You know SpaceX is trivially profitable, right? The only reason it's losing cash, if that, is because Musk puts everything back into research because beating every other rocket in existence isn't enough for him, he also wants to beat rockets that don't even exist yet and maybe never will exist.
The word "loser" is not applicable to SpaceX in any form.
All my desktops are safely running Firefox 52 and will continue to run it until I'm forced to switch to a Firefox fork that supports TabMixPlus, because if I have a choice between a browser without TMP and one with it, speed is basically a non-topic and security only a tangential consideration.
What really fucked me was the Android auto-update to Firefox 57. Because the UI assumes it's themed in white, it forces the Android top bar white.
So I can be reading a site with a dark theme, running Firefox with a dark theme... with a glaring white bar on top, shining like burning magnesium.
This isn't just an annoying bug - it's a *showstopper*. It makes the browser straight-up unusable for a primary usecase: reading at night with the light off.
I lost all my tabs when I had to uninstall Firefox 57 so that the APK install for 56 would work. But it was worth it.
You can configure Amarok2 to look almost like Amarok1 by switching off the context pane, enabling the Slim toolbar (and moving it to the bottom) and disabling album grouping under playlist->playlist layouts.
The top comment of this article is the exact same style but against, not for. It's rated +5 Insightful. At least the mods are consistent.
Hating on a show doesn't make you smarter than loving on it. Fucking hipster geeks.
Geek here. I greatly enjoy Fringe. Is the circlejerk of confirming your respective superiority to the series worth the fact that you are chronically incapable of enjoying a good show?
Even a single really bad software patent is one too many, especially if there's no easy way to overturn it.
Case in point: the GIF debacle, arithmetic coding, "one click".
Now we need a chip that can take any given problem and divide it into one thousand parts so we can feed it into these processors. -Gives me a headache!
Now, look at the release dates for most of those games. It's great that you're getting yesterday's games today, but some of us want to play today's games today.
A year ago? (AC2, CoP, SC2) You know, I'm fine with that.:p There simply haven't been that many interesting games released lately.
Hi, I'm a Linux gamer. When I get bored, I have my choice of the following: Advent Rising, Assassin's Creed(II), Borderlands, Crysis, Deus Ex, Diablo 2, Fable, Fallout 3, Gothic 1/2, GTA San Andreas, KotoR2, Max Payne 2, Oblivion, Oni, Psychonauts, all the STALKER games, Starcraft 2, Torchlight, Warhammer 40k, and last but not least all the Source games.
You were saying?
Moore's law is ok.
I prefer that law, forget the name right now, that says that as computational power increases, windows will require ALL of it to run, greatly increasing demand for CPU and RAM, and lowering the cost of hardware just behind the curve for the rest of us.
Now suppose I move your brain's data into another organic brain, electronic brain, or anything else of the source. Would you continue to "live"? Would YOU continue to live?
Yes, and yes.
To make the point more clear, what if I made an identical copy and booted both at the same time. Do you suddenly develop a psychic link with your other self, experiencing both existences at once, living in two different places?... ridiculous.
If you absolutely cannot dispense with the existence of a soul, just pretend it "finishes" up my life, then circles back around and lives the life of my copy. Since all informational attributes of the human mind can be biologically explained, this time-travelling "soul" does not violate causality (because it carries no information).
Let me put it like this.
If a convention takes mental warping to persist, and does not have [i]serious[/i] force behind it, then it is either going to die out within one generation or otherwise it is already dead and some people just don't want to acknowledge its demise.

First of all, the Linux userbase is really small to begin with. Within that small userbase, you have two relatively large groups:
1. The ideologues, who really believe in RMS's idea that proprietary software is unethical. 2. The cheapskates, who aren't going to pay for software.
Who's left to sell to?
Well. Apparently I don't exist! Good to know.
What tata means, then?
PO-TA-TO
Boil 'em, mash 'em, stick 'em in a stew.

Beautiful. They should have hired you for Look Around You S2.
last.fm streams are unencrypted MP3. last.fm + wireshark + half hour with any socket-capable programming language = no quality loss from re-encoding.
Well, obviously (?) I was kidding, but if you REALLY want to know, I love Fringe.
With the mood in the posts above you, it's really not obvious. But I'm glad you like it.

Better than bombed there.

It's called a "programmer".
Primarily nocturnal, large, semi-aquatic rodents?

You sound like your cliché.
That has to be the first time I've seen the Chewbacca defense actually used.
Chicken poop.
You bought the CD. This implies a right to use the CD. Can you unpack the files manually? Can you create and distribute FOSS installers?
Every time I come across a post of yours, I feel a vague, nick-based kinship. :-)
