With you :)

Light on details but I thought you might be slightly interested:

Pertinent point: "Now, Intel’s next NUCs are taking aim at the 14-nm Broadwell generation. No, not the Core M, the chip that Intel just announced for tablets and some notebooks. Intel designed the Broadwell-U derivative for NUCs, a 15-watt dual-core chip for ultrabooks and NUCs that should arrive with a slower graphics core than Intel’s more mainstream chips."

IMNSHO this is more about the OpenBSD folks doing what they do best.

I sincerely respect their approach to programming, especially with regards to security: rather than just introduce security layers and mechanisms they program defensively and try to avoid or catch fundamental, exploitable mistakes.

Hats off to the OpenBSD folks.

You don't need to simply imagine it:

Yeah, there were dolphins, and a fisherman on fire, and I killed a guy with a trident.

A 3 or 4 step HOWTO/FAQ item in the Steam forums would likely be enough to get most people up and running.

In fairness, it's often difficult to distinguish between a human-written comment on Youtube and a poorly-written AI.

There's a wealth of information on the net regarding DIY wind turbines.

Hang on, that might be the solution for the greenhouse effect! ;)

This isn't an automated sync, but is how to get the contacts on your device/sim into Gmail/Google:

You need to *move* the contacts. It's not super-intuitive, especially as it's more of a "copy" operation rather than a "move" operation.

Sorry if you already knew this and it doesn't work for you.

Maybe not the whole face, but hopefully it will change the mouth :)

I wonder whether a larger issue may be that people want the GUI to be consistent, even between different models and makes of phone.

It seems counter-productive to have phones with different GUIs for the sake of avoiding patent infringement. The result is the consumer wastes time re-learning how to use the device.

> Lastly, remember the awesome package art on those games? They used the same artist who did those iconic album covers for Yes.

Indeed. The artist is Roger Dean. I love his work.

Or a version of Obliterator that runs at a playable frame rate! :)

I have extremely fond memories of 1980s Psygnosis. "Shadow of the Beast" was my first introduction to "parallax scrolling", which seemed to become a mandatory feature of all side-scrollers from that point on.

Absolutely *loved* their logo too.
