Same. The betas where buggy and crashy but the GM works OK. I don't notice it being slower than iOS 7.

Saying Spain is on the verge of starvation is a bit over the top. It's true that we got a lot of families without income now, but that's not starvation.

Aren't there any offline GPS apps for Android? I use one on iOS. It was 25€ and works without WiFi or Data enabled. Without the AGPS it takes a while to see satellites but it works.

You can use getSelection() to do that, but it doesn't work everywhere. [0] [1] [0] https://stackoverflow.com/questions/7563169/detect-which-wor... [1] http://jsfiddle.net/Vap7C/15/

You should keep incremental backups of the password database. I have four backups of my 1Password database: * Dropbox (which lets me recover a deleted file up to 30 days) * Time Machine * BackBlaze * Monthly HDD clone

On used cars is mixed. You need to pay taxes based on sell value, with a lower limit based on the blue book equivalent we have here. People just declare a bit less than blue book value and pay the minimum. But yes, most of Spain's subm

What's stopping you from installing FreeBSD or Apple's hardware? Everything has bugs, community volunteers are not infallible. It's good to be able to audit the things you use, but most people can't or won't do it.

That's the kind of contribution I do (plus some translations). I don't even have it written down because it's so minuscule compared with the work people do on those projects I don't think it merits attention.

It's not the case that americans would stop spending on health care if they went social. They'll spend a bit less, but I don't think it would make an impact on research. They will still look to the american market to cover th

That's completely different. OS X is not really free, the same way iOS is not free. It just comes bundled with the hardware and you get updates till the EOL of the product.

Same here. My VISA (DEBIT) works for iOS purchases. I've used it on different European stores and on the US store too (long ago though).

That happens to me, I have a 20 minute commute too. I do it by motorcycle and it makes me wake up in the morning and be ready to do whatever I want to do in the afternoons.

Are they actually ported? I've played Sonic games on iOS that were just emulators (awfully done emulators).

Doing keto for a T1 diabetic is hard and it doesn't change that much. Sure, you don't use as much insulin but there's also no effective way of getting your glucose level up without going out of ketosis. There's also the

But not the people. Empty forums are boring. They have the mindshare. There were alternatives to Twitter (some of them open source) but no one has fled to them no matter how much they cripple the APIs or how many ads they put.

> people "religously" follow one of their rules while blatantly ignoring others That's mostly how it works. People follow the rules they like and ignore the ones they don't.

Why are children the reason to buy instead of rent? My parents were renting till I was around 13. Then they bought a house. Years later they sold it and moved to a different one (they bought that one too). It never made a difference to me.

What I understand is that you publish your content using Osmek and then use their API to pull it where you need it, be it a webapp written in JS or an iOS app.
