Also in Sweden even if I'm not "the clouds bitch" I'm the bitch of my government.
We don't have true freedom of speech here.
On the cloud you can lie about who you are. So on occasions it could become freer because you make it so (just like people in MENA may be more able to actually express their hate when we are.)
Facebook and twitter is the established channels for spreading information (heck, lots of unrelated websites use comment sections which connects straight to Facebook, and another lot let you login using Facebook, Google+ or Twitter for instance.)
There's a difference in "should be taken down" and "Twitter could take it down if they wanted to."
Also I totally hate that the communication channels are privately owned and that there isn't a governmental one which offered FULL freedom of speech (and anonymity too maybe.)
It suck that something like Facebook sit on so much control and power.
The Quran...;/ (terrorists, your local dictator, whatever. It's got nothing to do with freedom at least.)
I hate it when some shitty informed people confused being insulted / taking negative criticism as having their "rights" violated.
Some Muslim on Swedish TV who talked about "religious freedom" when it came to blasphemy, as is his prophet should be respected.
Guess what? Religious freedom mean I'm free to not have a religion and don't care. It's not my religion, not my prophet and he doesn't and shouldn't matter.
It's just bullshit from their nasty culture. So how much religious freedom Islam offers. Or human rights.
Wish I lived in America / had the same rights. Fuck Europe and Sweden. Ok, I get it, too bad the Jews was killed. But let me express myself and don't do the stupid mistake of blending people of different culture. Accept we get well-fare immigration from people who don't like our society and do something about it / keep them out.
Sure the terrorists may want them to be shown but it also show of Islamic extremism as it is and not as the "but what if?"-Islamophobia-bullshit-idiots would want you to believe.
I don't really care if it have others. And I don't necessarily care for Dalvik VM either.
What I meant was actual Android. So whatever the OS was good/flopped or not the phone would so to speak had been a no-risk purchase (Maybe they don't want to spend that time and effort moving over Android though.)
I guess Dalvik is better than nothing. I don't know how good it's on the Jolla phone.
Nokias MeeGo and last Symbian phones had USB OTG and MHL too. I didn't really see that as all that interesting (sure Ubuntu would have better desktop software than Symbian.)
I wonder where Microsoft will be in all of this (using shared OS foundation won't it?), the very likely competition from them vs Steam kinda have materialized in something real with Xbox for Windows 10.
Exactly. A Linux advocate is going to be educated enough to make a recommendation for them.
Friends don't let friends use IE?;D
Reminds me of a girl I was visiting two (?, three?) times.
As is my habit (?) I spent some time "fixing" her computer =P, hum.. she didn't liked the "fixes" so the browser had to go the second time.
I don't know whatever the suggestions would be objective / educated enough from everyone, heck, some would likely suggest "HashBang!" or ArchLinux or Sabayon or elementary or.. PC-BSD or whatever.
But back in the real world the competition / relevant stuff kinda close to always have been Redhat, SuSE, Debian, Slackware and possibly some "do it yourself"-dist.
Picking something else is kinda like going with "Magnaton browser" instead of Chrome or Firefox. Pick any of the popular (in number of users not hype) and it likely won't be all that terrible.
Likely still would had been a good purchase but it would had been better without the unfair pricing.
Also if it ran Android too it would be a safer purchase (don't remember if it did.)
Then again I guess OnePlus released close to what they intended to release (not necessarily at all the same phone but what I mean is a different premium phone) but the One wasn't not just premium priced (one could argue the Edge(?) deserved to have a higher price - since possibly the material selection would be closer to that of a new Apple device) but also come at a deep discount against similar devices from the established competition.
Then again the Edge(?) was supposed to be an enthusiast phone where maybe OnePlus would be completely ok and want to sell to anyone, had they got the capacity (or maybe not to preserve demand for a future model with a better profit margin?)
(I would say Debian if my very old experience wasn't old packages and I guess they are still older than Ubuntu or Mint, I realize none of them are rolling releases but then again I personally think I'd take a reasonably reliable machine over that anyway.)
Desktop environments sure go ahead. You can always switch back. Or just go with KDE or Gnome and be done with it.
"Avoid the schoolyard bully," I never learned this, all I did was suffer. Come on, school being a totally miserable experience is normal for a huge number of kids.
It's easier in the US.
They are allowed to have guns:)
I never learned it either.
Supposedly I was home from school for half a year but it's nothing I remember myself.
I'm tired and didn't really think it through but just didn't thought it limited to 30 Hz.
I expected it to vary with the in-between frame-rates where the monitor updated at its 60 Hz but the graphics card never delivering any in-between frames content but only full frames and just drop frames in-between or provide no new content if that was the case depending on the actual in-between frames wait period.

