It's something that MMO players have had to deal with for some time, and now it's something Facebook gamers now have to deal with: Money you throw at online games, be it in the form of microtransactions or subscriptions, is of little long-term value. You might get enjoyment out of it now, but that doesn't mean the game will be around tomorrow.

Let this be a lesson to people that haven't learned it yet.

sudo apt-get purge unity-lens-shopping

Problem solved.

Or just don't install Unity.

A brilliant idea for sure, but couldn't you get nearly the same results by implementing crosswalk timers and for less cost?

Although shortened yellow light are in and of itself a major problem, it doesn't make up for the amount of poor skilled drivers in areas where the yellow light is a reasonable length and they ignore safe driving practices anyway.

As a bunny-suit wearing Intel fab worker, I find this interesting, but not completely unexpected. It was never a matter of if, but when. Otellini wasn't Intel's first CEO, and unless something crazy happens between now and May, he won't be the last.

IBM? Otellini is Intel's CEO, not IBM.

Typo:
Marked it as such that it cannot be used again as a ballot, as voting twice is a felony.

Being stupid, I misplaced my mail-in ballot, so I couldn't mail it in. When I arrived at the polling place, I was carded (per state law) without issue, and told to get a provisional ballot. After the election official did some minor paperwork, I was handed my provisional ballot.

I recorded my votes, and placed it in the provisional envelope, dropped it off in the provisional box, and left.

I got home, found my mail-in ballot, and subsequently marked it such that it cannot be used as a ballot (doing so is a felony, after all).

All said, I had a harder time actually getting to the polling place than actually voting, as the location was an odd location just off the Loop 101.

Nope, not April 1st. I'm curious what Microsoft has to say. No doubt it is to praise Microsoft, but I wonder if they are going to positively speak about Open Source and Linux

I buy my coffee in 4 seconds by having the cash ready to go in exact change ahead of time. It's not that hard really.

From what I've read on AnandTech, low power Haswell chips might meet your criteria, which are due out the middle of next year. I'd be very surprised if Broadwell (the 14nm die shrink of 22nm Haswell) doesn't.

That's actually a damn good question.

My only guess is because it still makes more economic sense for Apple to outsource chip manufacturing to a third party. Brand new fabs are about the opposite of cheap as it gets: on the order of $30,000-$50,000 per square foot of cleanroom for the factory alone, including the actual construction cost and tooling the factory, but not counting labor costs and engineering support needed to run the factory, and not counting annual upkeep (which probably approaches 10% of the build cost per year alone).

It happens (and vice versa), but it's so few and far between it's not even worth noting.

Or they'd just say "fuck it", walk into the place in broad daylight wearing a ski mask and carrying a rifle, grab what he wants, and high-tail it before the cops show up.

Born and raised, thank you very much.
