I wanted to read this article but the LA Times is evidently a member of the annoying website design committee.

I'm not seeing that. Can you elaborate?

This is something that used to be easier - practically everything depended on Flash and you could either not install Flash or install Flash with Flashblock. Now with everything rolled into the browser, the problem has gotten much worse.

I have to agree with your comment in regard to MagSafe. I have a 2013 Macbook Air and I still find the power connector to be one of my favorite things about it.

Thank you!

Great site but they must use a heck of a lot of bandwidth. How do they stay afloat?

This is something that, I hate to say, will probably take a law to fix. Companies in general have shown a resistance to understanding why this is a problem (even when well intentioned).

Nice article. I really enjoy Pacman, and I still play it on Mame, but my favorite game back then was Mr. Do.

Hear hear. This is one of the reasons why I am not even vaguely interested in a touchscreen laptop.

I bought a Dell Dimension N-Series in 2007 that came with FreeDOS. It is my understanding that Microsoft signed discount deals with PC makers that required them to sell all their computers with an operating system (no bare hardware) and thi

I have to agree. To this day, I still prefer the NextStep UI to the OS X UI.

IMO, ChromeOS shares way too much information with Google by default. (And saying that this is okay because you can turn it off is complete bullshit. It is evil for Google to set a sharing default to favor themselves over the user). Even wo

The website is indeed horrible. Also, why does every PC maker try to get you to do a survey within five seconds of arriving?

I have to say that I am personally surprised there wasn't an update for any of the desktop computers. Even a token refresh would have been nice.

I find that kind of stuff interesting as well. I thought about creating an Ask:HN thread to bring the subject up but I have the feeling that most HN readers probably keep up to date on their hardware and software.

I don't see them making a Mac with a A10. But we'll know for sure on the 27th.

I love Unix and I will always appreciate Dennis Ritchie, along with the rest of the Bell Labs team, for the good work they did.

I do believe they are allowed to charge the government fees for what they did; although I don't know how the amounts are determined.

I have to say that I had no use for YouTube until I realized that these kind of talks were on there. In addition to what you mentioned, some I like: The Gruqg on OpSec: https://youtu.be/9XaYdCdwiWU Russ Cox's ACME tuto

Really? Considering how many bodies orbit our Sun, I would have thought 5-10 would be a good average.

The issue I have is that Yahoo evidently didn't even fight the order. Even if they thought they would lose, they should have at least attempted it. Or maybe they decided it was better to make money selling us out?

"poll() is defined by POSIX and The Single Unix Specification" This makes me wonder if Apple really earned the Unix certification. If it didn't, then the Open Group should be ashamed.

Reading the release notes indicates they are still working on their EFI/uEFI support. I've also noticed a lot of other free OSes that seem to be struggling with it. Is EFI really that complicated? I also ask because it doesn'

An interesting article, although I disagree with use of the term "artificial intelligence" to describe what was created. In some ways, I can sympathize with Ms. Kuyda. Both my father and grandmother died in 2013, and even though t

I have to admit that I am surprised they haven't offered this.

I would have an easier time believing this if the company had not retaliated against people who tried to complain internally.

This is the answer. If you have a problem with the product, don't buy it.
