Just to clarify here: kanji is the Japanese term for Chinese characters. Hanzi is the Chinese term for these characters. So when talking about Chinese characters in the context of China, use "hanzi" and not "kanji". Although if slashdot supported unicode, you'd be able to render the characters for hanzi and kanji and then see that they're the same characters.

emacs would like to have a word with you.

Only 15 times? I can jump even more than that in four years.

Is there a technical reason for using Oracle over something else?

This is more a philosophical question along the lines of ship of Theseus.

All the components of your cells are replaced about every 7 years. Are you still the same person every 7 years?

You can get 2 Xeon E5 2670 CPUs for about $100 nowadays. Sure, Sandy Bridge is 6 years old, but they have great performance even today.

I mean, the more childrens' hands have been cut off from warlords mining these things means the love is greater.

It's not stated in the summary or article.

This affects the Nextbit Robin, which is already bootloader unlockable (just run "fastboot oem unlock-go" and that's it).

That's not really true. All my PCs (laptop and desktops) that run Debian all boot using 64-bit UEFI. That means no need for real-mode shenanigans to finally get into 64-bit mode from 16-bit mode. ARM systems could have standardized on UEFI, but most of them don't use it. About the only ARM devices that do use UEFI are the server oriented devices and Microsoft's phone and tablet.

I guess my phone is safe.

Close. We're up to Pentium Pro now, which was released in 1995. And patents last 20 years.

It's using Intel's Skylake processor. That requires a chipset that has IME on it, unless they were able to strike a deal with Intel and make their own chipset without IME, which is not likely.

I fail to see how Linux is a bad platform for games when there's already a FreeBSD gaming platform (PS4) that does pretty well.
