The inability to install anything on the desktop OS apart from the Office makes it less compelling as a laptop. But the jailbreaks will come sooner or later, anyway. edit: oh, you speaked about x86 version. Well I would guess this will have

Well, Zynga and co. did this to themselves. They spammed the walls to no end, so Facebook just had to axe them. If they didn't overabuse the game posts so much, people wouldn't be so pissed and they wouldn't shut the channell down completel

My first program was in QBasic, but I actually learned how to write code in turbo pascal. :) ...and delphi. and c#. and java. and perl. and scala. But well, you know what I mean. (and I learned how not to write code in C++ and PHP.)

OK, please educate me. (Take me as a model web developer.) I occasionally quickly hack some stuff together in php/javascript/html. I never figured out what should I do exactly to actually set up Apache to work with https, without needing to

If you want to have a shared folder that you share between people you trust, it's still the simplest solution. It's very low-level, but it works. Yes, you can buy a cloud offering, but physical disk is still way cheaper than "cloud disk". Y

yes, but, in the language of conditional probability: P(spammer|non-tor) is quite low (there are not that much spammers), while P(spammer|tor) is almost one (almost everyone coming from Tor is a spammer).

I am not sure if pirating something you bought is actually technically illegal or not. You are not buying the disk with the data, you are buying a license to run the software. Even when you pirate it, the license should still apply.

With their own map app, they can push location-based advertisments and have greater control over it. Google is made on advertisments. Google wants as many people to use its maps as possible.
