I use both Firefox and Chrome at both home and work, and my phone. I actually prefer firefox on my phone.
As someone who uses and likes both browsers I believe firefox is as good, if not slightly better, than Chrome. I prefer it's UI for addons, it has fireFTP, and to be honest it seems, on my systems at least, that firefox is slightly faster to launch and load my initial pages.
I view amazon prime video as an added bonus to my prime membership, not a primary feature..
The amount of video's that are not included in prime video makes it extremely unreliable in a sense of "lets watch a family movie tonight!"
All of the Video Streaming services need to get better. If music subscription based services worked like video did, everyone would be back to pirating. With Music subscriptions you get 100% of the library, not a subset of their chosen flavor of the month.
or..They *could* use ads that don't need Flash, Javascript, shockwave, etc. It's just too damn easy for them.
They could just use html, simple text for the ad. I notice the ad in my gmail, and it isn't some auto-playing dancing monkey with some overly loud god-aweful music.
"Today, if a Windows user finds that an update breaks something that they need, they can generally refuse that update for an extended period."
Please tell me what kind of average Windows user checks the internet for any indication of an issue with a patch? We are talking about users that refuse to set a password on the only account on the system, that is also the administrator account. Users that never update Java, Flash, etc.
If someone is tech savvy enough to hold off patching until the industry has vetted them, they wouldn't be using the Home version regardless, they'll pay the 99 dollars to upgrade to Pro.
Please do! I'd appreciate it if those darn Candadians would return that stolen content. I logged onto Netflix yesterday and couldn't find a movie that I wanted to watch. I guess they ran out of copies.
It's not bad, just not needed. For Android and iOS devices, there is no need for a 3rd party Chrome/Firefox downloader application because you use their respective stores to download/install applications.
Can users (or the website owners) sue them whenever it's shown that their streams are vectors of malware? I think advertisers suing might be opening pandora's litigious box.
I think people are reading too much into this, in fact I think people are misreading the article.
Think about WebMD...do people trust information on that website? How is that different from advice on any other website, including Facebook?
Facebook already has health related stuff already. I know people who are members of health related user groups on Facebook to help with mental issues, and it is beneficial for them.
This isn't about linking your Facebook account with your medical provider's health chart database..
I used to be an Usher for a Professional Basketball team before cameras on cellphones came out. Originally any camera other then a normal Point and Shoot were banned due to media licensing rights, we would confiscate and destroy film if someone was caught using one.
When Cellphones started to have cameras and video, we were originally told to do the same. Confiscate and watch them delete the image/video...but it was so ridiculously cumbersome that that was very quickly reversed. They are so prolific and hard to catch in the act, it's near impossible to enforce.
I can't believe the lawyers for the Forest Service haven't mentioned what happened in the Sporting industry...well actually I do believe it.
could they add data using the unheard frequencies, it could be picked up by software/hardware to interact with (identify) yet wouldn't interfere with the actual recording?
The same way you clone any encrypted container. You know you can image an encrypted drive? You still won't be able to access the data without decrypting it, if it's truly encrypted unlike the early iOS-we-say-it's-encrypted-but-it's-really-not fiasco, but you do have a copy of the drive.

"So far studies of foragers like the Tsimane, Arctic Inuit, and Hadza have found that these peoples traditionally didn't develop high blood pressure, atherosclerosis, or cardiovascular disease."
What is really odd is all of those are symptoms of something else besides diet. Maybe their excellent health had something more to do with say..their constant exercise? All they did was walk or run. They didn't get off the couch to go to the car, walk 50 feet then sit in a chair all day, then walk another 50 feet get in their car then go back to the couch.
This idea that "I can sit on my fat ass watching my TV and still be healthy if all I eat are nuts" is..nuts.
Its okay, haven't you been watching Scandal? They are truly a patriotic bunch of people who are only trying to protect us from a murderous terrorist who happens to be the long thought dead mother of the President's mistress. They exist outside the law because they do what others can't or won't do to protect the US of A.
"As part of the American Civil Liberties Union's recent report on police militarization, the Massachusetts chapter of the organization sent open records requests to SWAT teams across that state. It received an interesting response. As it turns out, a number of SWAT teams in the Bay State are operated by what are called law enforcement councils, or LECs. These LECs are funded by several police agencies in a given geographic area and overseen by an executive board, which is usually made up of police chiefs from member police departments...Some of these LECs have also apparently incorporated as 501(c)(3) organizations. And it’s here that we run into problems. According to the ACLU, the LECs are claiming that the 501(c)(3) status means that they're private corporations, not government agencies. And therefore, they say they're immune from open records requests."
I needed to buy my family a new Camry, our old one was getting too old. The vtech just wasn't kicking in anymore. We love our new Camry, especially the Ford Sync thing that lets us sync up our iPhone and play music from the playstore.
Granted, that's just Office 365. But I would have thought everyone knew there are legit ways to get free or very low cost licenses for every MS product for Non-Profits?
Compare that to the % of the world population on the Internet at that time. Remember this was the age of 2400bps-33.6k. I would venture to guess AOL had a larger share of total people using the Internet then the % of people Facebook has. For many AOL *was* the internet..

There was some industry group that would suggest/recommend best practices in the form of "standards."
Oh wait...how was Microsoft involved in that earlier group again?
but then you can spoil all of their tv shows...just before they see it!

you pay $25/m to lease 5 static IPs...

We don't normally test our spacecraft systems, but when we do, we do it after launch.

it was "F1 Pole Position"
I remember playing it, was cool, you could change the color of your F1 car. Purple/Black FTW.

exactly, this is destructive replication. Not teleportation.
That's like saying we're teleporting music files to our drives every day.

there were stories about this in the past weeks..

so true.
discrimination is discrimination, unless you're on the beneficiary side of the stick. But hey, isn't that what makes the US of A so special?

Holy mother of awesome comments. This saved slashdot for me. thanks.
I've never looked into if what you described was possible (read lazy), but I've been wondering about it for quite some time.
