ICANN requires the registry operators for new TLDs to have a: label (dot) TLD
They are also prohibited from wildcarding DNS so they cannot use *.google either, they must register each domain separately and publish the zone files.
At least they are still alive as an organization. They still offer the full OS, but they now understand "the game" of phone manufacturers wanting some control over the OS.
If they can add some privacy and anti-bloat features to otherwise stock OS from a manufacturer that has decent marketshare, they might grow enough to influence Android in a better way for users.
You'd think device makers would want to focus on the hardware and supply side of things and contract out the OS and software parts - but so far they all [poorly] do it themselves.
Impressive that it can hang out with singletons! Hopefully their data structures are thread-safe, in case you get multiple mini robots communicating with the same singleton.
Assuming enough economic zones begin offering Basic Incomes to their citizens, businesses will design and price packages to evenly consume the monthly amount. Great for the businesses to have a constant flow of cash. Great for the payment processors to skim their percent off the top. Great for three letter agencies that can watch these transactions - either financial or data streams - to learn about devices / versions / locations and of course content. Arguably Great for consumers so they don't have to "think" about managing finances - $X coming in, $Y going out, who needs to save?
Not great for those who eschew consolidation of financial or informative power.
This doesn't affect registrar-to-registrar transfers. Just makes it easier for any registrar to use someone else's web hosting.
GoDaddy doesn't make much money from domain name fees - they want up-sell to their hosted offerings and this API helps that. They might lose a few customers to other hosting providers (Wix, Squarespace, etc) but it saves them support costs so they can keep the minimal profits from domain registration and renewal fees.
I only meant what most people classify as personally identifiable, but already shared information: name, address, phone numbers, email, social media handles, SSN, birthdate, stuff like that.
We need some other mechanism than a hidden number that is shared with many institutions to verify identity. And biometric data doesn't work either as it can be cloned (e.g. 3D print a fingerprint from a scan, etc).
Why even try to secure information anymore - just make it all public.
Only need a way to not use all this info to spoof an identity for financial gain. If the Social Security Admin listed all the names & birthdays & numbers online, I'm sure industry would figure it out. Right?
And the Roku is also a closed box like AppleTV. It's quite chatty over the network. Hard to packet sniff HTTPS communication when you cannot modify anything on the device (like the trusted certificates).
How much is it to set one up? Ideally set a cheap rate so real people could still talk if they wanted to. Would be great on Whois records and other public databases, along with any marketing databases. Any legal users (aka lawyers, real businesses, etc) could still pay the micro fine to talk to you.
Millennials cannot do that. They don't have the attention span to copy/paste into other tabs and do research. If information doesn't look pretty, they won't touch it.
Google Play has this also - but you must connect to the net every so often to validate the license of the offline content.
Which sucks for long road trips on tablets. You need to connect to wifi and start to play much of your content if you want to watch it for the next few days.
I think Windows is your problem, and maybe your ISP.
Netflix on Android or Roku is smooth. At worst when a video starts (nearly instantly) it will be in low resolution then eventually (never more than the introduction) switch to higher res once their fancy algorithms figure out the best quality for your available bandwidth.
Offline viewing like Google Play would be amazing for traveling - pre-download the content then watch while you are in the car/bus/train/plane or where there is none or costly internet access.
A valid point for some users - but I'm happy with the current feature set and would only need security issues or critical bugs fixed, which my one-time $4.99 should get me for a few years.
If they released a new version a few years later with lots of features I wanted, then I could pay to upgrade.
I know why app developers love subscriptions, as it's a steady source of revenue and often much, much more than one-time sales, even at premium pricing. But it sucks for consumers.
Also an OSX user, and Firefox, with the right privacy-minded plugs, works wonders with a long-running low footprint. I use tree tabs so I have at least 30+ tabs open regularly. Neither Chrome nor FF will protect you from shitty javascript - you must prohibit that yourself.
What a PITA it was just to stop Chrome from running on startup!
Serverauditor is a decent SSH client for Android. Free works, but does occasionally nag you to pay for the subscription. I would happily pay a one-time fee, but app subscriptions are silly.
you can now ask for a permission at runtime and the user can disable it later.
I want it both ways - list all the permissions you ask for up front at installation time so I can decide to allow the app or not, then allow fine-grained control at runtime.
Many apps will now refuse to work without various permissions enabled. So while the user can disable perms at runtime, you wasted your download as the app won't work.
Faking the data asked for would be much better - want GPS? here is the north pole. Want my contacts? here is Eric Schmidt. Want my calendar or SD card? here is an empty calendar and a temporary directory in chroot.
Slashdot Mirror
Firefox also has Reader Mode that does something similar.
But at least /. uses subdomains in a meaningful way. It is annoying to allow cookies for *.slashdot.org though.
Speaking of unnecessary web shit: uBlock shows me 25 blocked resources on this page.

Yes, where did the editor get: accounts-google.com?

They could easily save half their bandwidth with better board software.

Slack is almost a 3 billion dollar company based on a recent valuation.
It's pretty fancy. And with all that revenue they made something great out of what XMPP could have been.

You need to uncheck the following "security" options:
[ ] Block reported attack sites
[ ] Block reported web forgeries
[ ] Whatever telemetry data
Stop the browser then delete the giant sqlite files on disk and set your disk cache to a moderate (not too low, not too high) level. Restart.
Also use the right amount of privacy-minded extensions to limit remote scripts and resources.

I was thinking of those paralyzed below the waist and how this tech is needed not for their arms but between their legs.
