Maybe because she had a female name?

It was a dynamic website, mirroring it wouldn't be a trivial task, and a snapshot of a site that adds new stuff every day will become useless with time

Political correctness is the plague of our time.

MS supporting Vulkan instead of DX would be shooting at their own feet. Makes 0 sense to them.

I hope somebody mirrors this elsewhere. This is just perverse.

For what? Everything is available on the Internet. I have used Windows 8, 8.1 and 10 for years now and I have never felt the need to install anything from the Store.

>you can't use the store without this

Being honest, what would I want to use the store for?

Password hash? Do they mean an auth token?

The world has lost its tech startup community vibe, thankfully.

Thank you very much, it's appreciated.

I hope you get more employees and/or funding, because 15 seconds for an "Already up-to-date." git pull is the norm with your service.

With mine I get:

    Host example.com not found: 5(REFUSED)

Plasma is as brittle as always. Years in and still is half finished. Like the developer rushed to implement the mockup so it looks good in screenshots, but then polished absolutely nothing about it.

By copying them? That's hardly a good long term strategy.

Everything that isn't calls???

Maybe they've fixed it but the address bar had an atrocious amount of glow. It is clearly out of place.

Obvious answer.

I don't answer anybody as a policy

Exactly. If you need something, use WhatsApp, for Christ's sake. Don't make me interrupt whatever I'm doing to talk to you.

I completely agree. This is a checklist for someone who isn't directly responsible for anybody.

Of course if you have children, you'd be paranoid at any number-what if it's school? A teacher? The hospital? That's hairy stuff.

I have this checklist:

* If it's a withheld/private number, I don't answer.

* If it's a number I don't recognise, I don't answer.

* If it's a number I recognise from work/a client, I don't answer.

* If it's a number I recognise from a friend, I don't answer.

* If it's a number I recognise from a direct relative, I don't answer.

* If it's a number I recognise from a very direct relative and I've been called several times in the last minutes, I start pondering if I should pick it up or not. I usually do not, but ymmv

I'd rather see a corporation go bankrupt with their employees treated well, honestly.

As someone who's dealt with this for years and years, let me tell you CyanogenMod is crap.

1) They don't actually support any devices. All devices, except the ones they sell (like that Chinese one they struggled for over one year to release, the OnePlus) are community supported.

2) Their own stuff (everything they put on top of AOSP) is of a very very bad quality, code-wise and UX-wise.

3) They are highly irresponsible. They have a Jira bug tracker with triagers that don't know anything about coding or Android at all. They have a Gerrit code review system where they antagonise all external contributors, nitpicking on everything, while Cyanogen, Inc. employees push everything they want into the tree without any code review, breaking stuff in the process (something that happens very often).

A big chunk of apps require at least 4.0. Or maybe they don't but if you have an older version you will have to use an older version of the app with less features.

The amount of work you need to bring an Android device to a modern version is very, very big.

Does a new kernel version work? (Android will require it). Will the device drivers work on a new kernel version? Will driver blobs be compatible?

Chipset manufacturers will definitely not send you a new version of a driver if you're not the mobile manufacturer (and sometimes, not even if you are). You're on your own, updating the driver, or writing a shim that acts as a proxy between the driver, kernel, Android, etc. It's just not feasible.

What? All Samsung phones, at least in Europe, come unlocked and can be reflashed easily.

Sure, tell that to Reddit.

I'm certainly positive it's faster than Ruby, Python and Java.

That's funny because in my experience php is one of the fastest languages.
