  1. Re:Android in the car? on Researchers Discover Security Problems Under the Hood of Automobile Apps (arstechnica.com) · · Score: 1

    windows mobile is pretty common on shitty infotainment systems. The old Ford SYNC 1 and 2, and MyFord Touch were windows based, they were so bad that ford is getting sued over it.

    the new(model year 2016 and later) SYNC 3 is QNX and doesn't have the same issues.

  2. Re:Higher profit margins? on HTC To Stop Making Budget Android Phones This Year (neowin.net) · · Score: 1

    they should badge-engineer like the auto makers do. Sell the premium models (more RAM, more storage, faster CPU/GPU, bigger battery) under the HTC name and budget models under a different brand.

    even better if they keep many models on the same form factor so accessories will work between them, like the DTEK50/60 and IDOL4/4s.

    He is apparantly suprised that broadcasting a sign with "Death To All Jews" on it would get him fired.

    I can't think of many places where you wouldn't get fired for that sign.

  10. Re:The Housing Supply is TOO DAMN LOW! on Nobody Is Moving, Especially Millennials (nymag.com) · · Score: 1

    no reason to have high levels of housing construction regulation to artificially reduce city populations. of course there is, the existing building owners pay vast amounts in campaing contributions to keep supply suppressed well below what it ought to be, because that's how you keep 2 bedroom apartments going for over 3 fucking thousand dollars a month.

    encryption is only hard when you use poorly made tools

    gaim-encrypt (back before it was pidgin) was easy as shit to use too, it was slow back in the days of sub ghz celerons it could freeze your whole machine and make winamp skip for a moment when a messagecame in, but it was literally easy enough for children to use.

  14. It IS "work or die"

    either on a narrow scale or on a wide scale. if you subsidize shiftlessness eventually nobody works and everybody dies.

  16. Re:In-Person Purchasing on The Man Who Broke Ticketmaster (vice.com) · · Score: 1

    part of the convenience fee goes to the venue, it's basically ticketmaster taking the flak for higher prices in exchange for some of the profit (so a venue might get $42.50 for a $40 ticket with a $5 fee)

  17. Re:So can we use this for personal routing? on How UPS Trucks Saved Millions of Dollars By Eliminating Left Turns (ndtv.com) · · Score: 1

    roundabouts. the key difference is in a roundabout the traffic inside have right of way so it self-manages congestion.

    traffic circles have stops or yields on the inside ring and so it tends to jam up when traffic is heavy, especially if two or more entrances have a lot of traffic.
