I love the idea of DuckDuckGo, and I used them for a year or so before I realized every other search resulted in frustration and me appending a !ge to it. So yes, there are alternatives, but I don't find them to be nearly as good.

Utilizing/developing AI doesn't define your company as an AI company though. All of that has consistently been second to the advertising. Almost everything they do ties back into their advertising business in someway. They're

Depends a lot on your needs. For my company, we don't give a shit about people on old browsers. They make up an incredibly small % of the visitors to our customer's sites and we've never once had a client ask for IE9 support

It me took about 15 minutes of reading an article to get a basic understanding and start using some basic functionality. I'd imagine the 20 videos explore every crevice of Flexbox, which you don't necessarily need to start using i

You still get some of that with existing graphing calculators though. There's a reason the #1 comment is about a TI-83+ game :)

That went from "Oh cool, I'll bookmark that" to "hey waaait a minute" real quick.

What I don't get is why they didn't make them match the Windows hotkeys. It was ALT+START+LEFT to stick something left, for example. Why add the ALT?

To give you an idea, my internet options are in my area: -Comcast (up to 100MB/s) -Century Link DSL (up to 10MB/s) -3G/4G modem (up to like 3MB/s) Then 10 minutes south of where I live, that county has deals with a local

Go to bestbuy.com a few years ago > TV section. Tell me 3DTVs are irrelevant. Doesn't matter what they're selling if most people still have HDTVs

I wouldn't say they're very upfront about it. If it's not truly ad-free, they shouldn't be marketing it as such. Including it in tiny text nobody reads isn't being upfront.

It's not a weird notion, considering it works fairly well for Hulu. Even their "commercial-free" tier features commercials on select episodes because "reasons"

Final episode of the series then features a monster that looks suspiciously like a pile of gravel.

I don't know that a post-TNG Worf would be all that interesting anyway. He largely overcame his struggle between his Klingon and Star Fleet self, which is where most of his appeal lay (for me at least).

Depends on the environment. If I saw a new laptop in my office I'd notice it immediately because we've only got one laptop. A huge office with machines all over the damn place, sure that would probably work just as well.

Oh I know, I meant that them placing the limitation for 31 days is primarily a marketing thing.

I think they're just saying that the option is there with those who have metered connections in mind. IIRC, 8.1 had a few settings for metered connections though.

In regards to your first question, Win 7 _is_ pretty great. Windows 8 is more the OS with the funky tiles and touch interface and 10 is the answer to those complaints. It has some of that still, but it's a nice hybrid of the features w

A realistic option, then? I've no use for anything else that DirecTV has to offer. I've got Netflix and Hulu, so I'm set on TV shows and movies. Unless you think paying that much money just to watch football is a realistic op

All I want is to be able to pick my team, pay like $15/mo and be able to watch my team play. I don't care about any other team at all, and my team isn't local by any means so I can't use an antenna. AFAIK, I don't h

Then I have to wonder what RedTube thinks about this. Mistakes could result in a lot of extra traffic, but is it worth it? I believe they're owned by the same company that owns 5 or 6 other similar sites, so maybe they won't be to

Agreed. I love what Plex allows me to do it, but the UI has taken a nose dive in recent months. Or at least the Roku app, which looks identical to this, has.

lol on what grounds could Google possibly sue RedTube? They don't own the word "tube", which has been a reference to television since the beginning. I don't think you know what you're talking about.

Okay, I'll say it. When I see "Red" and "Tube" so close together, my mind jumps to the porn site, RedTube. They can't possibly have been ignorant of this

Jesus, that guy. He's lucky it's a pretty neat-looking symbol. So in 10 years when nobody recognizes it he can play it off as some obscure video game reference.

I think the biggest problem was that nobody took it seriously, and I'm not really sure why. It was easily as good, if not better, than the iPods of the time. I definitely don't think it was an issue of timing though. the iPhone&#x
