Re: Google Chrome pushes ahead with targeted ads based on your browser history
Time to switch browsers. I'm looking for recommendations. One thing I'm after is something that will stop any video or audio from autoplaying. The extension I've been using in Chrome stopped working for some videos several months back. I will be testing it against this one . you're crazy if you don...

Re: FAA unveils mandatory registration program for drones
no flight within 5 miles of an airport unless you contact the control tower/ATC, etc. Considering my backyard is a mere 7~ n.mi from an airport; um no. Some parts of the country are pretty much offlimits (AFAIK good portions of Ohio) due to that rule. This rule has all the hallmarks of being aggres...

Re: Verizon wants 25% more money for 1000% less service
Sitting on your phone still means you're paying the carrier subsidy w/o getting a new device for your money, so you have to weigh in your usage carefully and see if you actually need the unlimited... clearly Bean needs the unlimited though... I don't like defending Verizon, but 40GB on 3/4g is quite...

That's the LGPL. For the regular GPL, dynamic linking to a GPL library still counts as a derived work.Sarevok wrote:From what I understand if you are not statically linking it does not count as a derived work.

Re: Acquisitization of a new laptop
If you're looking for something a bit beefier than what Zaune is suggesting and capable of playing low-end games, I'd suggest an Lenovo X120e, which is around 500$. The other thinkpads are good if your requirements are beefier.

Re: Google buys Motorola
Battery life on the Nexus One was absolutely terrible, and the low RAM - even for a 1st gen droid - made the OS run like it was anemic. Low RAM? It had 512, which is still what the average single-core phone has. Prior to it, the most powerful Android phone was the original Droid, which had 256MB.I ...

Re: Google buys Motorola
The google phones (Nexus One) were made by HTC, and were actually pretty good- the problem was they weren't sold in retail stores which limited uptake. The Nexus S was made by Samsung and is/was available on Sprint and T-Mobile and was sold at Best Buy, but was slightly obsolete upon release.

I was under the impression that was more due to political reasons/infighting between the descendants of Genghis. They did manage to sack Baghdad and crush the Russians for a time after all.
