  2. Re:Welcome to the Digital Divide. on Most of the Web Really Sucks If You Have a Slow Connection (danluu.com) · · Score: 2

    It's not that it has disappeared. But if I have to choose between making my website shiny and make it small, 9/10 will prioritise the UX for users with high bandwidth (HiDPI icons, etc).

  3. Diversity on Firefox Fail: Layoffs Kill Mozilla's Push Beyond the Browser (cnet.com) · · Score: 4, Insightful

    I use Firefox on my laptop and my phone because diversity is good. If everyone used Chrome, we would have a monopoly again (anyone remembers IE?).

  4. Re:Makes sense - next is IrExit on Apple Is Moving Its Entire International iTunes Business To Ireland (billboard.com) · · Score: 1

    I don't think Ireland will leave the EU in my lifetime. Irish people are very pro-EU in general.

  5. Are foreign devices fully secure? on Obama Finally Ditches BlackBerry, Switches To Samsung Galaxy S4 (arstechnica.com) · · Score: 1, Insightful

    I don't know if I'd trust foreign technology for devices handling such sensitive information.

  6. That's no problem. You can always buy next year the new model.

  7. Re:The Oracle Has Spoken on Bill Gates: AI Is The 'Holy Grail' (mashable.com) · · Score: 2

    Spam has not been a problem for me since 2006. Are you using any spam filters?

  8. Not bad on Mars Is Coming Out Of An Ice Age (reuters.com) · · Score: 1

    > temperatures on Mars may hit a high at noon at the equator in the summer of roughly 70 degrees Fahrenheit (20 degrees Celsius)

    So, the Martian equator is like living in the UK?

  9. I was confused when I have read "more ham for your own company"

  10. Re:Online Ads Killed Micropayments on Mozilla Co-Founder's Ad-blocking Brave Browser Will Pay You Bitcoin To See Ads (pcworld.com) · · Score: 1

    I've never seen an ATM Bitcoin in person.

  11. Ah, it's all in binary now. Great, we really needed that change, not that UTF-8 nonsense.

  12. "Score: 10"?

  13. Re:What a strange name for an IM app... on How One Dev Broke Node and Thousands of Projects In 11 Lines of JavaScript (theregister.co.uk) · · Score: 4, Insightful

    Everything is one letter away of meaning something in some language.

  14. Re:End anonymity for cash on EU Proposes End of Anonymity For Bitcoin and Prepaid Card Users (thestack.com) · · Score: 1, Insightful

    Better yet, make cash go away.

  15. Re:Bitcoin will be an environmental disaster on Bitcoin Inventor Satoshi Nakamoto Nominated For Nobel Prize · · Score: 3, Insightful

    Do you think traditional transactions gets processed for free, or do they also need to be processed?

  16. Not all of them on Should Programmers Be Called Engineers? (theatlantic.com) · · Score: 5, Insightful

    Not all programmes should be called engineers. Only some of them should.

  17. Re: Fantastic! on W3C Sets Up Web Payments Standards Group To Improve Check-Out Security · · Score: 2

    > Oh, and Apple doesn't care either way, so they'll implement once everyone stops bickering...if they feel like it.

    You forgot to mention that they will launch in a world event and sell billions of devices thanks to their innovation.

  18. Good point.

  19. Not 29-51x faster, but _up to_ 29-51x faster (in a specific use case -for which it was developed-)

  20. Taxes? on First Legal Union of Illegal Street Vendors Created In Barcelona · · Score: 5, Insightful

    I, for one, welcome these street vendors. As long as they have all the permissions in order to open a business, respect trademarks, and pay taxes and rental of the space they use.

  21. Re:Not surprising on Porsche Chooses Apple Over Google Because Google Wants Too Much Data · · Score: 4, Interesting

    That is fixed in Android 6. You will now be able to accept or reject individual permissions.

  22. Re:Available on Android before Linux on CodeWeavers To Release CrossOver For Android To Run Windows Programs · · Score: 1

    Only Android x86. Nothing for ARM (yet?).

  23. Re:light sensor on What's New In GNOME 3.18 · · Score: 1

    Yeah good point :)

  24. Re:light sensor on What's New In GNOME 3.18 · · Score: 1

    You'll have a very bright screen from now on.
