  1. IPv6 early vulnerabilities proliferate on IPv6 Achieves 50% Reach On Major US Carriers (worldipv6launch.org) · · Score: 1

    I'm really impressed that there have not been a lot more vulnerabilities exploited as IPv6 has grown in popularity. It was common in early supported routers to have all kinds of security on IPv4, but IPv6 was pretty close to wide open due to lack of understanding. With this kind of spread I'm sure the interest will rise soon. I have no doubt a lot of those old routers haven't gotten appropriate updates, and even if they have, the updates haven't been applied.

  2. I rolled it back for multiple reasons. The webcam was completely unrelated. NordVPN client wouldn't connect, and HFS partition disappeared. I liked half of the new features, but the other half were broken things. I can't work with an update like that when I'm not at home for half a year. Luckily it rolled back easily.

  3. I disagree. I think "it" is an unrelated subject.

  4. T-mobile and Verizon on T-Mobile Brings Back Unlimited Data For All (cnet.com) · · Score: 1

    Only problem I face is that T-Mobile's coverage where I live is beyond terrible. Verizon picks up literally everywhere I've been (at home in the USA).

  5. Re: Sprint on T-Mobile Brings Back Unlimited Data For All (cnet.com) · · Score: 1

    Wait, why does this matter now? Every phone I've seen supports pretty much every service. My Verizon iPhone 5s is working just fine in the middle east with a Vodafone SIM (GSM) for now.

  6. You're confusing laws against corporations and laws written by and for corporations. These pro-taxi laws are there for monopolistic reasons.

  7. Looks up how to hotwire self-driving cars on Uber's First Self-Driving Fleet Arrives in Pittsburgh This Month (bloomberg.com) · · Score: 1

    And they're Volvos too? That may end up being so easy to "commandeer" if the right tools are available.

  8. Re:Facetime works on computers on Google Duo Video Chat App Arrives On iOS and Android With End-to-end Encryption (betanews.com) · · Score: 1

    You can run a fully functional Android window on a windows/mac OS. Then run Duo.

  9. Re:Facetime works on computers on Google Duo Video Chat App Arrives On iOS and Android With End-to-end Encryption (betanews.com) · · Score: 1

    Hackintosh virtualized.

  10. How about you just run Android on your desktop? Seems a simple solution until a real app is made.

  11. Re:We are 5-10 years out from a breakthrough.... on Will New Battery Technologies Smash The Old Order? (telegraph.co.uk) · · Score: 1

    What do you consider a chemical fuel source? I was under the impression that all fuel was a chemical, aside from maybe pure hydrogen.

  12. Re:VoIP is in every app now on Skype For Windows Phone Will Stop Working in 2017 (betanews.com) · · Score: 1

    My ICQ is 102686. I fire it up occasionally for missed messages.

  13. VoIP is in every app now on Skype For Windows Phone Will Stop Working in 2017 (betanews.com) · · Score: 1

    I guess it makes sense as VoIP is available in nearly every chat program that exists nowadays. People like my dad will be upset as he's a big Skype fan. Yeah, it's an old person app.

  14. Re:Time is more vast than space on Maybe There's No Life in Space Because We're Too Early · · Score: 1

    That's clearly true, I just disagree with the viability of the idea.

  15. Time is more vast than space on Maybe There's No Life in Space Because We're Too Early · · Score: 1

    I say this all the time. Life clearly exists, but in our Galaxy (the only reachable life that realistically matters to us), it is likely to have existed in the past or the future. Or it simply exists too close to more massive objects, and its timeline exists far accelerated from us. In other words, time passes faster for them than it is passing for Earth. The Milky Way is by far not so big when compared to how much time has passed and time that will pass, at varying speeds.

  16. Well, it is an older game, but EVE Online is a good example. Maybe too much innovation on that one. Anyway, I can think of dozens of times throughout my life I wished I could play a modern game based on the gameplay or storyline of a classic. Deus Ex and I am Setsuna are just two examples of them fulfilling that wish.

  17. Re:What about anniversary update? on Microsoft Starts Testing Windows 10's Next Major Update (theverge.com) · · Score: 1

    It took me a few hours to figure out I needed to roll back the update. Works as well as it did the first time!

  18. The Facebook killer on Google Play Store Drops Google+ Integration (arstechnica.com) · · Score: 1

    I hear Google+ has everything Facebook doesn't. It'll overtake them any day.

  19. What about anniversary update? on Microsoft Starts Testing Windows 10's Next Major Update (theverge.com) · · Score: 1

    When will they start testing how to fix all the problems in that? I would love to re-install the anniversary update, but it broke my system. VPN software didn't work, HFS drive disappeared. I enjoyed the updates, but the breaks need fixing before you move on to the next version to break new things!

  20. Re:speakers will always be analog on Cory Doctorow On What iPhone's Missing Headphone Jack Means For Music Industry (fastcompany.com) · · Score: 1

    No, you're clearly not bypassing the DRM. There is no DRM at that point to bypass. It's a pure analog audio signal. No DRM.

  21. Re:Dumb pipe on Rightscorp Threatens Every ISP in the United States (torrentfreak.com) · · Score: 1

    Actually that is exactly what this is about. The fact that they know that their users are abusing copyright should remove their safe harbor protection.

  22. Re:The second best Star Trek on Barry Jenner, Who Played Admiral Ross On 'Star Trek: Deep Space Nine,' Dies At 75 (deadline.com) · · Score: 1

    Agreed. I liked Admiral Ross until he showed his dark side. Then I still liked that his character was there, as he was now one of those high ranking good/bad guys.

  23. Dumb pipe on Rightscorp Threatens Every ISP in the United States (torrentfreak.com) · · Score: 1

    I really don't get how all these ISPs that discriminate traffic can get away with remaining non-liable. The safe harbor is ONLY if they are unaware, thus this should be encouragement for not knowing what is happening on their network.

  24. The "war on terror" has resulted in more terrorists and worse terrorist groups and more potent enemies.

  25. Re:penetration on Next Generation of Wireless -- 5G -- Is All Hype (backchannel.com) · · Score: 1

    While you're right about some things, 24 GHz is in the Ka band, whereas EHF starts at 30 GHz.
