  1. Also as for ChromeOS before Android applications: on Tim Sweeney Dislikes Windows 10 Cloud Rumors, Calls OS 'Crush Steam Edition' (arstechnica.com) · · Score: 1

    It's terrible and not competition to Windows!!

    Turn Windows into ChromeOS and chances are I'll make the switch back to Linux.

    Whatever turning Windows into something with Windows store only is enough for that .. Maybe. I unlikely want to lose all chance to tinker with the main computer so to say.

    The openness of the PC is what make it so great. Talk all you want about closed source OS but the platform has been pretty accessible anyway... at-least relative what one could imagine by now ...

    "The Sony home-computer!" ..

  2. Aren't Windows defender heavier than Bitdefender and Avast or something?
    I saw some test of transaction times to start applications, copy files and such where Windows defender was slower.

    All of the oxygen was made in the sun.

    More correct would likely had been to say "in the stars" or "in some star" if it's ok to talk about single oxygen molecules.

    Now when you mentioned it though I have used the browser but stopped once it used a lot of RAM/swap/SSD writes but so did Chrome so it was likely related.

    Their browser can be described as Chrome engine with old Opera user-interfaces/functionality. It's very nice. Lots of features and the best browser engine.

    It is the largest problem and it is all problems with Swedish society.

    It create more and more of all problems.

    The only "problem" I can think of which isn't due to immigration is that people live longer, have had fewer children and as such that the share of the population which are older and hence wouldn't work if it was the normal Swedish society would had grown larger making them more of a burden of society.
    My solution there would had been to let each generation or individual save money for their own pension instead of relying on future tax payers.
    But yeah. That isn't directly connected to immigration and is a "problem" of it's own. However Swedish refugee immigration isn't a solution to that problem regardless because of how poorly qualified they are and how long it take to get them into jobs and how many of those jobs are subsidized jobs. For the refugees to contribute positively to that AT THIS TIME they would have to job and pay in taxes and not collect welfare. However refugees will get old too and will need to be supported at that age they as-well and as such over their life-time they will just weight the Swedish system down even more.
    Some news tabloid just recently bragged about how many more of the immigrants got a job here than in Denmark and Norway and so on it was just that 4/5 of those jobs was subsidized so .. Yeah.. Great! .. Tino has posted before that immigrants income from salaries and companies are 41% less than the native Swedes, Sweden have progressive taxation but that of course mean that the taxes they pay in is also at-least 41% less and since fewer of them work more of them will collect welfare.
    There's also things like they being over-represented in heavy criminality with 3-4 times, some of them in rape cases 20+ times but by now I assume it's even higher but the political establishment doesn't want new up to date numbers of that for some reason .. Their cars ends up in crashes four times as often, all the smashed schools, burned cars, buildings, people who feel less safe, are murdered, are raped, people who cheat the system, feel less trust in the system, so on, all of that have a cost too.

    Lameness filter encounter:
    Oh, I easily found the problem. I had written "House N______" and that word was the problem. I don't see how a word can be a problem. What you express with it maybe.

    Here in Sweden and I assume in many others places too the common picture is that national-socialists are the ones who risk destroying democracy through democracy / by being elected and who can cause fascism and dictatorships because that's the message they have been brought up with all along but back in reality it's those same people who are the real fascists, anti-democrats, racists and sexists who want to limit freedom of speech, don't respect democracy and elections, don't want people to have their vote, think that "he's a middle-class white male!" is a reason to ignore someones opinion / not let them speak / ignore whatever interest that person had. There people call immigrants who are pro actual freedom rather than their socialist dreams house n*, traitors of "their people" and like a few days ago our prime-minister commented about how one woman with immigrant background had expressed her opinion in some foreign magazine about Swedish immigration(?) politics and how that was damaging and it also happen that those same people claim that those who are against their political view are "traitors of the nation"... Sure they aren't fascists and anti-democratic and pro freedom .... Such great "liberal"s and "democrat"s.

    by demonizing the other side. This dehumanizes them and allows you to make ridiculous statements like the above post

    That's the default method to operate of the left.

    The people in charge like it when you do this because it divides people and allows the people in charge to pit the people against each other to their own benefit.

    The left all the time talk about how the other side turn people and groups against each other but of course they are the most active ones of doing so against anyone who don't share their socialist view of equal outcome.

    Slashdot says "Lameness filter encountered. Post aborted!" - I don't know why but I'll split up the reply.

    Yea right. And Timothy McVeigh wasn't a right wing Militia member that blew up a building and killed an entire daycare's worth of kids.

    No-one has said they don't exist.
    What he said was:

    Because conservatives aren't as hateful and violent as liberals?

    Which is correct.
    This is the situation in the US:
    source.
    "Terrorist Attacks on U.S. Soil by Group, From 1980 to 2005, According to FBI Database"
    Latino: 42%
    Extreme left wing: 24%
    Jewish: 7%
    Islamic: 6%
    Communist: 5%
    Others: 16%
    There is non specifically for right-wing, I don't know what others include, maybe they consider right-wing the norm/need no title and all 16% is right-wing? Even if that was the case the extreme left with 24% is more.

    Here in Sweden our security police used to regard the left-wing as the biggest threat and the ratio between them and the right was 9:1 or higher. Last time I saw it they mentioned Islamic threat instead. I assume the left may be a bigger threat to the democracy but Islamic a bigger threat when it comes to deadly violence.

    In a more civilized society where freedom of speech and democracy and influence is a thing you may not have to use such methods.
