What you mean is people won't be able to use it to shuffle the same pop music and Hollywood films back and forth to each other. Real communication is still feasible.
Also, with the "shops and various sites operating beacons" part they've brought back the dudes with the powerful linear on their CB rig.
Wow. In Pohl and Kornbluth's novel "The Space Merchants" there were obnoxious advertisements that would pop up as you tried to walk down the sidewalk. This furthers us toward that future.
I'm not sure what's more repelling about your comments in this topic. Your incorrect explanations, or the way you flame other people for their incorrect understanding.
Suffice it to say you don't know shit about what you're talking about. For instance, the line drops on a two meter cable run of DC or AC are going to be the same. (We're talking 60 hertz, right? There will be significant drop on a 400Mhz voltage if the line isn't impedance matched.)
I'd say "go take a class about electronics" but judging from the tone you take here you'd spend the whole time arguing with the instructor thus fucking over the other class attendees. So just sit in your darkness. But shut up.
PWM can be accomplished by many drive methods, using an NPN or PNP or MOSFET transistor. Or a JFET or I suppose a triode vacuum tube, among other options. Do you know anything about semiconductors (and tubes)?
One of the things I like a lot about NetBSD is that the 'default' GUI is the Tab Window Manager. The base install ISO for NetBSD-i386 is still only 321MB. You add what you want to using Pkgsrc. No croft, no unneeded shit.
It'd be nice to see Dell waste Apple in the PC marketplace, while Apple is fiddling around with consumer devices and cellphones, the modern equivalent of selling sugar water to children.
It's something to hope for, but at this point just a dream.
The thing that I know for certain is that with my latest computer 'upgrade' at work, they pulled the old Dell shitbox and put a Hewlett Packard shitbox in it's place. Hopefully Dell is less interested in producing corporate shitboxes from now on.
Don't most of us disable digs? It makes me nervous once in awhile, because it's been so long since I had sigs visible that I'm not sure what mine say, or if I even have one. It's not worth navigating through the mess that account config on here is to find out, though.
Some of us hate ALL brands. At which point our criticism is elevated to another level. Unfortunately too many people insist that everyone needs to seek refuge in one brand or another. To the point where they insist that define the parameters of discussion. I am typing this on a Windows phone (Nokia). It sucks in some ways. So do my Android phone and the iOS devices I've owned.
It should be possible to block fonts right in a browser's configuration. When content is important it should be easy to strip out "styling."
Just something that would be nice, similar to the "block images from this server" right-click option in Seamonkey. Much nicer than the typical adblock addon.
The even more lucrative operations are like Angie's List. Where they charge the businesses being reviewed and also charge the people who want to read the reviews.
I have a co-worker for whom 'go to the police' is always his default response.
Some scumbag operation glued a 'notice' at the entryway to our house about a month ago. It says 'Call this number immediately' but has nothing at all on it identifying what entity or organization put the note up. Right now the 'notice' has now weathered itself off the side of the house and is deteriorating on the porch because we've ignored it.
Dude at work said 'you should call the police' because... yeah, I want some cop in my living room so I can show them the piece of paper. He's sort of a dork.
Just to tack on a little evangelist comment, though I'm far from a Microsoft fanboy:
If people want to actually try a Windows phone at a fairly low cost, you can buy a T-Mobile Locked Nokia 521 at Walmart for $49. Then you can buy a month on the WalMart exclusive month-at-a-time plan for $39. This package gets you a different SIM to install in your new phone and entitles you to be on the cheap $30 a month WalMart plan. Which gives you 100 minutes voice and 'unlimited' data and text. The Data is speed-capped at about 5GB.
This package will let you give a try to Windows Phone at a very inexpensive no-commit price. The $39 package includes your first $30 month, so you're paying about $9 to get on that plan.
So for those who want to give a try to Windows Phone you can get a month on it for roughly $100 all expenses included, and $30 a month for 'unlimited' data after that point. It's worth checking out if you have a benjamin to toss at experimenting. You own the phone for the $49 and can use it strictly with WiFi. If you want to be really cheap and just try Windows Mobile on WiFi or as a testbed to try developing on it, buy the thing and don't buy time on any T-Mobile plan or package.
It doesn't matter. Almost all the apps suck on every platform.
Windows phone has most of the important 'flagship' apps and far fewer of the total shit apps. There are a number of total-shit apps in the store, but they stick out for what they are.

Mac servers? You mean that SE/30 running the Pokeytalk network, with the Laserwriter attached to it?

Global Warming might make it an easier place to work.
Is there anything I should add to my ~/.cshrc file to protect against this bug?

Then eventually they'll install banks of RS-232 ports and 'throwback' dumb terminals for free use.
So you are saying Apple is equivalent to those companies you named? Many of us agree.
Do you get overtime when Apple fucks up this badly and you have to come on Slashdot to protect them?
Nexus devices don't have SD slots. Because google finds it harder to sift through your data when it's not on their 'cloud.'

Eisenhower also in the same speech warned of becoming captive to a scientific -technological elite. Funny how seldom that part is mentioned.
Better yet, stop taking the money and let the states and local governments do that as needed.

That's right. Sales numbers are THE measure of success. Especially here on Slashdot.
