Actually Flash is not banned from iOS, it is only not supported in any App coming from Apple. There are a few browsers in the AppStore that come with a build in Flash Engine.
Flash is still crashing my Mac regularly. Not as often as it used to, but its habit to eat up CPU and crash the whole computer (instead of just the process it is running in) is pretty annoying. I only use it on two sites... it is a nice feature that modern browsers have settings to allow Flash etc. only on specific sites.
I remember when iOS was less popular the fanboys were all saying it was impervious to viruses and hacking! I have to admit (not to my credit)... Apple tries very hard that it is. You know, every App is Sandboxed in a changeroot and runs with their own user/group id. Only exploitable bugs and most often only on jailbroken devices lead to such weaknesses. See: https://www.theiphonewiki.com/...
And calling one a fanboi just because he uses iOS/macOS is plain stupid IMHO.
So I really wonder what that I did enjoy rubbing it in their face later. you rubbed into their face?
It would be actually interesting how that date format evolved, because in my opinion it is the most retarded one and has nothing to do with how you would write it as in "Monday, the thirteenth of January 2017", or "say it" for that matter.
I have to use it at work since 6 weeks... you can not even properly grab the edge of the window with a mouse to resize it.
Dragging a window from one screen to the other or releasing it to close to the edge... then it will go full screen automatically... the search function in the explorer is not working properly... since windows 7 I think. And people "volunteeringly" use this pile of crap?
I close my Dell Laptop, unplug it from the docking station.
Next morning I plug it in again.
All windows are now on the screen of the laptop and not where they have been before: a nice set of chat and mail tools on the laptop screen and all the programming tools on the "external/main" screen.
Helllllllllo? That worked 1987 on a Mac just fine!!
And it is impossible to have a window overlap screens, the sizes get distorted... and trust me, the resolution of the laptop is just fine, bullshit like this never happened on a Mac.
So the 10M people have no clue how a computer should work but are masochist enough to beta test...
Actually there is no singular "you" in the english language. The "you" you use to address another person is plural, like the french "vou" and the german "Sie".
The single version used to be "thou" and you find it in very old texts.
We are currently in a period of temporary warming due to the high amount of mid-20th century solar activity That is wrong. We have no increase of solar activity. In fact it decreasing since over a decade.
Our conditions in the current period are identical to the temporary warming known as the Medieval Warming This is wrong, too. For starters: we have no clue at all what caused the Medieval Warming. On top of that: we had three such periods, which do you refer to?
We are now entering a era of minimal solar activity, identical to the Maunder Minimum Possible, But we have no real evidence for that. And somehow you are contradicting yourself, did you not say we have a high solar activity?
brought about the horrible period of death, disease, and famine known as the Little Ice Age. Historically correct, but irrelevant for today, as with our CO2 levels we hardly would notice a new "Maunder Minimum"
The rest of your post is just nonsense. With current CO2 levels there won't be any "ice ages" anymore.
stave off another ice age, another epoch frozen crops, famine, disease, and plague. We live now in a gloabl world, were food can be brought from everywhere to everywhere. Against diseases we have medicine and hospitals. Against plagues we have sanitation and hygine and other means, including medicine and vaccination.
To much tech talk. 8) hu? who knows what that acronym means? 5) hu? sure, I prefer GIT, too. But your statement is just idiotic! 1) what is the difference between Linux and Mac OS? Considering your post I doubt you will be able to correctly tell me 5 differences. 9) 'multi head set up', wow, who again is comprehending this kind of slang? Ah yes, the point why I actully answered was 4) How much CPU performance do you lose running you beloved Linux in a VM on a Mac under Mac OS X? Hint: a person can not notice the difference. Even if you would utilize the CPU(s) 100%, you barely would be able to quantify the difference over the course of a few days.
It is actually embarassing enough that people that 'think about' / 'write about' or even 'fight for' equality and human rights get defamed as SJWs... and that in a country that invented the term 'political correctness'... just my thoughts.
Is it realy so hard to live and let live with out putting 'brand' labels on other people?
I was not talking about the insurrances but about the hospitals and doctors. Those are the most expensive in the world, for no aparent reason than: they are scarse, only a few people can afford a hospital, the whole system is rigged to offer services to those few people. Of course insurances have to adapt to that. Which means they are expensive and that only a few people can afford them.
There can not be a gradual change to that. You have to be prepared to radically change the system, the "health industry".
A modern country simply pays about 15% of its GDP for health. The question only is: do only a few benefit from a super expensive health industry, or do all benefit from affordable health care?
Actually in countries from Scandinavia where they have no 'health care' but free health service based on taxes, the total spending for 'health' is much lower than 15%.
Why do you ask such a question is beyond me. But alas there are no 'stupid questions' only 'stupid answers'. Or as Master Ken would phrase it: 'only stupid people, that ask those questions'. I lost track, what eas your question again?
When I watch movies, I either sit in a train, a plane, sometimes a car, or in/on my bed. And as rule number one for a healthy sex life: no TV in the bed room.
Oh, and BTW I don't own a TV and will very likely never buy one as I *only* watch movies on my laptops. However I conisered to buy 2 40" TVs and use them as computer screens...
Ah, just for the reference, I live in germany. There is nothing on TV worth watching anyway.
Actually both World if Warcraft and Eve Online can not perform an online upgrade on a case sensitive HFS+ Well, don't know it is right now, but while I had them on a case sensitive external drive a few years ago, they both complained during updates.
I saw a counterfied iPad on my last trip to Thailand, but as I "knew" all model types of iPads, I recognized imediatly that it is not an iPad. (It was an Android tablet with Apple Logo etc. on it, made from plastics... but looked quite convincing on the first glance, but the formfactors etc. were all wrong).

Any ideas?
Here is everything peer reviewed.
But that might not indicate that it is reviewed by "your peers".
As I'm german, that is easy to figure for me, too.
As it just sounds "more german" if you say e.g. "thou goest" is "Du gehst".
10M massochists volunteering to play with that?

Did you actually ever read a peer reviewed article?
And did you grasp its contents?
It is the opposite around.
Spark runs by default on Hadoop, it was designed on top of Haddop.
Perhaps it can run on other things, too. I never saw one doing it, though.
What e.g. would be an example? Of such an "other file system"?
To much tech talk.
8) hu? who knows what that acronym means?
5) hu? sure, I prefer GIT, too. But your statement is just idiotic!

Obviously, smart ass.
So, what exactly is your question or problem?
Hm, I will remember that. I mean the chatting ...
Uh, and that reminds me to get rid of the drums.
Well, one of them has a sex life, the other one not :)
HAR HAR HAR HAR!

I for my part relax in her arms, cuddling with her, preparing for the next round.

I never was aksed to activate my dedvices ... :D
Perhaps I look more geeky than you and they knew my devices are always on
Yes and no.
