You can, it's very easy. That's probably why 10S is there, to stopgap chunk of the population before they see how easy it is. Was your first laptop a cheap 10S? or chrome? or did you install it yourself on a thinkpad? It's al

I'll only partially agree to that. In the segment of operating systems, windows differentiated and promoted 'home' 'pro' 'ultimate' , etc. They already paved the terminology and more importantly trained th

Oh I agree with you on that one. They are stable games, just not on the production level with your average PC game. About the UX, not sure if it's just me, but I want more character or object control when playing a game. I guess I have

That was a story that I found outrageous. I recall my distant relative and another few of my friends got a house here in Toronto when they were 1/4 - 1/3 of what they are now. All while their salary being maybe 10% less. And then

The user experience gets better with more options. A 'superiour' user experience implies lots of options. I.e. luxury car with all the gadgets, etc. A stripped down application, void of options, doesn't provide a 'superi

Yes. So in essence, if one zooms out enough, desktop software has to make a comeback in some form. Otherwise the hooks that saas will establish nowdays will be much more nasty for progress, than anything IBM could ever envision doing.

But tomatoes aren't just volume and red color. If anything, complex chemistry has to take place to saturate them with variety of stuff. It depends which camp one is in. Are they after the volume or the nutrients.

That's not true. We grew tomatoes long time ago. Most of them had amazing taste. Even the 'commercial varieties'. The problem is that tomatoes need lots of sun and time. They are spinning that in the article, and I'm sad

Or they can simply leave them a bit more in the sun. You know, to do what evolution tuned them to do across eons. Today: Profits >> nutrients.

Amd cpu line is rolling out. You can buy ryzen. Vega is coming out this year. Volta isn't consumer based. Go check the enterprise prices. Consumer Volta is mid 2018, so this, from a consumer perspective, is a paper launch.

I think you are wrong on the Google front. Google did everything to please devs. Take apple for example, they won't think twice about refusing your app. Google OTOH, since the early days, lacked so much in the Appstore, that they let a
