Still going strong on most Norwegian channels. It's very good for a fast news/weather/stock etc. update, the interface is much faster to use compared to what you get with the web. Modern TVs cache all 999 possible pages, so flipping between

From a European perspective, that sounds really strange. I've got mobile broadband in my laptop. Imagine if the provider of that service would have a say over what programs I could run on my laptop. Very strange.

Scala, Clojure, Kotlin, Ceylon, Groovy and now Xtend. Going to be interesting to see what languages win out in what niches on the JVM.

I agree that it feels insecure, but is there really a difference between this and downloading and running files from a .tar.gz or installing a .deb for example?

HTC allows users to unlock the bootloader: http://www.htcdev.com/bootloader In my experience, HTC is pretty good (although a bit slow) with updating Android on their older models.

It seems to me that Ubuntu won't really be stable until Canonical seriously tries to monetize and market it in cooperation with one or more hardware vendors for wide availability. Until then, all Ubuntu users are essentially beta testers.

Firefox can use gstreamer as a backend for HTML5 video: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=422540 I guess a handset manufacturer could ship with e.g. H.264 support if they paid licensing fees. There are open source H.264 codecs

The fifth site on the list ( https://www.ifeveryoneknew.com/ ) of the guy that started that thread is pretty interesting. The five points listed there are well known and well documented. Those are not crazy unfounded theories. Yet most peop

I've worked quite a lot with both Java and Python and with Play and Django, and before I tried Play I would've agreed with you. The lightweight nature of Play combined with the speed of the jvm (compared to Python), static typing and IDE su

I've had to work with Play lately, and I find it quite delightful. It's butchering java as a language (or at least what's considered good practice), but since it works so well, you tend to overlook that. I'm also a fan of maven. There's not

That part actually surprised me quite a bit. I was taught in school that there are five continents (Eurasia, Africa, America, Antarctica, Oceania). I was also told that this is an arbitrary and unimportant definition, but I've always believ

Nice. Am I the only one that gets ~7 screen heights of spam for a specific brand benzodiazepine on that page (above the header) though? Also in the title "xxx Without Rx". Wtf? Using FF7 with Flashblock. It's right there in the page source.

It would be interesting to see exactly what heuristics were responsible for marking Chrome as malware. I'm guessing that it's based on something much simpler than what you describe since it's identified it specifically as Zbot. Too bad MSE

Here in Norway, anyone asking for a recurring payment will offer either invoice by e-mail or a more automated eFaktura (electronic invoice). After the first payment to a party offering eFaktura, you'll get the option in your online bank ser
