  2. Re:Along the theme... on Android KitKat Released · · Score: 1

    That money may be hard to come by during the Crunch

  3. Re:Where's the led notification? on Apple Unveils iPhone 5C, iPhone 5S · · Score: 1

    They're so over widgets, that they called them tiles, and filled your screen with them.

  4. Re:i like cyanogenmod..but... on Meet Focal, the New Camera App For CyanogenMod · · Score: 1

    If none are officially supported through Cyanogenmod, you can bet that they are not being pushed updates from the original manufacturers either. The built in Android camera app has made several giant strides since 4.1. The 2.3 camera, not so much.

  5. Re:My theory on Windows 8 Killing PC Sales · · Score: 1

    Why would you have a requirement of "No touch"? You don't have to use it, but specifically asking for it to not exist seems silly, you may change your mind further down the line.

  6. Re:My theory on Windows 8 Killing PC Sales · · Score: 2

    Windows 7, Visual Studio 2012, and a couple office programs where simply crushing the 4GB that came installed on my work laptop. Upgrading to 8, made the near constant moves to swap almost completely disappear. That being said 8GB on my home computer running Mint, almost never get's anywhere near fully utilized unless I'm running games.

    There have been some attempts. Look up the McLean Monocycle...

    Related question: If you have something like an Amazon e-gift card emailed to someone, how do you know it was received and not simply eaten by a spam filter?

    Specific to an Amazon e-gift card. Amazon sends you an e-mail when the recipient redeems the card.

  10. What standards? on Standards Make Rapid Software Releases Workable · · Score: 1

    The problem isn't really the browsers, it's the standards that can't keep up. If the browsers had to wait for the standards to be finalized, IE 6 would still be relevant. If the specification is incomplete what are you supposed to do, watch your users switch to a different browser, or implement the proposed feature in the best way you know how. Maybe the standards need to move to a rapid release cycle?

  11. Re:Not always possible to install more ram on Ask Slashdot: Best Small-Footprint Modern Browser? · · Score: 2

    Have you tried putting more in? The laptop I'm typing this one has 1 slot and officially maxes out at 2GB of RAM. I put a 4GB chip in it anyway, and it booted and recognized it just fine.

  12. Re:Qwerty in the living room on What Kinect Could Be, But Probably Won't · · Score: 1

    I run XBMC with just a keyboard all the time. I have a Logitech DiNovo Mini in the living room, and I almost never use the mouse mode, which leaves me with just the functionality of the keyboard. The only real issue I've run into is that the Mini doesn't have function keys. So I couldn't close the Netflix plugin, autohotkey fixed that right up.
