Had a large vinyl collection when that was how music was sold. Needles skipped, had to be isolated from speakers, the more juice and speaker you could afford, the further away it had to be. If you get how 1080p is more than enough for nearly 100% of viewing, why don't you get the same for sound? Human ears are far less discerning than eyes. Idiots, all of them.
Not only will I not be buying the next IPHONE, I've never owned one and own no other APPLE products (and never will)
Unfortunately just having drivers for one chipset wouldn't help for long.
I would pay to have an entire company commit to making new, leading edge graphics cards with device drivers always and forever open sourced.
All I can say is me too.
I got first initial, last name @ gmail when gmail was in Beta and one needed an invite.
I get crap daily, but what's really annoying is when it's from a site I may wish to use at some time in the future, like instagram or snapchat, or some other site that I don't presently use. It ain't spam, but it ain't welcome, the big G needs another button for us to click.
Now when I register at sites, especially banks, I use strong password generators
`tr -dc 'a-zA-Z0-9'
to generate a meaningless username as well as password. No more fnamelname usernames for me.
Out of the pan and into the fire, I've quit Skype for good.
I frankly trust the big G more than M$.
Guess we have to pick our poison
I'm sure you meant caffeine, nicotine, cocaine, alcohol, and sugar
It's the advertisers that destroyed the relationship. Their dancing snakes and popups, popunders have necessitated adblocking.
Ads quickly became obnoxious and were easily blocked. Then they became sneaky and required a bit of effort to block, but they were blocked.
Now that we block ads, it's a war. Since the advertisers continue to go over the top, I now look at pages with 50% white space because their divs are whited out
EMACS of course!
GNUS reads mail
When I was a hiring manager the joke was "I'll hire anybody that spell computer"
Do you know what jquery is? Do you know what DOM means? You're hired!
I posted a request on Google Groups, years ago that Google implement a blacklist of sites, sites that I don't want to see in search results.
I despise results from other search engines, such as ask.com, scribd.com, and a dozen others that harvest other's answers and barrage me with a second layer of ads.
Google did implement "blocked sites" but eventually it removed it. Personally I would think the blocked sites list would be invaluable on a server side "page rank" algorithm. The more users blocking a given site, the lower the sites rank.
Other than the obvious features you've mentioned in your article, simply stop returning other search engines and rank original content higher than harvested content.
Waze is an annoying app and only use it for that feature. Not better than Navigator or G maps, except for avoiding the revenue generating radar traps.
