Clearly since Apple joined the SIG in a plot to take over Bluetooth and make it standards noncompliant in a plot to overturn those who don't worship Darth Jobs. Slashdot is no place to be rational. We have fanbois to pick on.
I'd add Tiki Wiki to the list of there for ones worth considering. It has way way too many features, but is really nice for getting just about anything going. Typo3 is an amazing product, but I personally find Tiki Wiki to be easier for someone who doesn't want to do any programming and knows just enough web to properly install scripts, database, etc. and do some markup. Typo3 is a great solution if you have the time to learn it and maintain it, but I'd personally say that if all you are trying to do is a favor job for someone you can get Tiki Wiki going and working acceptably for plebs and not have any trouble maintaining it and updating it. Drupal, Joomla, and WordPress all feel very inefficient to me for groupware software. They are easier to get going, but I find them annoying to actually use.
Ting has great customer service, but their price on data is a no go for me these days. They did send me a Ting hoodie and socks that are super comfortable. Easily the best phone customer service I have ever seen.
A little bit. The author as stated in the article is also the author of the sync tool, Syncoid and does consulting. He doesn't really have a horse in the race for the company he's reviewing and his tools are looking to support Btrfs, so he's not necessarily married too ZFS or the solution the company the review is mostly about. Actually pretty nice article to read.
From some of the benchmarks in the article it didn't seem like rsync had any strength over syncoid, other than his tool requiring ZFS on both ends while rsync being more flexible.
More likely make more promises to give out the worst possible internet to people who weren't making them any money in the first place and put them on 7th tier of customer service. They don't care about their customers that pay out the nose, they really don't care about the ones who get off on the cheap that they use as a betting chip when getting areas to cooperate with their bad business.
Only reason I can think to stick with your stock firmware is that you have to (not available for phone, on a CDMA network where you need to update with a proprietary software item that doesn't work on third party firmwares). I have seven unlock options on my GS3 and prefer to use the "None" option.
Agreed. Also, with things like a robot dog there could be other things you could do with them that perhaps a regular service animal shouldn't do in our society.
I'm not really concerned if I ever get to wear one of these types of devices, but if I can't get my dog a set of VR goggles because of App£'$ greed I'm going to be pretty pissed off. I've always imagined a dystopian world where my corgi wages battle in a dystopian virtual reality world a la the lawnmower man. If this doesn't happen I'm never buying another iPhone again until they come out with one with bigger than an 8 megapixel camera.
Kids are more expensive than dogs. You can write off service dogs as medical expense including purchase, training, feeding, and vet bills in the US. A friend had the community give over $5,000 of the $10,000 to buy his daughter's diabetic service dog. People are generally more compassionate at least in this area about helping foot the costs of a service animal than an insulin pump or monitor. Old Yeller tugs at the heart strings more than Johnny 5.
Everyone is part of the maker community. They are saying 1 in 5 developers are working on an IoT project and the definition of developer has become so loose that you are probably already a developer. If you aren't comfortable with calling yourself a developer, call yourself an engineer. Anyone can be an engineer too. If you are unsure if you quality, see if any of the following apply to you.
Do you know how to click a hyperlink?
Can you fill out a web form?
Do you know how to hit a submit form?
Can you check your email?
If you answered yes to these questions you are probably already eligible to be part of the illustrious maker community and may well be eligible to be part of whatever the next Web 3.5 community that comes up. The folks at Microsoft look forward to satisfying your development needs, which will likely involve using your Raspberry Pi 2 as a companion in a drawer to your PS/2 to USB adapter, VGA cables, two button laser mice that may or may not work, and other remnants of IT past.
We helped the French during World War 2 so they wouldn't have to speak German. The French helped us during the American Revolution so we wouldn't have to speak English.
Though the 30% is a pretty big chunk, it's nothing compared to the $11 trillion Hollywood loses on piracy every year. They've done studies and it's pretty clear that piracy costs them all the money ever times infinity.
Yep! And if you title your comment Betteridge's Law of Headlines you can get marked +5 insightful while contributing the same amount (nothing) to the conversation. Karma whoring is a beautiful thing.
Totally agree. They already have DOCSIS 3.1 Gigabit in the works and for the two percent of the population eligible for it I'm sure the higher price, poor customer service, and data caps will be more than enough reason for customers to stick with Comcast, an innovator in the cable industry since 1963.
Slashdot Mirror
Article was stupid. Why anyone would get the source code from the build when they can get the source code for XNU right here for the last 20 years.

Totally came to the thread for this. Was hoping to have someone rant that Postgre was for hipster rails developers, but comments are pretty early.
This guy should really update his website to say Postgre is superb

They weren't holding their employees correctly.

He gave all his money to his family to appear broke on paper.
Leave Sarah Jessica Parker out of this!

Came to this thread looking for the holding it wrong joke. Was not disappointed.
Alternate option would be that people with issues aren't using official Apple® AirPort® Extreme® wireless stations. Seems like a router problem to me.

Could put a link in since the time it takes to google is above the average attention span.

No.
Dice already had their advertisement for uncommon programming languages that were neither uncommon, nor were they programming languages.
