I own one of the original Pinebooks, and for $99 it is a great little machine.

Comparing it to my MacBook Pro... it's terrible.

It has some flaws, and it may be underpowered for things like YouTube, it works flawlessly as a small note taker that has an extremely long battery life and a decent screen/keyboard. It's also really nice for having a Linux machine around that most dongles/serial consoles just work with when you head into the datacenter to deal with a Cisco device that isn't playing nice.

For the price point, you get a lot. As an owner of a Pinebook, I am looking forward to the Pinebook Pro.

I think one of the issue with people from silicon valley trying to make consumer products is the fact that it will always be too expensive for people outside of silicon valley.

When you live there you have a huge salary and the feeling that 1k is nothing, so selling a scooter for 1k is nothing, reality is that SV is a world of its own. That's complex product management issue in my opinion

In this case (as well as many potentially similar ones), I'm pretty glad this is happening. That said, are there no SLAAP protections in arbitration cases? As I alluded to earlier, I imagine Uber has enough reasonable cases for arbitration that SLAAP-like laws wouldn't protect them, but I can imagine other situations where a company could be bombarded with frivolous arbitration claims.

I think I'm sympathetic to the idea that if you insert a binding arbitration clause, you've chosen to forgo protections like SLAAP. However, say you didn't insert a binding arbitration clause, but didn't expressly forbid it and offer it as an option. Couldn't a coordinated campaign cost a company huge sums of money, as the company bears most of the arbitration costs?

Again, I don't think this is happening in this situation, and I can't say I've heard of it happening, but it's something that came to mind.

> Also "it's nice to believe you don't have to suffer to reach your goals" is a silly and moralistic thing to say. But it typifies the american "scientific understanding" of weight loss.

Saying you can achieve your goals with less effort if you BUY NOW is even more american. Even if no one is asking you to actually pay money for a program, they're still shilling an idea.

Technically, they're actually both:

"Water enters the forebay via tunnels from the Niagara River controlled via the International Control Dam upstream of the natural falls. Water in the forebay is then either pumped up into the upper reservoir or immediately sent down over the escarpment downstream of the natural falls into the Robert Moses Power Station turbines."

> However unlike a traditional ICE, an EV has 100% torque with almost zero latency.

Insignificant I'm afraid. A good track driver never has the engine outside the power band, even on the slowest corners. In race mode almost all automatic gearboxes do this for you. However, some auto gearboxes shift down on full throttle, even in manual mode, which is frustrating if not infuriating, so direct-drive is a welcome change.

> And the overheating problem is negated by virtue of the fact that it's an EV and can take advantage of regenerative braking.

If you're using regenerative braking on track then you're most probably losing time, unless it can capture the kinetic-to-heat transfer from the pads and discs. You should be maximum throttle right up until the braking zone, by which point you're mostly using full pedal travel to get the car down to the ideal entry speed and maybe even trail braking into the corner to improve rotation.

However, now that I think about it, regenerative braking makes a lot more sense on tracks such as the Nordschleife where for some corners you don't have braking zones as such, but minor taps of the pedal to set up the weight distribution of the car for the corner to improve turn in. This could be a valid use case of regenerative braking.

>I was not comparing Flash to the JavaScript of the era

But that's the entire point!!! People didn't use Flash because they felt like it. People used Flash because there were things you could do with Flash that you could not do with HTML/JS. Remember there was a time that Flash was the best way to do video.

>Flash didn't seem "fast" to me (on Linux, Android and OSX).

Let's leave subjectivity out of it. If you ran a standard benchmarks and compare to JavaScript of the day, Flash would beat it. That's what I meant by fast.

Here's some metrics for a FlasCC compiled AS3 compared to C++:
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1PjMDwh4ZbJMMoo-G8vdK...

>Flash was clearly inefficient, it didn't use multicore

Neither does JavaScript (without WebWorkers). Neither does Node.js. Then again, Flash did get Worker support around 2012. And though your code was executed in a single thread, the actual rendering was delegated to the runtime, which was multi-threaded or backed by GPU.

>GPUs or hardware decoders

It sure did. Stage3D (think WebGL equivalent) was introduced in 2011. Video decoding delegated to hardware decoders since forever. Alchemy/FlaCC (WebAssembly equivalent) was released around 2009/2010. In many ways Flash was the vanguard of where HTML5 ended up going.

>The user experience of Facebook Flash Scrabble was awful (at least on OSX).

