"we could not buy, for any price, a data-center network that would meet the requirements of our distributed systems,"
bullshit. if you told a company that specialized in making toothpicks that you would give them a trillion dollars to build a datacenter with XYZ, they would make it happen. did you offer someone a trillion dollars?
"The cyberattack and cyber security is an issue that we take very seriously,"
"We are increasing our resources and polices to be better equipped to face cyberattacks, whether they are coming from hackers from a group, potentially, that has said they did it today, [or] state-sponsored or terrorist entities."
if they took "cyber security" very seriously, they wouldn't need to increase their resources and they wouldn't have been hacked.
By this time (w/ MS deliberately contributing to Mono no less) estoppel should quash any patent claims.
it's a good thing proving that in court is inexpensive and that they have a moral integrity to not use their vast army of lawyers to just bleed you until you cannot afford to defend yourself.
1) We haven't sued people for using it yet! 2) it's cross-platform (as long as you only use certain parts) 3) we have a single IDE! 4) you can write games with it... as long as it's a Microsoft console. 5) it's incomplete and buggy but were working on that!
sounds just great but why not use C++ and Qt instead?
so a fun anecdote i heard from a friend who works in the biometrics field is that in testing facial recognition software that would track people on a college campus, they found a strange anomaly that there was one person that had been spotted hundreds of times in multiple locations at the same time. after reviewing the footage he realized that the cameras were actually finding bob marley's face on t-shirts.
Of course in a state that knew it had 7 year droughts and a history of 100 YEAR + long droughts the greens managed to get their way and prevent the needed infrastructure from being built.
your unsustainable farming is catching up to you, nothing more. what was the science behind the decision to starting farms in a desert? shortsightedness is a problem... which is why you started farming crops that require the more water of any other crop IN A DESERT.
He said that the difference is that the state has grown in population to 38 million and has vast acres of farmland to irrigate, a problem with which the state cannot be blamed.
the actual populous takes a surprisingly low amount of water. the problem was and always has been the absurd crops they are trying to raise there. the state can't be blamed? who is HEAVILY subsidising water for farmers? THE STATE. who has refused to restrict water to farmlands until now? THE STATE. who has refused to change until it's half a decade too late? THE STATE.
i dont feel bad for California because this is their payment for their tireless efforts, day in and day out to use all the water they possibly can. this isn't a punishment, they earned this.
seriously, isn't the a good example of lawyers that should be disbarred? lying to the court and using the law to harass seems like good reasons to disbar a lawyer.
But your smartphone calendar can notify you even when you don't have service. That's a level of reliability SMS can't touch.
hold the phone, buster! you're trying to tell me that they made an entire calendar work without the internet?! forget hoverboards, the future really has arrived in 2015!
mikrotik make routerboard routers, so that would be RB2011
The RB2011Ui is a low cost multi port device series. Designed for indoor use, and available in many different cases, with a multitude of options.
The RB2011 is powered by RouterOS, a fully featured routing operating system which has been continuously improved for fifteen years. Dynamic routing, hotspot, firewall, MPLS, VPN, advanced quality of service, load balancing and bonding, real-time configuration and monitoring - just a few of the vast number of features supported by RouterOS.
RouterBOARD 2011UiAS-2HnD has most features and interfaces from all our Wireless routers. It’s powered by the new Atheros 600MHz 74K MIPS network processor, has 128MB RAM, five Gigabit LAN ports, five Fast Ethernet LAN ports and SFP cage (SFP module not included!). Also, it features powerful 1000mW dual chain 2.4Ghz (2312-2732MHz depending on country regulations) 802.11bgn wireless AP, RJ45 serial port, microUSB port and RouterOS L5 license, as well as desktop case with power supply, two 4dBi Omni antennas and LCD panel- all this for only $129!
Tested and recommended to use with MikroTik SFP modules: S-85DLC05D, S-31DLC20D and S-35/53LC20D (not included)
RouterBOARD 2011UAS-2HnD-IN comes with desktop enclosure, LCD panel and power supply.
Wall mount kit (product code RBWMK) for network closet is available for purchase as an optional accessory. The RB2011Ui also has passive PoE output capability on the last port (ETH10), this means you can power another device just by connecting it over regular Ethernet cable
seriously, minimum feature set? it has it's own fucking LCD!

What's wrong with having placebos? Placebos work.
yeah, they worked great for Steve Jobs, as i recall.
and some asteroids are made if baking soda!
Yep, you go ahead and laugh because you're too lazy to read the contestor's wikipedia link
i laugh because you are so fucking stupid it's just amazing.
who needs enemies when we have swat teams to "protect us" from shoplifters by destroying our homes. http://www.wnd.com/2015/06/swa...
so can you blame people for wanting to protect themselves?

There are patent issues with every technology.
there are no patents on C++ and even if there were they would have expired by now.
By this time (w/ MS deliberately contributing to Mono no less) estoppel should quash any patent claims.

oh wait.

2) it's cross-platform (as long as you only use certain parts)

We'll see if CV Dazzle becomes fashionable.
even if it did become fashionable, the software would be adapted to deal with such anomalies if it hasn't been already.

LOL!
wikipedia:
With eyeball rotation of about 90 degrees (head rotation excluded, peripheral vision included), horizontal field of view is as high as 270 degrees
right because your eyes are bolted into your head and thus cannot move!
all those wasted seconds spent on your dipshit commentary that nobody should ever fucking see.

Such an event could send us back to the middle ages
is that hyperbolic or do EMPs cause feudalism?
seriously, isn't the a good example of lawyers that should be disbarred? lying to the court and using the law to harass seems like good reasons to disbar a lawyer.
i'm hopeful that soon we will be replacing our organs with regrown versions of our own. they are making excellent progress in this field.
if races are so stressful on the horses that sometimes they break and have to be euthanize, doesn't this type of event count as animal abuse?
just a thought.
suck it cable companies, we dont need you anymore, we just need internet access and-DAMMIT. well played cable companies, well played.
Fermions => cats
Bosons => cows
Bosons heavy and rare which I argue is more like a Ancient Psychic Tandem War Elephant

it doesn't matter if your everyday joe changes or not because it's the software developers that got the wakeup call.
