You can sue directly, no? The damage should be easy, you thought you bought something and weren't delivered it, so just refund all costs.

The pinephone uses a 5 year old chip. This is because it takes ages for open source heroes to write all the software.

> fix issues and send them upstream Fat chance. An average programmer will replace the library if the current one has issues, not fix the issues in the library. It is rational to do so (assuming a different lib exists, which it does for

In general paying content producers allows them to produce more content. If it's neutral for the (legitimate) end user, but positive for the creator, why would you not use it?

I see there was a misunderstanding. The owner of the payment terminal has to be the trusted root, not the manufacturer .

I haven't used WADL, but WSDL stands for Web Services Definition Language and is an amazing way to define endpoints and messages with type safety. From these you can generate bindings for pretty much any language or protocol that has a

A random third party owning the trust root doesn't help you in any of those situations.

Well sure, if you want to print wirelessly, you're going to need wireless (LAN is enough, no need for WAN though) :)

I agree. I was referring to the recent murder that caused the protests, which did not use a weapon, but a restrained person did die.

Yes, having one core at 2x clock is definitely better than having two cores at 1x clock, I'd agree with that. These days however, the difference between fastest core performance on low-core processors and fastest core performance on hi

Lots of European countries (and probably the rest of the world) also copy US laws for no apparent reason. More or less everyone I know has tried drugs (MJ, magic mushrooms, LSD) or does them on a regular basis, but I don't know anyone

I mean, RPG describes a lot of games. Baldurs gate and Diablo are both RPGs but are pretty far from each other. Even Team Fortress could be classified as a RPG with the most pedantic reading. That's why we have additional classifiers.

So a password with 10 characters is 1000 times less secure if you don't use case sensitivity. That's a big deal in my eyes.

In my country regulation is what works extremely well, and where there is none, you get price gouging. The government funds the majority of new lines, and in turn, the companies are legally mandated to rent the lines out for a small fee (10

My comment actually wasn't in relation to the GP comment, I meant that revenue taxing in the form of VAT works fine for certain situations. My current biggest gripe with taxation is that it's mostly paid in the countries where the

VAT is literally tax on revenue and it works fine. You tax the added value, so each company pays tax only on (sell_price - purchase_price).

It's perfectly ethical to write open source code that will crash a passenger jet if used in such a manner. It's unethical (and probably criminally negligent) to include it in a passenger jet.

>with a vastly smaller number Fun fact, there are a _LOT_ of prime numbers. There are about 10^22 prime numbers smaller than 10^24, so about every 100th number is prime. The ratio decreases the higher you go of course. The vastly smaller

This is my biggest gripe with it at the moment as well, it's horribly unresponsive. I think a UI specifically for mobile will have to be made before it's really useful :/
