That is, 8 "nahs", two repetitions of "nah nah nah nah".

8, you're welcome

You MAY be able to use directory junctions / NTFS simlinks to get round this issue.

Free Software Foundation "Defective By Design" site, specifically highlighting the locked down nature of the ipad. Not sure if it's directly steered by Stallman, but I'm pretty sure he's always been vocal about the evils of DRM in Apple products.

Which they are. The ipad is a relatively young device. If you have an original model ipad, you're locked out of the current iOS release, and the older iOS releases are slowly becoming less and less useful. Give it n years and an original model ipad that has no other hardware defects will be rendered completely useless due to only being able to run an obsolete OS. This is NOT a good situation for computing to find itself in.

I work for a review platform. We have decided that you only really need four ratings, Bad, Poor, Good, Excellent. We don't have a neutral option because really neutral tends to mean bad.

Of course, quite a lot of our users (and our marketing department) seem to prefer stars. Because an arbitrary scale is so much more useful that simply saying what you think of something. Apparently.

Does anyone else play the "Predict which XKCD this will be" game when Oblig XKCD links are posted?

(Those that don't know the strip numbers off by heart of course)

I tried to give our office manager Libre Office to save us the license fee for a copy of MS Office. The very first document she tried to work on:

Some of the numbers in her ordered lists were randomly bold. Unbold them, save document, open it again, they're back in bold.

At one point in the document, libre office was acting as if there were a page break present, when there was not one. It appeared to be impossible to remove this phantom non-existent page break.

I gave up and she got MS Office back.

You may laugh, but Trial of Paul Chambers. Fortunately it didn't land him in prison.

And that 3GS will later be repaired, refurbished, then either resold or given to another customer like yourself.

Many thanks. That was it.

Orig: "What the OP means is their(0) dropping it because of legal issues around GPLv3,(1) on Windows 8 approved hardware they won't be able to keep the private signing key,(2) private which would result in their certificates being revoked."

(0) debatably incorrect use of "their" (possessive) vs "they're" (contraction). Can be argued to be intended but it probably wasn't

(1) comma splice - two sentences that can stand alone joined together incorrectly. The correct punctuation here would be a semicolon

(2) this comma just doesn't belong here. They want to keep the private signing key private.

Offtopic: but I can no longer even compose using HTML. Any tags I put in just get <i>passed through</i>. Anyone know why?

YMMV

I'm not a costume wearing Trekkie, but I was pretty hardcore in the Whedonverse fandom for a few years, especially when Serenity came out, and my wife really couldn't give two hoots for anything in the 'verse. She just doesn't get it. Didn't matter - she never stopped me travelling to meet other Browncoats or seeing the film in the cinema a bunch of times. So we just don't watch it together. It's not a big deal. She's mad for CSI and the like and I don't like it, so she watches it when I'm out.

We both agree Game of Thrones is pretty awesome, so we watch that together.

Just because you don't share someone's passion doesn't mean you inherently want to stop them indulging it.
