    Yields. Only the best chips will run at say, 0.7 volts vs 0.9.

    You've played rock paper scissors right? It's not much more complicated than that. Surely you aren't so dumb as to not understand basic concepts ;)

  3. Pesticides, GMO's, the face a hospital visit will bankrupt you, artificial sugars that cause cancer, all the damned drugs urinated into the water supply. This isn't fucking rocket science, america is fucked.

    Shill, Shill, Shill, Shill, Shill, Shill, Shill, Shill, Shill, Shill, Shill, Shill, Shill, Shill, Shill, Shill, Shill, Shill, Shill, Shill, Or a distinct case of stockholm syndrome. Linux is way more stable than windows on my laptop, for any purpose. I have more games than I have time to play on steam on Linux. I have more software for things i need, and they're all an apt-get and 10 second install away, with NO BLOAT. No pesky flash installer trying to get me to convert to mormonism or whatever it does these days with it's adware install. Ubuntu exposes the features you need and has been stable for years. the last few releases have been BORING and that's a GOOD thing. Nothing's changed.

  6. Nobody in their right mind would go for a 30% payment processor. Square only takes 2-3%

  7. I went through several phones while owning a 98 civic. We don't replace our cars every two years like you cellphone upgrade cucks.

    Then they should reduce the number of platforms and start upstreaming their driver code into the base kernel.

  10. Hillary is more republican than Nixon was.

  11. That burn was so sick, it infected the world and ports were closed off.

  12. Apple is copying...Lenovo? on Apple To Launch Thinner, Lighter MacBook Pro Models With OLED Touch Bar, Touch ID In Fall (9to5mac.com) · · Score: 4, Informative

    Lenovo tried getting rid of F-keys with a touch bar in the X1. It failed SPECTACULARLY. I suspect the same will happen to Apple here. Professionals use F-keys. A lot. and not being able to touch type them is a glorious, horrible, pain in the ASS.

  13. Re:Get rid of iPhones, too on Windows Phone Market Share Sinks Below 1 Percent (theverge.com) · · Score: 1, Insightful

    Most android phones are outdated, can't be patched, are security nightmares, and overall suck. Short of buying a nexus (which nobody does)....not so much. Even my old iPhone 5 is still kicking ass and taking names on the buttfuckingly latest firmware.

  14. YO on Windows Phone Market Share Sinks Below 1 Percent (theverge.com) · · Score: 3, Funny

    2016 is the year of Windows Mobile! Let's make this thing happen!

    This attitude, right here, is why capitalism is so goddamned sociopathic. "just sell out. we'll feed you. Lower your standard. be treated like shit. HAVE FOOD.. FOOD FOOD FOOD. WORK WORK WORK."

    hey at least if I litter, i'm creating a job for that person.

  18. Because whatever ancient version of android you're running has more security holes than swiss cheese.

  19. Re:The opposite is true on Opera Adds Free VPN-Client With Unlimited Usage To Its Desktop Browser · · Score: 1

    I pay for a VPN that supports openVPN, and they take bitcoin. If you are using a free service, you are the product. They can MITM your traffic as it comes out of their end of the tunnel, sniff it, route it, inject ads into it, anything. It's a security risk of the highest order. (technically, a paid service can do these things as well, but if they were caught they'd have their reputation run into the ground and go under.)

  20. Re:Like HolaVPN and Zenmate? on Opera Adds Free VPN-Client With Unlimited Usage To Its Desktop Browser · · Score: 5, Insightful

    Fact of life: if you aren't paying for something, YOU are the product.

  21. The opensuse installer defaults to ZFS for /home....

    The first amendment only protects you from government. Sanders campaign is not a government entity and can act as they are acting within their rights. It's up to a court to decide the outcome, and THAT COURT can not prevent speech, but can uphold trademark.

    Devs lie through their teeth on android review replies. I don't trust them at all.
