Is there a version of this that uses more than 10% of my horizontal screen space? I have a 40in monitor, I don't need the website compressed to the aspect ratio of a phone.

actually most franchise restaurants are not profitable and eventually go out of business. subway is famous for being basically a pyramid scheme that only makes money by fleecing aspiring restaurateurs. mcdonald's is an exception because they are primarily a real estate company and commercial landlord.


Most things go out of business. That's why the franchising model exists. Local owners know their local market best and they take a calculated risk on it.

From what I understand, McDonald's franchisees can make 5-15% of gross revenue of their location. That's a decent return, along the lines of other investments. As with all investments, you may lose too.


nvidia supported it for 17 years and amd still supports it but only on older cards


"Supported" it sure, but I'm dubious of the "70%" increase. It was very dependent on the game being played, and the CPU being used.


Oh NV Surround, how we miss thee

rare example of a question in the headline where the answer is yes


Wait isn't the answer No here? The dots are clearly clustered mostly in the correct half of the graph?


Shhhhh, it's way more fun to spout cynical and clever quips about a publication without backing it up with any reasoning.


Isn't that the nature of futurology. You are always wrong in some way. That doesn't necessarily make it useless


Given that many economic predictions are really about pushing an agenda, they are not at all useless, or at least, would be better measured against that criteria. I suspect the reason we still have neoliberal economics is precisely because despite its manifest failures of prediction, it still pushes the right agenda to be supported.


wait, springer as in axel? the guy who was in the nazi party?


really funny to propose that The Guys Who Are Doing This might hypothetically stop it


WOW64 is not emulation, it's just a second set of libraries exactly like the ia32-libs package on linux. OSX used to have this too but i guess apple got tired of maintaining it


people thinking california universities are discriminating against asian students is really funny


how would that even work? even if you could generate accurate maps of lane markings, non-differential gps in not accurate enough


I think it's a coarse-grained "this highway has been deemed non-anomalous enough to allow the vision systems to engage," not a fine-grained "we mapped every lane marking."
