I thought PC-Mag and Dvorak were both already dead. How long has it been since either one was actually relevant?
Apple looks strong because their price per unit i.e. the "stupid" tax they make you pay on all their products is astronomically high. The actual demand and shipping volumes for their laptops has never set any records…
Then why not just remove all reimbursements for food instead of penalizing just one group?
People aren't born with prejudices, they have to learn them. The most common source being religion. Without religion we wouldn't have had witch trials, the Crusades and a lot of other really miserable shit. What it…
An external HD or removable SSD drive would be a much better system for moving between home and work. It doesn't matter how heavy the base system is if you're just moving a tiny disk, but there's no money in that for…
Apple has never cared what their users wanted and they've never listened to them. Design, like shit, flows downhill. The difference between then and now that is Steve Jobs isn't around to tell them that the shit landing…
Moral positions are not facts, they are beliefs. if a person believes meat is bad, then that individual can give up meat. Done. That was easy wasn't it? If they want other people to join the movement, they they can…
If they want to avoid being branded as brain dead hypocrites, they can't decide to allow one dietary choice over another. This is really just a hippie driven religious debate in lab grown meat's clothing.
Chrome is a jerk
Toes have been stolen or swallowed (yup) over the years and replacements have been donated. There's now a hefty fine for anyone who wants to swallow the toe.
If Tears had NO claim to TC then why would Arrington willingly give up 10%? Pity? I don't think so. Not his style. Did they have a written agreement about the 75/25 split that muddied the waters? Possibly. We're…
Finding it pretty hard to muster up any kind of empathy for millionaire professional athletes.
Business class is close but unless the cabins are separated you still have to mix with the unwashed when they sneak in to befoul the toilet. The mouth breathers really all belong in cargo. But that would be unkind.…
Non-service animals, crying and seat kicking children, the sick, the morbidly obese (if you spill over your assigned seat), smokers, people who wear too much cologne/perfume, people who put their feet/knees on the seat…
All of Apple's battery problems would disappear if I could replace the battery in my device instead of being forced to chuck the whole thing because the battery will no longer take/keep a charge. Surely someone at Apple…
Just rebuild the sensitive portions of your code using movfuscator and leave the performance critical stuff alone. As long as everything is statically linked and you don't do anything stupid like "if (check) unlock()"…
Shareholder oppression is criminal. Whether the actions they take constitute shareholder oppression or not is a matter that usually gets settled in court or arbitration.
I started writing shareware in 8o's and even then there were alternative "marketing" and distribution methods to print, like BBSes, SIMTEL20 (and other FTP archives), usenet, user groups, shareware CD's and sharing…
I can't but there are people out there who can, and have done it... http://www.ctvnews.ca/health/martin-shkreli-s-750-life-savin...
Pharmaceutical companies R&D costs for new drugs are heavily subsidized by tax credits and write offs. Capital is required to kick start the process but much of that can be recovered at tax time, the rest when they…
I have machines that were and are still running Windows 7 and Windows 8 (I keep them around for testing). I was never forced to upgrade them to Windows 10 and it was never done "auto-magically" for me. I've also never…
This has been a problem since forever. I had one of the first Intel Macbooks and the damned thing blew up 2 batteries. They swelled up to about 4 times their original thickness overnight. Luckily, they didn't explode…

The risk you run by using a third party licensing solution is that they are more attractive targets to crackers. Generally, once a system has been compromised, all of the software using that system become vulnerable.…
There may be a skills shortage but that has nothing to do with a graduate shortage (or lack thereof). Just because you graduated doesn't mean you have a useful skill set, that you're proficient or employable.
