What about the post today where it was revealed that the US Attorney chided Aaron on the day of his death? In the memorandum, it stated that they were ready to take his laptop and peripheral devices.

you guys will suffer the same fate as korea, who are forever stuck in IE6 due to ActiveX being used everywhere.

Do you really think an autopsy will reveal why he decided on suicide?

Sad, he just wanted to make the world a better place.

right, so what mcot2 is saying is that you're using most of safari anyway. safari was just a thin shell on top of webkit. I'm sure apple spent most of it's time improving webkit and not much time making the UI shell around it.

Do people still use JavaFX? I thought mobile support was dropped, and the first version of javafx for the mac came out last year. Is JavaFX only for people using java on windows then?

why not just get an external regulator then? those things are dirt cheap, around 20 cents for one.

It's basically an IR thermometer that outputs a color instead of a number reading. Those "gadgets" are already pretty cheap, so not sure if replacing the expensive passive display with a 15 cent rgb led would make anyone profit. I use this

You can still do it, you just have to do the captcha thing. Here, I created one just now, for you: login/pass: blah44141@gmail.com/mypass125

You never have to plug in your laptop to do presentations or anything? I feel like I do that all the time... plus you never know what type of lcd projector they are using. Sometimes a guy comes and tries to help you, but when they notice

Apple has a program called MFi, usually you're supposed to get a MFi license if you make hardware for the ipod/iphone family. Since idapt doesn't list MFi anywhere, I'm guessing that they don't license it, and they aren't popular enough fo

Well, it's not really drm -- the chip in there is used for lots of stuff. There was an article about the thunderbolt cable (which has a similar design to lightning) where it has a chip inside that cable as well. Note that thunderbolt was

I think most of the lightning cables actually have a chip inside, like thunderbolt. It may look like a simple cable, but there's some electronic stuff inside.

I think voltage is assumed to be 3.7v, the voltage practically all phones use in their batteries.

Weird, maybe everyone you know is old. I don't think I know anyone that cares about Apple because of Woz. Many don't even know who the heck Woz is anyway. Apple has hacker cred because they do have lots of engineers working on products t

Well, let's just say a lot of things don't work in linux either. Depending what you're building, sometimes it's reliant on a certain gcc version, or distro. Generally speaking, compile from source is usually the last resort if the package

X is pretty weird sometimes, you switch displays, or suddenly connect a third display, the only way to fix it is to reboot X. Sometimes it works, and sometimes it doesn't. I honestly don't know X well enough to debug the problem, so resta

Not sure how helpful your comment is either. It would be like saying how evil and vile you find the US government, and your response would be to tell them to move to another country.

I do go there, maybe once every few years. Went there 2 years ago. Those stories are not western propaganda. Some of those stories are even deeper than western propaganda could provide. I've heard a dozen other smaller stories from rela

At least in China, the "people" network is usually more trustworthy than the major media outlets. I can understand from the western perspective that we should be doubting social media first. People were posting pictures of the injured chi

by veemjeem 14y ago
Yeah, to put this in a USA perspective, it would be like ABC/CBS showing a single naked female breast on primetime TV and being "okay" with it. Usually someone would be fired for that...

by veemjeem 14y ago
Somehow I doubt this. Only a few days ago when the news of school shooting broke out, China had a similar incident a day later where a man stabbed/injured 22 children. However, that story was quickly snuffed and the only place you could f

Movie censorship is pretty strong in china -- even movies that have "bad" endings need to be revised before they can be shown there. Although I'm not a native, I do know that hordes of people take trips down to Hong Kong all the time, mere

You think just like every first timer on kickstarter. A friend of mine says she's never going to offer t-shirt rewards on her kickstarter projects anymore. In the end, it cost a lot more than what she thought, and involved significant phy

You make it sound so simple! If all projects were addressed with better budgeting and done in steps made of smaller projects, software projects would never miss a deadline. You should email Fred Brooks about how you just discovered the so

by veemjeem 14y ago
True, but honestly what do people think is right? People investing in kickstarter project are fully aware that the project could take a year or two to complete, it's not like he can suddenly pull the project out from his ass in a day. If

You probably didn't see the update, but Primer Labs announced that development is still continuing: http://primerlabs.com/developmentcontinues So backers should be patient and not threaten lawsuits because the project is taking too long.

by veemjeem 14y ago
It's also a false claim since CodeHero just posted an update saying that the project is continuing. Dustin was essentially lying through his teeth, because he had no evidence. He just wanted to incite a mob.

So it looks like all this drama was much ado about nothing. CodeHero just posted a response to all of this: http://primerlabs.com/developmentcontinues Can you believe this mess was all initiated by one guy boasting about filing a class

He only has an obligation to refund if he decides to cancel the project. As far as we know, the project is still continuing so he has no obligation to fulfill the refunds. In the faq you linked, here's a choice quote: >It's not uncommo
