e.g. quit linking to The Verge They do some good reviews but most of the contributors are rabid Apple fanbois who post garbage like "The Death of Windows Phone".
Because posting doesn't return you to the original place in the discussion, I right-click a "Reply to This" link to add a new comment in a new tab. Maybe it's a firefox thing but it oft complains even if I haven't posted for hours (cookie?)
/. seems fairly pro-Republican, pro-nuke, CC denialist. Not to mention every Firefox story degenerates into a Reductio ad Eich, in support of 'traditional marriage'.
Slashdot, a North American website, can't even display French and Spanish - the official languages of NAFTA.
Metal heads can't type in the name of their fave band because of the umlaut, Mathematics nerds can't use greek letters in formulas and linguistic nerds would benefit from IPA.
At the very least, white-list certain character ranges and combos.
It wouldn't surprise me there's a team developing a top secret version of OS X on the iPad Pro for the day when theyÂre forced to compete head-to-head with the Surface Pro. Why wouldn't OS X Macbook Air users benefit from a detachable keyboard and an iPencil...
Quieter (fan noise) and less energy usage would be the main benefits then.
You might save $10/quarter on electricity with a new machine. Then there's the cost of a battery replacement for an old machine.
Though you might have to buy adapters for all your 'legacy' equipment and buy an external DVD drive and put up with other people's fingerprints on your touchable screen.
I never settled on a native RSS client but use theoldreader on both desktop and mobile.
I agree if sites don't have feed I tend to forget about them rather than reloading a series of bookmarks in case they have something interesting on them.
Why doesn't Apple just buy a sunny island in the Mediterranean and declare themselves a sovereign nation?
That would shut the US government up!
e.g. Formentera in the Balearic Islands. Population 11,000. Spain are broke and anyway have that pesky problem with Catalan independence. (yes I know the Balearics are separate from Catalonia but still)
Slashdot Mirror
While discussions may be in English, foreign terms and placenames are frequently mentioned.

The slow down cowboy is broken anyway.

+1 Flamebait :)
editing documents on a 3.6" screen sounds more painful than 'Respectable'.
But each to their own. :)
The removable battery thing is handy if you're working with a bleeding edge unstable ROM.
Rather than hold the power button down for 10 seconds to force a shutdown, flip off the cover and pull the battery.
The Nexus line is a hacker series built by hackers for hackers.
Those in the modding community and Slashdot readers are more likely to want those features than Henry HTC or Sally Samsung, no?
Scroll down the front page.
Only a few hours ago, someone was demanding Apple release a "killer" device.
It's a Core M, so it's competing with $1299 Macbook (not the Pro)
at least choose a comparable model.
The IDE is doing what, exactly?
It's been a while since I did Java work but Eclipse/NetBeans worked comfortably in 4GB.
Didn't that die when every vendor switched over to USB-C? :)
And they still cant handle 'foreign' non ASCII characters in the summary...
Wolverine fans, surely.

Wine or Android?

Vote buying? Im sure this is illegal but...
Pledge $20 to candidate X if s/he gets elected president you win an iPhone 7 limit 1000000 customers

4) no troll is complete without mentioning systemd has replaced much of traditional configuration :)
So the usual complaint about Mozilla adding bloat that no one would ever want is only implementing cross-browser 'standards'! :)
(I'll give them Pocket - that should be an add-on but even Hello is just a shiny UI around webrtc)

Your français/Deutsch keyboard mapping seems broken. :)
