Sorry, that comma changed the meaning of the sentence from "A or B" to "A? B?". You don't put a comma before "or". The answer to that question would be neither. It's just normal recruiter ads that tic

The "review" barely mentions the game. This is not a review, it's attention seeking.

I think the demo proves that the sensor and lens combination does not resolve any more detail than a sub 1000 pound SLR. It produces more pixels but all the extra information is just optical distortions. It gets even worse with the telephot

Not when you're selling it. It's ridiculous to sell something without any specifics.

No. Anyway, if that was the case why would they hide the name of the company?

Looks like a movement and not a hardware product. The first thing they say is that there are people who will disagree and that's a good thing because it means they're doing something great and innovative. There are other possible

I'm looking for work right now (need an embedded engineer in the UK?) and some job boards have a tickbox "[]agency" or "[]direct employer" and most of the direct employer ones are also recruiters. That is a small th

Don't want to sound like a killjoy but those seem absolutely pointless. If you made one so small it would fit in a sole of a shoe I'd reconsider but in their current form they're just as inconvenient when not in use as a bike

Reminds me of that hologram device scam - bleen. It was so funny I couldn't tell if it was a scam or a parody trying to make fun of crowdfunding. Unfortunately it was flexible funding so people lost their money and whatever you think n

Combination of C, C++ and a scripting language of choice are adequate and work well. It think business and design problems contribute more.

Please, you have to also tell us the authors if you really want to recommend them.

I can't see the point beyond simultaneous (rather than consecutive) bracketing. If all you want is quality - get a bigger lens and sensor.

One thing that bugs is that perl5 code could potentially run with perl6. Is there any mitigation for that?

I don't see a reason to be happy that Linux lost a maintainer. Or to celebrate. This is a rather sad story all round.

Why single out Japan? Come and visit most of Europe and observe the same.

I can explain some of the reasons behind this in video games. Design is hard and in some cases impossible because you want the game to be everything to everyone regardless of their play style or level of competence. This is why you get so m

I think it's because baordgames are happy to cater to smaller niches - they don't need big runs to break even. The number and veriety of new board games boggle the mind. And they're more sociable.

Thanks! Maybe a help page that shows all this hidden functionality would be useful to others?

I'm no expert either, though I'm sure theoretically you can't do this. But in practice I think you're safe. Is there a way to disable the dots so the browser stops murdering my CPU?

I'd like to think it's because the cost of fighting them is higher than the cost of letting them operate. Sadly it might be more to do with social acceptance.

They don't have to, but they want to. They could say they will not accept content that requires DRM, just like GOG does. BBC is state funded so it should be easier for it (easier than for a for profit company like GOG) to not be evil.

They are moving from one non-free player to another non-free player. That's what I mean.

BBC is state funded yet it competes with all the other big companies to become as technologically obsolete as possible. The story of get_iplayer is a testament to this. I'm trying to think of companies that understand this but I can on

I don't understand the disdain for technically literate people shown a few times in the article. Solving the problems is the better solution but in the face of how impossible it is due to the changing landscape maybe it would be a good
