I think the average age of user on here is much older than it used to be.
We have old jaded engineers, IT staff, etc, as the majority of visitors now.
It's more diverse than ever. There are plenty of other places awash in binary groupthink: all crapping on everything, or all cheer leading.
This is a much more pessimistic place than it was 10+ years ago.
The majority of the highest modded comments on this story are neutral or generally positive. Negativity is most pronounced when a highly-political story is pushed on the front page... as intended by the editors.
Not really. They is a good rational for doing this, they are discussing it publicly and the opt-opt will be clear and easy. This is how you develop trust.
Not to mention, forks from Mozilla will reap all the benefits of the improvements that better data yield.
If these people were doing that, fine. They are not. They put these battery packs right in their homes.
They are amateurs with no idea of risk management or statistics and often only passing EE skills.
And yet from TFA:
Most hobbyists I spoke to said they don't keep their powerwalls inside their homes for safety reasons or to comply with local regulations.
Perhaps he is looking to make some kind of deal, or maybe Russia is looking to make some kind of exchange with the US. Although, if it's a deal he's looking to make, I'd be careful what I drink if I were him.
Disney, more than any other content producer/distributor, has a massive catalog with a very well-defined market. They'll probably pull stuff like streaming movies that are in the "Disney Vault" (that's code for artificially scarce films that aren't as good as you remember anyway).
Besides - the real story (as far as the journalist would see it IMHO) is that someone started a political shitfight at google. The details and justifications are not that difficult for those interested to find out this time since it's all online.
I think you can safely say that he won the fight. Sure, he got fired, but Google is burning a ton of money cleaning up after this because his really not that inflammatory opinion piece has resonated so strongly with so many. Google probably already has a line item for a settlement when he files wrongful termination. Not because legally he is in the right, but because the last thing they need is an even bigger spotlight on how oppressive their sociopolitical monoculture is.
Enjoy the ads, which take up half your viewing time and assume you are an idiot. I would not say I am "grateful" for our online marketing overlords, per se, but at least there's a slim chance that streaming ads are relevant.
Node.js apps are a dime a dozen these days, and they're all fat slugs of things. Sad.
I'm genuinely confused. How does server side software cause mobile apps to become bloated? What difference does it make if the app is pulling from Node or Ruby or Python or anything else?
What you are describing is an interchangeable lens camera (ILC). A DSLR must have a mirror by definition. Vibration is not the primary motivation for removing the mirror, it is overall system size and weight reduction, as this allows a much smaller lens and body. (moving the back of the lens closer to the focal plane allows more compact lens designs, especially on the side end). Also, to clear up a misconception, mechanical shutters are alive and well, though many cameras offer digital shutters as an optional shooting mode. And there are drawbacks to mirrorless cameras, as they focus more slowly and some people do not like looking into an eyepiece monitor instead of looking through the lens optically.
Each episode is already available to torrent hours (minutes?) after airing, so I do not see this having a huge impact. If the cost does not convince some people to pirate, why would the timing?
My experience, based on encountering and uploading malware to VT and similar sites, is that Kaspersky is one of the first antivirus providers to get definitions for new malware. We used to have Symantec and they were hours behind. That said, I couldn't tell you what the real world difference is now because we switched to a different AV company from Symantec (not Kaspersky) and our edge protection got much better.
There is already an antivirus builtin to Windows. Honest question here, why should I install this one instead?
In my experience, back when we had poor edge protection at work (2-3 years ago) and malware made it into the company, I would upload it to sites like VT, Malwr, and Anubis. Kaspersky was nearly always one of the first AV companies to detect it. We had Symantec and they were always hours behind.
So, I'd say that the reason is because if you're going to traditional AV route, instead of no AV or a next gen AV, Kaspersky is probably one of the best bets.

That's gonna be interesting watching a 96x54 pixel YouTube video while you read your report 3 words at a time.
You're thinking of phones four years ago. Look around you.

You forgot the most obnoxious of all:

I kind of assumed that kids and teenagers were the primary audience for the theater experience, because to them three months is an eternity.
It's not about the wait, it's about going out and doing something outside the house.
You're confusing FPGA with FPBA.
I just was thinking yesterday: Know what I need? Another streaming service in my life!
The world needs this like it needs another messaging service or phone payment system.

This is not a news to many sysadmins. Some of our managers even get it as well.
None of that matters in the face of regulatory compliance.

Oh, of course! I missed that reference, and yet I still managed dress myself this morning. Wonders never cease.
Easy, there. I wasn't trying to get you all riled up, I was just trying to explain myself. Not everyone is out to pick a fight--even online.
It's from the film Idiocracy.
Personally, I dramatically prefer untargeted ads over targeted ones. Targeted ads just remind me that I'm being spied on.
Well, enjoy the Brawndo spots.

Sure, but at least the photographer is honest that he is primarily there to get pictures and not enjoy the company of others.

I can see them making sense in special circumstances, though. One that leaps to mind is prison guards.
I feel like the guard would disagree.
