Forget about the NDA situation. What's evil is penalizing traffic that doesn't promote Google with buttons. That's far worse.

Why assume Chrome? Most likely he uses Firefox.

The big room scale situations are the only cases in which Vive is better. The VR is smoother on Rift, the apps are better, the headset is more comfortable, the Touch controllers are better, the optics are less blurry to the view extents, th

Aside from the better room scale tracking, the Facebook VR system is better than the Vive (and all other VR systems) on almost all other counts. So I don't understand what you are talking about regarding a quality product.

And it can't, because that would enable a huge loophole.

Can somebody tell me why a chat application should use 5% of a CPU and over 100MB per account?

What everybody should do is register their own domain and create their own email addresses. Then an ISP is merely a forwarding service to some ISP email address you keep private.

Voxels may be uncommon, but they still weren't new. There's nothing technologically new in Minecraft. And that's fine.

Aren't keto diets about making you more satiated and not about nutrition? I thought I've read that people have done a better job losing weight on such diets.

True, though I imagine a lot of crashes can occur from just that 0-60. There are lots of Internet videos that attest to this.

Who was it that asked you to do that? Your mgr? Marketing?

How do we know the observed behaviour isn't mostly due to the hash set node allocator? If you want speed, you don't use global malloc.

It's OK to do, but it makes memory analysis difficult. If your app exits with a lot of allocated memory, it's hard to tell what's a real leak and what's not.

My problem with Edge is that even if it did currently work better than Firefox and Chrome, I still wouldn't use it, because I don't believe they will respond to new technology requirements well. They are non-responsive and have a

That's great, but I'll bet the data set was chosen to maximize their results. That being said, last year they did win an independent test: http://www.pcworld.com/article/3087338/browsers/which-browse
