How do you get those numbers, unless you wrote the software yourself?
Coincidentally, the originators of the information (a Russia based firm called Dr Web) have a virus scanner they can sell you. You'll probably need root to install it...
We didn't care. The law stipulates that the retailer must honor the 2 year warranty. So that's taken for given. The government will enforce the law, as we've seen.
Also, the only place where this would have been a problem was when buying from Apple directly. Taking the iPhone as an example, the vast majority of purchases are not from Apple directly but from a telco. So any issues with the product are dealt with by the retailer.
The most important difference is route of administration - the dosage is likely surprisingly similar (to start with).
Prescribed stimulants are meant to be ingested, and thus slowly absorbed. The same chemicals snorted, smoked, or injected reach the brain much faster, producing a rush, which is what recreational stimulant users crave.
It's this craving that causes repeat use, and increasing dosages.
The problem is the culture. The fact that there is a poor signal to noise ratio in employee communications is unlikely to be remedied by simply swapping medium... The garbage will just come through the new channel. The situation will only improve if people begin thinking about what is necessary to communicate, rather than spamming every thought that comes into their mind.
Of course, banning *all* forms of electronic, textual communication might help this... but it doesn't seem (from the summary at least) that this is what's being suggested.
I believe there's also a linguistic / social reason - we say 'fruit and veg'. This suggests that they are mutually exclusive categories when they are not.
That said, I had no idea that something could be a fruit and a vegetable until I read that post. So I've learned something new today.
I hadn't seen the photo til today either... But I'm not convinced they're authentic tbh.
What is the context of the photo? Why is the man wearing what appears to be a skirt? And why does the skirt look like 2 black rectangles drawn on with MS Paint?
Make no mistake... I really don't want that photo to be authentic.
But the rumored upgrade (now rumored for a summer release) *was* a doubling of the res in both axes. I've not heard of a mobile gfx part that can drive that kind of resolution, with the kind of gfx we're expecting, and not require a lot of juice...
That said I haven't been listening. If it can be done with today's tech, I'd be impressed.
The doubling of the resolution (like from iPhone 3G(S) to iPhone 4) doesn't necessitate a redesign... it just requires that you re-render your graphics in the higher resolution.
I just submitted the Retina upgrade to my iPhone app (yeah... I'm a bit late with it) and all I needed to do was include the higher quality images.
Interesting... I just assumed that case-sensitive was the norm when I reinstalled Mac OS, being a Linux-type myself.
So I spent a little while formatting, and then restoring from Time Machine to a now case-insensitive OS partition. Problem solved I guess. (To anybody reading this, it isn't for the feint of heart, and doesn't 'just work' as you'd like it to. Basically you need to do a fresh install, followed by importing from a Time Machine backup).
As a programmer though, I can't help but shudder when I see stuff like this. There's just not really an excuse, and most programmers manage to not screw it up. Heck, even Microsoft doesn't have this kind of restriction on their OS X products.
Honestly though, I'm not sure what they're thinking.
I'm generalizing here, but I think the last thing the average Mac user will be impressed by is being told Steam doesn't work with their filesystem. AFAIK Macs sold today use case-sensitive filesystems by default.
Of all the places you can cut corners to save development time, it strikes me that this might be the most idiotic choice imaginable. It drops potential customers before they've had a chance to even at what you have to offer.

Nope! Nothing suspect here...
Does Android count?
Do routers count?

Given that Chrome runs on Android and Google has a source license to Flash, I wouldn't be surprised if they keep supporting it in Android too.
Adobe would be surprised it seems...

Amazon (like Apple) have the content people want available directly through their tablet.
Samsung copy the looks of trendy tech. They don't seem to have much leverage really...
Nice.

It's not true.
Where did you see this?
I bought mine to replace my WRT54GS recently. No issues at all, and decently priced (at least where I live).
I'm running Tomato, but I presume the other router distress will work.
You'll only get 2.4GHz though.

I've hacked my way around it by making a case-insensitive disk image and symlinking all the folders it wants to make into it.
It's a kludgy mess. :-|
I'd been looking forward to this for a while now. Having installed I find out that Steam doesn't support case-sensitive file systems.
Color me disappointed.

Exactly... There's no reason the source can't be open, but the environment demands that the compiled code be signed by a specific vendor.
What makes you say this?
I just had a look at the site... It looks an awful lot like a usenet provider...

That's an nVidia only API...
