Does anybody know how well the Mali drivers work on vanilla Linux (non-Android, non-Chrome Linux)? As a longtime Linux guy, these ARM machines (and the similar tablets) are enticing. I'm finding conflicting reports on the drivers, though. I

First of all, I think it might be good if the FTC sue Motorola to explicitly nail down how FRAND patents can be used. Secondly, I'm happy to see Motorola (Google) going after Apple and Microsoft with these patents. They are the two greatest

We (men) always seem to assume the women in these scenarios are physically desirable. Sometimes flirting is unwanted or off-putting, but we never imagine it going that way. I wonder if the same scenario was given to women would they make th
