What's really scary is having 2 Germans having a go at your democracy. Who knows how it'll turn out.

I knew USA will get a crappy president after Apple released its crpppiest MacBook Pro. It was bound to happen. Good luck USA, you truly deserve him. We might check on you again in 4 years, if there's anything left.

What a sad and pathetic excuse for discrimination based on culture and values. You're not only generalizing you seem to be in denial. Pay a visit to any popular vacation holiday in Spain or Portugal and test for yourself who are the lo

Same goes to many parts of the USA. Many of these populations are probably Drumpf voters. Many never had a passport issue and believe the US is the "greatest nation on earth". Many don't speak a second language, not sure exac

Drumpf is like AIDS. Like with AIDS, Drumpf's presence in the media will force the public, I hope, to confront racism, in the way AIDS forced everyone to start talking more frankly about sex. Drumpf's neo-nazi following (and the m

I find #PrayForParis particularly cynical because we are in the mess we are because of, mainly, two evangelical christians' little crusade in the middle east, Bush and Blair. Which not only were never put on trial for war crimes commit

Why would you go this route though? Unless you must do .NET professionally, there's no real reason for devs these days to use anything Windows. It just makes everything much more complicated, and many compromises because of platform re

That's not the point. This is about people switching to Wintel from MacBook (assuming they didn't buy a MacBook pro just to install Windows). Developer that use Mac/OS X use it because it's a UNIX machine, so moving to n

Any idea what ide/editor Linus is using?

by boards2x 11y ago
Yea, right. Maybe if it had OS X or Linux on it? I'm sure the hardware is ok, but at least developers need a POSIX compliant environment, and Microsoft does not have anything much to offer these days. It's a new world.

I agree. I now have NixOS on an older (2011) MacBook, which seems to work flawlessly. There's an issue with iSight built-in camera, and sound, but I didn't spend time trying to figure it out. Installation was a breeze and everythi

I've switched from brew recently. It (Nix) provides a much more pleasant experience on Linux/NixOS itself. On OS X, like right now, after switching to El Capitan, you begin to see the disadvantages. In fact any major change in som

There's also a corrupt regime that's more interested in revenue generation (shopping malls and restaurants) more than people management and control. I'd think that for such an important event, there should be no other interes

For me it has always been vimscript vs (emacs) lisp. I like to be able customize and not be restricted by a somewhat cryptic and inaccessible language. With evil mode you get a perfect compromise (depending on what you use such a text edito

Hilarious. Spam is strictly prohibited, while hate-speech is tolerated, unless inciting. spam must be lethal. Anywho, I've never liked Reddit and like it even less seeing what's going in there. >> These types of content are

That's exactly my point. It's terrorism. But when it's not initiated by muslims it's simply never called that.

I think the greek's demands that Germany will pay back for what they've stolen during WWII (forced to pay the cost of the savage occupation) was important, especially as a reminder now that we see history repeating itself as if no

One way to reform Reddit is to not allow white suprimist terrorist groups, or any other, for this matter to exist there. It has nothing to do with free speech and it seems one sided right, when it applies to Christian's hate towards ev

Not if it runs Windows. That sorts of kills the idea (which companies like canonical and others are already playing with). I think though that Apple had a more practical approach in hand-off, where the system don't converge rather each

I'm actually not surprised. I've always had the impression that Australia is rather conservative and backward looking. Not that their treatment of refugees, or, on the other hand, the pathetic incident like the recent one with Joh

The Israeli education ministry recently launched a new site, in which they've used stock photos of, mostly, Nordic looking children and families. Israel is a melting pot. Eastern Europeans, North African and near eastern Jews, and rec

Find it shameful that even though it seems most of the developers are clearly non-white (see about-us), they use standard stock images of Caucasians. I would never buy a product promoted this way.

That's just being cynical. Israeli national sport is to point out Israeliness/jewishness (two completely different things, IMHO) of anything that smells of success. We love to do this when it's positive, we try to hide it whe

Must say, as an Israeli myself, I'm embarrassed. I've never heard of the company before but knew they were Israelies when I saw the names involved. Just goes to show that exploitation, not (jewish) "genius", is behind mo
