America really needs to stop thinking of itself as a free society with a legal system which isn't about political persecution instead of actual facts.
Well yes, yes it does. That's the only way people will get mad enough to demand change... so we can "have nice things". Like a functioning justice system. Or at least, functioning in a way that benefits the citizenry.
Putting it at the top of the page forces me to look at the same (effectively a) story over and over until it changes.
It forces you? Man, if you don't learn to ignore things you don't want to look at on the internet, you're gonna have a bad time. How many times do you look at the Slashdot front page in a day, anyway? I mean, I have the same illness, but if it offended my eyeballs I just wouldn't do that.
Do you? Because he wasn't convicted of that, and the charges were dropped.
Do you debate that it happened?
Are you suggesting you should sentence people based on the things you didn't charge them with and didn't prove?
One felony at a time. It's not just a good idea, it's common fucking sense.
A poll is not a news story and shouldn't be in the news feed. Please put it back in the sidebar where it belongs.
Slashdot is no longer either "news for nerds" nor "stuff that matters", as evinced by the front page. What the front page tells us about Slashdot by making declarative, self-referential statements is the following:
So just to be clear, the front page is not a "news feed", because Slashdot is not a news site. Slashdot is a blog with integrated forum, with stories on the front page. They could call it "news", because Fox News went to court for the very important journalistic right (</snark>) to call anything they want by that name, but they don't. I find that, at least, refreshingly honest.
Feel free to rant on about how polls don't belong in the feed, but don't get it twisted — Slashdot is not a news outlet. Don't expect them to behave by "old media" rules.
They're already making money doing what they do now. If they let other people work out the bugs, then they can implement whatever technology turns out to mature most rapidly or most fully or most cheaply, whatever makes the spreadsheets come out at the time
Moto G is most definitely not water resistant
LG's hardware is pretty good
Which? I've a bit of it, all crap so far. Dumbphones, smartphones, optical drives... I think there's been a display in there even.
So I am unsure what version exactly are you using, the old one or the one from gnome 3 or yet another fork that I am unaware?
Probably the old one, let me check. Hmm, no, looks like the gnome 3 one. Why is nemo better? I have barely used that box since the build.
Well, Windscale was never used for civilian power production. I think nearly all of the reactors designed for weapons production were far less safe than nearly any civilian design.
And yeah, the Magnox reactors weren't very safe either, although they're better IMO than the RBMK design.
CANDU are, to my knowledge, the only other civilian reactors in use to have a positive void coefficient, but at least in their case the moderator (heavy water) isn't flammable...
More likely it is the carriers and not LG.
This is why I refuse to buy carrier-branded phones nowadays.
I haven't heard too many issues about Sony LP... That said, right around when they deployed LP to the Z3 is when I finally unlocked the bootloader and started running Omni on it.
That said - 5.0 was in general a steaming pile of poo, which is why so many OEMs are just skipping to 5.1 now. 5.0 was such poo that Google changed the version number to get away from the stigma, in reality, 5.1 was more like a 5.0.3... But it was important in that it fixed the biggest issues with 5.0.x
You're not guaranteed regular updates with Cyngn phones either.
They burned their first hardware partner even more than they burned OnePlus with the MicroMax exclusivity mess - the Oppo N1 didn't get a KitKat update from Cyngn until November 2014.
Cyngn corporate is "just another OEM" - same BS.
Moto G is most definitely not water resistant. Any member of Sony's Xperia Z family - yes. Moto G - no.
I never had any issues with my Nexus 4 or Nexus 5. LG's hardware is pretty good, it's their software that is utterly atrocious (generally a common theme for Asian companies, partly because Asian markets seem to care more about how shiny and colorful their skin is than whether their phone is a bugridden POS running outdated software...), which is why I will never buy an LG device that is not a Nexus. (Same goes for Samsungs... I used to be a heavy Samsung user, but after the way they handled Superbrick... never again...)
If the difference is only in the radios, no need for Canadian kernel source.
Usually the international source for most devices is the least mangled.
Before anyone rants about GPL violations - they only have to release source if they released a binary. They haven't released a binary.
I guess all those computers in offices are just for show?
I guess you can't read? Those computers belong to the businesses, not the people using them. On their computers, they typically just browse.
All the people who schedule and calendar with their cellphones are faking it?
What exactly does that have to do with what they do with their desktop? ADD much? Stay on topic.
My friends laptops at home which absolutely have to have Office and a VPN aren't real?
"most people". Learn to read.
This exact, elitist, "I'm an IT Guy" sentiment.
I'm an IT guy, you illiterate ignoranus.
Never had a problem with my Nexus 4, and I abused the fuck out of it.
I took good care of mine, kept it in a Ringke Fusion case, etc. Just crap. Apparently they are super-sensitive to moisture. Moto G is water resistant. Never buying a phone that isn't again.
What the gods would destroy they first submit to an IEEE standards committee.
