Re:The World Wants More Danish TV on Wednesday December 18, 2019 @07:32AM (#21824157)
They're all crime procedurals. I'd like to see more Scandinavian prestige dramas not centered around detectives returning to their hometowns or whatever.
There needs to be a way to counteract this.

That explains linq syntax.
FINALLY! The best case here is that by scanning plates, you are casting a wide net and investigating without reasonable suspicion - which itself is a violation of your Fourth Amendment rights. The security and usage of that data is a whole other can of worms that also needs to be addressed.

Also, fwiw, if you drive a car made in the last 5 years, in all likelihood the manufacturer is tracking you as well.

Re:Apple Targets Launch of Apple TV+ in November for $9.99 on Tuesday August 20, 2019 @05:50AM (#20745164)
They should’ve bundled this into Apple Music or at the very least made it a $5 upcharge to bundle the two.

I expected that "timeline" to end in the late 90s but huh, that is quite impressive that they still have a market for those things.

Great photos. It's so appropriate that they come out swinging with Alice Bag - the Bags were just the best. I must have seen 50 shows at the Hong Kong - not so many at Madame Wongs, but I did see the 1st B52's LA show there (B52's would be Wongs prototypical band - more "new wave" than punk). But EVERYBODY who was real played at the HK. You would get these fantastic lineups, like the Germs, Bags, Fear and Crowd all on the same bill. Early on, the GoGo's were more aligned with pure punk than pop, and so they played at the HK instead of MW's. Won't get into everybody I saw at the HK (which would be, you know, everybody) but I did see Lydia Lunch and James White there - both from New York.
What did you expect? Real Journalism? Its the Wall Street Journal, not real news. They need click bait titles in order to get more exposure and sell more ads. What ever it takes to get a few more clicks...Their motivation like most news companies today is making money, not informing the public. They are for profit corporations after all.
Will they work only with ProtonVPN?

Re:Solder Alloys and Metallurgy on Saturday June 01, 2019 @06:04AM (#20068431)
I once read that lead-free solder is not allowed in medical equipment since someone’s life depends on it’s reliability. Is that still true?

As for consumer stuff you probably don’t see that problem because nobody keeps it long enough anymore. Everything is throw-away.

This is why I never rely on just one provider. Brutal to find this happen to your company. I can’t imagine the heart sink feeling you had with this.

Under full AVX workloads using Intel stock cooler?

Highly doubt it.

Re:Why is the ‘race to 5G’ a race? on Monday May 27, 2019 @02:22AM (#20019848)
Not even a full finished roll out in LTE in rural areas. Telecoms don’t want to lower prices for us, so 5G is going to sell at a premium to consumers. This race about "who control 5G controls the world" is ridiculous.
Re:AMD Ryzen 3000 announced on Monday May 27, 2019 @02:20AM (#20019845)
Takes guts to stick with that core count and at least you get to enjoy the full 70MB of cache. Good thing Blender and Cinebench all fits inside that, not sure you can ever say the same for productivity workloads.

I guess AM4 also means no real improvements on the PCIe lane count: Would love to see real and IF switches to give a bit of flexibility and what they plan for a new Threadripper.
