Re: So much wrong with this...

Twat has deemed to me mysoginistic and someone used it on a yt video, video was tanked doen and the police visited said person (uk, not us). If you are into cycling, you probably know who.

Re: Mandatory 5 year minimum.

Then let me pay for support.

I would pay say £10 a year for security patches after the first two years if they support the phone for say 8 years.

They would also make a some money, if they get 10 million subscribers, that is quite some income there.. for essentially merging.

Re: I wonder...

The issies is there are essentially two main players in foundries, so a duopoly closely followed by intel.

Obvious to me

Australia wants the services and wants to be paid to receive services. It seems reasonable not to do so.

Re: What a massive fail

It is absurd to allow external repositories in dev machines.

Point the devs to an internal repo.

Re: What, exactly, is 'free speech'

According to that definition, it is impossible not to have free speech while you can speak/write.

But many will dispute there is free speech in many places your definition says have free speech.

Re: Good on 'em

What they want is a full OS like env with WASM, so essentially they could deploy full apps everywhere, as all devices have the same target.

Oh, and essentially they want random ppl executing binaries that can access credit cards, etc. What could go wrong.. as if this hadnt been tried before.

Re: How is this possible? - Real programmers don't each Quiche

I am not saying it is impossible, I am just saying it is unlikely.

I have yet to see a large project that is bug free, and I doubt there exists one in the wild.

If you have one.. well, you don't KNOW about the bugs, but you should know there are bugs.

This is a well known issue, nothing new here, but if you language of choice is C/C++ chances are, you have potential buffer/memory issues.

Re: bots

If everyone knew they were manipulating the Stock by lending all the available stock and shorting it, then why did the SEC not intervene? As far as I know, that is llegal.

Now they blatantly alter the price by not allowing buying the stock, and this is not only this app, this is a general thing, and.. nothing?

I seriously doubt they would do anything.. did they do anything when they were trying to bankrupt Tesla? No.

LiFePO

Has been used by BYD for many years, yet discounted.. until Tesla invested in china.

Re: Sudhish Kasaba Ramesh

So he got a big discount on the years for being incompetent?

It was an extra

More like it was an "extra" you could buy for a non small fee, even if it was standard on NG.

The MCAS in my humble opinion as implemented was criminal.. not only it had too much authority but they decided to hide it from the Pilots, and purposefully did not tell them about the system for monetary gain.

Now it will be fine and safe, almost for sure.

Loss leaders

Yes, they do that, it is even in their training manuals!

But they also produce kit fir cheaper than most western companies.

Re: This probably just crept up on everyone

This is not a design by programmers, it has been designed at the highest level. The strategy is to spy.

Re: Thank you for your efforts

They are not providing the information as stated by the law.

Re: Interesting dilemma

I would rather say backdoors on the radar and eff, etc, etc.

Re: More arguments for AMD, thus?

I suspect they do.. now they have to run on admin privileges.. so because of previous attacks, the change of context is way more expensive, so yes, it does have a cost.. probably relatively small, but it does have a cost.

Also, the more processes you have running as root-admin, the bigger the attacks surface.

Not accurate

That was blamed on Huawei, yet they happen to have a bunch of 5G patents themselves.

No, the issue is mostly 5 eyes and uncompetitive US based companies. And of course, the fear that China does the same as the US does.

Re: Capita discovers too late

The KPI will be met. The expected service not in writing.. that did not happen of course, unless paid to do so.

Re: Emulation

It is mostly static conversion so at install time, except the parts that need to be dymamic. So little loss on execution.

Re: The principle makes economic sense to me...

The sl8ght issue is that in Boston 120.000 is a senior role, mostly, so rather than get a brilliant junior you would get a senior.

And you wont hire seniors from other countries... well, you wont hire them in the us.. you will hire them where they live and wont pay taxes in the US.

Unless the US gvnt also taxes IT services they are shooting themselves in tbe foot.

Note: yes, the current system was/is a travesty in some sectors, but it is also very harsh on the inmigrants. If you get someone from abroad, just dont kick him/her after a few years if productive to society.

People don´t learn on others mistakes

Russia tried to play by our rules.. we pushed sanctions.. now sanctions on China, and in general anyone who does not play by US rules, including the EU.

Re: Rich people's money

I disagree, punishment should be proportional to the crime, not how much money the government can make.

Re: Training

Very few alternatives... and anyway 4GB of ram means this phone is almost obsolete when new.

Re: A thought

The us troops only attack enemy combatants, as they define anyone shot by the us military as such...

Re: Surprised?

The main reason is to prevent it being fixed by independent repair shops, and charge more than the cost of replacement to he poor sods that need repair, so an easy repair is converted into more stuff in the landfill and new sales for Apple. The side effect, is your data is reasonably secure.

If this was not the case, you should be able to install a new OS on the system, even if you had to validate it online, etc etc.

Re: Ampere, 160 cores, in the cloud?

Not only citation needed, also define risc and cisc. Both arm and x86 are quite complex now, but not in a way you can say they truly are cisc or risc.

Re: 18 months?

I just found out why my computer and my wifes computer sometimes crashed.. even after all the filters and even an avr ups. I coulnd detect it witj my oscilloscope.

Well, it was her motherboard.. took me ages to discover that.

Re: The people who wrote it said that it would take them weeks to fix, at a cost of ~£5k

As far as I know, that has always been tje business model.

Look t car manufacturers: they essentially charge you to fix their design and manufacturing shortcomings.

Re: So, how was it that

It this case, the ones with the patents and the ip advantage are Huawei. So Trump banned them from competing.

Re: 18 Months

It wasnt the pliers, it was the fact that he was a repeat offender.

Re: I wonder how many UK Amazon workers voted for brexit?

They offer better apparent salaries.. not better conditions. It is amazing that these conditions are even legal.

Re: I'm confused

No they are not.

They are better with your personal info now (used to be crap at making it safe), and are like old school companies used to be.. it is just that the rest are frankly awful.

Re: Too hard, too frequent, too unreliable

Then they outsource the system "to the cloud" that promises 99.999% but delivers only 99.999% "on average" but not specifically you and has no SLA indemnity.

Oh, and your job goes too.

Of course they are going with a worse service for too much money, but that sill not bring your job back.

Re: To be honest...

They charge a ridiculous amount of money, but yes, at least it works!

Re: Cheaper?

I own´t buy a mediatek powered phone.. as they do not release drivers etc.. so the phones just don´t get updates.

Re: Mail Storm

All minorities represented and smiling. At least that is the standard I receive.

I mean, why not put pics, please don´t fill everyone's ssds!

Master/Slave

They are ok abusing employees in factories, that is ok, but Master/Slave is wrong because some people in some part of the world might be offended, even if most slaves historically were not black.
