As for people in dense urban areas like NYC, they largely don't have cars.
Bloody oath. I live in a city with urban sprawl where it takes 140 minutes by public transport to visit my brother (a 45 minute car journey) in 'Greater' Melbourne.
I would happily trade a life in the 'burbs for an apartment in a metropolis with a world class subway. Madrid springs to mind, if only it had a coastline...
linkedin is these days mostly social media for millennial recruiters such as those stupid mathematical formula puzzles.
"Oooh, look at lovely cake Bridget baked for Friday morning tea" "Congratulations to Jeremy and Ivan for finishing second in the badminton at the corporate games" "top 17 techniques for sprucing up your CV"
Maybe once a year will one of them actually contact me about a role they have. Perhaps if some scrapes and on-sells my data I might get a few more leads!
Monetary scams are common in low income developing nations with poor education, where susceptible people invest in pyramid schemes run by 'honest' folk who would never defraud them because of their 'good' character and reputation within the community.
Well for me virtualization on my Windows 10 machine isn't an option.
I haven't bothered to vmware it but Virtualbox assumes certain processor extensions that aren't found in my 7yo laptop's Intel CPU. Attempting to run Linux gave a weird kernel panic on boot.
[For 99% of computing tasks I'd be happy enough on Linux but am currently running Windows 10 on this old laptop because hot-plugging displays via usb (displaylink) isn't as seamless.]
And that should be a function of the operating system, not the web page.
I would expect text to reflow, as it does on Slashdot, to the width of a user's browser. If they wish less horizontal width then they may resize the window according to preference.
Worse, you get horizontal scroll bars when resizing a window thinner than the designer had expected. 'Desktop' websites don't reflow on mobile and involve annoying zooming to read - as an excuse to build a fancy app that no one really needs or wants but all their competitors have, so we won't customise or fix our broken web page for small screens.
Instead, designers have largely adopted your 60-70 character adage to serve annoying ads either side of the content.
So, no, I don't have a compelling reason to install ChakraCore on my Linux box. However, half a dozen or so already reside there - anything that depends on node requires a JS engine, Gtk+ and Qt embed versions with their toolkits and openjdk has rhino and nashorn for Java EE.
Does the world need yet another JS engine? Well probably not but there may be a use case.
I know, right.
Things have gotten so bad down here that the police have had to erect traffic signs with messages of "Don't drive and Pokemon".

Tencent? Pffft!
Let us know when 50 Cent releases his own videochat client.
Intel dumped the 'phone' SoC from the roadmap months back. There was a story here about its demise.
So rumours about an x86 Surface Phone are complete vaporware since the line of Intel chips that MS were planning on using don't exist.

I dunno, that toastie she's eating looks mighty delish.
I have time for an external viewer when pdf.js performs poorly on old hardware, whereas sumatra and atril don't choke.
Debian have a reproducible builds project for that reason.
Eds, why not check the article and link directly to zdnet and not the 'sister' publication?
Well I don't know about Brazil but that's the custom in Argentina, because of poor plumbing which will clog the pipes.
Actually, yes.

Evil villain lances President Trump's left eye using a barbecue fork then detonates nuclear arsenal using iris scan.
No sign of systemd here, yet. :)

Septic tank
Yeah, I upgraded 11 1/2 months ago.
Good to know though. If my next $50 laptop from the pawn shop again comes with Windows 7, there's an upgrade path.
3-letter-agents bear walkie-talkies.
I'm reading your comment in widescreen right now.
It fits on one line, why would I want to line wrap?
Maybe then there's some truth to Microsoft's claim that Edge consumes less battery.
I tried Edge and have stuck with Firefox.

Oh come on it was semi-ontopic, starring Control agent 99. We are discussing espionage...
Yeah I've been blaming global warming for warmer weather and less rainfall.
Turns out it was just the continent shifting closer to the Equator?
I know, right.
