Omg, > git-molest-headincorrectly molests upstream heads using remote indices, while performing suitable hooks to tabulate the given heads. This is a bit too edgy.

Famous actors have huge PR capabilities, they definitely can support labor efforts in other industries or help suppress it. Call for boycotts of union-busting companies, help elect pro-union politicians and so on. Or be Ronald Regan and get

Absolutely. Maybe the term is already coined, but I don’t know it. Open source implies the ability to compile software from human-generated inputs. This is just self-hosted freeware.

Of course, it’s not open source. With proliferation of the cloud, software has obtained an entirely new level of closeness: not being able to see the program binaries. Having an ability to run locally is now somewhat open in comparison.

Those are different people. The ones who die early don’t have disposable incomes that are high. At least on average.

EU has a bunch of states that have been in the Soviet Block not so long ago, even 3 countries from the USSR. This is way more diverse than USA at least as far as the economics go.

They claim it’s continuous. If continuous values itself were that great then the vinyl records were great for data storage. The problem with continuous values is noise, durability and precision. You can made vinyl disks with incredibly high

Vinyl records also don’t have 0’s and zeroes, it does not make them better than Blu-ray. MLC NAND have more than just 1’s and 0’s, they have 0..7 or even 0..15. Does anyone really want to process analog data?

It’s more of the driver’s fault, right? BTE, Windows has a Ctrl+Shift+Win+B shortcut to restart the graphics driver if it bails out.

The angle is estimation of the resolve and prospects of the strike. Does WGA have a strike fund? There is also a big difference between a factory that can’t be stopped for months and Hollywood that can operate without scripts until the box

Sony and Microsoft are buying game developers left and right. Will the courts allow Microsoft to buy Sony gaming business? Microsoft is also getting ready to eat Steam’s lunch for a while on the PC side. Will that be allowed to go through?

Games are bigger than most movies. Besides, gaming was responsible for a lot of innovation in computing, we all know how well that will go under a Microsoft monopoly.

If Valve is bought by the likes of Microsoft and HL3 is released I’m pretty sure it will be utter garbage. Hunt Down the Freeman is the HL3 we deserve. Heck, I’m still mad that Microsoft caused DeusEx 2 to be downscaled and dumbed down for

Game streaming is a death sentence for game preservation. It will also be pretty bad for quality. Are your users playing a better older game? Kill it and replace with a worse more predatory one. And no one ever will be able to play the old

Unfortunately, stopping mass murder, rape and torture is not a very compelling argument for pragmatists. As it was with WWI and WWII. Fortunately, there is a very good pragmatic argument for helping Ukraine win.

The whole point of targeted advertisement is to avoid this. The old-school blanket approach had this issue as well, but did not promise to know if the if the potential customer had a mattress already.
