For years, people screamed they wanted cable ala carte, they wanted to pick and choose what channels they get and now that future is here. This is the future we wanted. You can make good arguments about pricing but we got what we wished for.
When the City of Pittsfield installed these the amount of gun shootings went down noticibly. My neighborhood is quiet now. I am now very much pro ShotSpotter.
The launcher positioning on the bottom is great but unless they changed something, autohide is broken. You can set it to autohide but the hot corners are still for the left side option only.
I think it was the cost compared to the benefit IF the technology was there and there was no guarantee it was (or would be). I am on the left and I'm not against the idea per se, I just have to be convinced it's both feasible and effective.
He's 100% right. The money the spent on a Mars trip would be better served fixing our crumbling infrastructure. What's the point of sending humans to mars when people die from bad roads and failing bridges everyday?
Of course the same could be said about throwing trillions at the F-35.
One of the things that went wrong with X was that we tried to pull too much of the OS into X so that we could run on every old platform out there. Or to put it more bluntly, bending over backwards for fringe platforms
He seems to forget that Linux was once a "fringe platform". Sigh. https://archive.fosdem.org/2012/interview/kristian-hogsberg
By putting an ISBN on your work, it is available in every wholesalers and retailer's database. Your book can be ordered anywhere by anyone. Amazon's identifier is for Amazon only.
Authors don't have to pay that much for an ISBN when they self publish. Lulu.com for instance charges $40 for a "global distribution package" which includes an ISBN.
I live in the next over from where they print the paper used on $1 bills. $1 bills are by far the most common demonination and it's loss would be economic disaster for the region. There is just no way to absorb all the workers who'd lose their jobs if Crane (who makes the paper) loses that amount of business from the government. On the top of that no Senator from Massachusetts would ever support it and a majority of the our Representatives wouldn't either.
I agree with the idea of dropping the dollar bill but it it would be a politcal and economic disaster for Massachusetts, thus won't happen for a long time, if ever.
Yes and no. Bands like Pink Floyd stopped officially releasing singles but the record companies carried on packing tracks as singles, because they could and helped the record sell. After the sixties the next official single release was "Another Brick In The Wall, Part Two" in 1979. Led Zepplin never released a single, the record company did that all on their own.

I just was thinking yesterday: Know what I need? Another streaming service in my life!
I have no idea if vinyl sounds any better but what I miss is the artwork, the covers, gatefolds and sleeves. Not even CDs got close.

Woooooosh!
Someone actually paid money for this? Was it someone's nephew? Can they get their money back?

The command to move it for the bottom works in the live environment, in case you want to try it.
In any WM/desktop I've use I've always had the launcher at the bottom. The fact that Unity now has it makes me very happy.

We used to pay people to do things we do now: pump our gas, do our laundry, etc. Not only do we work our job, we do jobs other people used to.

Did you get the newsletter that Woz is still an Apple employee with an annual stipend of $120,000 andhe still owns shares in the company?
Do you ever intend to return to Belize to face the charges leveled against you? Or do you enjoy being a fugitive from justice?
Are there any screenshots available? I can't seem to find any.
Chromebooks are getting apps that can be used offline, packaged apps. They are already in beta and are due out probably at I/O.
Wayland is Linux specific because...

You way over thinking this. And yes the whole "nerds don't know about pussy" is kind of old.
Looks like the founder of Chakra Linux moved to this project.
They are slow, that's why. Look for the announcement here when it comes: http://blog.opengroup.org/
I have no idea. Someone had CDE working with xcompmgr a few weeks ago.
