There isn't a unicode problem. Unicode would immediately become a problem if it was implemented. Slashdot routes around this problem by not rolling out unicode support.
Personally, I'd like Slashdot to be restricted to 7-bit ascii.
We need examples to be given of this desktop software that has 'a few hundred thousand users' that features are added to ever year.
Just a few examples of software would be helpful. I can't think of anything with those sorts of numbers, myself. Much desktop software either has a huge userbase or is tiny.
Most of Apple's revenue now comes from what we refer to as gadgets. Business news stories now start out sentences with "Gadget maker Apple has announced that... "
Out here where I live, the only ones spying on me outside are rabbits, birds, and the occasional squirrel (more so now that the walnut trees have matured).
We still have a rather robust independent media in the U.S. and any hint that a sizeable percentage of American workers were being shuttled off to a gulag would be a big news item.
What the heck. You won't learn how to be a good software developer by taking some ROTE class at an 'academy'. First off, just the terminology used: "code" should be a giveaway.
Just like in the 1980's when 'Computer Science Degree' was something that drone dullards 'took' in college 'because there was money in it', these Code Academies are mills to produce useless drones. Credentialed useless drones, of course, but that isn't much.
You've got to be kidding. If you're a regular smoker, you are correct. But a non-smoker can gwt one hell of a buzz, and it's a pleasant one, smoking once or twice a month. When I smoke my tobacco pipe a few days in row the craving surfaces and I know it''s time to lay off for at least week or two. But the buzz once in awhile is rather nice.
Harley is moving some production out of the US because non-US customers are a growth area for them. US H-D customers are in decline, while in the EU there is growth. American millineals are not motorcycle buyers. They buy shitty scooters with two cycle engines.
To be perfectly honest, if you go out and google for news on Tesla, the people who are trashing it are in serious short positions.
To be perfectly honest, if you went out in the street polling random people about Tesla, the majority of them probably don't care about Tesla. The vapor is apparent to a lot of the public.
In the BBS days almost all accounts were local. Yes, in the later period there were things like fidonet, but for the most part people couldn't afford long distance connect calling, so people like me would get a second phone line and hang a spare computer off it running a board. People all knew each other and in the case of one board community I was part of, we started playing softball every other Sunday. People still went by their 'handles' at the softball games, incidentally.
My board even ended up hosting a bowling league. Not a team, a whole league of teams. Online was different in the 80s.
You also, Bruce, are the person with whose name other people used to make shill accounts with similar looking names, and made such a big deal about it that slashdot changed the interface so that UIDs were made visible.
Before you made the big deal, UIDs were invisible and people here were not aware of them.
"Thanks" for forcing a little bit more elitism here than there was before, to protect your good name. Protect that brand.
Google wants the cows to happily graze about, and not get alarmed, for that is known to sour their milk.
They own big chunks of the web, which have, you might have noticed, little scripts on the pages that point to Google entities. So of course Google benefits from end-to-end security. They've got it locked up, now it's time to lock it down.
Who am I a shill for? Is there somebody I can ask to cut me a check? I'm all ears.
They should simply block access to /. for mobile safari.
just fix the goddamned unicode problem.

It isn't a phrase that necessarily calls all indians savages. It calls out the particular indians who were coaxed into savagery by the Britons.
Not before she makes a backup copy on Carlos Danger's laptop.
Don'tt be a coward. Blaspheme Allah, too. Do it on the street right in front of a mosque/
NZ is already addressing the problem of rich US natives coming in to gentrify New Zealand.
The shocking thing to me is that the $700 model is being considered a 'low end' choice.
They really do have a stringer of suckers floating alongside the boat.

No, why would I care? It's academic, though, because the UID fix is complete.
Envy for not being Bruce Perens? Have you heard his voice narration in 'Revolution OS'???
Golly. You could have even done that in your rant/comment!

Where is this gulag?

I come to a complete stop at stop signs and people often react badly. It throws the 'roll through' drivers off their rhythm.
you can't really get high off tobacco.

Actually, I have a DEC logo'd Pentium 1 system in my collection. It has fairly high build quality. It's not as well made as my MicroVAX 3100, though.
Maybe they are one of those people who puts a clear plastic cover over the plate, for god knows what reason.

It's a 2006 model, that I bought in 2006.

Relative to the population of automobiles in use by the public, the model S isn't 'a few.' It is a very very few.
