A very quick glance suggests to me that the only thing C++ specific there is the filename extension (although a C compiler would do a more thorough check than I do; and faster, even!)

Vertical centering has been relatively easy since CSS 2.1 (Table model); flexbox of course offers much more than that. Flexbox may be finalized and unchangeable, if only because so many browsers already support it unprefixed (as support for

It isn't actually very old – not much older than current releases on other supported platforms, because quite often security bugs affect it as well, and Adobe updates it as well. Adobe has promised to support the NPAPI Linux plug-in fo

I didn't see anyone broadcasting their porn habits. OP only mentioned searching for porn; not which kind of porn, or whether he had downloaded it in the past.

I don't think any of the founding members (some, or all of which have served time in jail) are involved in running the site (or have been in years) – at least not officially.

Really? Hardly any? I would consider it rude not to offer free restroom in a shopping centre, although it's far too common in a fast-food joint (they aren't really any better than the ones that are truly public.)

The Apple reference sound less like a business plan, and more like typical hype of Apple exceptionalism. Apple makes the top dollar by selling devices with a nice profit margin. Would they really want to add several hundred dollars to their

The Nokia platform would be that which we used to call Maemo in the past (currently Mer, behind Sailfish OS). Nokia no longer uses it.

To be precise, Microsoft didn't buy Nokia's brand for use in phones, they licenced it, for about a year for smartphones and a decade for the so-called feature phones.

> They just use contract manufacturers just like Apple does. They do more than that; they have outsourced also the business execution (i.e. including selling, warranties, etc.) of the device to Foxconn. They just share in the revenue by

Certainly you cannot. However, even the connector receptacle resembles Lightning ports. There's a perfectly reasonable reason for that, though. The design seems to have avoided most (or any) angles, which makes the receptacle rounded,

I doubt that, considering it's lacking the Apple home key. Anyway, apart from specs, to me it really looks more like a bigger iPhone 6(+) than an iPad mini. I'm not saying it's not influenced by Apple's design, but TBH t

Yes, a great deal. Nokia is still an independent company, even though it sold a division of theirs to Microsoft a while back. Microsoft also bought a license to the Nokia brand on select products for a set period.

So is GCC. Perhaps it's still one less compiler to deal with, if they don't need GCC on any platform any more.

Browsers have scrolled less than 100% since forever, but there are differences. Most noticeably, Firefox scrolls (or used to scroll) more than Chromium, and has problems with content hiding more often.

I happen to like many of the New York Times articles that "mess" with your scrolling (that is, use the position changes to trigger events). To me, they somewhat resemble magazine articles with full page images in them, and I don&#

Are you sure of that? Certainly you can bring with yourself (for personal use) as much alcohol as you want across any EU border, and I'd be surprised if it became a fraud at some point just because it's shipped for you. This kind

That's a good point in a way. At that size (especially with the 4:3 screen ratio) it's certainly uncomfortable to hold it like a phone, even with huge hands. Ergo, screen size doesn't really matter that much (of course it mat

Correction: a piss poor 27 inch display. "Quad HD" is way too little for that size; you need to at least quadruple the amount of pixels to get anything resembling print quality. And I don't understand why we shouldn't st
