Well, the increased power consumption of the hardware not entering sleep mode would be a non-marginal amount of power theft. Not to mention consent...

They don't work as advertised - they're terrible. Besides Microsoft, Google has come the closest, but they're not pushing it as convergence. I think it is the future, but it's going to be a difficult one that requires an

Azure is a good product, though. And, more importantly, the person is familiar with it. If I was doing something similar, I'd probably use GCP. Not necessarily because it's superior (i like it a lot, btw), but because I can achiev

I am not offended by someone's personally held religious beliefs. I am, however, deliberately excluded if participating means adhering to a code of conduct that targets my beliefs.

When it's in relation to a post asking, "who's really excluded", I think it's appropriate.

#1 on the list is: First of all, love the Lord God with your whole heart, your whole soul, and your whole strength. I'm an atheist - I am unable and unwilling to comply with this CoC. So yes, I would say that I am affected. Other well

It's because sometimes, such as when Apple takes a year to update a line, that you can find an ultrabook that costs half of what Apple is offering for similar specs (or in some cases, same price, much worse specs). Take a look at the M

This has been happening for years, especially in the "botnet community". Either someone takes down someone else's botnet through the same bug and patches it or figures out a bug in the botnet and caps it for themselves (for e

English has a lot of unwritten rules as well. Which sounds correct? I have a large red ball. I have a red large ball. I imagine german has the same, and I wonder if it's one of those cases. For example, to a german speaker, it would be

If you're going to be pointlessly pedantic, at least be correct.

That's not the takeaway that you should have - simplicity doesn't matter if minor language versions make breaks.

Difference in power usage isn't that great, and carriers are provisioning 4g capability - in areas where 3g is over-used, it's not being improved.

The biggest benefit this could have is a smart-ish phone with multiple days of active use battery life. Instead they specced a 500mah battery Also it's $3-400. Insane. I can get a commodity android phone for $150, remove all of the app

Considering that the darker edges of "app engagement" are trying to replicate gambling addiction, I hesitate to call users dumb when they don't act in their best self interest.

Not hyperbole, a real problem that leads to interop issues. For example, the hellish filesystem wars of the mid 2000s. Most distros STILL ship ext4 despite there being better options.

First of all, it's the weather. Half the year is rendered unusable for unplanned adventure. More than once here, on a rainy winter day, I've gotten in my car and driven east until I hit the hills, found a park, and enjoyed a sunny
