Mine keeps flipping back and forth between the new admin center and the old one. Rather annoying.

@RamblingBiped said in Charter-Time Warner Deal approved by FCC and DoJ:

TWC wrote the text book on how not to do customer service. They are by far one of the worst companies I have ever HAD to do business with. If you currently have service with Charter you have my condolences.

Hopefully it will get better since Charter is purchasing Time-Warner. Although... why improve something they will have an even bigger monopoly on.

Yeah, we were surprised too. But before Captcha we had thousands of bots in almost no time. Afterwards basically zero. A few got through, but they looked manual and never posted. We cull heavily, so the rolls remain small while the number of accounts made over time are much higher. We've had probably 10,000 accounts actually created. Maybe less, but many thousands for sure (I manually deleted nearly 4,000 of them personally almost two full years ago.) We delete all the time, but now it is "as they are created." The mods get a message that an account is created and if it is obviously a bot or spammer, they get deleted within a few minutes.

The ones I see most commonly are "London escort agencies."

TL:DR where are the pictures.....

😛

Still going over this in some degree... I have a decent project for this. Hope he will manage to offer it for purchase.

You could always solder up your own Atmega328P onto the same form factor. More of a pain sure, but shouldn't be that difficult.

@scottalanmiller RIght now Xbox 360 and PS3, but they are all talking about getting the new ones.

I got a PS2 and PS3 too, just when the PS3 and PS4 came out 😉 I get them a generation behind when they are effectively free.

@Minion-Queen said in Free eBook: Build to Lead:

we have 165 lbs. of legos here. Yes I know the exact weight.

And how many of them have you stepped on with bare feet?

More than I will ever recover fully from.

I first heard about tmux here at ML. I've gotten to where I like it better than screen most of the time.

This makes me want to get an RP3 just to run this and try it out.

@travisdh1 I agree, not very impressed that Mint included this but did not test it or respond to people with issues. Better to not have it in there.

Do you have the Cinnamon or Mate Desktop? It would make sense that you couldn't run a Gnome application without running in a Gnome environment. Although I could be mistaken.

Just because you run a different GUI doesn't mean you can't run apps meant for a different one. KDE and GNOME apps normally run just fine in the other type of desktop assuming all dependencies are met.

Cinnamon is Gnome 3, though.

Hrm, just gets worse and worse.

Yeah, I'd expect @StrongBad to have good luck here. I see the same thing, doesn't run.

All the "best" magazines.

That, too.

It's not bad...but the price is super high when it's not MUCH better than the three (1.2Ghz quad core stock, 1GB RAM for £32) will be interested to see how it develops...

Different architecture, though. Very different possible use cases. AMD64 is a lot more flexible. This will run Windows 10 just fine or a Linux desktop.

ah, didnt think about that...so it's verging on Intel Computestick territory rather than Pi territory..?

Correct. This is a quad core Atom, which is AMD64. So instead of ARM, which is great, this is a PC. So you can run essentially anything you can imagine.
