That explains why Apple and all the big Android manufacturers are basing their designs and innovations on what comes out of the Chinese phone makers, oh wait..

It most definitely does apply here. "Entropy may be understood as a measure of disorder within a macroscopic system. The second law of thermodynamics states that an isolated system's entropy never decreases. Such systems spontaneo

No, I'd argue that same freedom of thought is precisely what gives us in the West a huge edge over those who fear losing control over their proletariat as we are able to innovate and create far better, and to think those things aren&#x

It's starting to feel like China is a version of NK where they're allowed to leave the country (presumably in order to share the fruits of their 'logic' such as the case you mentioned).

I don't get how the irony doesn't just hit them like a brick. Foreign universities but with central control, like what's the point of even having a foreign university then, just send your kids to Chinese universities if you&#

I wish I could ask them how long they think they can keep the outside world outside? And wouldn't the shock for the Chinese people just be that much worse when control over the information inevitably breaks down? I've posted this

Companies have been known to be astute and flexible when it comes to spotting opportunities especially when their competitors are making very publicized mistakes. It remains to be seen whether AMD is one of those.

Sorry to go straight off-topic but if anyone from AMD is reading, please remove PSP from future and/or give us the ability to remove it from existing machines, this is a golden opportunity (with the Intel ME having been shown to be bro

I'm guessing this doesn't apply to those who are on KDE?

I also left Ubuntu recently, so I'm a bit of a Fedora noob but the KDE spin has been amazing, not sure if that's got more to do with KDE or Fedora though. The partition manager has an annoying bug hen opening in 26 so I'm hop

The usual big names (Dell, HP, Lenovo) do fine but as you have discovered, you need to avoid anything with a Nvidia GPU (Intel and AMD are usually fine). Also avoid Broadcom WiFi cards if possible.

From what I've observed, this is where the unending cat-and-mouse game begins for Sony.

Ah, but this is the light side of information. We keep uncovering these 1000 people, and the next 1000, until they realise there is nowhere to hide and their activities will become public knowledge. This is what they're scared of, afte

What's the point of assassinating anyone after the documents (Panama Papers) have already been leaked? Surely the cat's long out of the bag. Just ask Nawaz Sharif (ex-PM of Pakistan).

Being of Pakistani origin, I'm actually glad that the fact that this is a Pakistani kid has been mostly not remarked on and the focus has been on the science. It goes some way to normalising the existence of Pakistan as a place where

If judges can be persuaded to exclude medical experts because they went against what X company asserted then isn't the weakness in the system the judge?

Yes it does really matter. It wouldn't cost them much but would prove they are committed to the ideals of open source.

If you're in the EU, it's worth checking consumer laws. Valve and Sony and others have been allowed to ignore local laws too much until now.

Can confirm as a programmer in UK. I hit this wall recently when asking for extended leave to deal with a personal crisis. The colluded response from HR/the business was to give me notice.

Did you need to make any changes to get it to 200mb? If I can get it to that point, I would switch from Ubuntu. (Ubuntu takes about 750mb~ starting) Every time I've tried KDE recently, the starting RAM usage is closer to 800-900mb and

1.3 bn people are using WhatsApp. If we assume that only 70% of those have encryption enabled, that's a billion people whose data is standing out, therefore no one is really standing out any longer.

What I find most amusing about this company is that they even attempted to get away with spying on people in an justly-paranoid/vigilant industry like ours. Like, did they not think that we wouldn't catch them in the act? Don&#x27
