Right. I'm the submitter and also later realized that Slashdot had eaten the character. The person's correct name can be read from his EU Commission homepage.
I have always thought that carrying a competitor's bag is actually a good thing: it tells the store that the customers are aware of competitors, which pushes to make this store better too.
I love that website. Tuck the laptop name and "site:notebookcheck.net" to Google and you have good chances of finding a very detailed review of that machine. All the way down to measuring display contrast ratio and color reproduction.
Also Microsoft's Jim Radigan held a cool presentation in GoingNative 2013 where he reveals some optimization tricks done by the MSVC++ compiler. It also shows some screenshots where Windows is being compiled on a monster multi-core machine.
The desktop experience under Linux is still better than of PC-BSD. I did some experimenting with PC-BSD and everything had a bit crusty and unpolished feeling. The robustness of BSDs is of course very good thing, but I need a good desktop too. Of course the PC-BSD guys have made installing the desktop much more easier, so they still get a plus from me.
Sorry for the Seinfeldism but how is this high tech, geek/nerd related? This is saber rattling. Now if you had maybe a science connection like "China Air Defense System Causes Jellyfish Bloom in China Sea!" or "China Air Defense Grab Causes Large Tsunami" then I might be interested.
If it's completely anonymous, it's a too good vehicle for criminals and all sorts of underground activities. I actually want a monetary system that is trackable.
Here's some nice tips which won't ultimately solve the problem but which will greatly improve your privacy.
1) Use common sense. Try to imagine which routes your data will take and which providers will it meet. Will those parties snoop on your data (datamining or wiretapping)? What kind of privacy policies do they have?
2) Use encryption in as many places as you can. HTTPS and IMAPS are good start.
3) Do not put important data into services provided by Google, Facebook or other datamining companies. If possible, switch your e-mail account from GMail to your home country ISP or other locally produced service.
4) Consider using Tor for crucial communications. If you need maximum safety, do not send your message through Internet and all.
5) If you need maximum safety, use an open source operating system. For example, NSA may have talked in backdoors to Windows and OSX.
What paragraph? And secondly, I wasn't talking about Carmack's role in Doom 4, but the status of the project in general. I didn't see any announcement that the whole project is discontinued yet.

Thank you for this.
The market is still there, you just have to adapt to the different conditions.
Doctor, I'm completely confused and can't get up in the morning at all. It all happened one day without a warning.

Who mods this garbage up?
You can bet it's not me. I almost get sex more often than Slashdot mod points.
>> its annoying habit of occasionally "calling home" to check licensing information
Calling home for the latest NSA exploits to inject in to your application? /tinfoil-hat-no-so-paranoid-these-days-dept
They are also trying to ram down the users' throats a sign-in feature with VS2013 too.

and a powerful OpenGL ES GPU.
Which OpenGL ES version?
If you believe Apple aren't doing precisely the same thing, then I have a shiny white featureless brick to sell you
That is only speculation. Prove me that Apple does cheating. For Samsung and HTC their cheating has been proven.
Sadly, they seem to have gone with the low-frequency PWM route for their laptop screens.
That is a very good point too.
We still do not surely know who is Satoshi Nakamoto.

Then submit a better article. :)
Why giving it up?
As a sidenote, HSL has also set up a live map of the Helsinki trams buzzing around.
In boundaries of my imagination, the user account password is pretty much the only private data that Twitter stores.

What do you 'muricans plan to do about the problem? Why are you already not starting a revolution to turn down NSA?

Yes. The book includes a written contribution from Woz, so he's recognized at least to some extent.
Not necessarily. It's not just a shadow copy of RAM, but some kind of multipurpose pool. We don't exactly know what the CPU does with it.
Interesting, a spam message which actually tries to tap something from the context of the discussion.
