  1. Why do you think they're ditching Intel for ARM?

    Good question. Why would anybody think that?

  2. Re:Home, Stocks, News and Voice Memo!! on Apple Brings iOS Apps Into Mac, But Won't Merge Platforms (cnet.com) · · Score: 1

    Things have clearly changed. Back when I had an iPod Touch it wasn't possible to remove icons you didn't want. You had to shove them into a folder and put it in a corner of a page somewhere.

  3. No, it will just be coded to trigger on a set of keywords. Things like 'demonstration' 'progressive' 'rally' 'liberty' and 'protest.' Also a list of drug culture words, in regions where that is required by the authorities. When the electronics is in place and operating to parse all sound, you're correct that not all sound will be flagged and uploaded.

    Nice ditty.

    I just posted my comment because nothing at all has changed with regard to the BSD operating systems. They are all robust and ongoing projects.

    Is anybody else wondering who will get the gold metal in the bumper car event?

    They probably have a SomethingKit to replace it.

    But come on. OpenGL is a nih thing.

    There are plenty of other OSes that will run fine on that system.

  8. Most Apple customers have moved on to consumer devices.

    The whole scheme is lost in a hanging folder in a file cabinet in some part of the Apple facility that doesn't have to do with consumer products and mobile devices.

  10. Re: Can I have "low power mode" all the time? on Apple Unveils iOS 12 (apple.com) · · Score: 1

    Apple needs to keep working on their propritary bluetooth extensions. They need a 'works better with Apple logo to slap onto the more expensive bluetooth gadgets.

  11. Re: Waze on CarPlay! on Apple Unveils iOS 12 (apple.com) · · Score: 1

    Android attracts innovative developers. Apple attracts greedy developers.

    And if Android didn't exist Apple would need to invent it, because Apple will never and could never support more than about 20% of a market segment. They rely on an elite cultish marketing method to overcharge a small segment of the market, and keep their overpaying customers inside a velvet rope.

    Because Apple wants to sell an Ipad to every member of the family.

    And why shouldn't GP commentator br able to conduct whatever sort of political campaign, even one directed at American voters, from his home country outside the US? Are we going to set up a great firewall that blocks out foreign political advocacy?

    Giving him refuge has been a good deal for certain US political factions. Look how much damage to the Democrats turning him loose in the US has resulted in.

  15. Now? For the First Time?!?? on Zuckerberg Grilled At Angry Facebook Shareholder's Meeting (mercurynews.com) · · Score: 2

    Facebook has posted guidelines on content moderation, now, for the first time? That kind of incompetence borders on being liable. Why have there not ALWAYS been formal guidelines?

  16. Re: Descent was headache fuel. on 'Descent' Creators Reunite For a New Game Called 'Overload' (steampowered.com) · · Score: 1

    I played Descent a few times before deciding the nausea wasn't worth it. I had previously played Doom and Wolfenstein 3D all the way through. I didn't play FPSs again until Quake.

    I played a lot of Heretic and Hexen, too.

    Descent was just something I categorized as disliking and skipped.

    OpenBSD is not dead in any aspect. It isn't chained into place and owned by a commercial entity that controls access to it. Only in the mind of a commercially besotten chattel slave does that make it dead. Fuck off, lying crapflooder. Just fuck off.

    It might mar your paint job.

    On your network. How much wiring do you own?

    It reminds me of my 10base5 network that I fiddled around with in the 90's to learn some networking technology. I had four or five 3c503 boards and a pair of 3c505s. My network reached from the 50 ohm terminator on one end of the coax to the one at the other end. Your network is probably of a similar size, though the coax topology is now obsolete.

    My stance is that if noscript breaks a site, it is up to me to decide if I want to let that page run scripts. Almost always I just navigate away or close the tab.

    Sorry, web 'coders.' Write code for a real platform.

  22. You can run Firefox instead of Chrome on your Android device, too. I have come to like Opera more than FF lately, though.

    So sorry if your gadget is an Apple, though.

    Google doesn't need to participate in the tablet market. They just need to stay out of the way, because there are four or five decent vendors selling a whole range of devices.
