what's wrong with Azure? I mean, if you're against cloud hosting that's fine, but what is wrong with Azure specifically?

It would seem to be bowing to what their customer base wanted (whether their customers realized it or not). Most of my personal/work devices are Windows and prior to the big change, on each one I'd have a virtual machine with a li

I believe the person above was saying that those who are most inclined to believe in the concept of a soul would find the importance of a definition of what a soul is to be on the low end of the totem pole. I'm not a huge fan of things

I wonder if this has a solitaire game that was in some random CD of various games I had way back when. I believe it was called Thieves and Kings, but essentially, you had a 4x4 grid and your stack of cards. Jacks go in slots in the 2 center

I'm curious, can you "upgrade" your car after the fact? Buy it and then later on call Tesla and pay for the software-controlled 'upgrade' you declined before? Is there any negative financial impact to it (are there

My guess is the main goal is to recoup R&D prior to a proper consumer launch. And you know what, I'm fine with that. Personally, I'm holding out for gen 2-3 of this form factor when the price comes down to Earth. But smart of

Due to best screen available. In that sometimes you only have your phone with you. Outside of the normal status-y nature of high end phones, I could see this being valuable to an exec/management as this would allow them to review Excel

My guess is because the people who found the Higgs boson, landed the lander on the comet, etc. are for all intents and purposes not well known: there wasn't a lot of fanfare for them so much as the discovery. As such, people are oddly

This seems strange to me. If we're going as far as to advocate cycling tracking IDs each month, that means that at each switch, we've lost our "relevant" ads until we rebuild them up. So why not go full on no tracking ID

In theory, it kind of is: as far as I’m aware, which I haven’t delved deeply into it so grain of salt time, but it doesn’t send data until you make that decision. And it isn’t like you have to dig for it: it’s presented to you explicitly. Y

I completely agree and I’m in the same boat (I’ll continue to use VS Code). That being said, it’s somewhat amazing we are now in a time when a Microsoft product could have aspects users don’t approve of and rebuild it without it: everyone w

My guess is that if anything, they'd turn Atom over to an external body to maintain and let it sink/swim on its own. Currently they seem to be fine with having both, which is cool. Maybe it is to have two separate teams work on di

I've personally never went to wikileaks looking at information gathered, but consumed it second hand from journalists reporting on it. As such, I didn't have a problem taking Snowden's leaks seriously yet wasn't eyeballi

The difference seems to be that most journalists report on the leaked documents, whereas Wikileaks essentially data dumps it. Not saying them releasing Podesta's emails was bad, just I don't think that's what journalists typi

I used a Honda Accord with a similar system and even had a similar experience to scenario 1 on the interstate (though I was set at 69). After I realized that the following distance control was the reason the car was going slower, I was init

Think that was with Hololens. Previously there were qualms with Office too. Though I imagine there'll be an open letter about this one too. Dunno, I try to be sympathetic to concerns, but don't work for a business that is willing

Anecdotal, but I hadn't heard mention of cats until today where apparently some cat he had was a mini-celebrity or something to that effect. I have read that he has danced on Ecuador's last nerve for a while, but that's essen

How is it a poor equivalency? https://amazon is an attempt at just entering the tld without anything else and https://com is entering the tld without anything else. Just because https://amazon.com exists,

Say there's a startup that is going to revolutionize date keeping and events and scheduling and all that, for the sake of aping a common naming scheme, call them Calendr[1]. Only drawback is that their security is an afterthought, but

At this point, I'd just settle with set top boxes (is that what they're called still? The DirecTV, Dish, etc. digital ones) that had a button to locate the remote.
