potato, tomato…

It was a slight exaggeration, but curl and libcurl are genuinely used pretty much everywhere. Including NASA space missions.

Don’t leave us hanging…

Yup, they have amazing specs for relatively low prices. The catch, as we agree, is in the QC.

Hey, if you already bought it, keep using it as long as it serves you. I’m still using the asus laptop that taught me this lesson, even after its touchscreen failed completely (about a month after the end of warranty) and it has a whole bunch of issues to watch out for, like sometimes staying partially on after shutdown and overheating in my bag. But it can still compute and run Linux Mint fine, so I’m not throwing it away. Just covered the asus logo with a sticker to save some face.

But now that you know, don’t buy anything new by asus. I hope for you that your Ally stays good for as long as you use it, but my experience and others’ suggests that in a year or two it’ll start to show its many flaws. The touchscreen is pretty important for a device like that, isn’t it? Good luck.

Daniel Stenberg isn’t a random person, he is the lead developer of curl which is the backbone of quite literally every networked device on the planet and outside of it. The curl project supports a very large number of protocols. His opinion does mean something here.

That said, this does need to be clarified in the Wikipedia page, and it’s still possible that his criticism isn’t actually relevant in the end. I’m still reading about this.

I’ll do you one better: do not buy ANYTHING made by Asus. That stuff’s built to fail as fast as possible.

I used to use Vivaldi and liked it a lot, why wouldn’t you recommend it?

(Nowadays I just use Firefox. No particular reason)

Both are perfectly readable to me, Perhaps that other user had some issue that showed him a low-res version. Federation isn’t perfect.

seems worse to me if anything. unless OP used to be worse and they switched it

I can’t see what the other bottles are, the picture’s too compressed. Only “school glue” is readable.

Do they pour the coffee from one mug to the next for each sip, or are they drinking 3 coffees each just to hold a conversation?

You can see his shadow on the ground.

If the car looks like that, he can’t be dancing away, can he? Man, adrenaline is one hell of a thing

with that bulk and fuel’s energy density, how is it only 1.5 hours?!

go to the hospital. they’re used to it.

Was this before Twitter added the ability to edit?

I think 95% of it is flying over my head, so I’m in the uncomfortable position of asking for a joke to be explained. Please?

I can see the screw, pulley, and wedge (the tip). In a pinch, the whole thing can act as a lever. But I can’t see any wheel and axle (no, the pulley isn’t one), and there’s definitely no inclined plane. Randall got ripped off.
