That single sentence convinced me to give it another spin. Flash on my Desire is _extremely_ precious. Sure, this problem will more or less solve itself in a year or two, but when I see a _game_ gobble up 30 MiB, I truly question the developers' sanity and technical ability. It's nice that you guys are different:)
BTW: New & faster Firefox for N810? Pretty please? Or should I stop hoping to really use that beast? A clear no is better than an endless maybe.
Yes, there will be a lot of trouble once people lose all their contacts & emails, buy a random Market app for 1000 and similar.
But this will _force_ makers, vendors, network operators and everyone else to introduce sane update policies. These machines are a small PC. They need the same software update capabilities.
Who wouldn't love to boost their brains in just about any way as long as there are not negative side effects? But when things go wrong, they _really_ go wrong.
PS: I wonder how long we are away from people being able to reprogram parts of the brain. Dissident? Just make him loyal. Some random schmuck in jail gets the peace Nobel Prize? Make him dumb. Etc pp.

Yes, they might cancel stuff that should not have been canceled, but to cite the two above as, and I quote, "TV shows which require a minimum of brain cells to watch"...
Tor generates fake throw-away traffic fro exactly this reason. As long as you only look at text, you should be fine. Especially if you use 5 layers or more.
I want an OMAP4 as an always-on server & media system. It can do 1080p decoding while half asleep and has enough power for the odd NFS request or ssh session.

0) s/have/of/ 1) dimwits? Why, thank you:) 2) As evidenced by the story author, his approach does not always work. For some, it will never work so your escalation will fail for those. 3) Why do I have to present another way? Pointing out that this approach is immature does not require me to dance around a tree. So why should I be required to fix your problem for you? 4) Your suggestion is illegal.
> Half assed wanna-be good samaritans, with no conviction to follow through.
If you do what you proposed, your own conviction might be of a kind you won't like. Though that might be the solution to the virgin-in-a-basement situation. But then, it will most likely be of a kind you won't like.
> * SMTP: You can't send a line with the word "From" as the first word? I'm not a typewriter? WTF?
Huh? The first blank line tells SMTP to stop parsing stuff as the body has begun. Far from perfect, but hey. Anyway, I just sent myself an email with "From: foo@foo.org" in the first line of the body. Needless to say, it worked.
> But these servers need to communicate anyway to maintain a "session" in any meaningful sense, so they can as well send the associated crypt key with the rest of the session information.
If they use the session for _authentication_ only, that is not necessarily case.
It's easier to say this than to do this, but I would argue that we need at least three of those locations. Unfortunately, only the near-Arctic is suitable, the southern hemisphere has no locations that are the right temperature.
Still takes ages. Send your I-D as Individual and Informative or Experimental. That way, you can submit it to the RFC Editors directly. And even that means you are looking at weeks between replies.

In any case, thanks for your work :)

I had no problems installing Debian potato. Still, I prefer today's installer. Your point being?

Yes, but it's painfully obvious. Even if I hadn't heard of it before, how can it not be obvious what a genetic algorithm is?
Also, they did not mention the problem of local maxima.
The recent computer-animated movies were nice in 3D. For everything else, it sucked.
We need more examples of large corps eating a something and other forking it into truly FLOSS.
Sure, grandstanding on the issue of privacy while butt-raping it themselves will foil a lot of people. But the key phrase is:
"This impacts fewer than a dozen, mostly small developers, none of which are in the top 10 applications on Facebook Platform"
Would they have done the same if Zynga, which generates a ton of money for them and has a large legal team, had been affected? I guess not.
> Afaik the Beagle XM decodes 1080p30
Will do, but no HDMI is a deal breaker. And no SATA sucks for what I want to do.
And in a perfect world, I want another OMAP4 in an ultra-portable Laptop. Thinkpad XO or something would be bliss.
Big is relative.
I want an OMAP4 as an always-on server & media system. It can do 1080p decoding while half asleep and has enough power for the odd NFS request or ssh session.
I would prefer an OMAP4 BeagleBoard with an extension card so I can attach SATA & HDMI, but yes.

They have been around since at least KDE 2, so I would argue they are not experimental any more.
> I take Phoronix (and ArsTechnica's Open Ended) any day over badly researched sites with moronic troll admins like OSNews.
I read neither.
Phoronix is a pest and I would be glad if it died.
Nuff said.
LGPL != right to relicense.
Obvious? Yes.
> I was awesome way before that. KEE KEE!
Obviously.

Ability to do something != ability to properly judge the outcome of something.
Fucking. painfully. obvious. _Four years old_. I don't get you. Really, I don't.
Just sue them into oblivion before they can protect themselves. Age 4 sounds about right.

I am not complaining, mind.
