After double-checking, it looks like WDs largest Reds and Red Pros have very similar specifications according to the spec sheets on WD's website.
Western Digital Reds are cooler and quieter because they run at 5400 RPM. This isn't a problem for serving up files at home, so I've been using them for my personal RAIDs without any issues.
Congratulations gamers and users of WINE -- you forced Canonical to continue supporting some 32-bit packages for now. Yes, the Ubuntu-maker will now waste its resources on antiquated technology to please a very vocal minority.
I'm not sure how to break it to this guy, but supporting users and their software is what a distribution is for. People whose software is still going to work won't consider that work wasted, that's for sure.
That's pretty much what Rust is: a low-level language that can be slotted into the same places C is used now, but without all the undefined behavior and memory leaks. And since it's a new language, it can have features people expect in a new language these days (like type inference, an intelligent build system, etc.).
Blu Ray subtitles are still done with high resolution bitmaps to this day. As mentioned elsewhere, it lets the player be relatively stupid by punting the complexity of fonts/Unicode off to whoever's authoring the disc.
Unicode support in Python 2 is basically the same as in Python 3. If you want to translate from binary strings to Unicode, you're going to need to specify a codec since the language doesn't just assume everything is UTF-8. The difference is that things like paths and command-line arguments are Unicode in Python 3 but plain binary strings in Python 2, so you wind up with this third "class" of strings that might be one or the other depending on which version of the language you're using.
But with a bit of care it's not hard to get a nontrivial amount of Python code to work unmodified in both versions by specifying import fallbacks and so on.
Haskell doesn't really have an "if" statement as such. It has an "if" expression (analogous to C's [expr] ? [expr] : [expr] conditional expression) but it's not widely used in my experience. Haskell folks would rather use guards and pattern matching to do the same job.
I have an older Roku with an unofficial YouTube client on it. It's not heavy on features but it allows searching and is fast and simple, and has no ads (that is probably why Google is changing things!)
I have a Roku 3 and the YouTube client on there is awful, it's slow and cumbersome and worst of all it keeps autoplaying videos after the one you're watching finishes, with absolutely no way to turn that off. No doubt it is to display more ads for those that accidentally leave YouTube running, but if I was an advertiser that little trick wouldn't make me happy.
For now I'm sticking with my old Roku, but I know the days are numbered.
The whole point of HTML and CSS is that all this markup are suggestions to the client, who is free to rearrange elements, use different fonts or otherwise handle things differently for the benefit of the viewer. Making an entirely different, dumber, website for the benefit of some particular class of device defeats the purpose of a "world-wide web".
Make the devices better, not the websites worse.
Nintendo VS system was an adaptation of their home hardware for arcade use, not the other way around. The Famicom predates it by years, remember.
That's exactly the sort of "do as I say, not as I do" bull that I hate to see from politicians. They think they know what's best for everyone, but don't abide by the same rules.
That's how I do my version numbers. Today would be 20150213. Simple and also has the bonus of giving the exact build date.
One small step for man, one giant stumble for mankind.
