Sorry, I meant don't Linux UEFI boot partitions require fat. They can't have NTFS, and I didn't think they worked with ext2?
You install your own boot manager. Not sure really is ext2, in any case, I couldn't make Linux and Windows recognize the same UEFI boot partition, so I ended up reinstalling windows, making it think it was booting the old fashioned way, and then letting Linux control UEFI and just boot Windows like an old fashioned boot partition. Though it still causing trouble.. Somewhere along the way I forget why UEFI was something I wanted anyway.
Actually I beg to differ. OSX seems to be entirely optimized for web browsing to me, which is completely opposite of being optimized for development. Because this is a thread geared towards developers on a geek site, claiming that OSX is the best, I would expect to see all kinds of well thought out cases as to why OSX is NOT the best for this king of work along with a lot of confusion why anyone would think OSX is the best. So far I have seen exactly what I would expect to see, with no good cases for OSX that anyone can explain, which leads us to to conclusion that the survey had a biased sample in some way.
The only good use-case is if you need to run and test on more than one desktop OS, and one of them is OS X. Then you need Mac, and because Linux and Windows are so flexible they can run in a VM on the OS X. There are so pretty nice VM switchers for OS X.
If you don't need OS X, well.. No, it has no good use cases.
Still. If I could run parallels on Linux like on OS X, that would make me very happy. Though mainly because I could then through my test-Mac in the trash where it belongs.
Wow.. even with the glitches I experience from time to time in my Linux desktop it still doesn't quite match the cheese grater to the testicles I feel when I use OSX. Like seriously, force people to mouse to the top of the screen every time they want to use a menu function?? The 80's are embarrassed they never caught on.
Home and end buttons justing to beginning and end of the document instead of doing something usefull. The scroll-wheel being completely fucking random in its acceleration, everything being slow as shit. A collegue of mind found out compiling on Linux inside a VM running in OS X was faster than compiling on OS X. Even though Linux used gcc and os X clang..
OS X is really a terrible operating system. It only compares favorably to Windows, and then not even that favorably if you are a developer.
You'd have to be a real masochist today to chose a Linux desktop over an OSX desktop for a Unix development experience.
Never understood the OSX superiority complex. It's almost like you guys are overcompensating for something.
The price they paid for their machine. They have to justify it to themselves, so unless they are outright dissatisfied, Apple users will always be extremely defensive.
No, when I installed Windows 8.1 on a blank disc last year, I ended up with a NTFS formatted UEFI partition, which confused Linux, so I replaced it with an ext2 one.
Home Office data shows that rape went from 27,000 to nearly 47,000 when potential attackers were assured there was no risk that a law-abiding woman might defend herself with a firearm.
You should really stop pulling facts out of your ass. The vast majority of rapes are not armed. In fact more than 99% are by a loved one, and involves little use of physical force.
I'd be willing to bet that 95% of Windows Phone users have never heard of "Here Maps" before. I hadn't. Even Here Maps said that they aren't bothering because most users are perfectly happy with the built in mapping system.
That is because the built-in mapping systems in most Windows Phones is Here Maps.
The replacement is mobile phones. I still have a radio controlled clock and rarely have issues with it. For a 3€ device it has survived a long time, and being Frabkfurt and CET based it has even handled changes to daylight savings time without any updates. That is pretty impressive, but if it died, my mobile phone would replace its function.
Apps which are put to the background are allowed to run for a little while to let them finish up what they were doing (e.g. saving something). Then they're suspended - their state is written to disk and they're flushed from memory.
Except if the the app is a messaging app, social network app, GPS using app, audio playing app, app that downloads anything or any other of the most common types of apps which all needs to and are allowed to keep running in th background.
You post a controversial joke. Funny +1 gives no karma, but every -1 correction to it (Flamebait, Troll, Offtopic, Overrated) gives -1 karma. You can end up with a +5 rated comment and -100 points of karma.
but somehow, I never pictured Lionshead getting shut down, even by our benevolent overlord Microsoft Studios. It was too iconic. It's a fixture. Hell, if it inherited just a tiny part of Peter Molyneux's ego, it should have been immortal.
It is only fitting, all the greatest studios have been killed by the company that bought them. Just to meantion the two biggest: Origin and Microprose. It was worse for Lucas Arts who was allowed to rot first after the take over before being put out of its missery.
Google is about to get some serious competition in the self-driving car race from none other than BMW
Google has been working on this AI problem since probably 2008 or so and been road-testing self-driving cars since 2011. As far as I know BMW has no development at all on this concept.
BMW along with several other manufactorers like Mercedes and Volvo, have been working on this A LOT longer than Google, and already have cars on the road. Several high-end cars have had self-driving features for years, just waiting for it to be legal to activate on high ways.
Sure, but that's how mbed TLS (former PolarSSL, the TLS library used in Hiawatha) and Hiawatha helped me. mbed TLS dropped support for it long ago and Hiawatha uses sane and secure default settings. Without any tweaking, it gives you an A rating at ssllabs.com.
OpenSSL also disables SSLv2 by default. The problem is that some people apparently overrides the safe defaults.
No, that would be SSLv3. SSLv2 was deprecated in 1998 - 18 years ago, we had years of downgrade attacks like this before it became standard practice to drow all SSLv2 support, and that is already some 10 years ago. Unless you need to support crap from the 1990s that havne't been updated, you have no excuse for support SSLv2, and if you need to support that old crap, you really should have it on a secure intranet.
Defiantly not punitive, leaning toward apologetic.
Punitative damages is an American concept. In the rest of the world you either pay damages or a (usually fixed) fine. This was appently a fine. There is scaling of some fines for large companies, but it is still mostly exceptions, which makes even big fines almost laughably small to most companies.
Of course, there's the very real possibility that Trump is sincere in his brand of crazy, and that this resonates with a lot of people.
You should be afraid of this possibility. Very very afraid.
Just look at his hair. The man has absolutely no sense of self-reflection, or would have realised long ago he looks literally (literally literally) like an ass.
He IS a special kind of crazy, but not as crazy as his supporters. He at least just doesn't reflect on anything his says or does and thus can be excused for not realising how little sense it makes.
That having been said, some of the incidents described are pretty egregious. But then university administrators have been cowardly autocrats since universities began.
No they haven't. Universities have historically been strongholds of free speech. In many countries during the middle age universities had special laws that allowed them freedom of speech eventhough no one outside the university had it.
Now, they are more business and less higher learning, and as most businesses are, they are more worried about their public image and earnings than their principles.

