Ah, I see. I discover awesome things on both platforms this way. On the performance side, Hacker News still takes 100MB of memory in Chrome, so...

If tools are used incorrectly, it's a problem. But don't say that static HTML was better or would be better, because it simply wouldn't on a high percentage of websites.

Obviously, it depends on the site. However, when you're on YouTube you don't want the site to suggest videos you're not interested in (or Amazon, products). When you're on a blog, you don't want "related articl

Aww, come on. People want and expect websites to be very close to web applications that react to who you are, what actions you take on the page and a myriad of other factors. That's just not possible with static HTML.

Personally, Xfce heavily configured to my liking, on top of Ubuntu Minimal (basically, I took the Minimal CD and installed xorg and xfce4-session). In particular I've installed DockbarX--a dock that integrates into xfce4-panel, and val

Wow, I'm in the exact same situation. Using Xfce and loving it so far, went through every single distro in existence. Cool series!

Personally, I've built the whole thing a month ago to understand all the moving parts of a Linux install. I think it's super-useful.

Well, they said there would be multiple attempts, so I assume they're looking for eye color, patterns in the fur and stuff like that?

I read about dog cloning a few years ago. I _believe_ it was done in China. One of the company's promises was that they would not charge for failed attempts at cloning. That lead me to think that they clone dogs and kill them if they d

Sure, but it's great for low-profile projects. It makes it easier to ask for support.

So, hold on--they can't write "China"..?

Phones are feature-complete now. The second iPhone was 10 times better than the first ones, but now you can hardly tell the difference.

I think you might have searched for that or "Japan"? I've never seen any of those.

Also: "thin", "elegant", "goal".

Is that from a fortune cookie? How many many Japanese candies by mail services are there, not a lot of competition here ;-)

The target market might not care or know what the OS is, but they'll want to use software they're used to: Google Maps, Facebook, Facebook Messenger, Snapchat, Tinder, Skype, games, etc. I'm just saying that whatever OS will

I don't know. I really liked Microsoft's phones, but there was no Google Maps, no Google Inbox, and bunch of other apps that I use daily were missing. Software is the problem for these OSes. The only way to be able to compete IMHO
