  1. Re:Root my Android phone? on 'Most Serious' Linux Privilege-Escalation Bug Ever Is Under Active Exploit (arstechnica.com) · · Score: 1

    You could always install the AdblockPlus Browser.

  2. You're full of shit on this front. The "embassy" in London is little more than an apartment inside a typical building. Can you point me towards a source of Faraday cage suppliers for buildings? Are you aware the effectiveness is dependent on the size of the mesh?

  3. If he was in Putin's pocket then why didn't he seek refuge in Russia?

  4. Because he had a server in the USA on KickassTorrents Lawyer: 'Torrent Sites Do Not Violate Criminal Copyright Laws' (arstechnica.co.uk) · · Score: 3, Interesting

    Everyone seems to miss this tiny detail. He had a server running in CHICAGO. Plus they tied the site to his personal email address. So he wasn't even trying to be discrete.

  5. Re:Man... oh man.... on Researchers Bypass ASLR Protection On Intel Haswell CPUs (softpedia.com) · · Score: 1

    You should read up on the AS/400 Architecture. So different from the PC word and much more logical, no such thing as device drivers and buffer overflows can't happen.

  6. Enough with the SJW bullshit on Project Include Drops Y Combinator As Peter Thiel Pledges $1.25 Million To Trump (theverge.com) · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Reddit needed to make a policy change to keep the site profitable. They knew the changes would make fedora wearing neckbeards like yourself start foaming at the mouth so they made her the "fall guy". The changes were enacted and your anger was directed towards her instead of the site. Mission accomplished.

  7. Re:Who??? on Ken Bone May Have Violated FTC Guidelines With Uber Tweet (vice.com) · · Score: 2

    At this point I'd consider an undecided voter as someone with an IQ low enough to a ward of the state.

  8. Class Action Suits on You Can Now Claim Your Cash In the PS3 'Other PS3' Settlement (arstechnica.com) · · Score: 1

    Class action lawsuits are for punishing the company. The lawyers take most.

  9. He admitted to being high on painkillers during the entire recording session for his side project's debut album (Angels And Airwaves).

  10. Re:Until chrome sandboxs tops requiring root acces on Google Chrome 55 May Use Less Memory (blogspot.com) · · Score: 1

    How is the sandbox running as root?

  11. Extradition on 'If KickassTorrents is a Criminal Operation, Google Should Start Worrying' (torrentfreak.com) · · Score: 4, Interesting

    He is being extradited to the US because the owner was dumb enough to have a server located in Chicago.

  12. Wish I had mod points for that one.

  13. Re:It's not innovative on Feds Go After Mylan For Scamming Medicaid Out of Millions On EpiPen Pricing (arstechnica.com) · · Score: 5, Informative

    That CEO was basically given a degree because of her father's political ties. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/...

  14. Any links as to what Chrome collects?

  15. Re:Inscrutable behaviour on Elon Musk: First Humans Who Journey To Mars Must 'Be Prepared To Die' (theverge.com) · · Score: 1

    God forbid anyone criticize a billionaire surrounded by yes men. He got lucky with PayPal and Tesla but asking people to die on Mars is a new one. So you died on Mars, how did that benefit anyone else? Elon Musk could shit on a cracker and you guys would pass it around like fine caviar.

  16. Someone please take the Kool Aid away from this guy. His rocket just blew up recently and was asking for help in figuring out why...

  17. Re:response on Tuesday Was Microsoft's Last Non-Cumulative Patch (helpnetsecurity.com) · · Score: 2

    More like Linux lacked a driver for the oddly configured SSD.

  18. Re:Yeah but there's a whole world out there on Oculus Founder Palmer Luckey Is Secretly Funding Trump's Meme Machine (thedailybeast.com) · · Score: 4, Insightful

    The original poster is correct. We shouldn't be using illegal labor to justify low prices. I don't have a problem with immigrants. I have a problem with illegal immigrants not paying their fare share in taxes. Most of the money they make gets sent back to Mexico anyhow.

  19. Re:Yahoo has users? on Yahoo Confirms Massive Data Breach, 500 Million Users Impacted [Updated] (recode.net) · · Score: 2

    Yahoo started out being an index instead of a search engine. Even in those early days of AltaVista and Lycos I can't ever recall using Yahoo.

  20. I don't think you know what the term "bricked" means. If these computers were truly bricked then Microsoft would be buying everyone new UEFI BIOS chips.

  21. Re:Two thoughts on SciFi TV Series 'Space Patrol Orion' Celebrates Its 50th Anniversary (wikipedia.org) · · Score: 3, Insightful

    I love The Prisoner. However nothing was wrapped up. I dare you to explain that last episode with the missile, the lorry, and everyone singing "dem bones".

  22. Re:Not again! on IBM Launches New Linux, Power8, OpenPower Systems (zdnet.com) · · Score: 1

    Sparc is still around surprisingly and Oracle is selling tons of systems.

  23. Re:Courage on Apple Cites 'Courage' As Reason To Remove 3.5mm Headphone Jack (arstechnica.com) · · Score: 4, Insightful

    This is different than merely changing a connector or protocol. Now headphones have gone from a passive device to an active device that needs its own power source. How long does the battery last on these earpods? Can it easily be changed?

  24. I got news for ya! on Apple May Bring Back Billions In Profits To The U.S. (siliconbeat.com) · · Score: 1

    Do you think corporations will absorb these extra taxes and take less income, or pass the increases along to the customers?

  25. Re:Obligatory on Creators Call Out YouTube For Demonetizing Videos (dailydot.com) · · Score: 1

    I've yet to find a good ad blocker for the YouTube Android app. I was amazed that longer videos now have commercial breaks in the middle.