Given that a bus has frequent stops it is going to be hard to speed up
That is why commuter/express buses in Copenhagen only stop at every 4th normal stop.

Don't UEFI boot partitions require fat?

Never going to happen though. Once someone as much as mentions a potential risk, the result with the current culture is an overreaction to avoid it.
You should really stop pulling facts out of your ass. The vast majority of rapes are not armed. In fact more than 99% are by a loved one, and involves little use of physical force.
HERE seems like a silly name as I am already HERE. I want to go THERE!
THERE is the holding company that now owns HERE.
No, seriously.
That is because the built-in mapping systems in most Windows Phones is Here Maps.

Oh. Have you?
In sources for that or was it your that ass noted it?
We know now that we don't need any big new breakthroughs to get to true AI.
But, this isn't 'AI', it's just another 'expert system'.
It is a combination. It is a neural network guiding an expert system, and being guided by a go board state evaluator.

Bork bork bork is Swedish. The rest of the sentence looks like Dutch.
Yeah, but Norwegian can to non-speakers sound like higher pitched Swedish, so it would be: Beerk beerk beerk.
Just look at his hair. The man has absolutely no sense of self-reflection,...
Or maybe just different priorities. Einstein had messy hair, too.
His hair isn't messy, it is very deliberately organized and set, badly.
Disorganized due to other priorties is Bernie. Trump is the totally organized, just extremely bad.
Of course, there's the very real possibility that Trump is sincere in his brand of crazy, and that this resonates with a lot of people.
You should be afraid of this possibility. Very very afraid.

The John William Pope Center is a mouthpiece for a right-wing think tank, and is no friend of higher education.

You have no right not to be offended.
Shove your idea of "microagressions" right up your ass. So it can be near your brain.
Microaggresions only makes sense when using the metric system. You have to do one million of them before it amounts to an act of aggression.
