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 not be a huge surprise either.

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.com knocked off and improved.

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 the upstream is not responsive, that's different. The

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 display. The thread aspect is neat however it com

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 display AND the size of font relative to the reader's a

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 of costly issues.

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

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 the 60's. In LA, it's mostly systematic ha

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 and other privileges.

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 it was a personality conflict). One positive note: most org

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 not a fan and impaired judgement isn&#

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.

Oh, fair enough. Not all people want the same things, and their needs change as a moving target with stages of life. Someone people live more externally while others don't really care so long as enough of Maslow's HoN is met. I

The Ninth Circuit effectively struck down Venice's enforcement of giving tickets to people whom appeared to be living in their vehicles. That case is why Palo Alto backed off on its towing and ticketing campaign. LA hates homeless pe

Higher syrup ratio or less water pressure results in more syrup, and therefore sweeter. McDonald's ostensibly aims for uniformity, but gross underpayment and poor treatment of workers leads to low goodwill and less caring for doing th