The thing is that "no-one" is watching them.

What is there to teach them?
If you taught them about what you believe is right and wrong why shouldn't they be able to handle it?
Can't they tell "this is wrong"?
What's the problem really?
That violence, terror and death become normalized? It of course is in the mind of many persons there.
The Quran ... ;/ (terrorists, your local dictator, whatever. It's got nothing to do with freedom at least.)

Just show them.

It's not impossible.

But that is a 10 sided D10.
What I meant with creative was say roll a cylinder and put 0-9 on it.
Such a "die" would only have three sides.
But regular D10s have 10 sides. Of course.
I don't really care if it have others.
And I don't necessarily care for Dalvik VM either.

I saw a board game today which had "10 sided D10":

(Guess one could go creative in dice designs but .. it really is the standard.)
What says Ubuntu or Jolla or Firefox isn't that?
Whatever you can modify it all that much after that I don't know.
What for a new phone (though they sold the tablet with the old phone at a discounted price)?

IndieGoGo.

No I'm not.
I'm a desktop user. openSUSE > Fedora.
For serious work maybe Redhat Enterprise is better (just as maybe Debian would be better than Mint for it) but it's not my purpose.
I'm all for fighting DRM, but building what would be a mostly useless device and having it sit unsold serves no purpose.
You so like totally don't work for the government / state / municipals / .. whatever is the flavor which work for you :)
Sure. Switch away.
Realize you did it for nothing / for worse.
(I would say Debian if my very old experience wasn't old packages and I guess they are still older than Ubuntu or Mint, I realize none of them are rolling releases but then again I personally think I'd take a reasonably reliable machine over that anyway.)
Desktop environments sure go ahead. You can always switch back. Or just go with KDE or Gnome and be done with it.
I would assume more the DRM and Wi-Fi-antenna is part of "stuff we couldn't figure out in time"/"didn't work as intended."
Yup, if you want "Good old Linux" you've got Slackware.
And if all you want is "Good Linux" you've got openSUSE.
Also:
"This looks like a better solution than the ChromeCast"
"I have no wait another 6 month?!"
Please don't roll us LMDE folk into the festering shithole of Systemd.
Calm down, relax, breath and just give a little resistance which you then give up over and over and it's soon over and systemd will be installed.
There's no reason to fight it because it will happen.
Make the selection easier for them.
Like say "Mint(Or Ubuntu, whatever, but I guess the hip on /. is to hate on Ubuntu now) or openSUSE?"
Or just mention one for them and tell them to get that one.
Simple enough (Heck, people will say Windows 8 or 7 too.)
How fucking hard is it?
"Oh I don't deal with floppies no more and the optical discs can't be read!"
So?
Currently it would be hard-drives, even if that mean the new one will be half-filled with the content of your old one (depending on how you do it ..)
How far in the future they will scale or whatever we'll deal with data volumes it's reasonable to keep at home in the future I don't know.
For now it's not harder than getting discs + NAS / whatever yourself.
Some people argue dying at 75 is good.
Some people would rather the physically and mentally fit in their 80-100 and then die at 100 rather than ill 80-120 and die at 120.

Or well, forget the first line.
I'm tired and didn't really think it through but just didn't thought it limited to 30 Hz.
I expected it to vary with the in-between frame-rates where the monitor updated at its 60 Hz but the graphics card never delivering any in-between frames content but only full frames and just drop frames in-between or provide no new content if that was the case depending on the actual in-between frames wait period.
I thought vertical sync just removed the tearing and would show 59 Hz on the 60 Hz display with one frame being twice as long.
Anyway Adaptive VSync isn't Adaptive-Sync.
Adaptive VSync is an Nvidia thing which switches between vertical sync on and off depending on the frame rate.
Adaptive-Sync is the the VESA standard which let the graphics hardware decide when the monitor should refresh.
