I'm sure one day we'll be able to discuss Dwarf Planets without getting weepy eyed for Pluto, right?

Personally I'm hoping the next iteration of the Note sees a nice price drop to convince consumers to buy back in. I'd jump in at that point.

Seems more like "Pinterest for Arduino and Pi enthusiasts", to me. You say "For Programmers" and I expect something a little less hardware-y, despite the obvious overlap in interests and the programming aspect to the har

A single, 10GB rar file "All mail Including Spam and Trash.rar" Not sure what format the emails are in, as I've not actually begun downloading the torrent yet.

Cancer seems more scary to me than a stroke or a fatal car accident because you can try to prevent those things. Health choices can decrease chances of a stroke, being an alert/careful driver can decrease chance of an accident. Cancer

Unrelated to the article and discussion of policing, but how does money work in border towns? Do towns close to the border accept both forms of currency? Do people just carry both? Does using a credit card just do the conversion behind the

In case you didn't realize, scroll down. Lots of information and a few more scroll-triggered animations.

I think the initial setup would complicate things, but if setup correctly couldn't it just be an icon that boots up the VM or set the VM to start up on boot in batch script?

As someone who took the plunge into Debian from Ubuntu yesterday, thank you!

Looking back a few years at the dev log, it looks like it was one big update per year, then for 2016 we've seen an update every 2-3 months. So who knows anymore? I'm inclined to think these semi-rapid updates are to bring 3.0 out

I know that I often put off inputting my license on a fresh install because it's kind of a pain to hunt down. Or at least it's easier to dismiss the occasional notification than it is to log into my email and try to find the licen

If we're all popping crazy pills and pretending America is an Orwellian, Stalinist wet dream where people disappear for having dissenting political opinions, why not go all the way and just assume Russia is pulling all the strings?

I mean it worked for Pokemon Go. Take a mediocre game, slap a beloved IP on it, and it prints money. The novelty obviously has worn off quite a bit, although I think that has a lot to do with the unresponsiveness of the developers and slow

I love DDG in theory. In practice, I append !g to about half of my searches because the results aren't good enough. Say what you will about the privacy concerns, but Google knowing I frequently search for programming stuff makes findin

Over the years I've seen the reaction to a lot of those "Facebook is going to start charging money!" fake posts and it's very negative. I can't imagine the outrage that would ensue if twitter or Facebook offered a &

I think shoehorning something nobody asked for into a browser that has historically suffered from bloat and performance issues was a good indication of what the reaction would be.

I'm sure it has a lot to do with how I use skype (strictly as a text-chat client...not my decision), but I actually really like the linux client. It's stripped down and doesn't have all that fluff the Windows client has. Plus

A few years ago if you'd told me FF would be the RAM-sensitive browser, I'd have laughed you off the internet.

Judging by the backlog of bugs they wiped out or moved over to v4, clearly it does need maintaining. CSS and JS both always find a way to behave oddly in fringe cases, so yes they do need bug fixes here and there. I absolutely understand

Right now we don't have a maintained, release version of bootstrap. That's not really reasonable at all, imo. I understand wanting to focus on the next version, but maybe continue to maintain v3 until v4 comes out? Ditching suppor

I'll never understand remarks like that. The people who can put together something with similar functionality to Dropbox are by far in the minority. It's like having access to tons of scrap and be able to weld and dismissing metal

Is it even tinfoil-y at this point? Every time there's some new revelation or some new action taken by the president it all points to it being a faked coup to expand his power.

I think even the idea that Linux is a solid alternative to Windows for gaming is still a joke. It's immeasurably better than it was even just 5 years ago, but outside of Valve, indie devs or smaller studios, we're not seeing a lot

Why not? I've been using it for about a year now (switched from LastPass) and haven't had any issues. Kind of miss the in-browser features of LastPass, but seeing as how those are what's being exploited, maybe not so much!

The way I see it, they've got like two weeks tops to flesh it out more. Because after that, running around catching them and struggling against the weird gym system until you win is going to stop being enjoyable at all (and I do find i

>Very much like Sega did a while ago. Yes, but hopefully without a massive dip in quality of established properties. Although the writing was on the wall for that one, I suppose.

And god help you if your location is in a new development that isn't on Google Maps yet. It just jumps to the "closest" address by name. Suddenly "Chamber's Hill" becomes "Chamber Drive", which is 5 m
