Ugh, I hated that Office toolbar, and how everyone would put it on the right side, hidden. Go to scroll on someone else's PC: Surprise! Office Toolbar! Go to the upper right hand to close an application: Surprise! Office Toolbar!
Call me when one AI designed to talk to a human and another AI designed to talk to a human can hold a conversation with each other that a human can eavesdrop on and believe it's two humans talking.
By providing a less secure, but computationally and administratively cheaper, method of encryption, we might be able to increase the depressingly small fraction of encrypted traffic on the Internet.
If the encryption is computationally cheaper, then the decryption is computationally cheaper. I'd rather people know that what they're sending over the 'net can be sniffed than have them think that because example.com uses Rot13 encryption their traffic is private.
I know that Dells have auto-power-on times in their BIOS and their BIOS can be configured by Dell apps in Windows, DOS, and portions of the BIOS in Linux.
U6 has one of the best conversation systems I've ever seen in a game. It's all HTMLified, but it doesn't feel like you're forced into choosing one of three/four options like successive RPGs require.
What this boils down to is that when going from air to water, anything that isn't bolted down is going to come flying forward and that will include human bodies, even if they are strapped into their seats.
Seriously, did NO ONE think about this part yet?
I saw an episode of Smash Lab once where they dropped an emergency boat from a great height (a plane), and essentially shot the water just before impact to make a lot of bubbles. I'm sure DARPA could come up with a better gas-impregnating method for the water. Also, they don't _have_ to come straight at the water full speed; landing on the water then diving might be an option.
In the command prompt where the error message showed up after typing something. You don't get "missing library $FOO" messages when you click on a desktop icon.
I get dibs on being MacGyver! Sorry, but I called it. Someone else can take the nerdy professor, I bet the alien guy is going to go quick, so someone should call that.
Forget all of them, I call Samantha Carter so I can stare at a female behind while I'm harvesting naquadah/naquadria to craft my personal zat'nik'tel.
It's like playing with Lego Mindstorms that you're not allowed to touch until after hours, so you do a lot of Lego CAD modeling during normal work hours to make sure your rebuild goes well. Only part of that was a metaphor.
little lego blocks representing servers would be fine.
I know the next LEGO® Town set: Data Center. It would have racks that the minifigs slide 3x5x1 flat blocks into, and a fold-up computer display. Months of fun play.
But after you ruminate on it for awhile, you realize that people just assume a long boot time
I still get surprised when my gaming rig boots up in 8-9 seconds, and it's using RAID0 on four drives (with frequent off-system backups of saved games). Having an OS ready with a login prompt at five seconds would make it seem blazing fast.
FYI to any meta-mods who read context: my parent post was a legitimate criticism, not an attempt to troll. Entry into iPhone development is _not_ inexpensive for someone without an Apple computer.
Also, scheduled (or manual) defrags don't defrag the swap file since it's an in-use system file.
I once saw a pagefile.sys with >10,000 fragments on a user's disk after he reported performance issues.
Had to remove the pagefile, defrag(2x), then set a large static size and warn him not to reset to dynamic no matter how much vram he thought Visual Studio needed.
"Sure, IVTV says it supports Hauppauge WinPVR 150 cards, but it doesn't work." "Oh, you must have something weird, maybe Hauppauge changed their chipset."
Whatever. I don't like the whole "pass-the-buck" culture.
So, "maybe Hauppauge changed their chipset" wasn't coupled with a request for you to run lspci and see what it said? Hardware manufacturers are notorious for making their Windows drivers forward-compatible when they know they might switch from chip-maker X to chip-maker Y. Even worse, they often make these changes and don't even revise the model number for the device.
So if I read TFS correctly, the real universe is chock-full of matter (turtles in all directions, not just down), but our known universe is a vacuum bubble in the matter?

Methinks someone is trying to CYA by passing the buck to a mouse.
There are three animals in this sentence. How many can you find?

I don't think anyone is foolish enough to think compulsively following any technical treadmill will lead to any overall financial gain..
Unless gasoline/petrol is involved.
And if it is exploded perfectly straight up and made of lead, then it's all three.

Each word is chosen based on very static definitions.
It would be great for things that are supposed to be slow, like glacial movements, or static, like 3D building plans.

Moreover, they would take ownership of not just what they paid for, but also my changes leading up to this moment
After those changes have been released under BSD?

I still wonder how they shoot the desert scenes in Vancouver. ahh, the magic of CGI.
It is on the coast; there might be a few sand dunes that they keep reusing.

Isn't that glxgears' job?
