I love it. Treat tasks like trying to beat my galaga score instead of like a mario stage to get to the end of.

License the core to a saas company to pay per seat and let them handle billing. Personally, I like micro-rewards for getting little tasks done. Things like, spending some time on a side project after doing some house chores, or grabbing a b

Parents should smoke, kids need sugar, toys bring kids happiness and parents peace.... Lies by thieves.

Running the chips in less than ideal performance settings does seem fishy. I wonder if the perf gap is wider or narrower with HT on.

People want to think their attention is worth something. Maybe they should be more careful where they spend it.

Build it on links. It supports advanced terminal functionality like graphics already.

Been a little while since I looked into this, but some devs do test for slow connection usability. The problem is that browser tools for simulating a slow connection don't drop and delay packets semi randomly like radio tech will. They

I had a similar fraudulent charge sent to collections once. I collected evidence and started a case to get it removed with the big three credit companies which basically took their teeth away. You can win without playing with courts.

Huh, and just when I was thinking about going back to OSX on my 2013 15" macbook pro. Maybe living with the cruddy linux support for the nvidia GPU is the way to go?

That's like blaming your fuel injectors for a speeding ticket...

For positions filled people that are completely replaceable in hours, including finding and training them?

It nicely shoots down the idea that tipping is required for good service. Done.

ISPs are cheap. They use contractors rather than do the work themselves. Keeps them blameless.

It's all been downhill since 3.x... If they could put the current engine behind the 3.x series interface, I'd be one happy camper. I mean, other than the fact all "modern" websites suck now too.

I have a trackpoint with no 3rd button. Many trackballs don't have scroll wheels. Many folks use arrow keys and space, shiftspace, pgup/down to navigate too and those require nice visible scroll bars that move the whole document t

Right there with you. I moved all my purchases to ebay. At least there you know who you are buying from, and many manufactures have official stores. There are still bootlegs, but you have some say in how much risk you are willing to take. E

Sooooo it doesn't appeal to your taste? I like it. There, your point has been countered.

I too love rummaging through my bins and wondering what is possible. I think the hacker mind just works like "I wonder if X could be made to do Y..."

Apple? I'm not finding anything about a solid commitment, but they have been talking of such for a long time.

Perhaps it could be some kind of shack where radio components could be found... Really though I think fast shipping will suffice for most people. Once we get delivery down to under an hour, in city, with reasonable component prices, we shou

No it wasn't. The 90s was just intel and microsoft eating the market and killing innovation from competitors. Wintel easily set us back 20 years.

Fork of older upstream project which was a collection of mods for an even older upstream project. Not 90s.

The OS part, the GNU userland, was written before the 90s. The kernel was just the missing piece that made it all work on a 386 desktop that were rising in popularity at the time.

When was the last time a google link took you to the url that was displayed below it? They don't treat links honestly at all anymore (including javascript clickjacking, not just tracking links). Direct navigation is not in their best i

It's a little more shocking when they can identify 3 different users on 1 pc behind one ip in roughly 1 search. Seriously, freaks me out. I search on youtube for airplanes on the computer tv and suddenly a ton of music I like pops up.
