Living Room / Re: Ballmer Stepping Down

While Windows 8 is a pain in the ass, Ballmer made a lot of good decisions. A pity.

Precisely, but probably there are Android users reading this, right?

I'm not sure if Wakelock detectors work on Windows Phone at all.

Yay, another "my favorite editor" thread.

GNU nano, anyone?
(For edits aside coding stuff, like config files.)

I'd also throw in AkelPad.

The real thing tastes like Club-Mate which has been left open for three weeks behind the fridge. Why would anyone want that?

A German "hacker" (and Pirate Party) drink is Club-Mate, some mate tea with carbon dioxide. Pretty nice, tastes like dead grandparents but makes your heart run a marathon. It may lead to lack of sleep though.

And I'm having some coffee now.

 You mean like any other software on a Windows machine?

Sorry, my fault. There is.

Also, while we're at it: Why exactly are Linsux users too dumb/lazy to spell "Windows" correctly? Can't Linux stand out without having superior operating systems bashed verbally?

You don't even need to run an anti-virus program.

Living Room / Re: "Half of our users block ads. Now what?"

« Last post by Tuxman on May 16, 2013, 02:58 AM »

Interestingly, these days some of the largest German "online newspapers" (spiegel.de, faz.net et cetera) started a campaign against ad blockers by showing large red "pls disable your ad blocker because we'll die if you don't" sobbing banners on top of the page.

The result:

The request from German publishers to turn off #adblock led to +129% @AdblockPlus installs & +167% donations. Thanks!

I like it.
