Twitter trolls, who spew forth such abuse that several high-profile twitter users cancelled their accounts
And when those Twitter users go outside and appreciate the world they live in. They will be thankful to the troll for removing them from a pointless addiction.
You lost interest in this project because the summary of the slashdot post decribed them as "hackers"?
Pretty much.
Slashdot Editors: "mm, what to call people who design and manufacture SoC chips. Nope, cant think of anything, lets just call them hackers because we can use it in anything, whilst looking cool!"
is the brainchild of a team of hardware and software hackers from the University of Cambridge
All credit to this news article, and, my interest in this project just vanished.
Seriously need to be careful how you use the word "hackers". For some of us it means the ability to "steal/control in the use of electronic methods and devices". And the unlucky new generation, well, it means how to make a button on your raspberry Pi.
Are you the same guy that labels porn "amature". It's "amateur". "Amature" doesn't even exist, except if you interpret the "a-" prefix as "not", which then the word would mean "not mature".
Not i'am just the guy who trusted Google Spell Checker a little too much.
Not sure what porns got to do with incorrect spelling, but why not.
But lets be honest, the influx of Java/Ruby/Python and "easy" amature programming are making our computers slower than they were 5 years ago. - Slower language before we even start. - Single thread - No optimizations. Dreadful performance - Relying on language safety measures, instead of "good logic". Buggy as hell. - Relying on 50+ library's, just to use 1 function in each.
If only they would learn C++. Our processors probably wouldn't need to be upgraded for another 5 years. We can but dream, just a shame we live in this "fast food alpha" development world.
- Guy has bad eyesight - Wants them fixed to standard 20/20, using laser surgery. This is news?
This story would be more interesting if he corrected his eyes to "short sighted", this would improve the experience. He'd then be able to see alot more detail at close range, using his Oculus rift.
I believe that PrivateCore's technology and expertise will help support Facebook's mission to help make the world more open and connected, in a secure and trusted way," Sullivan said.
Pointless, unless you sell user information to third party company's that only this service. Or is that the end goal here, make third party company's pay £££ to use PrivateCore?
Regardless, once that data is in the hands of "Marketing Company X", kind of defeats the security it had in the 1st place.
Oh and, noone is truly "connected" on facebook. Its just a phase in our current generation to feel "important", which Facebook is profiting from.
If you let students pick the modules that they want, then you may as well just say 'here's a library, go and learn some stuff' and you'll get more or less the same results.
FLTK / SFML / BASS / IrrLitch Thats the library's i choose from.
Kids today, pick Python / Ruby / Flash. Use one thread, riddeled with bad code, and, wonder why their program runs like shit on a i7 cpu. Strange that.....
Next year in NFL: - Start is removed. The game starts when a player can run through 20 squares of pointlessness to find the same option. - Ball is replaced with a square cube. Showing adverts from Microsoft - NFL fans are now forced to upgrade their TV's to support StupidX 12.0. They cant watch it otherwise.
Oh i so could go on for a long time, but, dinners ready, and, i really couldnt give a shit about either company:)
'Xenon Based Media Center'.. something something... It does not have to make sense. Just shorten it back to XBMC. There. No more trademark violation.
We don't even know what the X in xbox stands for either. No one cares.
^^ This. The new name has nothing to do with XBMC or what it stands for. They may of well as called it Cloud, oh hail the buzz word that means fuck all and everything thats networked, at the same time.
Kodi seems like a bit of a joke when the char Name[0] went +1;
I've always been somewhat wary about these one-man custom distros or images. Do they contain malware? Probably not. But do they contain schoolboy mistakes which cause breakage or security problems? I think it's possible.
Breakage: No. Everything works. I've been running this setup for over 2 years. I finally decided to share my installation with a guide. Not everyone is out to get you and your "security".
Schoolboy mistakes: Everyone makes mistakes. Even you. By all means, find a issue and i'll gladly fix it in my free time.
Security Problems: If you have "security concerns", you shouldnt be using any distro, unless you make it to your own "security" requirements. These debian images are aimed at home users, who just want a fast Pi doing their daily stuff.
Logic comes 1st with programming, nothing else. Math or "Maths" is really a secondary skill which allows you to expand on your logic. You can essentially program with minimal knowledge of maths whilst simply using more if/else statements and logic to make up for it.
I had a GCSE D in maths (lower than average), but i've always been very logical. I learnt the required maths by using my logic to test and understand what i needed, not the other way round.
Programming without logic is nothing, programming without maths is something google can help you with very easily, or you will pick up yourself using logic.
- The news Story = " removed all restrictions on what usernames people are allowed to use" - So i clicked "Edit your name:" - I enter "4D", in the name field
Result = "Please fill in the name fields."
Garbage news for a garbage product. Did any of the devs even think to "test it"?
My last EA game was Battlefield 2142. This was just before the console market of idiots rolled in and changed games for the worse (mass buying DLC/2 hour gameplay titles). The game was buggy, poor phsyx movement with major inconsistencies. Your typical "lazy production game" for that era. But if you compare it to games out now, you could even class it as "perfect". Amazing how quality reduces over time when the money keeps flooding in.
But yes, good to know that Ben Kuchera agrees with me, shame hes 8 years late.

Will I need to update my TV to 4K to play it? Enough said.
Google Street View cars are doing a great job so far:

It's more like your knowledge of English grammar, or lack thereof.
I take it your American and cannot comprehend correct English. Let alone your inability to log in and stop yourself trolling.
Just like Google+
Just like Anonymous Coward's.

Nothing new. The guy is still making crap software, for pointless projects.

That "signed char" was a bad coding choice back in the day.

Couldn't they have just redefined the acronym?

Your welcome.
Do the other "thing" Raspberry Pis are semi "good" for (minus a slow XBMC system).
Turn your raspberry Pi into a dedicated BitTorrent power house!

Excellent, exactly what the Pi 2.0 should be. Good find.

Sack the incompetent staff member who sent the email, instead of "cheating" your way out of it?
Ah, its Goldman Sachs. Carry on cheating the system.

Not really any upgrade from a Key if i'am honest.
