Much better than I expected. I've been concerned that they're making lemons recently with the total black box MBPs. iPads I can understand being sealed/disposable but not MBP line machines. Good on Apple for friendly engineer

Well if it wasn't for all the heel-dragging with IPv6, this wouldn't be a problem.

Yes, the cables shipped with the devices.

I did. Which is why I have a Nokia Lumia 820 (which charges via USB or wireless charger). It's not about preferred configuration. It's about not producing tonnes of electronic waste by having to require an unreasonable magnitude o

Just like AirPrint (IPP), AirPlay (DLNA), AirDrop (Bluetooth/OBEX), Facetime etc... Basically as usual, it's Apple and everyone else . I'll stick with my USB charger thanks as it is 100% ubiquitous as I will my Internet

A&A refuse customers who opt in to filtering. http://www.aa.net.uk/kb-broadband-realinternet.html This is the correct solution to the problem.

I have access to several machines on UK ISPs. Quick SSH and poke with links on each machine. 1. Easynet - all work fine. 2. Andrews & Arnold - all work fine (this is expected) 3. O2/Sky - all work fine 4. BT - all work fine All of

Huh? Where did you get your crack pipe? Windows has made a reasonable DAW for at least 10-15 years. And hell I don't even use a PC. Some of us still use workstations (Korg: you rock).

Windows latency is fine. If you use ASIO drivers. However you can't beat real instruments for latency.

I think it's funny that someone else picked exactly the same example however I respect your opinion on the subject.

Info is horrible. Case in point: Awk manpage: http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=awk Gawk info (in html): http://www.gnu.org/software/gawk/manual/gawk.html Both fully describe

I had random ports breaking back in the dark ages. Turned out to be a dodgy RAM stick in the end. ECC is a requirement for me now when the host machine supports it.

No. The JRE can ship with the app. The CLR ships with the OS.

Some are, some are not. Some are so bad it's unfunny. Literally someone has read the COM IDL and made up some padding. The core protocols like MSRPC are poorly documented i.e. the interoperability specs. They definitely have more than

And of course if we look at recent history we see where that technique goes terribly wrong (Xerox document archival compression).

Sounds like Java 8!

They did release it, source code and all. Unfortunately with a shit license. I had it building on FreeBSD back then! They did the right thing for them but not the community. Isolation and ecosystem ate tightly controlled at Microsoft and al

Yes their technical specifications for protocols and formats are wonderful since they released the open specification promise! Oh no wait, for those of us who have actually used these specs (in my case MSRPC/DCE), it's a hopeless

Which is the problem with Linux as a whole for me. WiFi configuration is a particular problem where everything has awful documentation so when you need to set up your WiFi without NetworkManager or some other behemoth, much eye poking and g
