  1. Re:About time! (heh) on EU To Stop Changing the Clocks in October 2019 (dw.com) · · Score: 2

    I will never understand what kind of logic makes a person decide to change the clock, in order to come home early, if you want to come home early then you change the work schedule to 7-4 instead of 8-5, for me this is the sane approach!

  2. You may be thinking on a higher level that I don't understand, but still I must ask, what higher thought and self-actualization are you suggesting?
    Can you explain what kind of culture, society or even humanity are you imagining, if nobody wants to contribute to labor? Are you suggesting that everybody should be meditating in the nature? or you want some people to do the jobs but the elite to sit and reflect like in ancient Greece?

  3. You work that you may keep pace with the earth and the soul of the earth.

    For to be idle is to become a stranger unto the seasons, and to step out of life’s procession, that marches in majesty and proud submission towards the infinite.

    When you work you are a flute through whose heart the whispering of the hours turns to music.

    Which of you would be a reed, dumb and silent, when all else sings together in unison?

    Always you have been told that work is a curse and labour a misfortune.

    But I say to you that when you work you fulfil a part of earth’s furthest dream, assigned to you when that dream was born,

    And in keeping yourself with labour you are in truth loving life,

    And to love life through labor is to be intimate with life’s inmost secret

    --The Prophet, Kahlil Gibran

  4. Re: When is Apple's turn? on EU Regulators Fine Google Record $5 Billion in Android Case (reuters.com) · · Score: 1

    Apple will not be next because all the middle aged politicians have iPhones, and they buy it to their wives and kids, and they see it as the next best thing after sliced bread.

  5. Almost 100% of people in my country use it for all communication. It depends on where you live.

  6. No they don't use the message contents to know if it's forwarded. In WhatsApp there is a forward button on each message, if it's pressed, they add the tag.

  7. >Try asking your parents or grandparents how they'll install a new app, and when they say they'll use the Play Store (I'm assuming they're not saying they'll call you), say "Other than that." Make sure to snap a picture of the deer-in-headlights look you're gonna get. That's because Play Store is pre-installed and it's the default. If a manufacturer pre-installs another store, and calls it "Store of Apps", make the icon similar, and the interface as simple, i promise you that his parents and 99.9 of parents wouldn't notice that this isn't Google's. >Any Android phone that gets so much as RUMORED to not have access to the Play Store is not going to get sold at all. This I agree with this.

  8. Re:President Trump is peeking through the keyhole on Colorado Lawmakers Want To Make It a Felony To Fly a Drone Over a Wildfire (thedrive.com) · · Score: -1, Troll

    Your comment has added value to this post as much as your president has to your country and the world.

  9. In this case, it decreases the wavelength, or increases the frequency.

  10. The only time I felt that I love my country, is when my Windows 10 said that Cortana isn't support in my country or region, and never started on my PC.

  11. Re:And if you're not a fan of binary blobs on Linux 3.6 Released · · Score: 1

    I would really like to know why in Linux the drivers are included with the kernel, and not as separate packages.

  12. Re:Dots? on HTML 5 Canvas Experiment Hints At Things To Come · · Score: 1

    Very interesting to see that while moving I could get around 20fps on Chrome, but around 3fps on Firefox.

  13. Re:I have a feeling.... on Vista Post-SP2 Is the Safest OS On the Planet · · Score: 1

    >>an OS which no one uses (therefore it is the safest).
    You mean like Linux for desktop?

  14. Re:That's it... we're dead on Microchip Mimics a Brain With 200,000 Neurons · · Score: 1

    But humans have always enslaved lesser beings, and from a smarter robot's point of view, we're lesser beings.

  15. Fight it with the same weapon? on Intel CPU Privilege Escalation Exploit · · Score: 3, Interesting

    TFA: >>"No software you can run on your operating system would be able to detect this type of exploit once you are powned"

    Ok this might be a stupid suggestion, but if it's possible for the malware to use this vulnerability to elevate, why wouldn't the "software", say Antivirus, use the same vulnerability to detect it, or remove it?

  16. Re:worst summary ever on Google Returns Chrome To Beta, Touts Speed Boost · · Score: 1

    It's true that the summary is wrong. What does it mean Chrome returns to beta? There is a current stable version which is 1.0, and there is a beta version 2.0, and that's the case in almost all products.

  17. Re:Deep packet inspection used for blocking VoIP on VoIP Legal Status Worldwide? · · Score: 2, Interesting

    The software used for calling from internet to telephone are completely illegal in UAE and some other gulf countries, and they block downloading or connecting to their voip servers, however, it's possible to use voip between two computers, and it's also possible to call someone's phone in emirate from abroad using voip software. In other words, it's allowed as long as it doesn't affect the local mobile carrier.
