Yeah it's painful, especially because all white is sooo great for power usage on mobiles.:(
I don't know a single mobile website that's not vastly improved by forcing mobile browser to use desktop version.
That's a relief then. I can switch back to Samsung when I'm done with my Pixel 2. It was a terrible mistake to switch to a phone without the jack. Bluetooth is just crap, gets interference and it simply doesn't sound as good. I've had no end of problems getting speakers and headphones to pair.
Not having a common feature is not a sign of good engineering, if you can't achieve what others can, it's a failing, not innovation.
The original opened the whole chassis forwards and had no reverse gear. Presumably all the original drivers starved to death after driving into their garage.
It's actually cheaper for me and the wife to take an Uber into town than the tram then a bus. If they want to encourage use of public transport on our medieval horse and cart width streets, stop ripping people off.
Do you have a set? If so does it have a noticeable latency? I've found through bluetooth audio in the past that it's delayed slightly and makes films look dubbed, or do Airpods have a fix for that?
Arguably the tiniest of delays in one of the two signals could change the sound of carefully engineered music. I wonder if two independent audio sources like the earphones with a few milliseconds delay on one of the two stereo channels would create audio phasing in your brain.;)
Even if the magically fixed bluetooth latency lots of new problems will certainly arise. Surely if everyone started using bluetooth it would cause interference? My wireless headphones already stutter and fail whenever a Taxi drives past.
I realise google probably wish for an invisible UI and replace mobile with a pair of very losable, wireless earphones controlled with just your voice. Great for some, but for me and the wife, our Scottish accents rendered a recent purchase of Amazon Alexa, absolutely fucking worthless.
You don't even need an app if you sign in on your device and chrome.
Just go to

You can make your phone ring for 5 mins even if it's on silent. Find it. Wipe it etc.
Agreed actually. Kolorpaint was a great substitute. Far better than Pinta for what I did, however I couldn't get it working after updating to Ubuntu 16.00:(
Yup I got burned when a small close [x] button was placed right next to a massive 'spam invites/connection requests to everyone you have sent an email to ever without any confirmation' button. I really did want to connect again to my stalking psycho ex and give her the idea I wanted to get back in touch. Fuck you LinkedIn. Never again!
Genuine research doesn't make headlines. Just the pipe-dream stuff that shows a minor correlation in one study that aligns with wishful thinking. Thus we get lots of headlines indicating wine, chocolate, pizza and are all good for you..... according to science.
Unless you go around reading scientific journals, I'll bet science journalism is the only exposure to academic research you actually get exposure to. Journalists don't report scientifically or arguably even much of what's true; They report what sells. When was the last time you saw a paper headline reporting a negative correlation on something? It's little wonder people don't trust experts. It's likely they have almost never actually heard from one.
The whole point of terrorism is that they can't go to war or they will lose, so they attack us in hopes that we will make more restrictive laws and this lady is taking the bait.
It's seems to be people going it alone now rather than carefully orchestrated strikes. With that in mind these people are just
brainwashed by 'alternative' facts. It's not a physical conflict any more except for acts of violence that are almost a symptom rather than the end game. We are in a war of information and the mass murderers are enticed by a sparkling golden ticket, the fame offered by our own profiteering media outlets who erupt into a ratings frenzy at the scent of radicalised blood spilling.
When neither side actually employs much of the truth, exposing lies always makes it really easy for someone in your own echo-chamber to swallow any horse-shit you feed them immediately after.
Yes, it is true that people that use their system's default browser tend to be dumb. These people are statistically poorly performing employees, and some companies avoid hiring them. So even if you use MSIE or Edge as your browser, you should use something else when submitting your resume.
Fascinating. Sounds exactly like the kind of positive reinforcement I would love to believe.
"A study of 20,000 workers showed that more honest people tend to perform better and stay at the job longer. For some reason, however, they make less effective salespeople."
So where is the study? Who did it? Was it the author with ants?
I hate these things, they never work as stated. All it means is they can save money by buffering ahead even less. Days past if you had a poor connection you could load a video and pause it and it would buffer through. Now if you pause it buffers what it seems to think is all you actually need. It never is.
You are presuming the unlikely case that her claims are accurate just because she made them. That is foolish.
Nope, let me say again that on individual cases such as this, I have no input. I am talking about the Culture Of 'Pervasive Harassment' being proudly displayed in the comments on this thread.
Apologies but my comment was badly phrased.
What I meant was evidence on individual cases, I had no input but on the overall topic of a Culture Of 'Pervasive Harassment', the sheer number of awful comments (compared to other stories here) seems to strongly indicate there is one.
Please describe this "power imbalance" when a woman can simply say "sexual harassment" with little to no evidence and immediately the "suspect" can lose *his* job?
Blog posts are not evidence. If you are aware of any actual evidence point it out.
Evidence on individual cases? I don't know, but it's really easy to believe when you just scroll up and read the AC comments here, denying it all with spite and bile, ironically undermining their own arguments. It would be funny if only the hate filled bilge wasn't so sad.
French revolution, which the article surprisingly glosses over, had a number of factors, one of which was inequality. I suspect that's the case in all these examples.

I call bs on anything that uses words like 'The only thing....' This isn't a TV show, so simplification becomes an exercise in cherry picking to prove your point.
I'd argue that RT is about as bad as the others but generally uses higher register language than the far right press. A big mistake may be to read all believing the truth lies somewhere in the aggregate, when frequently they are all just not true.

Yeah why bother with distributed shared effort when you can reinvent the wheel in house and keep your unscrutanised code all to yourself?

Wonder if that's to protect their phones from being knocked off the market via patent disputes.

I don't use these new fangled things like Microsoft Paint. Still happy with Deluxe Paint

The burden of proof rests with the proposal, so you can reject out of hand the premise, "We don't know, therefore aliens."

there is a shitton of evidence

And yes, I am aware of the irony of citing a news source.
