asking for a full frame DSLR with a k-mount for over 10 years. Still nothing but shady rumors. I guess it's time to ditch 40 years worth of collecting Pentax lenses and switch sides.
If you really want to see a goofy interface, pick up a pentax DSLR.
Pantax? Goofy interface? Pentax users navigate between captured images with a d-pad, and zoom in and out using the rear scroll, unlike the unfortunate canon and nikon users that have to contort their thumbs to reach to tiny zoom in and out buttons at the edge of their camera bodies.
This makes me wonder if the S4 pre-dates the phones that have backdoors built in to him. He is one of the few people who would be informed of which phones are actually safe to use. The fact the man has unlimited resources and chooses a phone that is 4 years old is interesting.
I got tired of the perpetual beta aspect, especially when it came to always being a step behind on new hardware integration.
When was this? Feels to me like the exact opposite has been true for the past 5-10 years. For example, Linux got USB 3.0 before _anyone_ else did.
DisplayLink USB videos, SLI/CrossFire on notebooks, Miracast.. well we do have miracast on Android. Granted most of them due to the lack of support by their respective manufacturers, but the end result is still the same
So you can download only the things that you need for offline installation. On anything connected to the internet, each *buntu is a couple of repos and apts away
They are as serious as can be concerning " The Cloud ". Putting an enormous amount of emphasis on it company wide.
...As in Lenovo X86-64 servers? If they went with Ubuntu, then it must be X86-64, right? Sure, IBM will still be providing support for the X Server for years to come...
Yes, A linux OS running enterprise applications in the cloud doesn't generate as much revenue as on the desktop.
The thing is that most companies that decide to deploy linux on their datacenter are most likely prepared to support them inhouse. In my case, only 50% of my linux deployment, which we classify as critical system, are covered with Red Hat services. The rest of them are supported inhouse. And they are inherently stable and rarely break to begin with.
It's difficult to sympathize with the economic plight of a government that wouldn't even let me board their national airline because of who I was born to.
But they aren't really pledging anything to you or anyone aren't they? In fact they are being smart and responsible by responding to their economic condition by cutting expense instead of doing business that is costing them money. Good for them
Interesting, because the mobile game I play "Castle Clash" which is available for just about every platform under the sun lags behind on iOS compared to Android, by a considerable amount. It can be weeks before updates to the game make it to iOS. On the other hand Amazon which has a smaller user base than iOS gets the updates much faster, usually only a day or two behind Google Play, and sometimes even in advance
Castle Clash and its' ilk are ad supported and freemium no? The likes of them tend to go with platforms that provide more eyes, in this case android (and to certain extent, Fire OS)
> This isn't the company's fault. They have the money and are willing to hire employees, but no one qualified is applying.
If no one qualified is applying, then you need to grow one. Get someone with general understanding of the required fields and train them. Create proper documentation and knowledge base so that people can learn appropriately. You might still not get a proper vacation next year, but 2-3 years from now you might.
I have no problem with ad on the margins of the page. Slashdot has three up right now and they don't block my view of the content, they aren't playing music or videos (chewing up my bandwidth), and nothing opened a popup. Those are Ads in the tradition of a news paper.
The Fucking Ads are the opposite. They block the content, force you to find that little X in some corner...if they didn't put a fake one in that's just a link to another page. Fucking Ads seem to be loaded first. So if some Ad service has shit slow servers, it takes forever for a simple Text article to appear. Fucking Ads also hijack random clicks. Ever click on a page to be sure the scroll is focused on the page and not something else so you can use the scroll wheel...and here comes a popup.
Fucking Ads are also dangerous. To get rid of them you have to interact with them. Who knows what the fuck will happen when you click that close button?
So if they just stick to what they've been doing for the last 200 years, we're fine.
Try opening slashdot on an android browser. Oftentimes, I got redirected to a playstore page for a games or apps

Do you mean this?

It was chosen for him
Hopefully, unlike MY Samsung S4 his doesn't have the dreaded ‘SIM card not inserted’ error.
I had this problem a month a go with my S4. After a trip to my carrier customer service to replace the SIM card, that problem no longer exist
...run out of Arabic terrorist organization to blame on?
Now we know Clippy is the source of cancer
Next computer I get, and I'll likely be in that market soon, I do not think I will get a Windows machine.
Well, unless you want a mac, you're most likely going to end up buying a Windows machine even if you plan on overwriting the OS.
I thought /.ers build their own computer. Even if it's a notebook, there's plenty of choice. My Vostro came with Ubuntu
My Pentax camera shoots natively on DNG. Ha!
Well it's an LTS release that formally supports Bluetooth SMART function (with Bluez5) so I can use my spiffy Logitech MX Anywhere 2 in bluetooth mode

Or the sequel after that, "watching the grass grow while waiting for the paint to dry"
They embraced the web, and extend it with ActiveX. Then they extinguished Netscape, since it wasn't compatible with everything that uses ActiveX

More like http://shop.lenovo.com/us/en/accessories/buythinkpadstack/. Which you can actually buy today! Or order..
I do remember Google forcing secure boot to hardware manufacturer so I can't install my choice of OS to a hardware that I own
Hardware wise: They went with IBM.

...what is this? Some kind of protection money? Maybe a protection censorship?
and electric vehicles, space tourism, and IoT!
