Not only is it not a supported upgrade (you would have to do a clean install, or upgrade via an intermediate step of Win 7 first) it's also not a free upgrade for Vista owners.
And yet, fast food workers are earning $15/hr or more in most other first world countries across the globe for a decade and their economies haven't imploded...
Yup. Now I get it. You meant Torvalds had to find out the hard way wasting his time using a closed source solution for the kernel source in the first place.
Git is free. You're mixing up Torvalds (who wrote git and the linux kernel) and Larry McVoy who wrote BitKeeper. And yes, it is too late for BitKeeper.
I don't get it. What's wrong with X-plore? It's the midnight commander or norton commander style file manager for android and I've been using for some 5 years. It's amazing.
No bloat or other shit.
Never even heard of ES File Explorer before, and I guess I haven't been missing anything...
I have Pro so I used the group policy to let me choose whether I want to install updates and when to install them.
But the huge fullscreen nag screen that takes over your entire windows session and cannot be dismissed still pops up.
There *has* to be a way to disable this, or you're going to start seeing these nag screens appearing on more news/weather broadcasts/internet streams/airport displays/etc worldwide as windows 10 continues to roll out.
> This means that during hot days temperatures south of the Mediterranean will reach around 46 degrees Celsius (approximately 114 degrees Fahrenheit) by mid-century.
We already get temperatures hotter than that (47 C) in Adelaide, South Australia.
Already get 12 to 30 second unskippable ads on the youtube app on android. It's infuriating. 5 or 6 seconds is ok but up to half a minute? Get fucked.
I cancel and try to play the vid again a few times, and if it still won't let me watch it without being forced to see this 30 second unskippable ad I just skip the video completely and don't bother.
I started using viber years ago, but switched to fb messenger and whatsapp over time.
I think a lot of americans haven't heard of these because they are hugely popular overseas which let you text and make phone calls internationally over wifi/data.
Texting/calling in the US within the US (and sometimes Canada and Mexico too) is essentially free on plans so you have no motivation to use apps like Viber or WhatsApp but that is not the case for the rest of the world. Especially within places like europe.
I'm not even sure what the solution is anymore now that I lived here for a while and see it every day first hand.
I've lived in large Australian and New Zealand cities, but the homeless epidemic here is just on a level you couldn't believe or imagine without being here and seeing it for yourself.
Prices and rents won't ever go down again imo, and the homeless refuse to leave and only increase in number every ear... shit will get to a real breaking point before long.
That was the single most frustrating and annoying thing in the history of everything on the internet. It was worse than obnoxious ads even. The text you reading simply vanishing before your eyes and refreshing and landing in a difference spot every time and then having to find where you were at was just... urgh!!
But if you've never been anywhere in your life, and your little bubble around you in which you exist is all you know, then sure, the status quo is great.
A debit card is NOT currency. Nor is it universally accepted. And it is tied to a single currency.
I've lived and worked in multiple countries, have bank accounts in multiple countries, and have savings and investments in multiple currencies.
When travelling currency conversion fees are annoying. Even when using a debit card or credit card.
It's all a huge pain in the ass. A real pain in the ass. I can't wait for a single universal internet currency you can use everywhere and we can rid of bank fees, foreign exchange transaction fees, and other bullcrap. It's getting better but very far from ideal.

How did you upgrade Vista to Win 10?
Not only is it not a supported upgrade (you would have to do a clean install, or upgrade via an intermediate step of Win 7 first) it's also not a free upgrade for Vista owners.
And the answer is Nexus 6P.
It has everything you just said.
The stock android experience is gorgeous.
And yet, fast food workers are earning $15/hr or more in most other first world countries across the globe for a decade and their economies haven't imploded...
Hence why you tell other brands and carriers to fuck off.
You either use an iPhone (I personally don't) or use a Nexus.
I've been a Samsung fanboy for 5+ years now (had multiple Galaxy Note's and S devices) but now use a Nexus 6P and I love it.
Fuck samsung. Fuck carriers.
I don't know why Google doesn't just force updates like Apple does.
Go away FBI shill.
I just want to know if they are going to call it Android Nutella or what?
Mmmm Nutella.....
Yup. Now I get it. You meant Torvalds had to find out the hard way wasting his time using a closed source solution for the kernel source in the first place.
wut.

Fuck, imagine getting it on an ATM.

It's why I left.
Fuck that place and fuck that heat.

I'm an aussie that lives/works in the US.
I get like 4% interest in my NZ bank account, so..... whatever GS?
I don't know, but having been on the internet since the early 90s I fully agree with you. :(
idk why you haven't.

Except your cellphone is voip too.
And the interconnects between carriers, exchanges, cell towers, and to other countries, IS ALSO ALL VOIP.
In more and more cases, carriers send voice using voip over the public internet now.
What's wrong?
Have a look at:

How do you feel about it now?
The situation in SF really is, pretty bad.
I'm not even sure what the solution is anymore now that I lived here for a while and see it every day first hand.

Not sure I want to be here when that happens.
What.
The US govt has been finger printing all visitors for forever now.
So how is Japan doing that any different?
Yes, the FB app is terrible. That's why I don't install it. (I don't even use FB, fuck that garbage.) But the messenger app is separate and brilliant.
OMG THANK YOU FOR REMOVING AUTO REFRESH.

I left Australia more than 6 years ago... best decision I ever made, never going back.
Keep running the country into the ground, you're doing a great job.
But if you've never been anywhere in your life, and your little bubble around you in which you exist is all you know, then sure, the status quo is great.
No, no we don't.

We commonly get stuff in Australia or New Zealand first when companies try to test new things in western markets to see what the response is like.
Not just talking about apps, restaurants and other companies do it often.
idk why they mentioned it in the summary though *shrug*.
