Genius. You're a fucking genius.

The still most widely deployed version, 2.3, is fine. At least if you don't run apps with ads, but then, there's no hope left for you anyway.

Nobody mentions which version introduced the bug in the browser, but I'm guessing it's 3.1. But i know very little.

Everyone is circlejerking on hackernews nowadays.

The market is already regulated, and it did not prevent that. Because you all are clueless about current regulations as you will be on future regulation.

We already have regulation against a politician doing seemly dumb things for the people. This is obviously a back room deal with some telco or do no evil Google. Yet, no place it was mentioned WHO signed/proposed the bill.

Unless you learn to pay attention to that little detail, which is the basis of current regulation, by votes or criminal prosecution, how do you expect more regulation to do any difference when the basic ones are already ignored?

i know the level here is low recently... but an old product is news? with an hour long commercial introduction before the no-infomation video?!?!

here is the fucking product page link http://www.epson.com/cgi-bin/Store/jsp/Moverio/Home.do (with no information such as file type, etc)

and here is the $500 amazon page selling it with fucking reviews http://www.amazon.com/Epson-V11H423020-Moverio-See-Through-Wearable/dp/B007ORN0LS

Enjoy your betamax, disclaser, minidisc, and whatever they use now for their cameras that is not SD card.

every dumb anonymous coward who buy Sony need to be screwed by proprietary media lockin. It's a service to society.

Also, blueray. Suckers.

That is interesting. I'd guess they do not like your book because it is a dreaded school assignment to them. Maybe you should go for the schools and allow them to distribute for free after a small fee? that way it would be easier to enforce...

And I am curious if you add a plea against piracy on the book?

Moron. It's a feature. Bmw is the only that you can get a blank from the dealer from less than $30 and program it following instructions from the users manual.

You may have already purchased such device if you have an Android.

Wifi passwords are sent to Google by default, on every device, email passwords sent to Motorola (owned by Google) on all Motorola devices (except for gmail... Guess they optimized since they already have those)

On ios, who knows? It's closed and phone home all the time.

They are dumb. Release the driver as opensource, and depends on the closed 3rd party code, shipped as the current binaryblob.

Open source devs would waste their time implementing open source version of those components, freeing nvidia ofof paying royalties in the future.

You forgot the disclaimer about your employer.

Lear all you can. how can he do less work and not create bugs? (if he creates bugs, stop fixing his work and let the problem fix itself)

All in all, he is you tomorrow. You will get like him. Maybe there's a reason for that. maybe it's just indifference that comes with age. either way, i'd recomend you to learn his ways and start sooner, for as soon as you start that, you will get better pay, more respect, and a youger idiot to clean up after you.

Sure it was.

- let's buy some crap for 12bi so we don't have to pay a couple billions in patent licenses.

It was because they wanted this money and they lost. They literally gambled with company money.

Not true, this worked for the guy, Adria Richard, from the dongle-gate
