  1. Countless data has been lost on BSODs and auto-update reboots.

  2. Yeah Notepad is really fast to load, but desperately needs an auto-save. How much information have I lost due to crashes and reboots on auto-updates?

  3. Identifying a sound at "pixel level" on An AI System For Editing Music in Videos (mit.edu) · · Score: 3, Insightful

    What does that mean?

  4. First iPhone also couldn't record video on Apple's App Store Celebrates 10th Anniversary (betanews.com) · · Score: 1

    Amazing it still took off without that key feature. Youtube was already huge at that point. Many competitors' phones did record video.

  5. Re:What the fuck are you talking about? on 'Plugspreading' is an Abomination (cnet.com) · · Score: 1

    I was going to ignore the garbage, but then saw over 200 comments and was wondering why so many people read it.

  6. Re:Complete loss of core values on Netflix Is Ending Reviews July 30th · · Score: 1

    Not shit if their stock keeps going up.

  7. Re:Netflix pushed me to Amazon Prime. on Netflix Is Ending Reviews July 30th · · Score: 1

    Their selection must be really bad now to push someone to Amazon Prime videos.

  8. Best Buy had a surprisingly decent selection on Best Buy Stops Selling Music CDs (cbsnews.com) · · Score: 1

    I remember in the 90s they stocked obscure techno CDs among other things.

  9. Re:e-ink is too slow ...to avoid speed cameras on Would You Pay $700, Plus a Monthly Fee, For a Digital License Plate? (arstechnica.com) · · Score: 1

    But if you know where the cameras are...

  10. Re:My experience with Reddit. on Reddit's Case for Anonymity on the Internet (theatlantic.com) · · Score: 1

    It's pretty obvious when they do it - nobody replies to you or even upvotes/downvotes you - the karma on your posts stays at 1.

  11. 20 seconds? Beyond OCD... on US Government Study Concludes: You're Probably Washing Your Hands Wrong (cnn.com) · · Score: 1

    Not even some people with OCD dry their hands for that long.

  12. Wonder why Wyden cares about Tinder... on Tinder Embraces Encryption (theverge.com) · · Score: 1

    hmm

  13. No way this gets overturned on EFF Sues To Invalidate FOSTA, An Unconstitutional Internet Censorship Law (eff.org) · · Score: 1

    By the time it reaches the Supreme Court, there will be 5 reliably conservative justices.

  14. At least Apple Maps isn't jerky/stuttery on Apple is Rebuilding Maps From the Ground Up (techcrunch.com) · · Score: 1

    When I use Google Maps, it is very jerky/stuttery while I'm following its directions. Checked the support forums and many people have this issue, and there's no solution.

  15. Re:Worst argument ever? on Blogger Stabbed To Death After Internet Abuse Seminar (theguardian.com) · · Score: 1
    > So I guess we can safely assume that he wasn't as great at resolving internet arguments as he thought he was?

    It wasn't an internet argument. He was stabbed *in real life*.

  16. Re:seminar on resolving internet issues? on Blogger Stabbed To Death After Internet Abuse Seminar (theguardian.com) · · Score: 1
    > Seems to me that he either didn't practice what he lectured on

    He lectured on resolving disputes *on the internet*. He was stabbed *in real life*.

  17. Re:I must have read this right when it came out. on Blogger Stabbed To Death After Internet Abuse Seminar (theguardian.com) · · Score: 1
    > Not to be snarky here, but my first thought after reading this was "So I guess that's exactly NOT what you should do, huh?" (Sorry to be morbid.)

    No, he was stabbed in real life, not on the internet.

  18. If a manager is wrong on multiple employees, then THEY will probably get fired.

  19. Re:Good thing there is Linux... on Microsoft Quietly Cuts Off Windows 7 Support For Older Intel Computers (computerworld.com) · · Score: 1
    > patch it as much as possible,

    Is it worth patching, given that many of the updates have telemetry...

  20. Re:Windows 7: The Best Windows on Microsoft Quietly Cuts Off Windows 7 Support For Older Intel Computers (computerworld.com) · · Score: 1

    I'm about to downgrade a machine back to Windows 7. How am I supposed to know exactly which updates I can install that don't have any of that telemetry crap?

  21. Stop paying them $300-500K on Layoffs at Watson Health Reveal IBM's Problem with AI (ieee.org) · · Score: 1

    Maybe they'd be profitable if they didn't pay them $300-500K. https://www.nytimes.com/2017/1...

  22. Re:Cost twice as much as In-N-Out on Burger Robot Startup Opens First Restaurant (techcrunch.com) · · Score: 1

    Probably tastes better than In-N-Out though.

  23. Re:Are tips lower as well with tablets? on That Tablet On The Table At Your Favorite Restaurant Is Hurting Your Waiter (buzzfeed.com) · · Score: 1

    Plenty of people seem to think you should tip on the tax, but that doesn't make sense. You tip based on the food that you ordered. Tipping on the tax would be like you're tipping the government. And should workers in states that have no sales tax be penalized because of that?

  24. Re:It's a great feel good type story on Google Engineers Refused To Build Security Tool To Win Military Contracts (bloomberg.com) · · Score: 1

    Any employee who's already been at Google for more than a few years should be a millionaire by now. Fact is they weren't offered enough to get them to work on it.

  25. It says something that they weren't.
