They already have a name for this.

From the wiki:

You must have gotten lucky. I've found many threads with people complaining about the same problems I've seen.

Yeah, I realized that after I posted. I confused the manufacturer with my 4 (which is pretty decent).

LG messed up the 7 too. I read somewhere that it's battery issues may be tied to the substandard wiring people were observing, when they took the unit apart. I have much better luck with the 10.

I have the 4, the 7 (2nd gen) and the 10. The Nexus 10 is the best smart anything I ever bought. Good speakers and nice sized screen. I can go a couple weeks between recharges. That should have been their flagship product.

I thought the 7, despite all the stellar reviews was garbage. Crummy battery life makes it unusable. I might get a day or two on this. The random reboots don't help either.

I have pretty much the exact same software on both, except that I confine my video watching to the 10. I'm lucky if I can even check my twitter feed on the 7, without having to plug it in everyday.

I don't see the point of the 9. A 7 is about the best you can comfortably manage with one hand. If you have to use two anyway, then they should have just moved up to an 11 or a 12.

Didn't the FBI just have to relax it's restrictions against pot smokers, in order to attract the talent they need? And are not illegal downloaders more common?

If you set up your swipe pattern first, and then encrypt from the command line, you can have a strong password for boot with a swipe to bring it out of sleep.

Good! The reason I'm using Linux is precisely because I've seen every one-size-fits-all solution fail. If that's what you're looking for, stick with Windows, Apple or the borg.

Most companies aren't interested in you recreating the wheel, they want you to get a working, maintainable product out the door in as little time as possible. Design patterns are more important to focus on than memory management these days.

C and C++ have their uses, but at the end of the day, C is little more than a macro-assembler and is completely inappropriate for most tasks in the business world. I've never worked anywhere where the C/C++ side of the project (there's always one group of holdouts) isn't consistently the long pole in the tent. After seeing several projects fail over this, I'd rather they "keep it real" on their own time.

Seems like they knocked it because of the Java and it wasn't Fedora/RPM friendly. But I've been through all of these and the plugin capabilities put jEdit on top IMO. With a little customization, it easier becomes the most powerful of the lot. The other editors are just Notepad clones by comparison.

Why don't they just use Brawndo? It's the thirst mutilator.

I've just made it back from RTFA and Phoronix is calling it "Optional systemd Support".

We need to send in Jodie Foster, NOW!

When Germany rolled over the first time, it was an invitation for more. Same is true here with the American people.

I understand because we're in the same situation in the US. People have had plenty of time to wake up, they just don't care. It's depressing.
