Comment Re:Closed source drivers still a bane (Score 2) 82

Didn't we just have a front page article about how the Nexus 7 has closed source drivers and some guys stopped maintaining their build?

Waiting for Tuppe666 to tell me why this is good, and how Google is jesus.

I don't know if google is jesus, , but after googling it I found out that Jesus is ON Google +!

I tried CM 10 on my GS3 and sadly I had to remove it. Wi-fi, camera and bluetooth refused to work properly, kept crashing or had awful performance, depending on the revision installed. So I went back to the stock ROM, which isn't too bad thankfully, but still has alot of services and programs that I have no use of and yet are always loaded in memory. Next phone(which should not be before 3 years) I am going Nexus to avoid all that pain.(and hoping that Nexus phones still exist at that time)

Submission + - Saving the Ozone Layer and the Climate by Reducing Hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs) (thebulletin.org)

Lasrick writes: From the article: 'Hydrochlorofluorocarbons — several of which served as the initial replacements for CFCs — are in the process of being phased out because they too can destroy stratospheric ozone molecules, even though they have shorter atmospheric lifetimes than CFCs. As a result, replacements have been found for most uses of hydrochlorofluorocarbons, largely in the form of hydrofluorocarbons, which do not contain chlorine. But the increasing use and emissions have given rise to a new concern: Some of the key compounds in this class have long atmospheric lifetimes, and they are also greenhouse gases that can affect climate. HFCs have already become heavily used in home air conditioners, refrigeration applications, and the creation of insulating foam, and their production has been increasing by about 15 percent per year.'
