Skype in general was, for me, always one of the "how the hell can they be so successful and so crappy at the same time" experiences. Calls are ok (not more than that), but everything else - UI, resource utilization, pricing, and e

While I agree about it being ok to break things at this stage, some of the words in your reply were a bit confusing - what do you mean a "private unsupported API" in an open source project? Kind of supports the notion that this is

Oh man, it's not a lemon...My experience, with a pricy 7700HQ, 4K touch, is exactly the same. First a faulty SSD which first replacement of SSD and motherboard didn't solve (second repl. of drive did), then throttling, and then th

Couldn't agree more...People were creating universes with 1.44MB on floppies. Instead, Viber desktop app installer, for example, is a 133MB download, ~300MB installed and probably uses double the RAM...
