People don't care about their despotic and toxic environment for the little guys or competitors because they have the best products. That seems to be changing as Android increases in marketshare every day, and Ultrabooks are taking off

Gnome 3 is turning out to be the best DE on any platform. It's by far the most polished and innovative I've seen. I never thought I'd say that 3 years ago.

Well, without Google's proprietary Play Services, it's practically unusable by itself.

While Checkout was deprecated for months, this marks the fourth in several huge shutdowns by Google. Reader, iGoogle, AOSP, and now Checkout. Not to mention their 3E mantra with companies like Sparrow and QuickOffice. Is there any way that

Awww... no WindowMaker. This is one of the things that made me switch back to Linux from OS X. Inspired by this thread: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=6270254 I started running #! on a Tecra M2, and I now switch betwe

You can baremetal a full Ubuntu install, but chroot is easier and lets you preserve some niceties of Chrome OS (fastboot, easy interface when you don't need full Linux, etc...). It's preference. If you want to run Linux straight,

You don't need to install Xubuntu; you just run XFCE on top of Ubuntu in a chroot environment with crouton and you have a full Linux desktop at your fingertips.

HP really killed it with this notebook, but I can't help think that it would be even better with Bay Trail. Running crouton w/ Gnome 3 on native x86 when I need it and Chrome OS when I don't is extremely appealing to me as a

This is impractical and unimportant. It's a schtick, a useless gimmick -- something you'd expect from a struggling company like LG, probably not from Microsoft, Samsung, or Apple. I don't know why Asian tech companies with to

Barely. OpenDarwin is dead. WebKit was stolen from KHTML. CUPS has barely any development anymore. Apart from LLVM, what have they really contributed to OSS? Okay, it's more than Microsoft, but net contribution is still nothing compa

I'm not quite a security expert, ask tptacek for confirmation, but you can never be sure. However, signs do start to crop up, and I haven't had any of the supposed "symptoms" of something like TSS/TDSS.

This notion that there will suddenly be 5000 gazillion 0days as soon as XP loses support in April, and that as soon as you go on the Google homepage on May 1st, is ridiculous and absurd. I've been running unsupported XP SP2 on one of m

Every time I see something like this, I would normally go on some boilerplate rant about the troubles of our government and society, and how USG should be paying NOAA instead of the RIAA, MPAA, NSA, and CIA and how this corruption is awful

Good. Let it die. If anything, this will encourage people to move off of that horrid platform and onto something different. There's no excuse to be using Acrobat anymore; there are dozens of better solutions for PDF doctoring and creat

It's about time. I hate to be one to advocate piracy, but this massive leak of source was something that we needed desperately. It's illicit, but it will help free software and reverse engineering in a huge way. Adobe doesn't

Seems to be following all of the recent clichéd design trends. /. always had a distinctive style, and that's been bastardized. Not impressed.

That's feasible, but schools are too interested in looking "modern" and "sleek" by using Apple devices, so they won't use Kindle because its interoperability with Apple devices is not as good as something like
