The difference being WoW requires massive bandwidth to both download its updates and play. Not all Win10 users are gamers with Google Fiber.

Explanations aside, if in the slight chance it's workably better than ion thrusters for certain applications, that's great. If it turns out to be snake oil or a hoax, that would no…

http://waiter.com has made a few cool megabucks in SV. The original was http://waitersonwheels.com , which I used in the 1990's. It started as a catalog-based service, which waiter…

If a patch can be made by upstream in good faith to addressa vuln before CRD, embargoing until after its users have had a reasonable chance to deploy it is a very good thing. If th…

Only in the Sharknado sequel.

Interesting, reminds me of the graffiti robot for some reason . [0] Would be a neat follow on project to rapidly "print" via an actual loom to weave an entire fabric panel as the d…

I agree. I think there are two distinct usability issues to address: content size and font size. That is, how much real estate the virtual viewport occupies in proportion to the di…

They do because they don't want the person to cause a scene. Most restaurants feed homeless people if they ask nicely too. It's not so much a kindness thing as a shrewd prevention …

This would require applying a patchset to the political-moral operating system. Bernie Sanders 2016. ;)

"Equal protection" redress perhaps?

Robin laid an egg (Unfortunately, the melody is protected too because the parody defense requires a legitimate (subjective interpretation) parody.)

The issue is the perception of commonness assumes that it's obviously public domain when it's not. Another nail in the coffin of ridiculous IP trolls.

This implies that any public performance on a stage of Happy Birthday to You recorded or not, is subject to licensing fees or fines. This is bloody nuts. Enough is enough!

Public bathrooms in NE, BE, FR, GB are paid per use and far between. My mom has stories of jumping under the stalls if they didn't have the shilling, sixpence or whatever it was in…

At first glance, I thought the title read: "Fix Reddit with Bacon " but no, decentralized reddit sounds like a better idea... maybe until figuring how how to distribute moderation …

Normally I'm not one for ad hominems but he comes off as a huge poser dbag. The only things missing were the duck grimace and Donald Trump pluging his 2016 campaign.

They're profiteers off deaths, abuse and repression of people, plain and simple. The whole lot of these folks should be in jail.

A nice way of saying the Greek govt was mostly Idiocracy (2006) incarnate. Sounds like there might be a leadership vacuum and hard, effective work ethic may not be appreciated (or …

Usually about a month or two. A radar and/or email can help.

Strawman fallacy without evidence and denial of pragmatic holistic mix of power generation sources. There is no perfect panacea power generation; each has its tradeoffs. Solar, geo…

The issue of bringing anything like Docker (app virtualization) to RHEL/CentOS/SLC/CERN/Rocks 6.x is supporting an old kernel, adding custom-compiled kernel modules or compiling a …

Actually, since this is a pseudonym, I've had sex in public a several times and never had a problem. In fact, it was in one of (Saratoga, Los Gatos, Los Altos) wealthy communities …

That's obvious and I didn't just fall off the turnip truck today. It's not even a concern for me as I don't drink, smoke or use drugs... not as a moralism bumpersticker thing, just…

Threat fatigue and it's in a category of "too terrible for most people to think about, so they'd rather stick their heads in the sand." Props to @netik.
