there already IS an unnofficial port, im running a beta of it right now and it's miles ahead of what samsung is providing.
no random crash, or reboot, the status bar doesn't get stuck on top and i can actually answer every calls i receive (unlike the samsung rom which would make the touchscreen totally unresponsive about 25% of the time). to top it off, my battery lasts around 2-3 days instead of the 18 hours i was getting
i don't know about gnutls's maturity,
but polarssl does not seem to support renegotiation, that to me indicates it's a pretty bad choice for a vpn which you expect to be up 100% of the time and pass significant traffic. looks like the dutchies just wanted SOMETHING they had made locally in an approved software, security be damned!
they dont get the credit. they get the bitching.
java's garbage collector is horrible, probably the worst of all VM. that's exactly why you always hear about it
but it's the old "bad publicity is good publicity" trick, because we always hear about java's garbage everyone assume they're the only language to have one and they want garbage collection (who wouldn't? no one likes trash piling up on their front door!)
it's not legal to do that over a certain (ridiculously low) amount of taxes due. check out provisional accounts
and i did, cancelled my service last year.
it's not cheaper, but it's certainly better in other ways
this is actually an improvement over their current practices.
they've been billing based on usage for years now, but they charge 8$/GB instead of 1.12$.
unless the article meant Gb, in which case it's meaningless and just validates their current business model
pidgin is nice, but it has one of the worst notification system around. either it's focus-stealing or not notifying you at all of new messages
add my vote for ubiquiti gear. it's seriously great, their official firmware is linux based, and they even give instructions to install thirdparty fw (hell, the routerstation only as a thirdparty firmware)
newegg won't even let me purchase from them, their paypal settings are fucked and they won't do anything about it
i have half of a mind to think it's on purpose just so they can get get credit card numbers to run scams on, and this latest snafu doesn't help me think otherwise
and yet it's still not as bad as java
in fact, i'd go as far as saying as the best programming language in the world pretty much ensure it will be unmaintanable. since most people that write exclusively in them don't understand the underlying abstractions
better than anything i've tried.
vnc, single-click uvnc, moodus, crossloops, logmein, pcanywhere, ms remote help, and a bunch of other paid-for remote desktop companies
it's a single exe on their front page, no installation: just run it. and there's no login and password that you need to get the user to understand or manage.
when they run the program they get an ID and password generated automatically for front of them. numbers only. you just have them read it out to you and you're in.
the ID is constant for a single pc, but the password change every time they restart the app for more security. they can delete the exe once you're done,it leaves no trace. and it's small enough that you can have them redownload it every time, which is often easier anyway.
my customer base is farmers, OLD farmers. i have not had ONE issue getting them to log on.
they're not always literate, much less computer literate. but they know numbers (got to count and weight those chickens you know...)
all other systems have been a nightmare.
i concur, teamviewer is simply the best.
