Clearly, you have never developed anything, ever. Go look at a driver version number, then ask Nvidia why they bother updating it over 200 times a year, since it clearly works!
Martin Cooper said on the show "How William Shatner Changed the World", well, right from Wiki:
"The show then examines the life of Martin Cooper, the chief engineer at Motorola, who invented the cell phone. Cooper states that Star Trek was his inspiration for the cell phone, and discusses the similarities between the modern day cell phone and a Star Trek communicator. He also discusses how Star Trek introduced the concept of computer voice recognition dialing."
While i was reading that, my Galaxy S3 interrupted me with a Star Trek reference from a friend via text. Scifi is only Fiction until someone watches your show and says: "Wow, that communicator thing is cool. I want one. My name is Martin Cooper."
90% of laptops run on 3 cell series, 2 cell parallel packs. They only reason they don't fit is so they can force you to buy new packs. that is a fact. That is why Think pads run on ~16 volts, while the rest of the world uses 19v.
As an electrical engineer, i know the formulas. The 10pF cap would not maintain the LEDs, i know. It would, however, smooth the attack of the flicker. So even tho it would still be flickering, it would be far less noticible. Also, yes, a small amount of power would be consumed, but a good tantalum / high quality film cap would minimize this.
See, i buy LCD's knowing that 800nits is daylight-visible-bright. I also don't buy screens advertising over 10k:1 contrast. While they look great, they hurt your eyes. So my 300nit, 3000:1 20" LCD isn't Apple Cinema picture quality, but, it's perfect for autocad.
My laptops are at full bright usually, my desktop lcds are usually around 80%. My rooms typically have >10klux of light. I like bright. But as i said before, never had a problem with flicker on a working monitor.
Add a 10pF cap, no more flicker. But seriously, i have had ZERO experience with this. None of the 20+ laptop/desktop screens we have at work, or my screens at home (TV/computer) flicker at all. They are all cheap crap LEDLCD's. A few are the newer LEDIPS. Zero flicker. Even when filmed with 60hz cameras, no flicker at all.
yes i missed the sarcasm, but across the entire USA and Canada ain't "Localized," boyo. Comparing our weather patterns over the past 100 years is enough to show drastic changes.

Do you have a scruffy beard too?
50 years.
Sometimes when charged, Apple lawyers cause a "pants on fire" scenario. Seems familiar.
Civil Engineers...
"Officer, i couldnt have been going 120mph. My speedo only goes to 85!"
Its an excuse. Duh. Upgrading teh equipment would make them look even worse.

And they likely patched the problem on PC. Apple drivers are harder to patch.
That type of butt-hurt, mindless rage can only come from the religious. We smart people only keep you around for the entertainment.
Better than being on the side of a politician.
I have two friends dieing of prostate cancer. When can this happen? Are they doing human testing? Cause i know some guys....

I'm sure there is a pill for that.
Disapproval will be interpreted as treason.

Charging a 10pF cap will consume less power. That's a fact. And since i deal with PWM every day, i'm going to say, yes, it will help.

But, you can't trust the test suite if you didn't write it!

i know! i freakin loved him! I sure love his company. maybe newegg is in on this?
Done it. It was fun and functional, but you have to do everything you can to keep the condensation out. Fast a hell tho!

so.... the weather hasn't changed where you live? Because in the USA we are having the most violent weather ever recorded, weekly.
