It's called a PC. Hook it up to the TV
Am I missing something here? How do you do that without having a big ugly PC sitting next to the TV?

Keep in mind that happy users are silent users.
Oh STFU with that. What the heck is the point in getting feedback if all you're going to say it "screw it, most users are silent and happy"? What we KNOW is from the feedback, and it's overwhelmingly negative. Here's my feedback:
I don't like tiny icons.
I don't like black and white icons.
I don't like the reduced toolbar customizability of Australis.
I don't like the lack of a status bar.
I don't like a popup for my bookmarks by default instead of a sidebar.
And I definitaly Do Not Like tabs on top!
All of those changes were tested before major release, and major opposition to them was voiced. On every occasion, people opposing the change were told to fuck off. So I (and many others) did. Fuck you, Firefox, with your shitty UX changes.
Yeah, they should rename it to what we call it in the UK: oilseed rape.
I've already been lucky enough to get FTTC, and my connection varies between 50/5 and 20/2, I'd say. Other than some improvement in my upload speeds, I'm pretty much happy with the bandwidth. Why would I need more? I have an uncapped connection, but if I had 500Mbps I rather doubt my ISP would be willing to offer THAT uncapped... if I could even find anything that big (legally) to download on a regular basis.
This just seems like a big PR thing BT are doing so they can tell simpletons like David Cameron that "the UK now has super-mega-ultra-uber fast broadband". I'm with the rest of ya; finish the FTTC rollout, get that too ~100% of the population.
FTTC should be enough for anyone.
Using Chrome latest here.
Why??
And it still has a way better UI than Firefox or Chrome for high resolution desktops (ie. desktops).
Still has a broken flexbox implementation.
And its devtools suck ass. Just my opinion.
Is it a hoax? I'm on tenterhooks.
Not really. If you're the kind of person who builds custom computers, when you call them up just say you replaced the motherboard. If they really push (and I've never had a problem with that) then just say the previous one went bad and had to be RMA'd or replaced. They're happy to remove the old motherboard from the license and apply the license to your new one.
Yep. My machine has had 3 new motherboards, 4 new gfx cards, 10 new RAM modules, 2 new hard drives, a new PSU, 2 new cases (one with additional go-faster stripes upgrade), 3 new montors, 4 new mice, a new keyboard and 5 new surround sound speakers. It's still going strong with the original OS.
How is that adjustable? Do you always have to work standing up?
I have read the text a couple of times. And it clearly states that Muslims are to DEFEND themselves against oppressors without mercy, but to live amongst them in peace if they are not being attacked.
But they can interpret ridicule or criticism as an attack or an oppression, can't they? That's the trouble with interpretation, anyone can put their own spin on it and use it to justify their actions.
I have no issue with pushing for diversity,
In seriousness, why? If the people in your office are mostly white males and they're doing a competent job, while the women and minorities who do choose to go into IT manage to get work at the same rate as white men do, where is the problem? Why is there this arbitrary need for "more diversity"?
But are they as bad as RollerCoaster Tycoon 4?
Except that 4 hostages did actually die.
I'm pretty sure he is now close to Allah while the fundamentalists burn.
I'm pretty sure that he's either just gone or, if alive in some sense, certainly not in any of the senses of the human-invented religions.
