Alabama has charging stations in and around the big cities. So do plenty of other states with major cities.

Microsoft does not own the word "Office". It's "Microsoft Office". Libre Office, for example, has been on linux for a while now.

Shit headline.

(Welcome to Slashdot, I guess)

Swan has been CEO since January of this year. How do you explain Intel's problems before that? How many of Intel's problems started only this year?

The last (and truly LAST) time I bought tickets from Ticketmaster years ago, they were charging a $17 "convenience fee" for digital tickets you could print yourself. Of course, they would also mail you paper tickets in the post for free. Naturally, I got the real tickets. It's not like digital tickets would get you through the check-in line any faster, since the real tickets have barcodes.

Yeah but your Z80 was marginally faster than your adding machine. Today's computers are faster than supercomputers were back then. Even after all the "security patches".

IPSEC is deliberately too complex to security implement and use because the NSA controlled the committee which ratified it.

To repair what you own.

The one I had in mind was Consumer Reports.

I don't think the US is significantly different than Europe in that respect. Selling EVs in California is an entirely different proposition than selling EVs in Alabama.

With the shrink into nothing of Kodak/Eastman is film just about dead?

It's all about killing the secondary market.

Venues, artists/teams, and TicketMaster feel they need a cut of the revenue if you choose to resell your ticket.

When you resell a physical ticket, the venue/Ticketmaster/artist/team doesn't see any extra money (the scalper gets their cut), but the risk if that you might be buying a fake or used ticket.

With e-tickets, you can "resell" them as 100% genuine tickets and Ticketmaster is the scalper instead. I suppose that becomes paying for a service, but I think it's more about making sure no more money is made on sold tickets.

So does oil. So does coal. So what of it?

No he isn't, all he's doing is claiming I'm trying to end the argument with a declaration of the end of my own personal one. He hasn't engaged me on any point I've brought up, he's only hypocritically claimed that I've attempted to shut down discussion which is exactly what he's doing.

You need to go back over and reread this shit.

I'll stick with Leica.

Its the beginning of the Microsoft's hug with Linux. Microsoft loves Linux, you know. Kind of the same way Lennie Small loves to stroke hair (Of Mice and Men).

Hard to squeeze performance out of WPF; I resorted to drawing directly to an UNSAFE memory block and blitting it to the control surface to have real time animated graphics in WPF that were not baked in animation types.
