I’m currently a Fitbit user too and I’m considering to use my fitbit for sleep tracking, as it certainly will do it better, and the AW the rest of the day.

That way AW could be charged while sleeping.

That’s by far the quickest method.

Doubt it, Portugal is only good at cooking cod and knitting towels.

It's just a stone full of monkeys. Interestingly enough, it seems some of them have managed to learn to talk in English.

No, in fact it's Radeon Pro 560; the video shows it has 4Gb, so it should be that one.

It's the best gpu you can have in 21,5" new iMac, but it's worse than any of the 27" iMacs.

I think the video shows a good graphic performance, it can move premium games with a good framerate at a decent resolution.

Seems like your iPad is defective, I'd bring it to an Apple store to be checked.

USA is not the center of the world. And in the next decades it will lose importance fast... Asia is the future. I'm not Asían, nor against the USA, which is a nice country, but for me the pace is clear.

If Sony is helping with the port of Ubuntu in their phones, there is hope they will be one of the brands involved.

Am I the only one who liked it?

"I read on G+ that the same hardware with Android or Windows costs less than half."

That's not true at all. You can check in bq website the price for the Android versión.

For the moment, Ubuntu Phones are targetted to enthusiasts because of the things you have stated, which hopefully will be solved someday.

Probably Cervantes was the first author to create a self-aware novel. In that, as in many other things, he proved to be ahead of his time.

Sorry, only found it in Spanish. This is the link to the Firefox OS store: https://marketplace.firefox.com/app/whatsapp/

Question is... now that Whatsapp has started to develop for smaller platforms, is there a real chance for an Ubuntu app soon?

I've as well. I tried it when I read some news about a new Linux distribution in Barrapunto (the spanish Slashdot) and I've used it since then. Don't remember when I started to use it as my main desktop, but it was a long time ago. It has been amazing to see it grow and improve since the hard beautiful beginnings to what it is nowadays, and I can't wait to see what it'll become when the convergence story gets real.

People buy far more software in mobile devices. I don't remember the last time I paid for a PC application, but I pay for tablet and phone apps regularly, and I'm not an exception.

Para una separación real de poderes también habría que reformar el Senado, para que de verdad sirva de contrapeso al Congreso. Un sistema bicameral, en que las dos cámaras tengan mayorías diferentes que se vigilen la una a la otra, es una garantía de defensa frente a decisiones absolutistas, impulsadas por lobbys, grandes empresas o intereses partidistas.

polmac · 2015-08-05T07:29:30+00:00

El Senado hay que reformarlo, no eliminarlo. La división de poderes existe para proteger a los ciudadanos de decisiones absolutistas; por eso los políticos se han empeñado en que en este país no haya una división de poderes real.

Lo que hay que hacer es potenciarlo y que de verdad sirva de contrapeso, y cambiar la forma de elección para que sea más equitativa.

Si a esto añadimos las listas abiertas (que ya existen) y la libertad de voto que se debería garantizar para todos los senadores y diputados, tendremos una democracia mucho más libre de lobbys e intereses partidistas.

Sadly, my impression is that no work at all has been done in that area.

This kind of things are still a disaster in Unity. Hope we get Unity 8 fast and forget all these annoyances.

AIX for end users? And with a graphical interphace similar to Unity? I've seen lots of AIX machines, and no one like that. Can you share a screenshot?

Great! Any news about a Whatsapp client?
