We will remember this day as we tell over to our children about innovation in this peirod. The latest and greatest technology becomes obsolete the same day it is announced. To further prove my point. Yesterday, HTC announced a phone running

Then it is 0.89 per TB and that's for UK customers. French customers and customers who sign up through ovh.com get a completely different bandwidth structure. They get "unbilled" bandwidth but only get a few hundred mbps dedicated with each

Most of the verge commenters seem disappointed at the news. Most of hacker news commenters seem delighted at the news. Seems like consumers trust Google a lot more than hackers.

OVH in Europe has 1tbps in combined IP peering/transit. They are renting servers with 10gbps ports for about $200. Just yesterday they added 80gbps to Paris. http://forum.ovh.co.uk/showpost.php?p=41454&postcount=33 Hope Sonic builds a

In Jerusalem it is possible to get Coca-Cola from two different plants. One is the Israeli plant near Tel Aviv. The other is a Palestinian plant near Ramallah. I can tell the difference in between the two. The Israeli plant adds aromas to t

There are some good UI ideas. Wish the Linux desktop designers would implement some of them.

I hope the work on the issues before Windows 8 comes out. With Chrome being ported to Android I wonder if they will merge Chrome OS and Android. Provide a more Chrome OS app management system when dock or attached to a monitor.

Its more like among {NPAPI/Firefox/Windows, NPAPI/Firefox/Linux, NPAPI/IE/Windows, PPAPI/ALL, etc}, NPAPI/Firefox/Linux provides the least value.

by shimon_e 15y ago
They are basically saying due to Pepper there is no or little work in getting flash to work in Chrome on Linux... so there will be continued support. The real question is if this is true, why are they dropping flash for android?
