mame as javascript only worked because distribution of mame is garbage.
go ahead. dont belive me? go on and try to install it now. you will waste days just trying to figure out where you can find some version and then how to hook up that nice frontend you saw on some video demo of a rare mame setup mame.
what they did was excellent. because the alternative was messy.
vlc is already available in a very nice package everywhere. Insead of that futile effort, just convince everyone to just publish the media file and maybe subtitles, in a stardard way, instead of in a proprietary flash-player replacement or proprietary stream app. Your browser will already send it to vlc just fine.
If you actually happen to NEED unlimited data, and someone offers you unlimited data at some speed, and when you go to use it it is not that speed. And now your system does not work as designed.
Are you a happy consumer then? and since everyone get fooled by the false marketing, the actual providers of unlimited data at a certain speed is now out of business, because they had to charge for the real deal.
This is not about having sane limits. It's about false advertising with the only goal of killing competition and stealing business.
And btw, all carriers do that. It's a shame FCC is a tool for AT&T and Verizon nowadays on their plan to split the country into two monopolies. I will bet you money that they will never get a fine like that. ever.
i've had phone (3g unlimited[0]); business DSL (connected 0.4miles from the trunk!); and Cable service from AT&T.
I can say with 100% of confidence, they oversell like crazy and are limited on both wireless spectrum as their pipes capabilities.
Even if they have much better coverage than Tmobile where i live and work, i will still endure it and not give them my service anymore.
[0] remember they charged extra if you had an iphone? ha! always used android and nokia. Also of note, they managed to overcharge my all-unlimited account for $800 above the contract for two consecutive months.
anyone understand what exactly is the system broadcasting to the new DHCP server? I can't imagine any system is so bad to the point of sending anything more sensitive than a user name
because i may also come to the point where i am a direct competitor to google, but i will never get there because i can't scrap any site like they can.
your next argument may very well be a very racist one with the very same excuse you used above.
Summary: google is still google. It still have tons of heads and all the profit remained there (android, youtube, etc). Alphabet is just a place for the litigation-prone products, such as Nest and self driving cars.
the priv keyboard is nice, if you have the blackberry keyboard selected.
But as soon as you close the physical keyboard, and get the blackberry soft keyboard, it is pure garbage! years behind the most basic free keyboard. The top 3 softkeyboards for me (swype, google, hacker) have zero support for anything on the hardware keyboard. I can't navigate the cursor, i can't double click alt, i can't swype up, heck i can't even get a word prediction/correction band to show up!
So it is a futile fight with which keyboard you have selected. Then add two languages and now every time you want to switch the language, you also risk switching the keyboard you have selected. It is brain damaging to try to use it.
now, if i have root and can hook up to keyboard open activities on all keyboards (or if blackberry released the source to their keyboard i wouldn't need to do that) i can check if the physical keyboard is open and change it or something.
i bought this phone only to "vote with my wallet" that more companies should make android phones with keyboards. It is pure garbage in any other aspect. It is the lame phablet size. The keyboard doesn't even have a DOT or COMMA key, let alone numbers, tab, etc.
The only redeeming features is the OLED screen and keyboard. But then they made the software for the keyboard pure garbage, and filled the OS with bloatware.
I've been waiting for root on this phone so i can start to hack away for months. But blackberry with its cave man corporate mentality, thinks that giving out root will scare the 5 old men still buying their products. I can't even buy a developer version like motorola (which have the same mentality) allowed before.
So, thank you for the sloppy coding, Qualcomm! Thank you for not doing your homework, Blackberry! and thank you AT&T for holding OS updates until you can bother to patch your bloatware!
i put this hosts file on every device/router that i touch.
It works fully local. So infinitely (and this is not even a hyperbole) faster and you won't have to exchange one privacy hole for another on the "cloud".
