Hello?! It's called Star Wars. You expect space conflict without casualties?
Spare a thought for the families of countless unnamed stormtroopers that the Millennium Falcon vanquished in battle, whose children now grow up without a dad. Now some old veteran escapes with a broken leg? Spare me.
I've never done global roaming, picking up a local SIM when I get there. So what happens if my Australian bank detects I've been shopping in Argentina or Portugal and asks to verify I haven't had my details stolen by sending an SMS?
My previous phone had dual-SIM which might have been an option. Although these Asian manufactured things tend to be 4G on one and 2G on the other, which is no help if, as here in AUS, they intend to discontinue 2G capability.
People are tired of strapping on a watch, having pockets for a phone and requiring an audio receiver jammed in one's ear - all with abysmal battery life.
Wouldn't it be simpler if one had nano-implants powered by one's own metabolism, connected via 4G 24/7 to all your friends who could sense your thoughts, with a gigapixel video camera augmenting your eye socket?
Shove a cable into your belly button and you could directly charge all your USB devices via your own tummy fat.
I'd prefer if Qt and Gtk+ programs were diverted via pluggable shared libs to use their Win32 backends and bypass X11 altogether but that's an exercise for the reader.
Back in August, Windows 10, general release, had a trouble free upgrade from 7 but then broke a few weeks later, blue screening after which I had to manually update the wifi drivers from a zip file.
Well if Slashdot had linked the Mozilla blog post instead of some random softpedia clickbait, you might have read where they are working with distros to incorporate the rust toolchain.
We have active discussions from the Rust side on getting the rust compiler into all of the major Linux distributions. There's definitely some complexity there, but the Rust community is working hard on doing it before Firefox would require Rust to build by default.

Well they would have had 14 but the crew of Challenger were unavailable.
Too soon?
OP has obviously never backpacked, where mixed gender shared rooms are common.
What government?
2 elections in 6 months and still in crisis.

No, the headline is correct. The car's chassis is made from one giant LED, echoing late 90s kitsch.
The initial model will only come in Bondi Blue but later customizations will allow buyers to select from a choice of designs.
Me? I'll wait for the Flower Power release.
One reason I avoid SMS signups - travel.

Which is why Firefox OS failed; there was no XUL.
What does the link at the bottom have to do with the story?
Stop it.
Anyone else worried this is how the Borg started?

I must be lucky, I guess - never having cracked a phone's screen.
My current phone has cheap plastic and is an astonishing 2.0mm thicker than an iPhone 6s. So maybe smaller and lighter means more breakage?

No Haskell?
Were your drivers up to date to begin with?
Back in August, Windows 10, general release, had a trouble free upgrade from 7 but then broke a few weeks later, blue screening after which I had to manually update the wifi drivers from a zip file.
I'm running testing, mainly because at the time I bought the machine, drivers were work in progress, i.e. Intel's xorg implementation.
if you're running a Linux LTS release that's older than the hardware you're running, 'unstable' may be more stable than 'stable', if that makes sense.
I could now downgrade back from stretch to jessie at this point, probably, with backports enabled.
I thought he meant Seth Green, Dr Evil's ginger offspring.
Not in this case. Dos equis is drinkable.
Mexicans spell it XX.
Sure but the govt want to spend $au50B ripping out adsl2+ for a 35% increase so ISPs can charge more
Move to Australia, where 25Mbp/s is considered 'broadband'. :( Thanks, Malcolm.
That would rely on too much of the Win32 subsystem.
If you really want the experience, ReactOS have reimplemented Windows Explorer from scratch. Hook that up to wine if you wish.
i blame the Klingons.
Your loss.
Kiwis are wonderful people and you missed out on a great life immersing experience of working in the South Pacific.
Sure but this is only a proof of concept done by Canonicalistas. Surely you can launch window manager/DE of choice using similar steps.
TOS episode, 'Bread and Circuses" where they traveled to a 20th century Roman Empire where subversives were worshiping "The Son".
Maybe no Christian crew members but the writers certainly had their moment.
