I've got an XBox One and currently a really shit internet connection (digital nomad in Spain sharing wifi across 3 different flats).
When the internet goes dodgy and the XBox One loses access, I can't save my game and the games start missing features.
Sure my predicament is a bit odd, but I can't be the only person with flakey Internet. Not being able to save a single player game just because you aren't online is a bit off imo.
it's not a 'hack tool' it's a front end website to a backend zombie army of compromised routers, where do you think all the bandwidth for the DDOS is coming from? Their wordpress hosting plan?
amnesty international probably think they're special, but the uk government really doesn't give a shit about anyone other than themselves. only the alleged peadophiles in the house of lords need their privacy protected
For those not familiar with Force Touch, it detects how hard a user presses down on the screen giving an additional type of input. As Bloomberg mentions, it is already used in the Apple Watch and new MacBook Pros and, while we can only speculate how Apple will implement it in iOS, the potential here is huge.
Can anyone recommend a secure Skype replacement? I've been using Telegraph for real time chat, which has a great mobile experience, but only one of my friends has transitioned to it, everyone else is still all over WhatsApp. Telegraph also doesn't do video data.
I saw Snowdon talk last week and whilst he didn't say anything that hadn't already been said and printed, his passion has definitely motivated me to take a bit more personal responsibility.
Several of my IRC channels have now also moved to Slack, which is probably a step backwards for security.
Ultimately, I think this whole thing is stupid. I'm a guy, but I have to imagine this is patronizing as all hell to women. Isn't this the kind of shit feminists have been fighting forever?
This is the Social Justice Warrior brand of feminism rather than the egalitarian brand of feminism.
is it really news that a subset of people hate men and wish to eradicate gender? the more airtime these people get, the more they get to push their agenda and market themselves. so you hate the penis and have no sense of humour, great. stop complaining and go get some therapy.
if you don't know the basics of public/private key cryptography, you'll get ass hat developers passing their private SSH keys around instead of their public ones, wasting a lot of people's time who will have to run about doing damage control.
If, as a developer, you think your job starts and ends in an IDE, you're going to be a shit developer if you are unable to navigate the systems and infrastructure you are developing for.
You should be developing for the platform you're deploying to, whether that's a series of company maintained servers or some random CPanel hosting you've bought for $1 a month.
The best way is to bake yourself an image you can run from scratch each time that gets installed and configured to a known outcome, hello Puppet/Chef/Ansible/Vagrant/etc/etc
That gives you the benefit on developing on what ever platform with whatever toolset you like the most and an extremely reliable test platform that accurately mirrors your deployment platform.
Otherwise you open yourself and your code to all kinds of unnecessary bugs later on.
When I was a student I made myself very ill by eating Asda ready meals 3 times a day, not all ready meals are healthy.
People definitely don't know what vitamins are in their food and which are missing.
I would love to see some citations that show your varied meal plan would be 100% nutritionally complete. I don't think I've ever met anyone who has a steak 7 times a week and/or eats fish 7 times a week though.
Bullshit the former, of course right the later. It has never been the standard that a healthy person needs any kind of vitamin suplement aside of what comes with a varied and healthy diet. Big pharma will say otherwise, of course.
Whilst technically correct, the amount of people eating a diet that provides all the vitamins they need is minimal in this fast food world we live in. Whilst you can survive and live quite happily with a minimal intake of things like omega fats, supplementing with them, and many other vitamins, can be advantageous.
To simply say we as a society don't need vitamin supplements because we all eat varied diets is as much a fallacy as a marketer saying we are all deficient in all vitamins.
Athletes and bodybuilders have managed to have their diet and fitness nailed for decades, it's only the common joe that seems to be confused.
This issue is less the fault of science and more the fault of marketing. Marketers will latch on to any scientific study, however tenuous, to push a product and the news will happily inflate their claims for headlines, e.g. the thoroughly debunked '1 glass of red wine is the same as an hour of exercise' study released recently. It's not scientists making these claims, its marketers and news reporters.
Corporations that lobby politicians to to sell more of their products also aren't helping. The US food pyramid isn't the fault of scientists, its the fault of farmers wanting to sell more grain. Michelle Obama's attempts to revamp America's food issues are being thwarted by huge corporations with deep pockets and news reporters siding with the opposition doing their utmost to paint any attempts for nutritional revamp in a bad light. None of those guys are scientists.
If you want to learn about nutrition and exercise get away from the marketing and the news and start looking at what athletes and bodybuilders are doing. They've been doing it for a long time and if you look closely a lot of what they do is backed up by science. Eating grilled chicken/steak/fish with brown rice and steamed vegetables and doing weight lifting/high intensity interval training doesn't grab headlines though and takes effort.

This is the uber of the owner driver truck/van model, should be interesting to see what happens!
The percentage of people who can afford $99 a year for Amazon prime but only $50 for a shitty tablet to watch it on is also very small :D

Foods fried in butter and coconut oil are actually really good for you though.
Please eat as much as you can over the next 3 years. We won't miss you.

Redefining humanity to be genderless is pretty much the equivalent of social progress for some people.
This is the Social Justice Warrior brand of feminism rather than the egalitarian brand of feminism.
yet holding a position of responsibility for it
so fucking stupid

I'd say a reasonable use of SSH and not handing your private key to people is a pretty important fundamental, for anyone touching a nix environment...

That's actually pretty good. I was paying half that for a BT line and Be ADSL Internet (who I think got bought by Sky anyway).
An extra £30 for Internet five times faster than my ADSL and a TV package.. assuming adding mobile doesnt increase the price that much, I'm in!!
Forgive my ignorance, but how is this image sexist and/or how is it's source (Playboy?) sexist?
In order for something to be sexist doesn't it in some way have to discriminate between sexes?
If they wanted to prosecute peadophiles theye'd open and release the dossier from the 80s.
