  1. I used to like and recommend Evernote to others on Evernote Slashes 15 Percent of Its Workforce (techcrunch.com) · · Score: 1

    But unfortunately, over the years, Evernote has been trying their damnest to drive me away to competing services by constantly introducing features that I never asked for and that are on by default and/or cannot be hidden away in the UI. At the point where the UI became like 3 times as complex as it used to be when I started using Evernote, I just gave up and moved on.

    God forbid software becomes something more than 1-2% of the population can use.

    140$ is not "hundreds".

    Itâ(TM)s actually worth noting that for a consumer company itâ(TM)s size, Apple is as far from a âdo it allâ as it gets. To keep their focus they ruthlessly cut product lines where they think they canâ(TM)t add enough value to make it worthwhile, even though that single product, if born and grown outside Apple, couldâ(TM)ve been a reasonably succesfull company of itâ(TM)s own.

    Never ceases to amaze me how clueless people on /. are nowadays. No, bluetooth signal itself doesn't compress the audio, codecs do and nowadays, there are lossless codecs. Educate yourself on aptX-HD before embarrasing yourself any further.

  6. Re: Personally on OnePlus 6T Trades the Headphone Jack For Better Battery Life (techradar.com) · · Score: -1

    Bullshit. Analog audio jack is physically incapable of doing lossless audio, while Bluetooth has been capable of it for quite some time now.

    Governments havenâ(TM)t been significant gatekeepers on the flow of information in most western countries for decades, if not centuries. So if free speech legislation only applies to governments and not at all to massive private entities that today hold significantly more weight in that area, then the legislation is as good as useless and needs to be reformed.

  8. Re: And what if I need to change my number abroad? on Apple Moves the iPhone Away From Physical SIMs (arstechnica.com) · · Score: 1

    The one blatantly spreading FUD is you. You are describing a locked US handset. Unlocked means exactly that, you take any SIM in and out at will and it just works. Disclaimer: I work for a Nordic provider.

  9. Re: Keep in mind on Is Chrome OS Threatening Windows? (arstechnica.com) · · Score: 1

    Chromebook to me looks like an option for somebody who is balking at paying the price of iPad Pro + Smart Keyboard. But is there anything a Chromebook is objectively better at besides price? And I mean for the average user (so donâ(TM)t start going on about running Linux on it).

  10. Keep in mind on Is Chrome OS Threatening Windows? (arstechnica.com) · · Score: 4, Informative

    This is mostly a US phenomena. Outside of US, most education institutions donâ(TM)t even know what a Chromebook is. In my country, I am yet to see my first Chromebook outside of ads, in an actual real environment.

  11. Re: 8K content? on Samsung and LG Unveil 8K TVs (cnet.com) · · Score: 1

    Clearly you need to have your eyes checked, because me and most or my friends can easily tell the difference on a 55â screen 3 meters away.

  12. Are you retarded? on What Dropbox Dropping Linux Support Says (techrepublic.com) · · Score: 5, Interesting

    Why would an image editing program give 2 shits about: ext4, btrfs, GNOME, Mate, KDE and systemd?

  14. LOL on How Criminals Recruit Telecom Employees To Help Them Hijack SIM Cards (vice.com) · · Score: 4, Interesting

    I work for a major Nordic telco. The controls are so strict youâ(TM)d need to be a total moron to agree to this unless you were offered enough money to leave the country while being set for life.

  15. Trying to ask iPad Pro level prices for hardware thatâ(TM)s actually slower is going to go well

  16. Wrong. If you want to sell a phone and have your marketing use the word Android, it comes with the Play Store.

    In quite a twist of irony, western countries should consider adopting legislation that was recently approved in Russia: criminal liability for both companies and itâ(TM)s owners for complying with sanctions set by âforeignâ entities.

    so the judge is a mind reader that can tell the guy does remember ?

    You don't have to be a mind reader to evaluate the likelyhood of something being true or false. Courts do this every single day.

  20. "I forgot" doesn't fly on Judge Jails Defendent For Failing To Unlock Phones (fox13news.com) · · Score: 1

    A lot of people seem to be under this misguided impression that "I forgot" is some sort of automatic exit from the situation that lets them off the hook. Contrary to what a lot of people seem to believe, courts can and do evaluate whether a given statement is a "believable" one.

  21. Re: iPad is missing a few features... on Adobe To Launch Photoshop for iPad in Strategy Shift (bloomberg.com) · · Score: 1

    That sounds backwards: most artists canâ(TM)t imagine drawing/painting WITH a mouse. The iPad Pro has essentially killed all sub-1000â Wacom tablets for professional use.

  22. âthey have the right toâ ... citation needeed, because apparently not all authorities tasked with handling monopoly malpractices happen to agree.

  23. Willfully identifying feds for the purpose of a crime is a FELONY. No, the fact that the data was on LinkedIn does not matter.

    Are you daft? He asked for prosecutable evidence. What the DNC did to Sanders is rightly viewed as morally reprehensible by many, but it was perfectly legal.