To be fair, Flash never ran well on OSX. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't as good as on Windows.

>Java applets could do that since well before 2008.

Java applets were an alternative to Flash, but Flash was lighter and had much broader support. It was better for video, better for vector graphics and 2D animations. But yes, Java applets were used to gain functionality that wasn't available in the web just like Flash.
Let me clarify, the signal is that you can be swindled for $25 and won't be fighting back.

I have a RK3399-based (same chip as in the PBP) chromebook -- ASUS Chromebook Flip CA101P -- as one of my daily rides. It has no issue playing 1080@60fps & 4K@30 youtubes (I cannot physically output more than 4K@30 to my TV). Its Chrome browser is among the fastest browser experiences I get in my daily routine (which includes linux and windows desktops). On top of it, that chromebook lasts 6-10h of productive usage on a single charge.

Of course, Google's ChromeOS level of polish is a far cry from most 'freely assembled' distros out there, but last time I checked, the ubuntu/debian images for the PBP were getting there in terms of working features and performance.
I have never hit the power button by mistake, you have to hold it down for a while anyway.
LineageOS [0] is also worth a look, it's like Android without all the un-uninstallable Google spyware. No play services, no need to log in to a G account to use the device, no G apps (but you can install them separately if desired), no background data harvesting, etc.

The open source MicroG project [1] takes things a step further by acting as a drag-and-drop replacement for Google Play Services. It provides a FOSS location provider backend, allows the device passes SafetyNet checks (Snapchat/Pokemon Go/online banking), and generally makes for a seamless mobile experience.

I've been using both for ~6 months now and the only noticeable difference is GPS taking a few seconds longer to get a satellite lock. Definitely worth a shot if you're interested in de-googling your Android.

There's your problem right there... Why make a scooter with tyres instead of solid rubber with suspension? That's what Segway did with the Ninebot, and their scooters are great. So confused right now.. Tyres are meant for the low end/cheap scooters, not the high end stuff.
Did you read the comment you're replying to? Its whole point is that lay people don't understand sophisticated cryptography like homomorphic encryption, which makes it difficult to trust, whereas they do understand and trust paper.

No one said this was a problem, the commenter was simply stating the comparison.

The commenter explained that in literally the second part of the sentence:

> > It barely ran with the stock software (they had to install updates/new software to get it running)

Again, as stated by the commenter, it was using youtube in the distro that comes with the machine.

> ...Is expected that you're able to boot Raspberry Pi images on completely different devices?

It's not too far fetched, they're not very different at all, they're both quad-core A53 (ARMv8) 64-bit based SOCs with similar clock speeds, and the some of the Pine boards with more RAM can run Win10.

> Open source hardware projects don't have the luxuries that multi-billion dollar behemoths like Samsung do.

Pine64 is just a Chinese knockoff of the Raspberry Pi, and is more closed than RPi due to the AllWinner SOCs they use. They have more support and reliability issues too.

There's no need to be rude, but if you're going to be rude, you should at least be accurate.

I've never really wanted to tinker much with my smartphone. I want it to do a handful of simple tasks (calls, texts, maps, music, light web browsing), and otherwise get out of the way.

Similarly, I switched to Mac OS X awhile back after years on Linux and BSD, because I realized that I would never want to tinker with (the source code of) my web browser or word processor, and there was a whole tinker-friendly Unix system sitting right next door. Pace, Stallman, but I don't need the freedom to tinker everywhere.

The thing that I was missing in the last version, and most of why I didn’t buy it, was that the GPIO present on the Pine SOC boards (and Raspberry Pi’s, etc.) were not exposed in any way, shape or form on the last version. I think it would be really neat to have some flavor of internal GPIO (exposed pads on the edge of something are just fine, a low-profile connector with a fanout cable would be great for repair, too) that could be used for hobbyist projects or some fancy integrated controller for something like industrial robotics.

This existed in Guild Wars PvP.

There are a few cases already with fines around 2.8% of revenue, and those fines don't mean the DPA will go away. The expectation is that these fines are paid _and_ the reason for the fine is resolved.

Turnover in the 2.8% case (Taxa 4x35 in Denmark) was from Fall 2018 (start of investigation) to March 2019 (when the DPA reported the incident to the police and "recommended" that fine). Sadly the only follow-ups on the case that I could find are behind paywalls (so I can't read them), but apparently the DPA isn't done with them yet.

It's all a matter of exercising pressure, and it seems that the authorities are willing to do that.
