I'm still partial to that tactical nuclear strike.

But ... but ... it's "on a computer"! And even "on the internet"!

That's twice the reason to throw sense and logic out the window!

Where's terrorists when you need them?

Seriously, people. Am I the only one who can see how they can instantly score a lot of sympathy and good PR if they chose the right targets for their planes?

In case you're wondering, I know why you don't get invited to parties...

We get a new barrage of online anti-bullying laws. While at the same time, nobody gives half a shit about real life bullying.

Ya know what I'm talking about. The kind where REAL people REALLY hurt you and your feelings. Starts in school, doesn't even end in the workplace. And? Zilch. Nada.

Could it be that the ones making the laws ARE the offline bullies? And just unable to retaliate otherwise when their targets fight back with weapons that require more brain cells to employ?

And, like, everyone else in the arena?

I don't question it being competitive. Or requires training and skill. Hell, I even don't question that it's a sport. Or rather, I don't want to get into a discussion about it because, well, it's useless. There still is a reason why your playing of DOTA or whatever else the game du jour is will replace Superbowl Sunday any time soon: It's boring to watch.

And sadly that's true for ALL so called eSports. It simply isn't interesting to watch someone play a computer game. Yes, maybe due to novelty some people will wanna know what the hubub is about, but as soon as the novelty factor wears off, it's back to "meh". It's simply no fun to watch people play a computer game when you can play it yourself instead.

Soon to be the official SI unit describing the minimum distance between two blunders.

Western has been used to describe Europe for hundreds of years before anyone who knew that the world was round knew the Americas existed.

And this is how copyright caused thousands of deaths because the life saving checks could not be implemented.

I feel like a story coming to me...

Why is this moderated troll? Depression is not the same as just being depressed. It very often doesn't have a rational trigger.

The access point that my cableco gave me can do this. Of course, the router crashes after about 10 minutes of use if you actually enable it...

A better solution would be a standard form of QR code for WiFi configuration info, so you just point your camera at something and now you have WiFi credentials.

38MB sounds only a bit larger than just ICU (31MB on my machine), so Qt isn't adding much there. ICU is used by most GUI frameworks (Microsoft has their own version, but OS X ships it as part of the standard install) and includes things like fast unicode collation (locale-aware sorting is hard!) and fast unicode regular expressions. Most apps that need to work in places that aren't just the English(ish)-speaking parts of North America need most of that functionality.

This is true, but it's also completely irrelevant. Safari uses WebKit, including WebCore and JavaScriptCore. All of the Safari features that are not part of WebCore and JavaScriptCore are entirely user-facing and irrelevant to web developers. If you look at what's actually included in the WebKit nightly builds, you'll see that it's a build of Safari.
