I wonder, what fraction of households in the US has the electric power necessary to charge an electric car?

I'm afraid the reason Flash works poorly on platforms other than Win32 and Adobe is dropping the platform support is that they don't have the people that understand their code anymore, and there's noone to make it run (properly) on new plat

Is 1024x600 actually a CPU limitation? Do you have the source for that? (really curious)

Yes, that's for sure. It's just unclear if I need any of those improvements except for games (which I'd happily sacrifice on my laptop).

What's so great about Ivy bridge specs? I'm underwhelmed because electrical economy failed to materialize.

Is anyone doing thorough reviews for Apple products? With technical details such as component specs (CPU/SSD/display), real world battery life testing and so on. Did all Macbooks get Ivy Bridge update or not?

Care to elaborate what's your particular hybrid drive model? I thought the fashion for hybrid drives faded away.

But most ATMs move to Windows XP, strangely enough. To watch them boot, you only need a power failure. Strangely enough, ATM is often not even plugged in UPS.

Didn't Microsoft win by putting itself into position to preinstall its OS on new computers?

Good question. I think there's no similar action analogous to burning books online, so people inclined to do so are left to other kinds of action, like writing angry comments and blog posts.

Laptops with touch screens FTW! I wonder what the whole computer industry is waiting for? Are they again waiting for Apple to come and do and make what everyone else should have done long time ago instead?

I wonder what democracy in the country has to do with trusting the hardware company? Looks to me like some otherwise reasonable people have a democracy fetish: they mention it from time to time for now apparent reason.

What's wrong with makefiles and why is new Go convention better?

I agree, Apple is not particularly guilty of that; in fact, I think they are better than average. It's just that it looks like the average could be so much better, if only manufacturers and consumers cared.

Unfortunately, high-capacity cells are not enough if device manufacturers actively sabotage the potential for building longer-lived devices. The manufacturers can just add some power-hungry features instead. In 2004 Intel had CPU parts with

I hope they will consider supporting Linux if they raise way more than their goal (which looks likely). FAQ says that additional funds can go to "additional release platforms for the game".

If the amount of traffic they offer feels adequate, good for you. Otherwise, practically anyone else will offer more traffic these days.

The approach looks similar to the one in "JavaScript: the good parts" I am worried about the same while reading it: ok, here's the right way to do e.g. inheritance, but how do they do it in real world?

I wonder why don't they publish number of downloads for those apps? This would be in the spirit of open source.

Even if writing your own firmware would be illegal (would it be, really?), what prevents manufacturers from releasing the code for examination? Also, radio firmware isn't the only one missing. I think drivers for video and other hardware ar

As far as I understand, you didn't need jailbreaking for this, just unlocking. There is unlocking without jailbreaking, isn't there? Jailbreaking is useful of course, just your example is not very good.

It might be a fad in logo design: oversimplify everything into a few lines. I hope it goes away and I hope good designers don't follow it. I would say that the Cisco (old: http://www.it-building.ru/insertfiles/Image/cisco-270406.jpg new:

They do numbered bundles AND special bundles. I mean, special bundles do not count towards the number of bundles. I don't know why they do this; looks confusing.
