its because of firefox's refusal to fix bugs and instead adding a crapload of new features (that work too slow to actually matter) that has hurt me a lot. i have to freaking use ie9! and ff 3.6 when i get fed up of ie. i think someone should buy up mozilla and burn up their hq, making the employees watch as all their life work is destroyed. only then will justice be served.
its you who needs to try 3.6 again. feel the responsiveness! and i've not encountered a non benchmark website that does not behave well on 3.6. upgrade to 3.6 and suddenly your laptop runs cooler, runs longer and ff responds consistently. no features are missing, almost all extensions work. there is no downsides, only upsides.
my problem with ff is that my decent laptop grinds to a fucking halt and the battery lasts only an hour when i run ff. otherwise its a decent browser. but then so is ie9, and it doesn't suck up all the juice of my lappy.
When I'm driving, talking to my device is the *only* meaningful way to communicate with it.
so you would rather kill a few innocents than stop your car and answer your call?? seriously, talking to anything but a person who is in the car with you is fucking dangerous. it distracts your mind and slows down your reactions to the level of a drunk person.
this. i am NEVER going to talk to an electronic device. i'm only going to talk to people, who cn actually understand what i mean and give me a reply that's better than a google search.
i dont see any advantage of efi over bios. my bios works, i don't have to fiddle with it and it is quite fast (~5 seconds). so what's all the fuss about?
another gripe i've got with unity is that the win button does nothing! on win7 its really fast to press the win button and then just type the name of any program, song, video, anything. but in unity i have to move my mouse and click, then i have to move my hands to the keyboard and type.
after being in possession of various nokia phones for 7-8 years, i don't know how good or bad their customer service is!! becuase i've never had a single hardware problem with any of nokia's devices, not even a broken button or anything.
Because the people that are going to get G+ going are the ones that refused to get a FB account...
wait, wait right there. you do realize there's not many such people in the world right? fb has 800 million active accounts. g+ will be an epic failure if it targets only those who do not have an fb profile.

i like the new ui better than that of 3.6, but i still use it. because it does not periodically freeze up. nor does it constantly suck 10% of my cpu.

no, this is incorrect.

yeah, that was stupid.

too bad all nuclear power innovations are now moot, since nobody wants 'em.
oh it works when you press some other key with it. but just pressing it does nothing.

libre office is fucking slow. and it can't do half the things word can. it regularly fucks up your files and did i mention it was slow?
unity is utter crap, and so is gnome shell. the sooner we accept it, the better for linux.

april fool!
you forgot the 1 child per family china, and the majority of those families are having males. More Males mean less kids.
In 40-50 years china's population will start to contract massively.
compare with the Western world which is having less kids later in their lives. means that the separation between generations is increasing.
now how is that even possible??

this. i'm surprised /.ers are unable to understand this.
g+ is exactly like fb, only a little worse, and lonely. so why should anyone switch?
There were languages before (and after) C.
but they were shit before c, and those languages that were after c and were any good were heavily influenced by c.
There were operating systems before (and after) Unix.
but they were shit.
yeah, as i see it, c was the language that really started this whole computer thing going.
what's funny is that microsoft actually does kinda fix bugs in popular third party programs when developing a new os.
well said.
facebook always reports only active users. the latest figure is 750 million.
email!=social network
allowing only a bunch of strangers to use a social network is probably the dumbest move google ever made.
