See my other post: At least a smartphone was a consolidation of communication and entertainment devices. The pebble is none of that.

Is that more a problem that your phone has crappy battery life? Mine charges whilst I'm asleep and lasts fine for the rest of the time. Also it fits in my pocket fine and is never …

Is having to pull your phone out of your pocket that bad? Do you even need to look at it unless it makes a loud noise at which point you can close to defer until later? Constant di…

Cookware has an established practical and has been with us in various forms for thousands of years so I think that's a poor analogy. The pebble demands your attention. That is all.…

I still can't justify anything better than my $10 Casio Bin Laden watch. There is literally nothing that has an advantage over it for me. Status and cost mean nothing. I think the …

Please finish the other books as well!

They're all a pain the ass. Even commercial stuff such as Proteus and Multisim. Then there's Mentor's offering which is barf . (I did a spot writing some workflow software for an e…

I appreciate the goal but I'd rather we started with an IP-free core manufactured by multiple fabs and work up from there. The Chinese got somewhere with this by ripping off MIPS b…

And the Streisand effect occurs again...

If only Windows Phone had a greater market share. Despite being a UNIX guy I quite like it plus according to my colleagues (both of which are iOS and Android defectors respectively…

Those are great features. However the objection people, including myself, have with PHP is that the legacy stuff is inconsistent junk. I still use it on occasion but it pains me.

I wouldn't say that. Subscriptions are far easier to take on the web. In app purchases are usually pretty optional as is content.

Funny :) As long as you hit middle C1 on every chord regardless of whether or not it's a duff chord or not... At least with vi, you can play one fingered and make an acceptable tun…

Thanks. Just did that on my FF 26.0 on windows and it passes now as well. Rather surprised it was dumping down TLS 1.0!

Perhaps your memories are things your parents said when you were 7 that you did when you were two as well? That's how I figure it works in my head.

Great. They taught computers to drive like a dick as well now...

At least one by the looks!

I moved off bigv to digital ocean. Management and billing are far better on DO.

Or provide no defaults therefore solving both problems.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Criticism_of_the_BBC Look at the specific examples section.

The thing with the BBC is that they just fail to report any stories their agenda doesn't agree with or summarise other news agencies' reports after the event.

They're close enough in round trip time for it to be indistinguishable for me on SSH. That is all.

I doubt this is possible. Every item that goes up is assembled and signed off piecemeal so every bit of hardware will be checked by multiple eyes. The buyer will have people on sit…

Quick check suggests £3.75 vs £57.29 a month there. I'd pay up to £12/month for FreeBSD as a privilege.
