That’s the original title. I don’t see that it was changed after the information about his other donations was added. That’s not the point though, is it? He’s donating to a group of people that work to discredit climate change science, whil

What is the value of content offered on a site that would not have existed if not for AdTech life support? AdTech made it possible and easy revenu has become the main reason to publish online. Publish anything and generate revenue through c

Of course it’s “a Microsoft product” and that’s also the problem. This endless “surface as a possibly/maybe iPad killer” is pure click bait. Regardless, anyone who likes windows as a product, for what it’s worth, will never like macOS

As far as I remember (before I switched) they’re messing up nautilus and keeping older versions. Also installation, software management and other little things. This mishmash of ideas and concepts of two separate projects is bad. Ubuntu doe

Second comment about buying experience. I got a Dell XPS which is great, though I would never buy anything again from Dell due to their horrible customer service. By which I mean pathetically rude and unprofessional (German store). Desktop

Only way I’d consider is if it can ran Linux. Last thing in the world needs is a device with zero user control from a unscrupulous company like Microsoft.

I agree with the comment about their app (iOS). It really sticks out when you’re in the native music app, previewing samples which you can’t stream via your own Sonos set because of lack of support for airplay (coming soon I’m told, and the

Netflix is useful, I guess, but only if you’re willing to compromise. I can’t find there everything I’m interested in, and if you can afford only one streaming service, you’re compromising your intellectual curiosity and allowing someone el

I gave up almost two years ago. Keeping iPhone and watch, but I feel I can do much better on Linux (fedora). Second the comment about “make x great again”.

As an Israeli who had gone through an education system almost exclusively dedicated the history of Eastern European Jews and the holaucaust, I think it’s wonderful that we can now have real time and in color footage documenting how a so cal

What does it have to do with easier immigration law? Whatever the law the USA wants to enact thats their right, of course. What they’re doing now are crimes. They need to stop performing these crimes. Microsoft and other USA tech companies

This is a pile of corporate mambo jumbo. We know what’s going on. This is not about policy. Jeff session is not a politician. He’s a disgusting deranged person, with a horrible track record in targeting civil rights in the USA, which he’s

I agree. Microsoft simply can’t resist pissing on whatever they buy, just to make sure we know it’s theirs. I can see “Microsoft Source Control Pro 3000” coming, in enterprise and smb versions, and with “git” shadowed in their marketing mat

IMHO and from experiance, HR are probably the last people you want to involve. They are your enemy and will do their best to fail you, sooner or later, if they can. I’ve worked at Microsoft for 5 years and saw it time and again. When they w

Why? As far as visuals go, the Touch Bar (which dislike) is at least in line of sight and you hands are not over it all the time. Regardless, why not just improve on using one's phone the way you can already with some 3rd party apps...

Spacemacs feels very abstracted. It’s great to have so much work done for you, but the knowledge is not transferable. Unless you develop layers yourself and can understand the internals, be difficult to use your knowledge outside of spacem

Same here. It was the touch bar that did it for me. Didn’t mind the ports. Dell XPS with fedora 28 is so much faster, quieter and comfortable than any MacBook I had before (3 in total). Last MacBook I had bricked on me while I was trying to

Loved his enthusiasm. I feel very much the same about emacs. It’s endless and you can easily spend most of your day in it, experimenting. I got back to emacs few years back, than contributed to spacemacs (which is great, but also makes you

Horrible idea. Ethically. More so if the reader is not notified. You should probably add “loose potential customers” to the “cons” section. I would not follow such a link the way I don’t follow links to Scribd and such.
