That's news to me. What keywords should I put into Google or Bing to find more reliable sources that mention the use of a fixed pixel clock on the vast majority of LCD computer monitors?
ISTR discussing NVIDIA G-Sync here on Slashdot. In fact, so did you. Caught you. No need to be a disingenuous dick.
My total horizontal resolution is 5560
all that proves is that you'd need an 8k display to exceed the pixel width.
When I click maximize on my rotated 24" 1080x1920 I don't have to worry about it accidentally wasting space on the ENTIRE workspace.
I'm not particularly worried about having to possibly unmaximize something. If you had a smart maximize with configurable regions then you'd have the same benefit, only moreso.
You see, we gave the finger to Darwin a long time ago with our medical science...
Not really. Now we're simply evolving for different things, like resistance to side effects of medication, and resistance to antibiotic-resistant superbugs.
Thankfully, these days we have maps and won't have to bang our way to mars. UUCP wouldn't be a satisfactory solution, however, because it's designed to get instant confirmation of delivery before retiring a job from the queue. What is needed is a new daemon that sends messages via UDP with high redundancy and keeps trying to deliver as time slots become available until receipt is reported.
Its amazing how Java went from being the favoured child here on Slashdot to something generally reviled and hated over the past decade.
Having actually been here for the last decade, I don't know what you're on about. Java has never been the favorite son of Slashdot. There has always been a massive contingent that holds that Java is slow and stupid. Sure, there's always been a group that opposes it, but it's always been smaller. Where do you think you are, anyway?
Any Java program that wont run on a new JVM is already questionable
Yeah, the majority of big Java programs ship with a JRE specifically because switching to a new one may well break something. That doesn't really detract from your statement, but most big Java programs are questionable. Or perhaps the question is why anyone thinks Java is a good idea to begin with.
It's so trivial it's already been solved in science fiction.
I bet if they dropped KSR a line he'd tell them specifically who worked it out for him
Quite the opposite. The US Government is supposed to manipulate the currency to achieve two things: to keep inflation low (2% is the usual target) and to keep unemployment as low as possible (about 5% normally).
Oddly, neither is on track. Perhaps they're doing their best. I suspect they're doing their worst.
That's a reasonable solution in a world with a COLA, but not without it, because you're depriving someone of their property and that's not acceptable when the system doesn't guarantee basic income.
Rent controls already deprive a person of the use of their property, so it's not really any different in concept.
The use, but not the ownership. Everywhere I'm aware of in the US and certainly in California, the owner can kick you out at any time if either they or a family member is moving in. That "guarantees" a property owner the right to residence, though granted they still have to pay their property taxes.
It is not called a "state owned only" stop
There's at least two bus lines in SF with sign markings. Mostly it's MUNI. A MUNI stop is a MUNI stop, not just a bus stop. Especially if you ask a MUNI employee.
If you allow anonymous access to view, you can have that before you have registration implemented.
The site is worthless without registration, because all the information is on what you're registering for. The primary purpose of the site is registration.
To me, the difference between "system provides some functionality anonymously to read documents" and "system requires a working registration/sign-in system in order to be able to read documents" is a hell of a lot more than 'practically a checkbox' -- not unless your checkboxes come with stuff which magically generates the entire registration system.
Like I said, the primary purpose of the system is registration, which means they need the registration system in place anyway, and if they don't have it there then they're assholes. QED.
Because multiple monitor support is poop in every OS in some way. It always falls down somewhere. I want it to be as good as using one of those devices that splits one video signal onto multiple monitors, but it never is. I want it to work equally well as three distinct displays or as one unified display, and it never does.
I want one 4k display, and as soon as it doesn't cost more than the rest of my system put together, I'll upgrade. I have an early 25.5" IPS display at 1920x1200 now. It's got some ghosting problems, and I always want more dots, but it's not too shabby. And it never causes me special multiple-display-related problems.
(There's a reason by single bladed copters are still the best choice... they are naturally stable).
You're a lot better off landing on 2/4 engines (if one fails, you'll have at least one opposing pair) in a quad than on 0/1 engines in a heli. Or better yet, you could have eight engines, and still function on six. And quads are very stable.
Lol, what a joke. You have no idea what is useful in a battlefield, these would be expensive wreckage after 1-2 rounds from a kalashnikov.
Guess what? The sad truth is that already applies to most helicopters, yet we still use lots of them. We just don't use them in the thick of combat, one or two aside. They serve support roles, where they don't have to try to dodge a lot of bullets.
It sounds to me like a failure of rent control, not a problem with Google. Either it was implemented poorly or it is a fundamentally flawed concept.
Both are probably true. The truth is that capitalism demands that people who live in the city pay ten bucks for a coffee so that the coffeeshop worker who lives in the city can be paid well enough to survive, but it also demands that the cup of coffee cost five bucks.
we are talking about gentrification, I wonder if a system requiring rent-to-own contracts instead of leases would serve the same purpose?
That's a reasonable solution in a world with a COLA, but not without it, because you're depriving someone of their property and that's not acceptable when the system doesn't guarantee basic income.
Diplomacy is the art of saying "nice doggy" until you can find a rock.
