Thank you for this. I've been pressing skip on the small vertical pipes as a chimney to me is a made of brick. Curse being born in Britain!

Google's CAPTCHA is a cancer of the internet. We're all training their AI without any renumeration. I genuinely hope that some government figures out how to sue them. I've sat down for minutes, repeating CAPTCHAs over and ove

The creating of an account is really quite convoluted. There needs to be a way to create sub accounts. Finding content seems to be broken. Typing a search only seems to search for usernames. Needs a one-click reblog.

Samsung is a huge multi-billion (maybe even trillion) dollar company of which Electronics is only one division and you think it should be broken up because a (non-flagship) Samsung Gear Live watch wouldn't pair with (non-flagship) Sams

What makes this so bad for consumers is that if you search for an app via Google, you can't even open links directly.

Tox doesn't even have an official release. It's still in alpha stage development.

I have struggled to (on my travels) find an Apple charger that features the micro USB adapter. This has often lead to a dead battery.

Sorry to be slightly off-topic, but since you mention NoScript and are familiar with that, this (HTTPSB) and ABP, can I ask. Is HTTPSB more of a NoScript alternative or an ABP alternative?

The question has been a simple one: Continued dependence upon Flash versus DRM support in HTML. The answer is simple, transition the world to a post-Flash video. The problem, at least where Mozilla stands, is how do you go about that/w

They had it on a subdomain for ages. Glad it's finally the main site. It's actually beautiful. Now if only they'd redesign the Oyster bit too.

A lot changes in a month in terms of software development. Try it again and let us know if it still sucks by your standards.

Hopeful yes, but no one expects a drive failure before even half of the warranty has expired surely?

It's from Lacie, so no thank you. I bought a Lacie drive and proceeded to copy all my stuff onto it. Before I could get comfortable with it (so within the first six months of purchase) and before I backed up my stuff, the drive failed.

But how much were these services really offering? It is one thing to attempt to charge for a superior service, but for the most basic of services? That's a whole different story. IMHO, feed reading should be integrated into the browser as a

Essentially anything that mentions fragmentation is about spreading FUD. Let's not forget that you can limit your app/mag/etc to any devices you want. It's disappointing as the TNW are fairly reputable.

This is actually pathetic reading. > “You make a beautiful magazine for the iPad, and then you dumb it down for Android’." and then you read > "we pick movies from the iTunes store" So essentially, it was about being lazy in the fir

TBF to Mozilla, have you tried to submit a patch to Google? I mean look at the furore that's begun over Google's recent decision to remove the ability of apps to toggle Aeroplane Mode. It blind-sighted developers and Google haven't made a s

I've written some fantastic reviews. Why am I being punished by an unproven notion? This doesn't help anyone. It's merely a terrible marketing ploy to further push G+.

I have one because a lot of tech people are on there and it's easy to get news I don't wanna subscribe to. But given that Google won't allow me to use my actual internet identity of ten years, I've merely got the account set up as a first n

I used to write reviews all the time. Mostly to help developers and help other Android users who have the same device as me. As a result of this move, I no longer write reviews in the Play Store. Great work Google, you helped everyone other

"You don't have Javascript enabled" so let's show you just how badly we can make rendered HTML look. Great work there Quartz! As for the article, it's an article about racing, not sure why they mentioned football or the metric system at all

Who does? Tell me of the millions and millions of users out there waiting in anticipation of Firefox OS? Firefox decide to kill off around half of their Nightly (read most diehard users) and expect to carry that good faith over to what? Fir

I think when you make such a damning post as this, you're required to make sure all opinions are current and factual. I mostly talk about what seems to be a clearly outdated opinion of Firefox for Android (Mobile) which is widely regarded a
