My experience in China as a student point me to believe that most Chinese kowtow and go to temples for tradition and spirituality rather than institutionalized religion. The entire article sounds like a westerner applying their cultural val

Wireless charging is horribly inefficient...IIRC there aren't even any that go over 10W. Magsafe may be deprecated by Apple, but that's a step backwards in functionality. One cannot deny that using USB C for charging is inferior

I just want to point out that socioeconomic status is generally not an established correlate of crime, despite many thinking it is, though it's possible that the disparity may cause people to commit crime. It's probably not ver

I will attribute this to Intel's advances and focus in low power processors, not much credit goes to Apple in my mind. The Macbook pro 2014 used Haswell processors which are notably more power hungry on idle than Broadwell and its succ

I am baffled by how Github thought this was a meaningful design change. It looks jarring to have a top bar that has such a high contrast with the rest of the page. Not to mention the color palette used is very...odd. Very off white and pu

Agreed, on opensuse 42.2 Granted, the state of linux on desktop was much different in 2012 than it is today. Back then UEFI support was garbage and you had to fiddle around and use things like rEFInd to get it to even boot.

Their site[0] says that they're revitalizing it, and the last dev tweet I could find was from October 2016 [1]. So I'd bet it's going along at a reasonable pace. [0] http://www.winamp.com/index.html [1] https

I'm somewhat confused. As the article says, buggy components are often manufactured off-site (e.g. fiberclass body), how does this make them self-sufficient?

Agreed. Your example is great because it's a play on the common idiomatic expression "四通八达" (for the non-chinese reader, this loosely means "accessible from everywhere), plus 4 character expressions are much more catchy
