You mean everyone isn't using Paint3d, Edge, etc?? Microsoft can't seem to afford to pay any developers to keep the stuff everyone uses running, but they sure seem to find lots of devs to create new stuff that no one will ever use.
Netflix just released a series called Dirty Money that has an episode on the VW scandal. I just wanted to bury my face in my hands. It's obvious exactly what went on and that senior executives knew. It's a very interesting, but depressing documentary.
Are you sure you're "unlocking" in your pocket? And if you're in the kind of meetings I'm in, you could hold it up, make a duckface and take a selfie, and no one else in the meeting would even notice.
I work for a heavy DocuSign user and we received 1000's of emails from a Russian IP block (109.86.203.0/24) sending the phishing emails. I'm escalating the issue to our DocuSign sales reps and their management. I believe that security only gets better when customers demand companies pay attention to it.
Vote for the Dell Latitude E7470 series here. They are sleek, not insanely slim like some, but definitely ultrabook thin. Upsides are high-res and touchscreen, 4G capability, upgradable RAM and SSD (a least on the 7450, haven't gotten a new 7470 in yet. The best part is the docking support. I know that you can plug in USB 3 "docks" or some thunderbolt docks, but nothing beats dropping your laptop into a dedicated "real" dock/port replicator and everything just works at full speeds. Multi-monitor and dual-displayport capability. Battery life is great.
Downsides are that they are not unibody aluminum and the price ($1500+). They are not cheap. You pay for it. But it's a damn good machine for the money.
I agree 100%. I tried ChromeOS expecting to hate it. I mean come on, an "OS" that was nothing but a browser? But it is actually a very simple, decent OS. Fantastic for Grandma or anyone else that needs just something simple. It's totally fast, and does all the basics you could need it to. Office? No, not happening, unless you want a "browser" version of it. But I was surprised how much I liked it.
I second Mikrotik. I've deployed them to all the small branches in our company and at the core as well. You get an amazing amount of features for the price. You can also get smaller units that are perfect for home use and cost around the same as a home AP.
You mean when is it going to work on the Droid 1 right? You kids and your Droid 3's. Back in my day we had 550 mhz and 256 MB RAM and had to use it on the way to school in a blizzard, uphill both ways.
Still rocking the Droid 1 with CM7, although this little puppy is getting slooooowww...
You've probably got the mouse and keyboard too far from the transmitter. I bought a MS wireless keyboard/mouse combo and had the same problems. MS wireless devices seem to need to be extremely close to the transmitter, I'm talking 2-3 feet. Logitech products work from a far greater distance. Try moving the keyboard and mouse very close to the transmitter (couple of inches) and see if the problem goes away.
Strange. I downloaded Console v2.00 beta 142. When I run it on Vista SP1 it opens, but the text appears to be black-on-black. Setting the font color to white or any other color doesn't seem to help. Not sure if it's just me or not. Is KDE required?
Sourceforge screenshots look great though!

I'm *dying* over here! Good one!
Hey, my VAX might be a little bulky, heavy, hot, and yea, power hungry, but the keyboard is so smooth! Designed for touch, and lots of it!
My kingdom for mod points!
Do you think this will work with my Adlib card?

Just FYI, Mikrotik's latest Cloud Core Routers use the Tile CPUs. I sure hope this mean's Tile isn't the end of the line for Mikrotik!

Yggdrasil for the win!
We've gone from System V to System76, what about all the ones in the middle?

I've always wanted to learn to swear in French (seriously!). Care to share any good ones?
lol at the poets and robot repair guys! Made my day!
Any good on-the-job stories?

Turn it up! Tuuuurn it uppppp! - Grandpa Simpson
Ahh, thank you!! Never saw that so I had to ask. Thanks!
Just curious, where is this quote from? I tried Googling for it, but no exact match. The Island of Dr. Moreau?
If only they released a model that detected a real live woman. Much more useful to the Slashdot community!
