I occasionally listen to 95.7 (now "the jet" formerly "KJR") here in Seattle, but not as often since they (ClearChannel) twice attempted to rebrand it and somewhat altered its format (for one thing they put in a damned morning show, when they used to brag about playing only music in the morning because "who talks along with the radio?")
Now it is pretty much my USB stick in the car and Pandora at home.
Reading books on an LCD device if fucking stupid anyway. Use e-ink, it is better for almost all books except certain technical ones (which mostly aren't that great as bedtime reading anyway).
The independent reviewers may not be that independent. It is basically the same group that reviewed it back in 2013, and they produced a paper that was promptly ripped apart. I also seem to recall at least one of them is a friend of the inventor...
Dunno about more recent Ubuntu versions, but historically it has not handled version upgrades as well as Debian. Not sure why, but there is it.
That said, I agree with 1, 2, 5... 3, I would be amazed to see on Stable. I have certainly seen apt crash a few times on sid/experimental, but you would hardly use that for servers.
And he is a huge geek, with tattoos of early arcade video games, and at least a fair bit of electronics and general maker know how. Most of his mouse heads have fans for ventilation and cameras and screens (cause the angles are wrong for easily looking down at the board), and he designed and built the first ones. I think he still designs them (if they change), but he has a company actually make them now if I recall... And hooking up all those racks of equipment goes beyond just plug port A into port B. I feel like I saw something that indicated that he has some programming ability too. If he was older he would probably be/have been a/.er
>Paint over init and cron, pam and login. Put all of that into PID1 along with dbus
Init is in PID 1 with systemd, and it is pretty natural for an init system that can already trigger on various events to also support triggering on absolute and relative times. As for dbus, PID 1 does expose a private dbus interface, but it is NOT the system dbus daemon. Logind, journald, PAM, the dbus daemon - those are NOT in PID 1
That line just shows you are completely ignorant or a troll, or both.
It is fine to have some issues with systemd, I do myself, despite being overall in favor of it, but at least have them be real issues...
I would say that Nimrod is very well know as a term for idiot. I think most everyone I know would think of "idiot" before they thought of "hunter". I don't think I learned the meaning "hunter" until I was in my 20's. That is in the US of course, might be different elsewhere, perhaps places where Loony Tunes was less well known (Bugs Bunny calling Elmer Fudd a "poor little Nimrod" is where it first picked up the "idiot" connotation). In any case it was widely understood when I was in elementary and high school (80's and 90's)
No, Nintendo shouldn't use flash on their website either. And if Panasonic doesn't want people to use one of the more common JS libraries around, they probably shouldn't allow JS at all.
A lot of the sslstrip stuff is based off of people not noticing the page has changed to insecure, modern browsers try to address that by making it more visible than it was in the pre-FF3 era, e.g.: https://support.mozilla.org/en...
No, G+ is fine. Better than FB, in fact. I don't trust Google really, anymore than I trust Facebook, and its network effect is much smaller. But those are different matters.
No, it isn't. I want a Linux phone, not a Firefox phone. Jolla is much better in the OS department, kinda sorta get there with the KB for the "other half", but fail with the screen.

But maybe it'll remove the obstructionist anti-systemd whiners for a while, so Debian can get on with things that matter.
>PulseAudio was great when ALSA didn't exist,
ALSA not only existed, but was the standard in Linux for years before PA (then PolypAudio) was created.
ALSA - 1998
ALSA as default - 2003 (2.6.0)
PA 0.9 - 2006
PA default in Ubuntu - 2008

how about "-1 whoosh"?
Doesn't matter, wireless charging is worthless anyway.
What a stupid idea.
How far away are dictionary and thesaurus websites?
Also Strunk and White is a hack job
They put EME in some time ago.
Some do...

I think you mean "dist-upgrade". But even then you are doing something amazingly wrong.

Reddit, much like digg, sucked from the get-go, and has never stopped sucking. I'd sooner get my news from 4chan.
Not sure if joking...

Tacoma? Smaug can have it!

Unless your nipples enjoy learning, I guess.
Best UI? Isn't it like other smartphone OSs, lacking close buttons? That is one of many great things about Maemo/Matchbox/Hildon
No, it isn't. I want a Linux phone, not a Firefox phone. Jolla is much better in the OS department, kinda sorta get there with the KB for the "other half", but fail with the screen.
