We (linphone) do H264 software encoding and reach 720 on high-end iPhones (5s and more). So 1080 should be doable in realtime with, say, 20 fps, on an i5 I'd say?

iTunes recovery mode? It allows to restore the OS, but also gives you other means to manipulate the device. Imagine if they simply hot-patch the lockscreen to allow any number of tries of password?

I doubt that the merger was converting all energy into GW. I suppose there might be some effects occurring at such high energy that we don't have precise simulation of what would be emitted. In any case, that emitted energy certainly w

Because RPi is way more mature? Look at the CHIP forums and how many people have problems having the device work correctly. And don't even start on the flashing procedure... Also, RPi is way older. In '12 when it arrived, there we

The IPs are hardcoded in windows ethernet driver, no shit.. So yeah, spoffing it through DNS won't work. You have to have a physicall firewall between your PC and the internet and target these specific IPs to block efficiently.

Isn't this just a guy that has nearly no experience in C++? It is evident that the for() loop uses iterators. Advocating for bare pointers and C-style solution is premature optimisation and blatantly wrong when using C++.. Finally, wha

Serious question: what's to salvage from the brain of a terminal brain cancer child? This strikes me as a very silly way to preserve a human being. If they really wanted to give their child a "chance" to live a full life, the

Better have a collapsed lung than no life at all. I've had multiple pneumothoraxes and I was able to breathe (suffering pain.. but I didn't die). You can fix that later with a drain.

This is an issue we have also, where we took our time to offer an official mirror of our software on Github, so we are less "popular" there than outdated clones. This is a problem because many people will clone the old (2+years!)

That's because Kepler only assumes 1-body interaction! With 2-body, or N-body, then you get lagrange points. It doesn't "break" Kepler's law, it is just that Kepler law doesn't apply in 3-body interactions.
