As someone who just started playing around with C++ after many many many years of absence, i must say i am surprised how well it goes. I love the new "auto" keyword for variable declarations. I had a hard time to get into pointer arithmetic

I just hope that Motorola+Google will be a rolemodel in the future in this regard. The Google Nexus devices have been very good to go for modding. Now Motorola needs to do that as well. They could even make us of the modding scene to provid

I see, i have no clue about "pro" music stuff so let's hope they fix that... (says 40ms on my phone).

Well, i don't know.. i have a very slow internet connection and a very standard 1366x768 resolution (which i guess is by far the most common nowadays on laptops!). I wouldn't want to wait like 4 times as much to view webpages! I can underst

Mh, i just tested on my phone ( https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=de.darkbloodst... ) and i don't see/hear a latency, certainly nothing above 100ms, so i don't think your remake "NONE of the devices currently on the market.."

I am wondering how true this is with Android 4.1+, because audio latency was one of the major goals for Android 4.1 and more so in 4.2 and was supposed to bring audio latency on par with iOS. See: https://developer.android.com/about/versio

What niche apps would that be? I mean the same statement can be made for Android and Widget Apps, Homescreen Apps and whatever else is not possible on iOS. I doubt the amount of your niche apps is more then a fraction of those :P P.S.: My p

Sure, it could be made easier, but i am wondering if it is done on purpose. Android encourages the developers to stay away from the NDK unless it's really necessary. Making it easier to build incompatible apps (= NEON) would surely mean mor

You have to have some limitations, it's not like every Android device can do NEON.

I always felt like the lockscreen itself is a total waste. Most people don't use complex security mechanism on it but rather some slide stuff and why? It wasn't possible to disable the lockscreen for a while but at least now it's possible t

So, are you saying i can buy this movie online, put it on my NAS and play it on my: media player, Linux laptop and transfer it to my iPad or Android Phone for travels? That's just a dealbreaker, and i'm sure not only for me. As long as the

Eactly.. i'd buy without DRM, for sure! But this way i will not be able to play the movie on my media center or my (Linux) Laptop. So, great move Disney, but not enough. :(

That's a good point and demonstrates very well how far you can customize.

Mh, no, the 3D cylinder is not even default ( i think ) and it's just one option of many. I have set it to normal scrolling behaviour as we know from other home screens. The 3D cylinder is just one option. This example shows that you can ha

Well, there are quite beautiful homescreens and widgets for android. You don't have to use them but i would say that iPhone users are just missing out on something. Sure, you are used to just take what Apple gives you and praise that but i

I don't care about two window managers (besides, Enlightenment seems to run on phones as well as PCs). Why would you like to carry a second computer when it's not needed anymore!? I don't get that argument..

by buster 14y ago
Exactly. I don't want and can't store work documents on some 3rd party system in the cloud. And my whole point is to have one piece of hardware and not half a dozen. Of course Apple would like you to buy all kinds of hardware instead of one

Ultimately this leads to my dream of only carrying a phone with all my stuff on,going to work, place it in a dock and start working with the phone as my PC replacement.

For me it's signatures ( http://redmine.yorba.org/issues/5458 ) and a decent full-text-search (on the roadmap). Only thing remains is what to do with events/invitations..

To be honest, i'll still book where it's cheapest. Usually i use a lot of those sites, including tripadvisor, etc. to check for accomodations and in the end i'll book where it's cheapest. I'll check on google maps for hotels, check online p

There is xmlrpclib inlcuded per default and it does all the XML stuff, so i think you can easily get away far more readable then what is shown in the python reimplementation of the PHP function. http://docs.python.org/2/library/xmlrpclib.

I would hardly say that it proves it. It doesn't prove that being a little bit more polite and to-the-point wouldn't be as effective.

Writing a wall of text with insults and a low amount of real communiction is not effective. It's also nothing to do with political correct. Linus' second post in the mail thread is much more technical and much less insulting.. more effectiv

Well, i like to argue about things i am passionate about too. With friends, with colleagues, with my boss. But i try to reason with them. I don't just tell them to "shut the fuck up".
