  1. RTFA on MPlayer, VLC Media Player Hit By Critical Vulnerability (hackread.com) · · Score: 3, Insightful

    According to an email from Ross Finlayson of Live Networks, Inc., the vulnerability “does not affect VLC or MPlayer, because they use LIVE555 only to implement an RTSP. The bug affected only our implementation of a RTSP, which these media players don’t use. (VLC does have an embedded RTSP server, but that uses a separate implementation, not LIVE555’s.)”

  2. And btw, if you were so "search literate", you would use DuckDuckGo and not Google.

  3. Use Google? The company that records/tracks every move you make online?
    So you trust Google but not Xiaomi, just because one collects it for America and the other for China?
    The thing is, at the end of the day most of them are all the same. If you're online then someone is always trying to track you and collect as much information they can get their hands on.

  4. I'm on 57.0.2 and haven't got the said extension. Even the main article hasn't mentioned the update version.

    Just for your info, I have been using Samsung Galaxy S3 for almost 5 years now, will be 5 years in October.

    You my friend truly know nothing about operating systems. Sad, for you!

    Yeah right.

  9. Beginning of the end! on Apple Adds Samsung Galaxy SIII To Its Ban List · · Score: 1

    I don't know why but i feel like this is the beginning of the end for Apple "in the long run".

    The world doesn't stop on innovation, design is the most rapidly changing aspect of the tech industry, somehow someday people will come up with completely different, fresh, better and generally more favorable designs and also regarding the utility patents someone will come up with a more efficient, different and easier way to do those things. Who will Apple sue then?...their own fanbois for jailbreaking?

    And mind you fanbois, this time Microsoft is not going to save Apple's Ass!

    The way you steer a car not novel, nor is the brake/accelerator arrangement.

    There was a first time, right?

    It's been done like that for years.

    So if pinch/zoom is used for the next 50 years (considering that you just came to know of it), will you be saying the same for that? And what's with the rectangle with rounded corners?....FFS man!. There's something seriously wrong with the US patent system.

  12. Re:The long-term problem for Apple. on Samsung's Comparison of Galaxy S To iPhone · · Score: 1

    Apple make their money off of hardware sales because of the software on/in it. What good is a "Smartphone" if you don't have an app store for it? In other words, will you stick to a phone that you cannot install anything on?

    You would have never said all that if you actually new what Islam is and what are the teachings of Islam. If you really want to know about Islam, you should give the Holy Quran a reading.

    I know this post is not going to change your mind and beliefs but maybe someday you will open your mind and heart to the reality of this world and then you will realize.
