Re: Samsung bows under pressure; Will re-enable Windows Update on its laptops

This is illogical since driver updates are not included in the automatically approved items. They show up in optional updates which requires user intervention to install.

Re: Samsung Galaxy S3 Update Release Date: AT&T Announces Android 4.1.2 Premium Suite OTA Android Update

I had to go to CyanogenMod to fix the GPS problem. AT&T denied the issue and even replaced my phone in attempt to fix. Amazes me that there are tens of thousands of people out there with unusable GPS and they don't even realize it.

The point is you shouldn't have to pay *and* watch commercials. Either support it with ads and make it free, or give me the options to pay for ad free. The Hulu model of making me pay to view it on devices other than my computer but still shoving disruptive, annoying, non skippable ads down my throat sucks.

Re: At least 1 woman should be interviewed for every IT job opening, advocacy group says

This would be reasonable if we ever got resumes from females. Over the past ten years I have seen no more than 5 total candidates apply for positions we were filling, and only 2 of those justified an interview. Any sort of affirmative action program is ridiculous regardless of wether targeted at race, color, etc.

Re: Nikon D7000 back focus fix

cgreentx — Fri, 16 Dec 2011 12:11:54 -0000

The symptom I see is back focus with wide aperture.. that doesn't mean that's the entire issue, but obviously when aperture isn't wide open there is more tolerance. I'm not a super experienced photographer so its just frustrating to get a much nicer camera and have most of my photos turn out terrible. :(

I'm struggling with this right now. I had a D50 and a D90 with flawless auto-focus. I've had my D7000 for over 6 months now and all the joy of using my camera has been taken from my by severe autofocus issues. When I try to use my better glass this gets even worse due to the short DoF when wide open. I'm ready to send the body back to Nikon to be fixed and I'm wishing returning it was an option.

Funny.. I use an Android device every day. Since the Atrix had a higher resolution than typical when it came out, I dealt with apps not looking right on my screen for at least 6 months after it came out. Apps had to be updated to take advantage of the screen. It was very frustrating when I opened an app and it only took a portion of the screen.

Re: Sprint increasing 3G data plan pricing by $10/mo, calling it 'premium data'

Sprint doesn't even have adequate WiMAX coverage in major cities like Houston or Dallas. They don't have any chance at all of rolling it out nationwide. They've already announced they will eventually move off WiMAX to LTE which puts them behind the curve anyway.

You do realize that Spring caps 3G data transfers at 5GB just like everyone else, right?

Re: Lack of Black History Fuels Home Schooling

cgreentx — Wed, 05 Jan 2011 10:11:44 -0000

There are LOTS of good reasons to home school your kids. Complaint over history content which you can supplement easily at home is a pretty poor one in my opinion. That is such a small portion of what we learn at school and it sounds to me like they are just trading one indoctrination for another.
