If all phones were unlocked and open sourced this would not be a problem, a phone from 1999 would be pretty ok to code on. That's one reason I really like GPL for consumer products.

Though for me Logic 101 was a lot better for my thinking than learning to code.
They have less than 7% of the seats in the parliament. I would say that the racist party is a lot worse. a funny thing about that
Actually, I recently bought a book on Google Play (but I guess it's the same on all platform) and I could start reading in 5 seconds. In the end I returned the book because it was DRM riddled, which was also pretty fast (20 seconds), but it's still cumbersome to manually return those 15 books you want to leaf through.
Considering how easy it is to map APs I don't see why they should have to care about _nomap.. I don't see why you would want opt out.
t would seem that its essentially useless as soon as a certain percentage of SSIDs change.
Then you map it again. It's not that hard especially if it works ok for ~2 years, and you manage to get an installed base during that time. Every time a phone says "i can see X Y Z", and Z isn't in the DB you will now that Z is near X Y.
Will we all be riding bicycles or using public transportation or some other non-personal transportation option? Are we all destined to become herd animals?
You have bought into too much from car comercials, a car is a the ultimate herd animal, at least most of the time, except those rare occasions you drive to the beach a coast along in the turf at 90 mph.
What's the point of this?
So they can sell your location to advertisers?
I know for a fact that Mozilla doesn't want to do that, it's stated in the project goals. The point is that it's eays to find out location without having to turn onf/have access to a GPS.
Sound ok to me.
I don't have to worry, I just prepare and cook those dishes they deliver to my door/store, serisouly it's solved, AFAI can see the automatic grocery list is a long way off. We eat better and spend a lot less time on dealing with food, at least 2 hours less per week,
Things in my kitchen order by importance:
1. fridge
2. stove
3. food delivered to my apartment/store, with 4 meals.
4. running water
Are you saying that Shelob the giant spider is better than TSA.
ECC fails in a nice way, that's why you use them, there are lots of nice graphs wround to show you why. If you want to say that ECC isn't important you need to put up some facts to support that.
That said ECC is slower, more expensive and makes vendor lock in easier,
add revenue on data.. hmph..
Hadlock. Get your facts straight, my friend. The State of Sao Paulo, where I live, would still be in the G-20 if it was an independent country, with a world class infrastructure.
Maybe, even though the Sao Paulo republic has a huge amount of filthy rich people, it wouldn't survive 5 minutes in South American politics. Just saying.
