It's amazing how I can see someone that I connected with on Facebook in real life and have a vague notion of what they are up to. It makes me feel connected.
For the last time, she dumped you in high school. You're no longer "connected".
How about this one, hire an Indian firm to run a government level oracle database without actually testing it or including load-balancing and you're gonna have a bad time.
Blame your horrendous failure on user volume and then call it glitches and you're gonna have a bad time.
List of known issues in order of appearance:
01. security questions not loading. 02. security answers failing validation. 03. email validation tokens timing out instantly. 04. correct passwords failing 05. password reset emails not providing clickable link for reset 06. password reset link loads page which doesn't find the profile it just emailed to. 07. EIDM server crashing and throwing system down errors. 08. oracle server errors. 09. network gateway timeout errors. 10. oracle account manager loading towards public
All of this excluding the actual waiting pages for a website. This is either gross incompetence or sabotage.
Pretend to be a robot and have your kid give you instructions on how to make a PB&J sandwich. When they skip a step in the algorithm, you simply respond, "HOW?"
This is probably the easiest lesson in programming and a great place to start because it forces you to think in pseudocode.
Honestly, ubuntu is only important to current users. I keep an install on my usb stick for emergencies, but I don't really use it that much. I've been a Linux administrator for a decade and I still use windows at home. Android has surpassed ubuntu in every way for usability and utility. I always want to switch, but Steam keeps me using windows. Perhaps SteamOS will change that.
As for mobile, since there hasn't been much work done on ubuntu touch, now called ubuntu for phones, I don't think canonical is keeping up.
ubuntu for phones is starting to feel like symbian
How about the fist bump to exchange data on smart watches?
Since all vendors are veering towards standardized PC hardware that you would find in the PS4 and XBOX ONE, you're going to eventually see vendors make their controllers and peripherals with a standard like USB or the hinted at wireless USB. They will work on PC, XB1 and PS4. They will come to see that it's going to be prestigious to sell the most controllers. And others will join in the market like Mad Catz and Logitech. Apple will still be proprietary on their home entertainment hub. Android will become cross-platform for games on SteamOS. There might be an android application to stream games from your PC running steam. Game servers will become platform agnostic. Eventually publishers will want to claim all their players can compete with those on another platform. And finally, buying a rockstar game on XB1 or PS4 will grant you a Steam key as publishers finally realize you don't want to buy the white album again.

I've had those problems with ubuntu 12.10
And getting the nvidia driver installed and working takes a small miracle.
Maybe Raging Ringtail might be better.
Not really.
They're built by lowest bidders Serco and QSS Inc. Neither an American company.
If they had decided to hire Americans to do this job, they would have had a very large pool of qualified and skilled workers from which to choose.
They already have. I don't remember reading anything about SteamOS being completely opensource.
They removed basic customizable anaglyph support from both after I detailed how you could hack 3D support into Left 4 Dead and other games.
And I'm still an Nvidia fanboy.
I just successfully logged in. to a blank page.
definitely not a DDOS. LOIC is going to cause the kinds of errors I've seen.

no, it's a big high five to the clearly superior hardware vendors.
Mr. Fusion is still a few years off.
agreed.
Start with the PB&J robot.

I don't know that they're jealous.
Just make it a setting. But not the default.

I could be wrong.
well in reality, I invented the left hand-only gaming keyboard. in 1999. If only I'd patented it.
Though my original idea still hasn't been brought to market, companies like nostromo, logitech, and razer have come pretty close.
I've been playing games for 31 years.
other ideas I've gotten wrong:
The advent of home linux servers for media
that we'd still being using disc for distribution in 2013.
I predicted the shift to Linux gaming six years ago
http://gamerslastwill.com/2007/12/12/the-next-big-thing/
Of course, at that time, I didn't get the digital distribution right because we had such limited bandwidth with little prospect for upgrades.
toot toot.
not a big fan of comedy?
rather wrong?
It's like saying an Earth Rover failed to turn up any bauxite in it's drilling samples.
While we have an enormous amount of methane in our atmosphere, we also have a teeming biosphere. The methane might be frozen in the ground.
But they're acting like diatomaceous earth doesn't exist.
I don't know what X is supposed to be, but he spelled boycott wrong.
SELinux came at a price. Now go find it.
Typical AAA game: $60, 8 hours entertainment - $7.50 per hour

or perhaps sodium fluoride is carcinogenic.
This is 2013. I haven't used pandora in years.
itunes radio is only going to serve the apple crowd.
There's many more users than the apple crowd.
So, pancakes on a rabbit.
I think the term they're looking for is botnet.
It may be legal software on machines they own, but it's still a botnet.
