The only thing preventing "boot this USB stick, install Linux, install Windows" is that Microsoft doesn't allow that to happen.

Secondly, there are too many questions that need answers which would prevent there being such a simple set of commands. Things like:

'how much space for Windows, and how much space for Linux on your hard drive(s)?'

'what order would you like the boot options to be in?'

'how many logical drives for Windows and how big?'

'how many partitions for Linux, how big, and where do you want to mount them?'

and so on.

But it never hurts to dream <grin>

When you can only go so far technology wise (think SNES through PS1), the resources go to improving the games go other ways. This usually involves making a very good story, solid game mechanics, and character development. After all, the blitzy super hi-Rez 3D scapes cannot be done.

A Twitter account from beginning to end
I run a website whereby I try and post inspiring content daily. Today's video, that I have just found, is probably the most powerful thing I have ever watched.

It features a single Twitter account, from the person's first tweet to their last. It's 4 minutes long and I would implore you to watch it.

To watch it on my site - http://www.getinspired365.com/20140922 or to watch it on YouTube - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9aaYXu_qzg0

Because you will need to deploy a lot more than a single monolithic application of a single version.
Evolutionary pressure isn't going to be relevant here.

But our sample size of what consequences intelligence has is effectively 1. Drawing any conclusions from that is dubious. We just don't know.

However, that also means that the worst case scenarios we come up with are as well shaped by our idea what a human with unlimited resources might do.

I think there's a very good chance that the real outcome will be so far outside our sphere of imagination that it simply won't affect us much.
Do you think this harms new engineering students in China when they don't have access to tools and knowledge that the rest of the world does? I can't imagine having Github blocked.

Does there seem to be a pattern to the blocks? Or is it just completely random?
Hey thanks for the reply.

The reason for many popups is for multi taskers, the ability to copy and paste links into a playlist builder that is its own windows without interrupting the flow of playing songs currently was the main reason for this. Also the same thing for importing, separating sub features from the main application as utility widgets.

As for the columns here is the reasoning

>Date added
Playlist subscriptions are coming, so knowing when a song was added to a playlist can help you know how current that version might be; bands or artist can re-release mastered versions of older songs. So its important to know when the playlist was last changed for that song.

>length

You can sort it from shortest to highest, allowing it to play in that order

>user

Soon you'll be able to login on your own account or subscribe from others, people will be able to fork other peoples playlist to edit them, its mainly just for credit so you know who put effort into building a nice playlist.

I do agree for searching though, I will refine it to be on main display not as a popup and replace the main table where loaded playlist are.

As for suggestions, when out of focus the app will display a popup showing you whats next, should I add this feature to that popup?
The wiki article should be a good start:

Thank you, everyone - this thread has been enormously helpful to me. I am grateful for your time, attention and input.
yeah i saw one guy overdosed when i was there - some countries are providing police and even addicts family members with Anti-Overdose Drugs

seems they can be given as a nasal spray so safer than injections - when people are not medically trained

The animations aren't as nice-n-smooth as the David Whyte ones which inspire this. Is it just framerate (easy to fix) or is there something deeper causing this?
The guy doesn't really understand how encryption and cryptography and infosec work, making the whole article very laborious to read and quite misguided.

Weep for the future of our world governments, which will be shaped by people like this.
Additionally, they're not used in the same way recreationally at all. There's no therapy sessions delving deep into old suppressed memories; it's not a comparable environment at all.
I think is it very naive to believe that the States(any State) side with your interest.

In fact, the biggest crimes against humanity had been come from the state: Stalin, Hitler, Pol Pot. They are responsible for tens of millions of dead people, torture, kidnappings or rape and they were the heads of the State.

Hitler or Mussolini came from democracies.

If Apple could access ANY of their devices, they have to tell the NSA how they do it, thanks to "Patriot Act".

This means the gobertment could AUTOMATICALLY access any device, they don't need to ask anybody, only as a pantomime for justifying what they already know.

This is too dangerous, democracy means that power could change if it does not serve the public interest, but people in power want to remain in power by any means.

On the flip side, you have DSP-based manufacturers of synthesizers who are selling their products for >$2.5k, whereas the true cost is really more like $300. The synthesizer world is just as prone to the economies of luxury and privilege as any other consumer, non-essential device.

(Disclaimer: worked in the synth business for decades.. its a truly heinous world if you peek beneath the covers for too long. Smoke, mirrors, deceit .. its all there, being applied, in the never-endless pursuit to 'market to the cool and gullible..')

Cisco does this because they suck at assessing performance of, remunerating, and retaining top engineering talent.

The best engineers figure out pretty quickly that they'll get more interesting work and more money by riding the Cisco-Juniper-Startup-Cisco merry-go-round a couple of times.
That seems like an odd strategy, since a social worker should also be able to help someone get a (non-prison) apartment, if they're homeless and can't afford a place to live. Are the people you're mentioning foreigners who aren't eligible for the usual welfare benefits & housing assistance, or am I missing something else?
