> it's not usable for Europeans as we tend to use dots. We do? As a fellow European, I hardly see dots: mostly slashes or dashes.

I think most people do not see how this is somehow worse than being bankrupted for being sick. For the record, I don't either. I'll eat my dry bread if it means I can then continue to not spend the rest of my life paying back the

Do you have examples of sites that do not work in Safari but do in Chrome, then?

If I understand you correctly, this censorship only applies to Facebook. If that's correct, then I still do not agree with the statement 'there is no free speech' unless Facebook is your/the sole source of information.

Well, if the definition of free speech is 'it should be allowed on Facebook' then that's a horrible definition :) It does point toward a bigger issue, where Facebook is used and trusted by so many users that they do not acces

What makes you say there is no freedom of speech in the EU? I also live there but I do not experience it like that.

That could be. I also have zero scientific backing for it but for me, I would probably not have commented and indeed thought "oh, neat!" had it not been for the negative comments already made. That is also because "oh, neat!

While I get that it's easy to hate on and make fun of Microsoft, why not applaud them for making stuff like this that apparently is 'a given' in the linux-world. What's wrong with a good idea, even if, especially if, o

You can also use AutoHotkey[0] to create a script to emulate any keyboard layout. I use it (among other things) to provide me with arrow-key navigation on IJKL keys by pressing the left Alt + <key>. After the initial 'how does th

That's the whole point: you cannot use the car the same way as during the tests, even if you exactly match speed, acceleration, distance, friction, temperature and any other variable. The software that limits emissions is disabled du

How is embedding software that changes the way the engine behaves during tests versus during actual usage not fraud? The numbers may have been accurate _for an engine with the 'limit emissions' mode enabled_ but it's still fr

I don't think the point of the article was that EFF should _not_ fight government on privacy, but that it _isn't_ also fighting the same fight, for the same privacy, against corporations. At least, that's how I read it. It th

I agree. I've always held the EFF in a "they battle for good" light, without really researching their history or motives properly. So, it seems their marketing is at least effective.

This. The ability to quickly capture and annotate screenshots and the setup of multiple notebooks makes this my most-used (and most loved) Office application.

Seems to me that you can buy the SDK[0] (which is not much more than a Controller and a bracket to hold in against your VR headset of choice), so at least they've made some progress since 2014. [0]: http://store-eur.leapmoti

You mean a device such as the Leap Motion Controller? http://store-eur.leapmotion.com/products/leap-motion-control... They seem to offer a VR headset add-on these days, but I've only ever seen the 'basic

Because it actually is an A5 and not an A7. At least, that holds for the Benelux. I do understand the confusion, as they are very similar at first glance.
