Samsung, HTC, LG are selling Android. Their other phones aren't selling really. If Nokia sold Android, they would be far behind in the Android market, and won't sell too many Lumias either. My feeling is that they are not sellin

Really? How will their marketing handle this? Imagine three entirely incompatible operating systems. Exactly the same way Samsung, HTC are/were handling it. Add to that, they need to sell Symbian for a few more years anyway. Nokia

A reply by a Gnome dev to an older bug (536271) about this is even more telling: I would even go as far as to disable middle mouse paste without exposing any GUI option for this [...] A hardcore unix person will shout and sc

The translation is not too bad in this case and the PDF looks legit. Btw this is from 2012. The question was if the technology they have is capable of decoding encrypted transmissions (e.g. SSH or PGP). The reply was that in general yes, de

There are different levels of public involvement and doing things in public is not as bad as you make it sound to be. Even if it delays things a bit, then I would still prefer the delay over a treaty that is not in the public interest. We h

For some projects it is already mandated in the grant agreement. I've heard that this will be extended to all project for Horizon 2020. I am also under the impression, that the EU protects researchers who post the full version of their pape

The project is organized into different divisions and measures have been taken to reduce the administrative overhead where possible. Having 50 small projects does not reduce administrative costs, you would still have an enormous amount of r

Unfortunately comment #14 doesn't say anything. He just posted the links to search on three bugtrackers for brightness. There is still no specific bug that he mentioned.

Perhaps it is not a very new or well supported argument, but this is not why TED chose not to show it. The TED curator basically admits that he doesn't agree with the idea and that he also finds it too partisan to distribute. I would be wor
