Ditto, CMD+Click is borked (OSX, Firefox nightly) While the rest functions very well, this is case-in-point ... it's difficult to re-invent app use cases that browser vendors generally take care of. Edit: Printing is also borked it see

I bought the BLU R1 HD-16GB [1] as basically a throwaway for travelling. I was surprised at the value for $80-150 CDN of the Blu line. It wasn't a horrible experience at all and even has dual-sims. I would definitely recommend as a bas

Did you try it? Yes, getting good data is a challenge but that's not one they can solve in Sheets. Making a graph is also not always one button, unless you have very simple data. I found it immediately useful. They've solved some

Are you trolling? Many people do not want a family. We have a sizeable population problem and many unwanted children are already born into poor conditions. Safe sex is important, but "self-control", implying denying oneself sex, i

Smoking will continue, but I suspect that many people will choose to consume via edibles/oils/etc which won't have a smell, or vaporizers which also have minimal odour. When the dispensaries popped up all over Toronto (pre-ra

The trend has been to offer single-sign-on and user provisioning as the carrot to upgrade to enterprise (e.g. Slack), which nearly doubles the cost. For a 200 employee business that's $3K USD/month. Even smaller startups should be

Hm, I think it's the opposite. VR big in the short term; AR big in the long term. I do agree that when talking about smartphone applications, as in the blog post, those will need to be AR not VR. Google Glass was squashed right? And Ho

Why start with snarky sarcasm if you admit there might be more to it than the video? There's also a bunch of copy on the page if you scroll past the video. * The tabs are represented by little screenshots; nice for navigating. Yet to d

This has absolutely picked up recently! It doesn't help their brand in my case, as I put them into the "Overly Aggressive Vendor" folder for future reference when I'm actually looking at purchasing services. Those reply.

The current spat of cheap Android boxes preloaded with Kodi (which itself isn't an issue) and all of the third-party stream-torrenting plugins (the real issue), are posing enough of a threat for big Canadian telcoms to go after them he

Yeah, there are shady techniques from companies offering cart abandonment solutions that do exactly that (e.g. VEInteractive). If you type in an email address and don't submit the form, they'll still send you chaser emails. I thin

Good protection laws likely have stipulations that they cannot be overridden by other agreements. Some laws don't even hold if such conditions aren't included, such as unreasonable anti-compete clauses. Best to always talk to a la

It certainly makes it more difficult to compare products. These third-party sellers aren't doing themselves any favours. I recently wanted to purchase a simple phone case (Samsung S7 Edge, so relatively new). ALL of the cases had 4-5 s

A bit harsh to make a blanket statement about intelligence; people just need information which isn't being readily provided or is being drowned out with too much information. The collective actions seem counterintuitive to people payin

ZipCar requires a phone call too. Despite being a subscription service, if your credit card expires, they will send it to debt collections until you call to officially cancel. Shady.

Doesn't sound like cbhl is missing anything. You think it should be cheaper, others think tech this new should be even better and cost more. You just don't fit the early adopter group; wanting it doesn't make you an early ado

Search is also a major feature. For integrations, Github tells us when there's a PR. Yes, there's a clickable hyperlink, but I also get to know a bit more inline. It's additional context you don't get with only a hyperli

Is this why Hangouts recently started advertising the Google Messaging app instead of the opposite? For the longest time, I was using Messaging but Google kept pushing me to Hangouts.

That's nuts. You're more proficient and efficient with that experience, which should compensate for the wage difference between you and a less experienced colleague.
