Amazon tying their well developed services to their tablet makes it a well developed media content device. For example I can search for music and make playlists all I want with my Prime Membership. It's playing in my shop all day. Being far from stock Android is a feature and I like Alexa. Granted, I can see why it would be useless without Prime. We'll see if BN can pull something off. Stock Android is a tight market.
Contrary to what many in this thread are assuming, homeopathic "remedies" do not contain anything but water. Homeopathy is based on the crackpot idea that you can take something, potentially poisonous, dilute it, then dilute it again. and again until nothing is left other than pure water that happens to retain the "molecular memory" of only medicinal properties. It makes no sense. At least with "herbs and shit" you have actual chemical components that humans have been screwing around with for thousands of years. This does not change the fact that many so called homeopathic remedies are marketed as such while containing something other than water. Typically it is pure grain alcohol. I worked at a few GNC stores back in the 90's. On one day my boss and I got drunk off of a few drops of some flu "remedy". I made like $700 in commision that day.

If Apple's user base does not call them out on charging $149 to fix a device that shipped defective to a point damaging to the company then perhaps a lot of the fun that has been poked at iPhones users over the years is true.
Having only now ever heard of this OnePlus company, I thought this was an ad at first. Then I compared the specs to the price. This definitely qualifies as a story.
As I read about this issue apparently being isolated to China, a thought comes to mind. On the one hand hand, Western consumers will happily flip the fuck out and practically beg Apple to take money they should be putting in a savings instead of wasting it on this years almost the same damn thing. In China there is an industry that has sprung up around the iPhone 6 where consumers are saying, "Why do we want this for anything but vanity? This is a waste of money under consideration of my perfectly fine 4 or 5..." The industry that has sprung up as a consequence of that reasonable thinking is an iPhone cosmetic makeover that takes an old iPhone and makes it look like the latest model. This allows for some vanity factor without having to feel like the classic fool parting with money.
As reasonable as that seems, perhaps what we are seeing is that backfiring.
It always boggles my mind when people who abuse computers for financial gain face harsher sentences than so many rapist and murderers (not exclusive). Then I truly consider the reasons why and I choose to remain boggled.
Can we stop moving some of this off world yet? According to Sci-fi it will buy us some time. If we have a strong GA Authority that is. But seriously, can we either do that or leave this fucking planet by the few best (not me) and become the survivors already. I don't see many possibilities that are not bound to fail. Mars it is, send the best only and cross your fingers.
I live in KC and the the utility pole where the fiber stops is two houses up and so everyone two houses up has and has had fiber for a year or two. The curled up cable has been sitting there for ages...
But those things are still retailing as high as $299. I use its features pretty extensively, a handful apps both built in and downloaded are fairly useful and all-in-all it's a neat little toy, but can't justify it costing more than $99.
Huh? There is no "steam" molecule so I am not sure what you are getting at. I was simply stating that water is water without thinking so hard over a trollish slashdot post while then calling your reply out as being pedantic.Ya dig?
Honestly I merely saw an opportunity to say "pure dihydrogen monoxide" - Gas, condensed. It's still the same molecule just in a different state. Yes, steam is invisible. Thermal Brownian motion and so on and so forth. If I were an actual nucluer ---G Bush Joke engineer, then perhaps I would be so pedantic. My dad would, but his been an R&D Chemist since forever.
What, pray tell, do you think is coming out of those towers? It's 100% pure dihydrogen monoxide in the form of steam in order to turn turbines which then generate electricity. Although I really am curious, what do you actually think is coming out of those towers? Gluten? I honestly want to know how you think a nuclear reactor generates electricity. Where do they get these people? Probably the likes of Harvard Business School, University of Michigan—Ann Arbor, MIT, Texas A&M is also a great school for advanced study in Nuclear Engineering. I really truly want to know what was or wasn't going through your head with such bold and self-assured statement. Also: Some light reading on the subject
But seriously, what is it that you though you understood?
"AI is anything like its creators it would spend most of it free time trolling/."
Shit, you figured me out.
Are you M or F? Hot grits. Natalie Portman The dead skull of Jesus Christ. This Windows drools, Linux rules! Macs are better! 90% of YouTube comments. I can't spell butt dont realse it comment
But seriously, if you want to do some trolling for a good cause, this is the number of one of those Indian scam outfits: 1 844 896 0351 - if they announce they support Apple products, simply state that you got a pop up saying you have a Windows virus and to call this number, they will xfer you to their "Windows Department". Do your due diligence. This is an easy one.
The ports tree is miraculous. It eliminates a lot of admin work you have to deal with in Linux land. It also has a very solid implementation of ZFS, which can be life saving. Also, the layout of the file system is both sane and statically consistent over time. I could carry on for awhile about why I feel it is a superior server OS. Honestly if you don't get it then do your own research on it, contemplate you favorite services and give it a whirl. You will be doing yourself a favor. I assure it is not a religious thing.
Why use Linux? Because as much as I love FreeBSD as a hardware barebones headless server for this and that, dealing with hardware driver issues for a fully featured desktop ranges between a pain in the ass and impossible. Otherwise I would be using the PC-BSD variant as a desktop productivity OS over Linux.

You didn't hang out long enough. Trying figuring out how to earn "achievements".
Let's replace the whole clusterfuck with a... FireCloud!

I know that guy, he lives a few houses down. I try to avoid him though, he's really strange.

But now having looked I know the best standing desk to buy. I wonder if they can recommend a cold coffee brewer? Ahh... that is what Amazon is for.
Concerning my more recent reply, it would be like you replying "but there is a steam molecule and it is water!"
Huh? There is no "steam" molecule so I am not sure what you are getting at. I was simply stating that water is water without thinking so hard over a trollish slashdot post while then calling your reply out as being pedantic.Ya dig?
Honestly? I never once associated a flying car with a human pilot.
The non-Linux world will now take Linux seriously.
