If you're going to add any value to these numbers, don't leave out the estimated damages. In USD that number apparantly is 0.05. I understand that they don't want to risk a very high electricity bill, but if the damages are a

I like to (and am currently doing so) listen to Carbon Based Lifeforms. Their album Interloper is eargasmic. :)

The title says "infographic", and the word "vacation" IS in the infographic. Specifically, it states "47% have worked when they were on vacation". Under the image with a colspan of 2. ;)

I refreshed it at some point and I achieved "Refresh Prince of Bell Air". Nice sense of humour, and ridiculous page header (and I mean that in the most positive way). So impressive. :)

I could almost have written this myself. ;) I've been waiting for this release for about 2 weeks, since my laptop died and I had to replace it, and the installation of Slackware 14 didn't transfer too well (no networking) so I dec

It's very possible that Air France couldn't have them on a plane sooner. This can happen. But Air France would be smart to communicate this more clearly. It's bad enough having to be stranded somewhere, but to leave your pass

I SO second this, and I raise you an excellent web-interface to boot. I have it running on a (headless) server and it's simply wonderful. On the tablet, I installed Torrent Manager which can connect to Deluge (and other daemons like Vu

That argument sounds like it would work well if he were looking to purchase a ticket, and they would deny it because they feel like denying it. But I'm sure the ticket was already paid for, which changes the situation. EasyJet almost r

That is awesome, thanks! I think in my situation I'm better off not using that filter, as I don't have a phone that lots of people seem to have. :D And they have a filter for newest version, too. Maybe they should mark reviews tha

Seems like common sense to me? If I want to know if an application is any good, I look at the ratings and if it has a lot of good ratings, I look at the latest comments to make sure that the lower ratings are for older versions. Surely it&#

Thank you for the tip, I'll look into it. I also hope DDG will be fixed because right now, I'm having a hard time finding anything with it. :(

If I'd start a business like theirs and behaved the same way, it'd probably be considered old media as well. What bothers me about their attitude is that this is not something Spotify wants, it obviously is something the _listener

What? It'd be sad if the US DIDN'T spy on other, friendly nations? And, am I not a grown up for seriously being angry about all this then?

It is, but tax evasion and fraud are also considered to be a felony which makes this somewhat less outrageous, perhaps. (Not that I think this should be considered a felony. Quite the contrary, actually.)

If it is indeed terrifying, have they not become terrorists themselves? They may not blow you up (well unless you live in Afghanistan or Pakistan or so) but this is another one of those signs that something is quite wrong. Unfortunately not

Good point about using this to get me comfortable with the keymapping. I dunno if I'll get too depressed from dying over and over before I get the hang of it though! ;)

I certainly like VIM, it's my default editor on non-Windows operating systems, but I really don't care one bit about the h,j,k,l keymapping; I can use my arrow keys, which I find to be lots easier. So I TOTALLY suck at this game b

You're quoting such wordings as "effectively no longer exists" and "as good as dead", not "no longer exists" and "is dead". The article seems to be pretty nuanced already.

Thanks for pointing out possible nuances. Unfortunately: (1) I searched for this exact phrase (using Google :P) hoping to find the nuance to prove me wrong. I found it on Wikipedia [1] as well as on The Huffington Post [2], the latter actua

I understand what you mean but looks can be deceiving. If you saw a picture of Keith Alexander, you might think he looks like a decent guy. In the case of Dotcom, I might also be a little cautious although I'm not aware of any actions

Yeah, I don't mind big memory usage per se. I have tons of RAM, 8GB in fact. Take 1 if you need it, if it results in a responsive application. Chrome uses something like that right now. But if I hit ctrl-t on Chrome, I INSTANTLY get a

They removed the checkbox from the options but if you look in about:config you can disable Javascript. So that's a yes and a no? :P
