If they want to show up "relevant" ads they need to give us a way to fix their stupid mistakes. Just because I happened to search for something once does not mean I'm interested in buying it.
iTunes used to be a shining example of perfect software (on OS X anyway) until they decided to add everything but the kitchen sink.
And no, Macs don't use the same hardware as PCs. Macs use the same hardware as old PCs. See the entry model of the latest Mac mini for a shining example of crap hardware at Apple prices.
Even huge companies like movie studios are now sending people to Facebook. The last trailer I saw even assumed you knew the Facebook logo and only showed "[Facebook logo]/name-of-the-movie" for the URL.
Without Flash, Adobe or Microsoft installed on their machines and without running external 3rd-party software, what do OS X users have to be afraid of?
It's the one platform that's OS-independant, at least in theory.
It gives me hope that all four major browsers are in this together but at the same time it's going to give me nightmares about what the advertising companies are going to do with it.
I hope nobody messes up the sandboxing of this whole thing.
The question is, now that Microsoft is allowing cross-platform games, will Square Enix make FF XIV for the Xbox One? That would make their game available on three* platforms.
* I don't count the PS3 as being another platform, just an older generation. And the Mac version isn't really a Mac version since it's an emulated port that sucks.
This only raises another question: why is the month before the date in spoken English? It still doesn't make any sense. Just because you've done something wrong for centuries doesn't make it right by default.
Their new demonstration is the functional equivalent of a team of six humans moving a weight equivalent to that of an Eiffel Tower and three Statues of Liberty," said David Christensen
What's this? An Eiffel Tower and Statues of Liberty for ants?

Breadcrumbs make for lousy trail markers so you're putting pebbles on trial? What's wrong with you?
I'm a troll for bashing the company who made the computer I choose to use every day?

It's the age-old PC vs Mac debate, i.e. better hardware vs better software.
The PC has superior hardware at a higher cost and... eh... oh wait.
Never mind.

FairPlay is still used on movies, TV shows and music videos, is it not?
And in the end, it's always the users that get screwed.
That's why you can only trust male, cross-dressing revolutionaries and insurgents. They don't even want to be the man in the first place.

The next version of systemd will have a built-in Facebook login. The version after that will integrate Facebook itself.
I thought Javascript only had the ability to open a file via a prompt asking the user to select which file to read.
Who knows, maybe it's Javascript + Flash or Javascript + Java or some other insane mix.
Actually the ISO 8601 date format is YYYY-MM-DD, not YYYY/MM/DD.
The only way to protect a computer against trojans is to educate the users of those computers.
If Java was really OS-independant, Minecraft would be able to run on all operating systems. But it's Windows-only, so there you go.

I'd be okay with read-only things, but I'll never allow connected devices to control things in my home.
If you're using something as power-hungry as a game console for Netflix, you're doing it wrong.

And until they take Dogecoin at an exchange rate of 1:1 against Bitcoin, too!

Because they're not important for most Raspberry Pi uses.
The important specifications are:
- direct connection via USB
- low power (5VDC @ 0.55A = 2.75 watts)
What's strange is their compatibility list:
- Raspberry Pi Model B+, 2 Model B, 3
So it's not compatible with the Raspberry Pi Zero?
