It actually just looks like Microsoft still didn't see that the world is ready to move on from them at the 1st real opportunity and doesn't give a damn.
For instance Visual Studio 2015. You have to update the packages one by one.... manually... and download each runnable install file from the internet. It's absolutely ridiculous, how can anyone use that stuff? They didn't implement that basic feature that's standard in any IDE in Mac or Linux, updating. It's just crazy.
Yes, that's why we have much less crime and violent crime in Europe and still don't have capital punishment. I guess it's the same excuse you give to legally penalize drugs in the UAS when in some countries in EU we effectively proved that making its consumption legal is the best way to decrease its use and addiction.
We don't they they exist, they do actually and factually exist.
Bitcoin can make 7 transaction per second. Not for 1 person, or one business but for the all world. 7 transactions per second, that's it. Do you really think the world can work with 7 only transactions per second taking place?
More dumbfounding is that, the handful of Chinese miners that control the all bitcoin network (so much for the myth that bitcoin is decentralized), don't allow that value to be changed and not only kept the network locked by their mining power in this scenario, but they went out to DDOS anyone that tried to mine blocks with a different size, taking the internet down in entire towns to do so.

The problem in these instances is the one that is attacking all western society since the turn of the century. For some strange reason, people now think they have the right to feel offended and that people that offends them must be shut up
There is this sense of self entitlement fed by the media going around, that if someone says something against any particular aspect of some social justice cause, you deserve some kind of punishment. You are essentially bared from contesting any kind of argument about any aspect of say, feminism, black empowerment, religion and a few other. No matter how idiotic is the specific pro argument for one of those issues, if you point that out, you are automatically dismissed and any public forum will do its best to shut you up.
Seriously where did you go to get those ridiculous statements? The laws didn't change along the way. Apple thought they found a loophole and tried to exploit it, well, according to the law - i.e. the rulling of the courts - Apple was wrong, though luck. No new laws where passed along the way like you are implying.
Also it's quite interesting that you are taking sides with a bunch of billionaire pricks that hire a battalion of attorneys in order to try and find loopholes to avoid paying taxes while the common man has no way to escape them.
I don't know if you are the same "Anonymous Coward" answering above but you seem to be under the very wrong impression of what Apple is actually doing here and what those "tax exemptions" are supposed to cover.
Apple business here, is selling their products. Period. They don't do R&D in Europe, they don't produce their products in Europe and their job creation in here is minimal. This is not what the tax breaks are there for, obviously. Nothing grave would come to EU if Apple just went away except that consumers couldn't be buying their products here anymore.
We don't have "settlements" in EU like you do in the USA. When a case is presented to a legal court (consumer arbitral court is different) the matter can only get settled by the court itself, the parties cannot go around the court. The only thing they can do now it to appeal to an higher court.
So that's what counts has "harassment" in the pro radical feminist society now-a-days. The argument is tired but it doesn't make it less true: If the supervisor was an attractive guy or if she was interested in him, those exact same words would be perfectly acceptable.
So, the media that "keep the advertisers happy and avoid ticking off the huge corporation that owns you, your product and pays you expenses" is that same one that keeps telling the left wing narrative around?
I suppose it makes sense... somewhere in some alternate dimension.
That's not a "more important question" at all. Except from a small fringe that's very vocal in/. nobody really cares if it uses systemd. Even Linus Torvald is mostly fine with it, and so are the users of Linux in general.
Why? Windows is much, much, much, much more optimized to run in such low spec devices than Android. True, windows seriously lacks in apps, but the ones that exist run much better.
Windows runs way better in such a low spec mobile phone compared to Android.
Running Android 5 in my Moto G with 1GB RAM was hell, slow to a crawl after opening some apps or some browser tabs. Now imagine doing that in a 512MB phone like the Lumia 520.
Perhaps Jackson, instead of having so much trouble improvising, could just have sticked to the actual book, make only one movie and cut those stupid add ons he put there like that absurd romance between the dwarf and the elf.
But no, poor Jackson entered the project in the middle and since he didn't knew what to do, instead of using the actua source for all the material - aka the original novel - decided to come up is some half assed Hollywood ideias that ruined the film.
The performance per energy consumption still lags greatly behind NVIDIA offerings.
Besides that, there is CUDA, yes I know it's a closed standard but there is a reason most GPU computing libraries, specially in Deep Learning fields use preferably CUDA: it's just easier to get more performance out of it with less hassle.
If you just want to play games and electricity costs are not a concern to you (so, most teenagers I suppose) Radeon is ok, but if you are not in that category, I find it hard not to have to choose a GeForce.
1 - Like you just admitted, you won't get murdered for telling some unpleasant truth about a Christian religion in a Christian country. 2 - That's not even the issue. The issue is that you can get murdered for telling some unpleasant truth about Islam in a Christian country.
The average Muslim takes their religions as seriously as the average Christian these days.
That's actually wrong. Factually wrong, although it's an argument that being repeated all around against all data. As you can see, the "average" Muslim believes in capital punishment for Apostasy (leaving the faith of Islam) and more than the average believes that stoning to the death should be the penalty for adultery.
The data comes from the PEW research centre, not some nut-job right-wing organisation. Should also be noted that the extremist Muslim majority countries couldn't be analysed, so the real situation is even worst: http://www.pewforum.org/2013/0...
You are seriously telling us that you apply self censorship about telling the truth about any Christian religion for being afraid of being murdered? Really, you seriously telling us that?

save some taxpayers money (and use normal bullets, not the ones that cost more than feeding someone for 50 years).
If you live in EU, you should know we don't have life sentences here. Depends on the country, but maximum real sentence is about 25 years.
We don't they they exist, they do actually and factually exist.

First they mocked us...now Bitcoin is accepted everywhere! Even in apps!
Some people have a very limited concept of "everywhere".
Yes, that got me thinking. Kodi isn't supported in ODroid or if it is, it will drop quite some frames at 1080p from the look of it, right?

It baffles me that in this day and age people still keep mixing Communism with Socialism.
You clearly don't understand the concept of ruling.
Deep.
We would surely have a revolution and a civil war in Europe if we where not allowed to buy MacBooks and eat MacBurgers. Obviously.

Funny my PhD supervisor was a woman and I was actually forced to throw me research away (almost 2 years) and get a better supervisor.
Now, it was not due to harassment but due to her incompetence. But we can already see how the story would play out if the genders were inverted.
So that's what counts has "harassment" in the pro radical feminist society now-a-days. The argument is tired but it doesn't make it less true: If the supervisor was an attractive guy or if she was interested in him, those exact same words would be perfectly acceptable.

Sure, Peter, I really feel for you bro.

You are really not getting the point here.
