I'm not seeing the indignity. Having a rope up to show people where to go is a normal part of modern life. How out of touch are journalists if they can't even handle that?

Weaksauce.

Can you imagine a Republican trying that?
-
Damn. It took me like an hour to make this meme, just to find that you'd hanzod your post.
I can't imagine a Republican doing that, but then I'm kind of lost on the significance of it in the first place. I'm trying to remember the one thing I've read about somebody reporting on a Republican (David Foster Wallace on the McCain trail) but the only detail that's coming to me is, um, something about air-conditioned buses, I think, and something about a pecking order depending on which publication someone wrote for?
Edit: http://justpaste.it/weaselshrub I actually own the book, is around here somewhere, but why bother when it's already up online.

Twitch.com must be one of those right-wing sites. A more even-handed headline would read "Conservative journalists all butt-hurt over having to wait their turn".

BTW, they didn't just rope off the street--they made a moving cordon or pen of ropes to keep the journalists just behind Hillary!™.

They want all those cameras focused on that sweet Clinton ass.

While I object most strenuously to your adjective, I mainly agree, because that's what the cordon was for.

I swear, at this point, it's like the
Democratsboth parties are just seeing if there's any indignity they can subjectjournaliststhe general population to, to which they will not acquiesce.FTFY

Also in general, this site rocks.

...ERR_NAME_NOT_RESOLVED ? Is some malarky up with my work internet again?

Possibly. Why no onebox though?

"oneboxed" that for you

The following week, he ends up in Oakland trying to get to Auckland, and then it's off to Beirut for the Bavarian Wagner festival.

Found this trash can / recycling can (they all had this English) at a park last weekend.
The "politeness" of it seems to change the intention they had.

Love the "Starswar" title.

Well, there's always bootcamp ...

With Intel HD graphics?
Oh? I thought they used Radeon M chips ...
EDIT: Looks like it's nVidia GT7xxM now.

It depends on year.
The latest one from 2014 is "Intel HD Graphics 5000".

Oh wow, the Retina version actually uses Radeons:

Oh I see. I stand corrected.

It would need a pretty beefy GPU to push all the pixels for 5K, 3D gaming on top of that might still be tricky.
On another note, hasn't the "retina" marketing bullshit died yet? It kind of made sense on iPhones, but they're now using it to refer to high resolution on anything. Is there any sort of definition on what makes something retina?
-
. Is there any sort of definition on what makes something retina?
IIRC, a pixel density highe enough so that at the recommenced viewing distance the pixels are smaller than the retina can individually distinguish.
basically crank the density up until there are no more pixels visible to the human eye, just the picture they are showing.
neat concept really

ore pixels
TIL my screen contains rocks, no wonder some systems are infested with dwarves mining the stuff

nah. that's just @ben_lubar sneaking into your place to use your internet connection

It lets you go to doing really good font rendering, and also do things like picking up fine detail in pictures that are otherwise shrunk down a lot (such as peoples' avatars ;)). The equivalent idea on other platforms is HighDPI; the only advantage that Apple's stuff really has is that their drawing API is basically derived from Display Postscript, and so is less tied to actual pixels than most other platforms' are.

that's the OS level, not the hardware level. :-P slap windows on it and it's just a very HighDPI display.
-

Well yes, duh. It's a trivial difference, yet it's not trivial from the perspective of applications. The API is how they talk to the hardware, and they don't care about what other conceivable APIs there might possibly be because they ain't gonna be talking those.
-
It's a trivial difference
no it isn't trivial. it's very important. it's just not a difference that's at the hardware level.

I think we are in violent agreement.

did someone say violent?
:-D

It might be funnier if the picture was big enough to actually read this English.
