Are you kidding? I use Skype all the time to video chat with family. I'm not talking about Skype for Business. Skype gets its usage from individuals, not companies. Teams is a business app, mostly. It really sucks compared to Skype when it comes to UI. I use Teams at work, and it's fine...

In regards to monopolies (though slightly off-topic), are there any modern motherboards with built-in audio not powered by Realtek? My god, their sound drivers are an absolute mess now that we have "premium" audio solutions like Nahimic from SteelSeries (which is absolute garbage and makes...

Can we all just not buy any video card until it's back to max 2 slot width? Sorry, but the way the form factor is going...

Considering all of the sound driver and sound issues in general in Windows 10/11, I can't wait... Realtek audio drivers were so much better back in the day when the entire package was 250MB+ with Realtek Audio Control console bundled with the drivers packed full of features such as "Loudness...

Heck yes! And my XP Atom netbook from 2009 still online too using New Moon browser :p Just because it's not officially supported doesn't mean it's inherently a security risk. Plus, it's the latest OS that's going to get targeted the most :p. Reverse security is a thing just like reverse...

Good! I would develop apps for iOS if I didn't have to pay a ridiculous monthly fee and could distribute my apps from outside the app store and control my own payments and licensing terms. Screw Apple. As it is now, I still hope they die.

Meanwhile, I feel like my AMD Ryzen 1700X is the most unstable processor I've ever owned. So many weird problems, and it seems like no one knows why? I even bought a 3900X, but while in use, it just failed on me, and the entire system was hosed. Memtest complained about failing to initialize...

Since our leaders are mainly sociopaths, it's hard to trust anyone. I've dealt with several different sociopaths in positions of power as I have moved through life, so I do honestly believe that yes, people (especially the sociopaths running the world) do not represent our best interests as...

You trust the CDC? lol

Just a few links containing information as to why we should further study 5G: https://www.thescottishsun.co.uk/news/scottish-news/4288258/5g-mobile-network-scotland-ee-risks/ https://ehtrust.org/key-issues/cell-phoneswireless/5g-networks-iot-scientific-overview-human-health-risks/ Mainstream...

I can't wait to get cancer from 5G! Tough choice. Cancer or slower internet (and 5g not really being that much faster as mentioned earlier in this thread). Cancer! Yay! I love how we actually study effects of new technologies before deploying them... oh wait... nevermind. We don't. We're...

Anyone know of a better PayPal alternative that has something similar to their IPN and doesn't cost as much for receiving payments online for a small business?

Windows 7 masterpiece UI? Hardly. XP had the best UI. It was so simple, quick, responsive, and easy-to-use. It's been all downhill since XP. What Linux lacks is a GUI file explorer as fast and efficient as Explorer.exe. That, and being able to play all windows games. Once those two things...

Which they still didn't fix. Still too much desync. Too bad because if that could be fixed, it would be the best game ever. I think they just released new skins and fixed easy hanging fruit bugs. It's fixed. lmfao

Win XP (including x64) / Win 7 4 life. Still waiting for React OS.

Terrible for so many reasons. Chrome did it first, and now Firefox wants to follow in its footsteps (as usual - Google sets web standards now, and Mozilla rolls over and says we better do it too). There are so many use-cases where auto play sound and video are legit and valid. Yes, some sites...

Could hardly watch the video. FPS were so low, I'd never want to play that crappy game.

I hate Apple so much. One can't develop apps on iOS without letting them have full control over your licensing / money making system. I understand your app not being listed on the official store, but why can't I develop an app that is installed manually? It's pretty much next to impossible...

My 1996 Toyota Tercel gets 50 MPG. /thread

This is excellent. We'd love to see them do more of this!

As much as I hate IE and Edge (and never use them), at least it was a third option (different engine). The major players are only Firefox and Chrome today. The problem with everyone using the Chrome engine is that Google forces and makes up new standards and restrictions all the time. Apps...

Or you could use Pale Moon which isn't developed by a single kid. And, New Moon (an XP patched version of Pale Moon) is the only modern browser you can still use on XP... like I am right now on my atom netbook (first gen).

Yes, Colorado is very aggressive on this too. If they're going to start playing this game, I'm going to quit buying in general. Screw the economy, and thanks for killing it for us. We now live in a country where it's not worth creating a business, not worth innovating, and not even worth...

Spoiled much? If it runs well on older hardware, it will run great on everything else. More people should cater to the lowest common denominator. It's called efficiency which no one seems to care about anymore. I can hardly use a browser these days on my 2009 atom netbook without lagging...

I guess you didn't even read the article in the link you posted. It is a generic catch-all web page with basically a whole lot of nothing on it. I dislike Windows, but come on now, at least post something of relevancy. I guess the people who liked your post didn't read the link you used...

We could always just get rid of money. That would solve the whole problem. We need to evolve beyond greed.

Just use Pale Moon. It's Firefox without the retardation.

My Ryzen build has been nothing but a nightmare, and I've never even tried to overclock it. I had the same issue as this guy with random BSODs in Windows 7 and Windows 10 indicating Memory Management, Driver IRQL Not Less or Equal, and Faulty Hardware...

Unfortunately, in Windows, we don't have any desktop environment choices. All we have is that crappy bland 1980s theme in Windows 10. XP and 7 were so much nicer... Microsoft has always sucked when it comes to third party themes. They could support and embrace it, but instead, they just...

MATE FTW! Less QQ, more pew pew. If it ain't broken, don't fix it. Seems like all software nowadays is broken because people take a good thing and ruin it.

Sprees?

I'm curious. Does Google have access to such information? Social security numbers and MAC addresses? Don't they just get an IP address and that's it?

Using XP here on my 2009 atom 10" netbook. Works great with 2GB RAM and a SSD. Still going strong in 2017. And yes, I'm online with it. I think the whole XP being so easy to hack is just a bunch of non-sense they use as propaganda to get people to use an OS with more backdoors in it (Windows...

Each browser has so many bugs too... it's a wonder websites mostly work. Web development is such a messy profession due to a lack of standards, too many complexities, and different markup handling by each engine. And then, meshed in are new features. Browsers have to be the most complicated...

When it comes to debugging Javascript and inspecting DOM elements, Chrome is the king. I used to hate and talk some serious trash about Chrome (still not a fan of their UI but hate Firefox's Australis UI too), but when the debugging tools in Chrome were enhanced to feature live timed snapshots...

Yah, I hope they come back in stock. I would totally buy one for that price. Guess I'll stick with my GTX 480 until then... :|

Sales tax. :|

This really isn't that big of a deal. Google probably thinks there's no way an infected file can end up in Google Drive. Also, if you're redirected after signing in and are prompted to download a file, you should probably use common sense and NOT download it. If you do download it, well that...

Nothing is wrong with an open highway until it's abused. In my opinion, abuse comes from people with no empathy (sociopaths). The internet could be fixed if we fix society first, but those in power who are running the show are usually sociopaths themselves. :(

Operating system patches won't fix the problem. The worst exploits lie in different internet protocols themselves.
