Well, Chang'e was not only made in China, but is currently about 400.000 km away and appears stuck. I doubt things are going much better for Hop'e.
Then they can just start counting in German.
Yes, while we're at it, let's call it OneDriver, or in German, EinFuhrer. Nobody will dispute this trademark!
Getting everything done is the enemy of getting something done.
This works both ways, unfortunately.
Some C programmers, when confronted with a cross-platform problem, think "I know, I'll embed the Python interpreter." Now the program is not fast enough to calculate how many problems they have.
Because you don't want to use differents API for DNS lookups on different platforms, you want to "write once, run everywhere". Considering the above-mentioned Qt already exists, I thought this was a solved problem, but apparently Chrome-fans have to reinvent the wheel.
I would, but I suspect my router has altered its contents. Or it has altered my brain, I'm not sure which.
This, a million times this. It's a damn shame that site that is as tech-oriented as Slashdot has no public API. Then again, it has no unicode either, so we can't expect much.
Shameless plug: the app linked in my sig works by parsing the HTML, like some sort of a barbarian. I hate it, and it completely chokes on the new beta thing.

Because next time I write a virus, I will use it to infect a UTP cable.
Not "cures", but "treats". You pay for a cure once. You keep paying for treatment for the rest of your life.
Ted Tso is just awesome.
I remember being here when ext4 was released, and there were some major performance issues. People hated on him like he was burning orphanages.
Not really, no. There are, however, many people of average intelligence who like to believe that.
I say we harness the power of the atom from a circular trajectory. It's the only way to be positive.
The Tao is like a glob pattern: used but never used up. It is like the extern void: filled with infinite possibilities.
