The Switch is "just" an Nvidia Shield, albeit not running android. The carts are your standard mask ROM on a (proprietary) bus manufactured by Macronix and so would not be able to extend the functionality in a meaningful way. Text

The trend has been to push the crazy research stuff into the private sector or universities and fund it through intermediaries / grants. Not just the IC but in general.

Would you consider a company like Ticketmaster a tech company in that case? What about pre-merger DirecTV? (In the former case I think it pretty much meets the definition but is not traditionally thought of in this way; in the latter I thin

I saw one on eBay and I'm seriously considering it. I've found nothing online about using them in Linux, but I'm willing to give it a shot. I'd wager it shows up as a big pile of USB endpoints connected to a hub or somes

Largely agreed. The tit-for-tat that can happen where positions get filled on programs having little to do with the FFRDC they're staffed under is a problem and it makes MITRE a target for other contractors who will complain to congres

It's not like an agency can just go to MITRE and say "Hey, do you have any geospatial analysts, I need a few." They have to jump through a lot of hoops to get to that point. It needs to be part of some research program or dev

Yes it does? The details are file system specific and if they support mmap then it's also likely there's a page alignment requirement but that's not atypical.

I've always used the -ProfileManager command line option in the past and shortcuts to "-P <profilename>" when wanting to launch/send actions to sessions. (didn't know of about:profiles UI, neat) I haven't

Another way to look at it is that if you have all the prerequisites for that (talent, staff, money, resources, physical space, etc) to do those things, there are plenty of other more profitable enterprises they could be leveraged for unless

If I had to pick a local reason for this, it's because rap music videos since the 90s featured brown people in obviously fancy cars, so obviously fancy cars equals nouveau riche or drug dealer. And people love to correct others about t

Also that's a bit more nuanced a topic because between the driver and the passenger they might agree to take a longer route which could cost more if it's faster, avoiding traffic or whatever.

If you want an RCA of the last two crashes in 737 MAX's, please see the parent. Ridiculous gyrations to avoid new aircraft regulations creates dangerous scenarios for pilots and passengers.

You really shouldn't... Only on your resume and don't just give that out to whomever expresses interest; make sure they're legitimate.

Except who would report that person? There has to be some sort of intent there too plus the complaint.

Checks, ACH, wire transfers. Bank to bank, for free or very low fee (compared to transferred amount, like 20 bucks to transfer $$$$ with 1 day settlement for a wire transfer)

That's great but this is being very generous because Tesla cuts across market segments in a way that the other manufacturers don't per brand. This is by total vehicles sold, not delivered, including the Model 3, which I would not

There has definitely been a shift here, though. Note the high-budget prime time PS4 commercials over the last few years featuring actors in and targeted to the 18-40 demo. The message seems to be packaged escapism there. Similarly, Nintend

I donated to the Mozilla Foundation today when I heard about this trend coupled with the rumor of Edge's sunsetting. Even if the money is simply spent on marketing, I think that could be a good thing.
