The same issue occurs on 4.4.4 (and other versions), so it's not specific to 5.0.1.

There are a ton of incentives to not work the 55-hour week as an employee even when it's paid 1.5 or 2x. Health and having time to do other things are probably near the top of the list, but there are many others like morale, avoiding f

Neither the phone nor the OS are obsolete as they're both in use and capable of easily matching any phone released today as far as functionality. Obsolete would be a phone that cannot run current applications due to hardware or softwar

I do regret upgrading. My wireless trackball and mice no longer work smoothly and this is a known problem apparently with RF and bluetooth pointing devices. It's one thing to make things slower or for new features to be buggy, but maki

Well then they shouldn't do it at all or rethink their algorithm altogether.

This would be easily rectified if they looked up the words on each side of the hyphen. If they are actual words, then that hyphen should not count. If they are just partial words, then they should. But removing a book from circulation based

I'm not so sure a future where the Internet is mostly composed of non-sheep would be a negative thing, just like it wasn't a negative thing in the 90's and even the early 00's. I actually think it'd be positive. Whi

If they don't work, they're not a safeguard for the accused, except in the case of police where they obviously wrongfully work as evidenced by the cases cited. It seems to me, that in many cases, they're also a safeguard for

So this basically removes the limitation on how long encrypted intercepted communications (simply any encrypted communication at this point) can be retained. I doubt any limits were followed in the past, but this makes it officially disturb

At the absolute least, there should be a trial if the accused is known to have committed the homicide like the cases mentioned in the article. In one case, it was caught on tape, and in cases of a shooting ballistics can easily prove this.

by joesmo 12y ago
No. What I'm suggesting is that in cases of alleged homicide and other grave matters, the case go directly to trial regardless of what the prosecutor wants. In other words, if a case were to go to a grand jury, that's skipped and

by joesmo 12y ago
How about also ending grand juries altogether (or at least in cases of potential homicide)? It's obvious that the people on the grand juries are not qualified to asses anything and it's an archaic system not employed by any other

I think what most people here are missing is that TPB didn't actually host any illegal content and yet it still got shut down and its members sent to jail. Sunde went to jail for free speech and distributing completely legal files. I t

So this justifies hating others' pleasurable activities enough to send them to jail? I'm not seeing the connection.

This doesn't explain the exact same behavior related to other pleasurable activities that people engage in like music, dancing, sex, food, etc. I don't think it has anything to do with drugs and everything to do with people's

I think this is a big part of it as well, though it's hardly unique. I don't think it's the whole story as what I'm describing does not only apply to drugs. In various times and places it has applied to music (jazz, rock

Vagrant has so many bugs in development (network issues, file syncing issues) that I switched to manually building my own VMs to save time . I would never use it or any tech built on top of it in development, let alone production.

Considering that just about all JS code running out there is likely non-free (except pure library demos usually), one could just run NoScript if they really wanted to block such code without losing out on much. It also seems like replacing

Sadly, the unit-test everything mentality leads to a lot of problems in other languages as well. Often times, it provides little to no benefit to anyone while adding complexity to code and changing design for the worse. In a typical applica

Can you explain why the foreign earned income tax exclusion won't work? I would think the foreign earned income exclusion would apply only if you pay taxes on that income to a foreign country, no?
