I understand that for the time being they need to follow geolimits posed upon them from those licensing out the content. Hopefull this will mature too. Hollywood is still stuck in the old days in regards to distribution.
But the simple fact is that. 15000 titles in the US, compared to around 3000 titles where I live, is not worth the price they are asking.
Lower the price so match the amount of content and it's fine. But paying the same as the US with 1/5th of the content. No.
I'm not saying that global warming, or climate change, or whatever you want to call it doesn't happen. I'm just a bit sceptical about the "Either you are with us or you are against us"-mentality of it all.
Let's do what we can to compesate and at the same time be open to information for all sides.
It's worth mentioning that Michael Ossmann (creator of HackRF) is recording an online course about SDR and digital signal processing. It's ongoing, so there will be more videos as times go by.
It mentions hackrf but you can do get by just fine with a regulrar cheap dongle. https://greatscottgadgets.com/...
I have a pretty big dvd (and now bluray) collection but found myself using netflix and itunes (apple tv) more andmore. I use itunes to rent movies, as I do not want to build a collection tied to ecosystem like apple (or any other for that mater).
I rent movies on itunes, watch series and movies on netflix, and if I stuble across anything really good then I'll buy it on dvd/bd. Because I really like to own good movies.
But during the years I have very rarly fetched one of my dvds and played it. Untill a month ago when I just completed the entire collection into plex.
Mtyhbusters was a really entertaining show to watch in the beginning. A little science, but mostly fun, And that was really refreshing
I stopped watching when the time spent watching the actually program was less than will happen/has happened runs.
(it felt like it, I haven't actually timed it)
My rule of thumb is this. If a show contains reoccurring:
1) Annoying laugh track
2) Will happen / has happened
3) Two characters facing the same camera in a lengthy drama dialog (strong soap opera indicator)
...it's best to find something else to watch.
I wish they would create a condensed version of Mythbusters with just the actual program and not any fluff.
I switches to a cheap colour laser a few years ago and it's just so much easier to deal with. No more cleaning before printing, hvite stripes in printout, etc
The only problem is the HP driver.
For some reason the driver constantly pings the printer ip, even when connected to a different network. And the ICMP payload seems to be pretty random.
Triggered the IDS at work, so now I need to remove the driver after each use. But I don't really print that much at home from my company laptop so it's not a big issue.
But they really could spend a little more time on cleaning up their drivers.
I think they are really feeling the pressure from Microsoft integrating more and more features in Visual Studio that used to be resharper only. I use resharper at work and also pay for a private license, and I think it's pretty good.
I would love to see some details about this.
One would think that basic credential traversal would be the preferred method once inside. MITM redirection of SMB traffic would probably set of a few IDS alerts.
Man in the middle using SMB share. That requires someone to be on the local network to begin with.
Could be used after pivoting, but not as a first foothold attack.
I think you should read it again.
It doesn't advocate fake friendships at all. It highlights that you will get more from life if you actually listen and care about people around you. You will like them better and others will like you better.
Actually it is much much more complicated than that.
I agree that for the most part, the information you wrote is enough.
But there really are a lot more to metabolism than these simple rules.
A few simple examples:
Ketones kan leave the body through breath or bio (wc)
Insulin can, if not regulated correctly by the body, convert energy to fat, before the body can make use of that energy.
Thyroxin can prevent energy for being used by muscles.
And also; are calories really an exact measurment for energy available to the body?
The answer is no.
Calories where originaly calculated by burning material and measuring how much heat it produced. Now they just use the amount of fat, carbs and protein and multiply by a set factor for each. With a few adjustments.
The problem is that the body doesn't actually burn anything, and amount of potential energy in something is not the same as what the body will absorb.
We also need a quite a few fatty acids. The body will probably not just convert these neccesary fatty acids as "fuel". Even though they count quite high in calories.
Things are more complicated than we think, and we have really just scratched the surface on how the body actually work.
Well to be fair... This was a kickstarter project and he did do iterations with test-samples for everyone to listen and give feedback on.
So it's a bit more targeted.
That being said, people listen to different music when they code.
I did buy this one and it's a nice additon to my playlist for certain tasks.
It is odd that PC manufacturers are willing to ruin their brands just to earn a few extra bucks.
I have never owned a mac before, but after my last encounter with a high-end Vaio I’m seriously considering a macbook pro as my next laptop. Don’t get me wrong, it ws a very nice laptop. Good battery, expansions and a carbon chassis.
HP (and Compaq before that) business laptops where ok after a reinstall, but the Vaio was just a pain. Shared libraries needed to be installed in a certain order, or it would freak out and tell you that the battery was critical and just shut down. Also support for Windows 8 was just appalling.
Anyway, it shouldn' t be neccesary to reinstall a brand new laptop. They really take the fun out of unboxing it.
It looks like Microsoft cracked the code with their Surface Pro. Clean install and a continuing brand name.
Leneovo (and others) could even do what Amazon does with Kindle. Charge more for a clean version.

I got myself a TP link earlier that included a backdoor, mentioned earlier on slashdot.
http://tech.slashdot.org/story...
So I asked support when they would fix it. The reply I got told me to just make sure nobody got into my LAN and things would be ok.
Never bying anything TP again. Ever.
"That is our focus going forward"
Good to know they are not going backwards in time, or sideways.
The other 4 of 5 is just biased by wording the question in a carefull way or with an odd scale.
As Michael Chrichton pointed out once, it's odd that Nasa changed the 1880 temperature chart after publishing it.
I couldn't find a good link, but this blog covers it pretty good:

Did they forget this alreay?

Or maybe they had an epiphany?
CEO: "What do you mean some of our users didn't get infected?"
Hard to trace? Just follow the money.

Just amazing how much I now watch my old movies.

I fucking hate the subscription model.
Maybe it's time to try coderush or something.
Thank you for the link. I have red that some time ago.
Still not clear on why sudo su - is bad practice. It looks very similar to sudo -i
Why is sudo su bad practice compared to sudo -i ?

Yeah. You are right :)
But I _wish_ it would be odd
Carbon fiber. :)
Would be cool with a diamond unibody, but it's a bit out of my pricerange.
No.
Just a joke.
"You mean we can pay Lenovo to install crap on all their laptops?"
"Yeah"
"What the... that's just... well.. go for it!"

I recently had to purchase a toslink cable, and all I could find was a goldplated one. GOLDPLATED fibre optic cable.
I mean.. wtf!
It doesn't even make plausible sense.
