The noise-cancelling scheme sounds interesting. The hardest part though is figuring out what exactly is noise - so it sounds like they would have to either invert the intended signal to cancel it out on the path to the noise measurement, or they would have to periodically turn the signal off so they can get a clean measure.
&safe=active? Really? Why is that on there still?
I expect the headline to be short, accurate, and noninflammatory.
Artificial limitations pushed down by the vendor. That's not the technology's fault, it's part of the problem.
at the same time, there only a handful of people who know how read it. Plus reading source code is not as easy as writing.
Speak for yourself. I can't write my way out of a bag but I can understand most that I've looked at, that's not using some syntactical sugar I'd not seen before.
Many applications and OSes get security updates almost dayly. They certainly haven't found them all yet.
That would be a valid point if it was the same person or small team doing them all, which is false in almost every case.
Also, you don't need to sign your posts, we know who you are.
I think you're probably being obtuse on purpose, but just in case: It uses the Internet for managing your content licenses and pulling down content you have a license for but do not have a local copy. It's also got a store for said licenses, which requires Internet access to function.
That's like saying that non-alcoholic beer is beer.
It is. Alcohol isn't what makes it beer.
So you mean the only times that my GPS is active, when I'm navigating somewhere, doesn't actually need my position?
Right, I think somebody has been watching too much TV...
Gee, maybe you should use a cross-platform one! Let's have a list of some possibilities off the top of my head: Java, Python, Perl, Ruby. That's a decent sized list for a non-programmer to be able to pull out of his rear, and the first two are pretty damn powerful and there's no reason the environment to support them can't be present on these systems. That you can force the 'web' to do it doesn't mean you should and is not an excuse for their leaving embedded systems poorly equipped.
I guess you get to either pay-up, or go cold-turkey and join the Libreoffice club.
Oh look, MS is shooting themselves in the foot again.
You should probably read your own signature, the answer to your question is right there.
Fuck branding.
I used to file the branding off my belongings. I've only, 20 years later, managed to ignore them instead.
With all the fancy scientists in the world, why can't they just once build a nuclear balm?
