As someone who's used many, many DBMS engines MySQL is by far my least favorite. Even engines that are completely different from ANSI SQL like Intersystems Cache make more sense to me than the half standards compliant, half brokenness that is MySQL.

I had the exact same thought when I went to the site. I went to Bach's childhood home and they have a number of his harpsichords including at least two in playable condition and I was lucky enough to be there on a day when they were actually playing one of them! It's a very different sound from a modern piano, though through stylized play the artist on this recording has made a modern piano sound as close as I've heard to the actual instrument that the piece was written for.

Yup, or replace your phone due to water, my S5 with Qi charging is waterproof.

It's almost certainly the electrolytic cap causing the issue, and it's where people that claim LED's have a longer life than CFL's are wrong unless they're talking about a DC environment because the weak link in both LED and CFL construction is the enclosed electrolytic capacitors. If you tear down either type of bulb and look at the spec sheet for the cap and compare the rated life at the actual operating temperature you'll see that almost every manufacturer is lying about expected lifetime (often by a factor of 10 or more).

I was about to pay the exact same thing, only Newfoundland and a few Caribbean islands are UTC -3. It was those canuckistani's I tell you.

There are external TB2 enclosures for desktop graphic cards, but due to complexity and niche use they run in the $500+ range and that doesn't include the cost of the video card.

AptX Lossless works fine, it will do losless compression until it runs into a something that it can't compress for the available bandwidth (most likely due to interference causing the real bandwidth to be lower than 721Kbps) and then it switches to a high quality lossy mode comparable to AAC-HD or similar.

He did read it but he missed the part where it was supposed to be a cautionary tale and not an instruction manual.

Even near perfect mirroring makes damn near zero difference to a cutting laser so I doubt this attack laser would be any different.

$159,279,888 in 1973 or ~$837M is 2015 dollars for the A-10. The GAU-8A develop cost was $49.7M in 1974 or $235M in 2015 dollars for a total system development cost of just over $1B.

Personally I'd go with the CX3000, it does POTS, SIP, and USB connectivity and you can use the expansion microphones which is huge if you have more than a few people on the call.

How did cutting telecommuting across the board and thus forcing many talented engineers to go elsewhere stop the brain drain?

Local loop unbundling isn't a panacea, working through a clec who has to lease lines from the ilec is often painful when something goes wrong.

Most rendering engines aren't single threaded, and most browsers use GPU acceleration. However, on mobile adding a bunch of animations will surely lower battery life, so I just switched from Chrome to Firefox on my Android device as animated and sound filled ads are evil and Chrome mobile lacks extension support.

In Chrome Menu -> More Tools -> Developer Tools -> click on Resources tab and you can get the individual URL for each image, script, or style sheet for each frame.
