What do we do for a commercial stunt. We had 720p for 720x1280 We had 1080p fir 1080x1920 And now "5K" for 5120x2880? Is the screen supposed to be used in a "portrait" setting? It's fine if you work in IT, you see w

Well, looking at the video, 11mn in, i see a weird system simplification: * 6 = 6a + 7h + i * 4 = 4a + 5h + i get "reduced" to: * 1 = a + 1.16h + i * 1 = a + 1.25h + i I wonder why it isn't i/6 and i/4... basic

I won't have a problem thinking it's due to a bad actor. I will doubt it's the one the US are pointing at, though.

Ah, the famous "Only doing its job" excuse. Yes, their job is shitty, but when your job is to bully people (by phone or otherwise), don't expect rainbows and unicorns.

If it come to that, I suspect Duckduckgo will be kind enough to point me in the right direction. Since ebooks are zip with a well-defined file hierarchy, I may even be able to hack the unnecessary bits to achieve freedom on my own. Nice t

From an user perspective, those walled garden for ebooks are a real problem. Since I like to have a paper copy of my books, I have a working solution, not perfect though: * If there is a paper version, buy the paper version. * If ther

Would be nice to add a full-offline option. Don't take it wrong, but I'm getting wary of services offering to store my data online for free, especially when I don't know how / if it intend to make money. Looks good thoug

Saying that "It's easy to solve, so if the restaurants haven't yet, it's probably not a problem" is pretty bad as excuses go. The point isn't that it can't be solved, the point is that if it need solving,

No way it's there, the Stasi did have file on most citizens, but it wasn't as well indexed, comprehensive, and easily searchable as what current government 'security' agencies have.

There is a market, or should I say: there are markets: * people who often broke their screens (my current boss is at 3 screens in 2 years, and counting) * enthusiast, early adopters, developpers,... * There is probably a good way to mark

Wow, I was quite taken aback, expecting to read about al-quaida, got robin hood instead. Still, it is only one source, but having this version of this story of those so-called pirate is definitely a plus.

The objective of basic income is not to increase everyone's wealth, but to increase overall quality of life. Restaurants wouldn't disappear, but it would be a bit more expensive. Also, I suppose restaurants which treat their perso

Just to get your numbers straight: EU => 507 million people. Also, when you look graph ², you can wonder how much of that is due to recession. (found at random via google search, so I don't know how trustable it is, but seems legit.
