That's why I am of a firm belief that if you are going to pirate software, at least have the common decency to crack it your self and NOT REDISTRIBUTE. On a side note I am amazed that more developers do not sign their own code with che

I am dyslexic. I just used the screen reader on the iPhone to read to me the challenge text at full speed. It told me that I read 4% faster with BeeLine on :) apparently the iPhone cares, because I wasn't even looking at the screen. In

I would like to see a version that does selective highlighting. So it would highlight verbs and nouns, maybe bold famous names and dates, and gray out slightly transition words.

I think the difference in development comes in when you need to do some hardware testing. With apple you need to design for 3 different display sizes, with 2 resolutions each. You also have to test your product on (at most) 12 different dev

That's true, the IO performance is nothing to write home about. But the CPU / GPU is really good. The only Linux I got working on it is Kali Linux. But Ubuntu is also available. I think a SOC with dual SATA for raid would be reall

How about a crowd sourcing website for patent invalidation. Make it proactive. You get sued or threatened. You go online and post the patent. Maybe other people in the same situation, including once who have yet to be sued, can pitch in. Th

It's funny, this is the way it used to work in Ukraine back in the day. You would step out, wave down a car, basically any car. They would stop for a second. You say where you are going, if its on the way, they would tell you a price.

You have an authoritarian attitude. You have a particular opinion about how scrollbars should be, and you would gladly force your opinion upon me, if you could. Now, sure, that's a trivial matter. But I have a problem with the attitude

My guess is 20% reducted. But you have to remember, you can change the meaning of a sentence by removing just one word, or even a comma. The problem is, we will never know if we get the true meaning of the document. As an aside, if there ev

I think you have a strong preference in this case, and you wish to force your preference upon people in the name of the "common good." I'll let you figure out the definition of that behavior all on your own. Instead of arguin

I am of an opinion that one only needs a scroll bar when scrolling. On OSX the scroll bars are always visible when scrolling. You think you know better, and would like to overwrite my preference with yours. I don't think we will ever a

Some people argue that Apple limits the users by not giving them enough options. You are of the opinion that Apple provides entirely too many user options. Not only should the users always have scroll bars on, but they also should not have

This smacks of fascism, if I may be so blunt. It's preference as long as you do not hurt with your decisions any one else. Not turning your headlights on at night while driving on a public street is NOT a preference you can have, beca

This is some hard core hacking! Love it! First, as others mentioned, this is why you should always encrypt your os drives. Second, it also got me thinking, how many other devices are open to this kind of attack. Like a network switch, perha

If you have a Mac, try a free program called YouView. Google YouView Mac. It gives you YouTube experience, but uses the MP4 files YouTube hosts for the mobile platforms. I never have a problem with YouView. Some times it's slow, but at

I would like to patent a method for making money by filing completely obvious and trivial patents, pushing it through the PTO, and then suing everyone in sight. I am almost certain there is no prior art for this, right?

Even for a police officers, zero tolerance is a foolish standard. But in this case, even under the most lenient of systems, this cop should have been gone from the force a long time ago. I have known a lot of cops over the years, and I can

It's not that they are so formulaic, it's that they are so identical. It's as if every one who used bootstrap for web design also used identical color schemes and layouts. Take a look at the upcoming "RIP Department.&quo
