No, because while you can insert decimals to Celsius to get a more meaningful range of values, you can do the same for Fahrenheit and get still MORE useable data points.
So basically, according to YOUR link, the rocket had a problem with one of it's nine engines (did you think they carried nine because it lines up pretty???) and NASA forbade them from performing the second stage transfer burn, due to safety concerns. Where exactly did corners get cut? Engine failures happened ALL THE TIME on NASA's programs, too. It's a fact of life in rocketry, there are lots of moving parts, so you overprovision for redundancy, and cut over if you have to. That article you linked is a very, very negative spin on a normal launch.
Yeah, I don't think you know what you're talking about.
iHAS is not a feature or anything to be 'flashed out', it's the model number/name of the drive.
The firmware you linked to is still the Liteon firmware, it's just been patched to allow writing all the way to the rim of the DVD-R DL, specifically for piracy of Xbox 360 games with the XGD3 copy protection.
iHAS burners are a lousy choice for ripping audio CDs, and that's also true for damned near any current drive on the market. CD Audio extraction quality and speed is simply NOT a mass marketable feature anymore, and hasn't been for a while.
Wow, unmitigated, unconfirmed, completely fabricated BULLSHIT on the front page of Slashdot?? Maybe things really are done here.
A quick Google search with any of a number of sections of the fake 'plastics' article turn up the real NASA article talking about iron-rich pellets, but the picture of fucking MARDI GRAS BEADS in the upper right might have been a clue.
Not true, there are many 'cracked' KMS servers out there, which are a VM with the most minimal services, running Windows Server in Core mode, and all ports but the KMS ones closed and blocked. Those same servers are patched to keep 25 fake activations renewed at all times, so any and all requests to the "cracked" KMS server result in activations. As far as MS can tell, they are legitimate, since KMS activations are not verified online, except with the original server.
I don't see this getting patched or fixed easily. It will be a lot of work. or it'll require doing things that annoy large volume customers.
"I've pulled the binary apart, and I think the problem is that it's not signed with a LF [Linux Foundation] specific key, it's signed by a generic one rooted in the UEFI key."
Please, "leak" that one immediately. It would tear huge holes in "Secure Boot".
iTunes Plus upgrade also doubled the bitrate (from 128kbps AAC to 256kbps AAC). This was done mostly to get the labels off their backs about it.
I have one song that just won't download anymore. All the others I've tried get silently upgraded. I have iTunes Match currently so I can't re-verify. Buying iTunes Match for one year isn't a horrible deal either. I just liked getting a quality upgrade, whitewashing my sources away (no more hard-to-explain pirate group ID3 tags, etc), and having verification that the songs hadn't picked up too many errors. I won't be renewing, clearly.
That's only true in a small number of cases. The great majority of music can be redownloaded DRM-free via either individual track re-downloads via iTunes Plus, or by subscribing to iTunes Match for one year, and letting that match and upgrade all your tracks. I believe at this point you can simply delete and redownload your track for a DRM-free version.
I hate DRM as much as anyone, but you're the dumbass for buying DRMed goods and then being pissy when only some and not all DRM was removed from them later. Apple is willing to work toward your goal, and you're pissed because they don't deliver 100%?
For clarification, I've dropped Apple from my personal device lineup now that Google has tablets that match or beat iPad. I've been enjoying using iTunes Match to match and upgrade my old music, then uploading the up-rate media to Google Play.
Laptop with Intel HD 3000 graphics (pretty low end). I don't game with it, but it does do full screen video and 2D just flawlessly at 1920x1200 *2 (dual monitors are wonderful), and I've had it hooked up to dual 2560*1600 displays, where 2D and video were also excellent. Thanks for playing!
Hi! I'm facts. We haven't talked in a while, thought I'd drop by and see how you're doing. Looks like you've missed me a lot, why didn't you make any effort at all to check your statements?
Upscaling is what you describe. The Retina Macbook doesn't do that unless you ask it to. Decent PC monitors don't do that unless you set a lower resolution, or lack the hardware to run native resolution (single link DVI on monitors over 1920x1200, for example). Assuming everyone does that is just misinformed. iPads do that, when you run older apps that haven't been updated to understand newer screen resolutions. Not so much on Android, Windows, Linux, or OSX proper.
I have Sandy Bridge in my laptop and desktop, and an Ivy Bridge desktop for a project, and I'm not disputing that their graphics are quite good, particularly for an integrated chip.
I just meant that proclaiming Portal 2 performance wasn't going to get the traction you were looking for.
By using Portal 2, you have demonstrated only how very well-coded and well-optimized Portal 2 is. It runs fine on just about anything that can make triangles. Recently I watched Portal 2 running at high resolution and high apparent quality on a GeForce 8600 GT. Those are ancient, and weren't good even when they were new.
Good timing, I switched my T-Mo Galaxy S2 over from a customized version of their stock rom to Cyanogenmod this morning, since I have my VoIP/Wifi calling solution tested to my satisfaction. The integrated/zero setup Wifi calling that T-Mobile offers was the one compelling feature of Touchwiz for me.
I seriously think that T-Mo should investigate moving Wifi calling back out into a standalone APK like it used to be. There are lots of folks like me who like the idea but prefer to have a non-T-Mo handset to use it with, but still on T-Mobile's network, which AFAICT should be the primary product.

Right, because the common phrase is "broke like Google", not "fat Google money".

So you didn't look at the links, eh? The new drive that he hates is an iHAS.... AKA a recent Liteon DVDRW.

By all means, help yourself.
Giving out the links is kinda dumb when you could have the registration link and one year support and upgrades for free as well.

Tenets of capitalism. Capitalism does not have renters, but it does have core concepts.
Your sig quote is particularly amusing in this context. I'll go put on my grammatical fascist armband and sit quietly in the corner now.
Chiclet. It's a brand of gum, so if you're going to use it as a generic name, you should probably spell it right.
Unfortunately the folks making this bundle have nothing in common with the Humble Bundle folks, aside from aping much of the HB style and phrasing.

"Red Data Association"?
I think you meant without the "ir".
