You're comparing users of OpenBSD to users of GNU/Linux, but why not compare both of them to users of Windows and OS X? Why is FLOSS software pitted against each other, instead of FLOSS software against proprietary and closed sour

This is the first time I've heard of ensurepip. It looks cool, but I'll wait until it becomes common knowledge before declaring that "Python packaging is good now", but I definitely agree that it's improving. I'

Hmm, just because it's mentioned frequently doesn't necessarily mean that it should be dismissed or deserve an automatic "you lose". It doesn't necessarily mean that other instances of the same problem aren't c

Apple did not allow alternative browsers with alternative rendering engines and plug-in system that could have supported Flash. So, they did in effect block Flash in browser (if not Flash in an app).

I strongly disagree that it's a non-problem, addresses are very unusable in many areas of the world.

I expect the mods will change the title to be closer to the original title, as this title sets the tone quite differently than the original article.

That sounds like "contactless" in the UK. Just swipe for transactions under £30, use your PIN if it's greater than that. It's very convenient, and I feel no need for a smartphone solution at this point.

I remember that phase as well. It was frustrating, but it was worth it. Don't waste your time on the front page, just post questions and answers that are personally useful in your work, and eventually, you'll get the 5 upvotes nee
