Definitely! As a matter of fact the first google translated russian article i've read was from Igor Sysoev! I remember it so well because i was really surprised by the quality of the translation of such a highly technical text..

It's a shame that the author didn't take the oportunity to mak e the answers more readable. I read about one third of the article but found it to confusing and difficult to read :(

What i know is that every other OS on the earth allows that. To me it sounds just like a convenient excuse :) Easier to say "blabla security blabla" instead of "we shut down apps because we don't want competition". Even if it is true that i

My bet: Map apps are ok as long as there is no competition from Apple. Let Apple build up their maps app and the stance will change.

I recently switched to Cinnamon and couldn't be happier. I never really liked Unity, i used Gnome Shell and it was usable ok. But for my work nothing seems to beat the good old taskbar-based design.

That's where Android Intent system shines ;) My bet that Apple will provide something similar in the future. It's just too good. All that sharing stuff in Android, i really miss it on my iPad, it's imo the biggest feature difference between

No, seriously. There is one iPad, not the new one and the old one. So soon, there will be 2 ipads, virtually the same devices with different screen sizes. But people want choice. I'm not sure if this is different in the US or wherever you c

Apparently the driver situation is much different on phones. All the different SoCs need extra drivers, the graphic chips, the display, everything. It's very different on a PC (where you may have upgrade problems as well, if you have hardwa

I was wondering the same. Seems to me that it's mostly limited to games then.. Probably some interfaces for webapps which don't rely on phone APIs..

Did the same, btrfs for everything but home and will switch to ext4 with 12.10 because it feels much slower then the ext3 i had earlier. But i'll be sure when i upgrade. To be honest, what do i need btrfs for? I don't (and likely wouldn't)

In my experience those kind of companies are heavily involved with big players like MS, HP, etc. who all push their own proprietary crap. Bundle this with a "we don't allow employees to install other browers so why should we care/test/devel

You write YOUR scripts in bash, it's not about my scripts though ;) Also, it's annoying to constantly switch between zsh and bash when you are working on other servers over 50% of your time.

Been trying zsh for a while, ran fish for 1 or 2 years. Am back to bash because to many scripts rely on bash and wont't work on zsh or fish. Thing is, it's note that hard to get the mentioned features in bash. Good tab completion, good git

Yourline of thought is the same that i had for the last decade with regards to Linux. It's still not the year of Linux on the Desktop ;) And a big part of why is: There is no MS Office, no Photoshop and no Games. Same will apply for ARM/Mac
