order of learned experiences which influences weighting (pie before pi), combined with a 4-year-old's limited capacity for context, combined with need (eat) & desire (sweet foods).
I don't think that old game matters anymore: 1. Consider ARM systems, including NVidia's efforts to bring their best to ARM. 2. x86's slowing progress means more time customers can wait for porting to complete.
With a 15-year-old yahoo mail account, I can say that my account has sent spam many times. I've changed my password frequently & it doesn't matter if I have a unique, 8 digit password new every few months. And this is with all log-ins on stock latest Ubuntu + latest Chrome behind NAT (fairly safe).
Positives: - Since this turns "A video card driver" into "a low-level hardware driver" + "state machines", and no part is intensively Linux-only, then it could be used to build drivers on other platforms.
Negatives: - Intel thinks it'll be slower than a more integrated driver like what they build already.
I've appreciated game loading screens that show me my regularly-adjusted variables (weapon choice, health status), the next story segment in an adventure game, or even a static graphic of something I may encounter. My favorite loading screen is the last level's stats. For "business UIs", I'd go for a "tips & tricks" entry.
As someone who repaired Lotus Notes for 5 years & actually looked at Ray's code comments, I can say it's quite the failure vs today's replacements. But in the '80s when Ray made it, it: - was one of the few cross-platform, supported mail servers. - worked with more languages than any program: Unicode was based on its LMBCS format. - openly-documented its data formats. - has many extension APIs and ways including a BASIC clone (the common language of the time). - could send signed messages between companies & be spam-free. - has a 'big data' storage design (replicate-able document store) used today (but built poorly). - was many servers in 1 install (back when that was the goal). - still has a 15x faster mail router than Outlook (that one's new).
So it's lousy now because it was ahead of its time then (and couldn't change when the world went another direction). We could be so lucky to get a new product with as many ideas ahead of their time as came from Lotus Notes in the '80s.
Agreed. We need specific terms like "non-Win8-only-x86" and "Windows 8 compatible." Anything can be a tablet or have a keyboard now, but the control & use depends on the hardware.
Microsoft's XBox line actually has done a lot to lure game makers away from Windows & further the x86 decline. Now it's only legacy software & yet-to-be-ported software that Windows runs as there's not much new development there. (Lack of) Economies of scale are taking its toll on all of x86.
Either Tablets will be it and the "follow MS" hardware makers will accept their decline, or there will be a Linux x86 backlash (which I'm not expecting), and there's no reason for even Android to push for it since it just helps Intel/Windows.
That's why I think citizens need to strike at something so foundational in the problem that no-one's going to defend it. For example: - Right now the obligations for short-term profits at public corporations are by a court decision. Overturn that and allow not-profit-motivated decisions to be legal (possibly in line with a charter, or optionally not). - I'm sure other things would work. This one is the first that came to mind.
Only the download size is getting "padded" & that's automatic in the background. Unless you request the editor, that DLL, it won't load. Ram & Start-up should be unaffected.
Bingo! You've hit the "social problem" most techies have.
I'd like to extend your answer to include those people working tech support before developing technology. Not only would that improve the world's tech support, it would teach social skills necessary to quickly connect & relate. And it's not "delaying top talent", but building advanced collaborative skills. I can personally say I needed that stage to be the developer I am now.
Having visited there, I have a greater appreciation of the problem: they can't grow for any reasonable cost. Why? - Huge mountains on both sides that it's extremely unsafe an an earthquake-prone area to build atop. - The finest silt sand all the way down. Build anything heavy and it'll start to sink. - Earthquake & "Green" expectations / requirements (to your point). Though being one of the most toxic urban areas in the US, "Green" requirements are not unfair. - The land's all taken: Something (possibly over 100 years old) must go for something new, and the new, high-density thing will be bigger, so you must find a group of neighbors willing to sell.
AMD's failing in direct x86 competition. Hybrids may be interesting, though could be done at the board level. x86+Video integration hasn't worked well, and part of this is expense when putting too much on the same die.
MS pushes WinRT to confuse, which would threaten something like that. Now that Intel can make 6+ hour laptops and Android can run on x86, what's the advantage of all that work?
My first number is 3 times bigger than my second one. Multiplying the first one by 1.014 and the second one by 1.023 will increase the gap. That's Android growing faster than IOS.
Cost-savvy emerging markets want cheap devices. They'll also want it to replace a PC. More connections (dusb host adapter, flash slots, display) & fewer app restrictions make that an Android win.
The goals of dies & flavors (as a concept) is to confuse bad for good. A confused population is less free to make self-interested choices. What is your goal in encouraging this?
My goal in this response chain is to denounce dies. If any one is a medicine, it should be just that.
I bow to your vast knowledge. Do share the health benefits of color, the died yet unsweetened food you eat, and what natural foods with bright colors that are not fruit you eat.

Regeneration was found in some mice last year. Mammals is an even closer subgroup.

We have a ways to go.

The last major jQuery jump dropped IE8 & older support because there were too many quirks they didn't want to bloat everyone's use of the lib with.

Mod UP! A few policy changes and the population will war-less-ly (?) shrink from now on.
Though modprobe bcache is probably cheaper.
