  1. There are even small and good stuff in shops, that accept openwrt joyfully, for 1/4 of that price.

  2. Quite obvious. $99

  3. Base zero works.

  4. Re:Also bugs on Ask Slashdot: How Are So Many Security Vulnerabilities Possible? · · Score: 1

    Sure. But maybe, also, not enough workforce and money is put on the table when it comes to security ( == they don't care enough )

  5. Depends on which base you do the calculation.

  6. Nope. Takes too much from battery.

  7. Re:10/90 on Ask Slashdot: How Are So Many Security Vulnerabilities Possible? · · Score: 2

    This is 90% of the problem.

    And 90% of those 90% are due to cheaper inexperienced or incompetent people in charge of implementing security.

  8. I n e r t i a on Why Apple's HomePod Is Three Years Behind Amazon's Echo (bloomberg.com) · · Score: 1

    Inertia is the reason. Apple still benefits from these years of innovation, creative design, flawless programs etc... (Btw that should convince the unbelievers how amazing the work of Jobs was). But Apple has already started to lose some inertia ; will take some time until Apple fans change their mind, though.

  9. Re:Might have been nice if the summary explained.. on Hitler Quote Controversy In the BSD Community · · Score: 1

    Has been in Emacs for a long time (among many other things of course)

  10. Censorship? on Skype Vanishes From App Stores in China (nytimes.com) · · Score: 2

    > "its removal from the app stores is the most recent example of a decades-long push by China's government to control and monitor the flow of information online"

    Maybe it's just that China wants to prevent their own citizens to be spied on by big western companies.

  11. Re:No more smartphones? on Google Collects Android Users' Locations Even When Location Services Are Disabled (qz.com) · · Score: 1

    Plasma Mobile?

  12. They can still raise the "bug" card...

  13. Interestingly, that's an anagram of "Mass Sin".

  14. Re:Rapid rotation? on Study of Recent Interstellar Asteroid Reveals Bizarre Shape (bbc.com) · · Score: 1

    Minimum angular velocity (length wise) of 11 km / second. Still far from c.

  15. Re:What's the real story? on Study of Recent Interstellar Asteroid Reveals Bizarre Shape (bbc.com) · · Score: 1

    More importantly, we need Kardashian and Bieber opinions.

    Nothing surprising, the Sun being a giant ovary. Genetically, what is that going to produce is interesting.

    (and btw neither google.com nor facebook.com are in)

    Note that the "expected" ones are there: (main sites .com, not the .ru ...)

    Norton, Microsoft, Godaddy, Skype, Adobe, ...

  19. Re:websites and windows on Over 400 of the World's Most Popular Websites Record Your Every Keystroke (vice.com) · · Score: 1

    Windows captures them at a lower level, even before the keyboard event reaches the browser. Don't worry, MS knows even more that those spy web sites.

  20. Apple success inertia is such that even "Apple releases new emoji" makes the headlines. This story gives a sense of "inertia is fading out". In a couple years, this news will be of nobody's interest.

  21. BigBrother.com

  22. The words "bomb" and "die" being in the text, the NSA got it even before MS.

  23. Web Sites Behavior Control on Over 400 of the World's Most Popular Websites Record Your Every Keystroke (vice.com) · · Score: 3, Insightful

    That proves (even if we've known that for a while) there is no control of web sites behavior. A concrete analogy is, you're angry after the tax office because you pay too much taxes, and start to write a letter, joking around, "go f..k yourself" etc... then throw that paper away and write the real one. Following this web site behavior, the tax officer is constantly looking over your shoulder - without you being even aware of that. This is totally unacceptable. The user should be at least made aware of that spying policy.

  24. what are they doing with that information? I mean 99.99% of that is completely boresome, and for the rest, they'd need a quite capable AI algo to extract relevant information. Unless there is a 24/7 staff in charge of checking the crap that's been entered then deleted... which I doubt.
