I helped my mother (74 years old at the time) install Debian in her new computer, through a voice-only call. I was surprised how easy it is to do it nowadays.
The idea is to have decentralized power. Imagine how cool would be to have little 30-years-lifespan nuclear reactors? (Something like what is described in The Martian.) But nooo, humans gotta be cunts, so no ponies for us.
Coincidentally, just today I had an issue that's only solvable by rooting the phone. It is a pretty stupid bug too, I want to connect through WiFi to an isolated LAN, but the device *requires* Internet access otherwise it auto-disconnects. The only way to change this behaviour is by changing a setting with adb, with su access, which I most probably won't be able to get (Galaxy S6 / T-Mobile locked).

Trump himself provided the evidence. He affirmed he fired Comey so the "russier" investigation would end quickly. That's obstruction of justice.
IMHO that's the least relevant part of his personality. What is worrisome is the scammer part. How many other presidents ran scams like Trump University?
The Constitution allows for the states to call a convention proposing an amendment, completely bypassing the Federal Congress. Five states have already passed bills calling for the convention, 29 more states are needed:
Update: I couldn't fix the shell extensions, so I gave up on Gnome (the alt+tab behavior was a deal-breaker) . I tried Cinnamon for the first time, and I was able to configure it just the way I need it. And Nemo has my beloved type-ahead, it is perfect! I guess I have to thank you, I was not planning on upgrading Gnome before your suggestion.:D
I wanted to upgrade my system* before I replied to you... I was using 3.18, now I've upgraded to 3.22: search still sucks. Before 3.6 it worked perfectly like I wanted, it emulated my terminal use case - I know there is a a folder named "stuff", so I type "cd s[tab][enter]" and there it, in less than half a second I'm there. With older nautilus I just typed "s[enter]" and there I was, same speed. But not anymore.
And I *did* report to the developers, like the hundreds of others who were sufficiently annoyed to voice their dissatisfaction. We were ignored. Now I rant on random websites, where people make a lot of assumptions about what others did or didn't.
* And now I'm back to fix all the gnome-shell extensions that stopped working, oh joy.
Awesome post, thanks. What about digital emulations of the analog effects? I implemented some filters for my guitar when I studied signal processing, and it was so much fun, I wish I had more time to kid around with it.
It seems it is you that are stuck in 1960, because connectionist techniques nowadays are nothing like that. And deep-learning has been breaking record after record, even achieving superhuman performance in some tasks. And deep-learning is just a smart math trick over the regular backprop algorithm, allowing more layers without degrading the error gradients. When the models that actually incorporate neuroscientific knowledge (current research) mature, expect even better performances.
And wtf, this "I tried once, I failed, I'll never try again" is surely a loser-talk.
Ah, that explains it... I haven't realized that was the origin of his statements, but I guess you're right. The irony in his "Oh so you know how the brain works?" is that I've actually been studying it for a long time, so yeah, I have a good idea about the generals.:p
But after the "Wow, when did you receive your Nobel?", it's easy to see how his brain works - it doesn't!:p
Since 2011, most of my reading is done in a Galaxy S. I read before I sleep, so I use amber text over a black background, with the dimmest light intensity available. I haven't found any better alternative to an AMOLED display, it is just excellent. I have a newer Acer smartphone, but its display sucks in comparison, at least in low light settings.
And for software, I can't recommend enough the Moon+ Reader app for Android, it has everything you need and the UI is perfect, imo. If any dev reads this, congrats, great job!:)
You only realize their benefit when later on you change something you thought completely unrelated, and the "useless" tests start failing. I had my ass saved a couple of times in situations like that.

Don't worry about memory, just add the following line to your CONFIG.SYS file:
device=himem.sys
Now you can use all that juicy memory over 640KB!

Great attitude, Mr. Khyspergers'. [/sarcasm tag for the *obviously* impaired]

Of course, they should just change the User-Agent to "Microsoft Edge" and the CPU consumption will drop to 1%.
Sure, Trump is an asshole

Can't deny that "calixit" has a nice ring to it!

Yes, but what about the nuclear?! And he's going to eliminate the Department of Environmental!

Please, do something if you can.
If only they could restore the type-ahead functionality they removed in 3.6, I would be satisfied. https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubu...

We tried neural nets back then. Didn't work.

You don't think at all, you're just a bunch of neural circuits.
