    So the weak yellow therapy bands tied off on each side to apply light pressure both to the grip and the turns.

    Thank you. Bing sounds smarter than "tricking" Google by switching to a private browser coming from the exact same IP address.

    Actually it is about proper disposal. Read the last part of the original post up top. They asked if people use disk wiping for very standard and boring stuff. The answer I gave addressed that well. I then addressed that I have never done what she did.

    Several people already pointed out your mistake, but randomized twice before a zero wipe shows that you aren't hiding encryption within the randomization. I'm not hiding bad things, and don't want to make it look like I am, so zeroing is legally safer than leaving it looking like an encryption technique.

  15. Never that specific program on Hillary Clinton Used BleachBit To Wipe Emails (neowin.net) · · Score: 4, Interesting

    But any time you stop using a hard drive you should clean it. I have probably 6 hard drives on a shelf in my house because I've replaced them with larger or faster drives. Each one has had the free space randomized twice and then set to all zeros afterward. Bank info, taxes, official (unclassified) work files, all of those have been on them in some variety at some points, and if they are ever disposed, I don't want any of that to be easily recoverable. I have never used it to destroy evidence when it was requested by investigators, as I am not a wealthy and powerful person, I would end up incriminating myself by doing so.

  17. I have just been lucky on iPhones and iPads Fail More Often Than Android Smartphones (softpedia.com) · · Score: 1

    Only issue I've really faced is a battery that expanded, and the local non-Apple shop that specializes in Apple products replaced it really cheaply. No other issues that I can think of since I got my first one five and a half years ago. I'm even running their Beta iOS 10 and it runs amazingly well.

    The last big update I accepted from Microsoft made my HFS partition disappear and while it didn't hurt me, it broke thousands of webcams. It messed up some other things for me too, I just can't recall what they are. I rolled it back. Then again, I agreed to update my phone with Apple's beta updates, and iOS 10 v 6 is tight. My wife's super old iPhone could do the same thing. Your point sounds like it makes sense until the details come in.

    This is totally false. Did you forget the 9 hard drives that simultaneously failed a few years ago? I read a nice article covering the odds that 9 drives would fail immediately upon request of the data on them, and the number of zeros before the decimal on the percentage was staggering. They did totally remove emails, just because it wasn't a delete icon on a mail client doesn't mean they were not destroyed as soon as someone asked for them.

    Early router implementations of it showed a large list of security measures for IPv4, but IPv6 generally was just a on/off. I'm not suggesting the flaw is in the stack, but in the 2005-2010 era routers that allowed IPv6 traffic.

    And that's why I'm suggesting that the proliferation of it will make it a sweeter pot. I know there are far better vulnerabilities, but the obscurity is going away.

    That's my point. IPv6 in home routers is over a decade old, but the support started as terrible implementation.
