Not fair. RS690M's graphics may be garbage, but a laptop is a small sealed box full of discrete components, any of which could be causing the problem.
In fact, the sleep/resume issue and graphics corruption, combined, look like a bad BIOS, which would agree with Gateway being a cheap/lousy OEM.
Wrong. The iPod and iPhone pop up the keys, the iPad only glows them blue for a split second. The only time an app will do that popping keys nonsense on an iPad is if it's not universal, and running in iPhone mode.
I suggest you consider candles instead, for your Luddite lighting needs.
Modern CFLs do not flicker, take a very small fraction of a second to fully light/"warm up", and are STILL between 4X and 10X more energy efficient.
Really, if you're totally hell bent against fluorescent, check out LED lighting. instant on, instant off, light spectra tweaked to order, and still vastly more efficient than incandescent.
Which part of "woefully inefficient" doesn't overcome "very yellow light" in your mind? Seriously. Incandescent, aside from being What You're Used To, really is NOT very good light!
I just searched to add it to my PVR software, and it found no PBS series by that name, but it did find a TLC miniseries that aired in 1974, 1994, and 1997, and apparently gets rerun regularly.
Is that you, Charlie Wilson? We here at the CIA would like to remind you, there's money to be made fighting the Russians, but there's no money to be made in peace.
Even better: Get unetbootin, use that to put Ubuntu on a nice big thumbdrive, and allocate a few GB for persistence. It's as close to a portable install as I've ever seen.
Relative to the others in use, and the new month+year ones? Yes, it certainly is. I've become privy to several of my co-workers' passwords, and that throwaway that I made up on the spot (not one of my actual passwords) compares favorably.
Relative to crypto work, or even serious security? No, it isn't, you're right.
Relative to the average passwords in use, or what average user considers a good password? It's stellar.
It retains at least four, since I had four good ones, and the fifth month after we started using the new CRM, it wouldn't let me reuse any of my priors.
Entertainingly, that's exactly how I'm selecting my password at work currently. The one system expires my password every month, and demands upper, lower, and number. Last month was June2011, before that May20112011 (eight char minimum), and April2011. These are atrocious and horrible passwords, but I fed it good ones like g0g0g4dg3tp4$$w0rd until I couldn't remember them anymore, That and the one time I got PUNISHED, PUBLICLY, for forgetting the horrible new password I'd been required to choose.....
If you're going to implement password cycling, keep it reasonable. The system I access has nothing more sensitive than the last four digits of a credit card number. We really don't need monthly cycling unless we're dealing with something really secure.
By actually reading the article, I was convinced it is, in fact, the unarmed Minuteman III moving from Vandenburg to Kwajalein. The time, direction, and appearance match up with the terminal stage burnout.
They made that movie. It was called Hancock, and got panned pretty hard. They did rehab the ending to Hollywood-happy at the last minute, but it otherwise follows your formula pretty closely.
I rather liked it, but most folks didn't.
The other day I fed TinEye a highly-cropped version of a photo, someone's avatar from a game that I half-recognized. It found the uncropped version, and a few alternate versions (not exact matches, but same subject, different paintings).
Same reason we root (jailbreak) our Android devices. Nobody except Google (who stopped selling their handset) sold a handset that you could truly control without jailbreaking/rooting/etc.
Wrong. GeoHotz rolled out GreenPois0n last year. GP should, in theory, allow all of the then-current devices (pretty much everything before iPad 2) to have at least a tethered jailbreak forever. It's a very low level exploit. To become untethered, you need a userspace exploit that can reapply GP each bootup.
4.3.1-4.3.3 inclusive all have untethered exploits, courtesy of i0nic. I'm running 4.3.3 untethered on my iPad 1.
My daughter now understands the concept of, and desires to begin fragging. THIS is parenthood. I raise the next generation of uber-twitch spawn-camping FPS-dominating A-holes!
"When I first saw this on Fark I got excited that he was going to give people money to do an apprenticeship or maybe start their own hands on company. No, he's paying people that he hopes will be the next Bill Gates or Mark Zuckerberg. We need a whole lot more of the former and a whole lot less of the latter."
"I'd be happy with neither tbh."
You misread. Let me spell it out for you.
A. "Apprenticeship or hands on company"
B. "next Bill Gates or Mark Zuckerberg"
We need more A than B.
So you're emulating the C64 version of RSR? My One True RSR (fired up mere weeks ago in DOSbox, though sadly without keyboard overlay) is the DOS version. Thus the thread title.

Lord Steve Jobs of House Frey is waiting to see if G+ "wins" before he decides to fight for or against it.
It doesn't let me post pictures from my iPhone easily (unless there is an app I'm missing?)
Exactly that, and exactly as Lord Steve wishes it.

Are we absolutely certain this is not an Onion article??

Not snark: 33k/year is highly paid in rural NY? Is that part time? I make 40K/year in very distant suburbs of PA. That's full time, though.
And I built a custom IPSW for my iPad with the changes pre-applied, and restored that. Same difference.
Flashing a custom ROM with root access *is* rooting.
Same reason we root (jailbreak) our Android devices. Nobody except Google (who stopped selling their handset) sold a handset that you could truly control without jailbreaking/rooting/etc.

I seem to be getting that despite the A-hole training. I should have married a more belligerent woman, apparently.
I think you have a syntax error. Your curly brace is open. (For those wondering, I have reproduced. It did not affect my pedancy.)
My daughter now understands the concept of, and desires to begin fragging. THIS is parenthood. I raise the next generation of uber-twitch spawn-camping FPS-dominating A-holes!
I think three of those are titles.
