If there's no trusted 3rd party, what is the point of encryption? Unless you have a certificate or a shared secret, how do you know the party on the other end of the encrypted connection is who you think it is, and not a MITM? You don't, so what was the point?
Those dozens of background tasks are your tabs or plugins you've installed. Of the 6 processes my instance of Chrome is currently running (with one tab open) they are: Browser: 115MB GPU Process: 61MB V8: 11MB Slashdot tab: 111MB Adblock Plus: 162MB uBlock: 63MB
Each additional tab is one more process. If you install dozens of plugins, you'll get dozens of processes and gigabytes of RAM usage. Tip: Press shift-esc to open Chrome's task manager and see for yourself.
My ISP supplied me with a Fritzbox for a router. They have Let's Encrypt support in their current beta firmware. Although they still give people shitty netgear routers if they don't have gigabit plans...
Considering a phablet is a phone with a screen between 5.1" and 7", Apple only sell one phone, the iPhone 8. The 8 Plus and X are both phablets with 5.5 and 5.8" screens. The 6 Plus, 6S Plus and 7 were all phablets too. All 5.5" screens. Phablets weren't a flop, the term is just used less because every flagship smartphone is one. So are most mid-range phones now
The iPhone 8 is the slowest selling model, with the 8 Plus and X both outselling it. There have been more iPhone X sales in the last quarter than iWatch sales, ever.
They were expected to sell over 34 million units in the first year. Last figures I found were 33 million units after 2.5 years. That includes the launch of the new series that you can wear in the rain without worrying about water damage.
Turns out people don't want a watch that won't last 24 hours on a charge (18 hour claim, with a disclaimer than it was measured on pre-production hardware and software - they couldn't be bothered or didn't want to release real tests on real products). You can't even go away for a weekend without bringing your proprietary charger, that doesn't even work with your other Apple products.
My laptop has Ethernet, HDMI, Thunderbolt, USB2, USB3, SD slot, head phones and microphone jacks.
The only thing ever really plugged in to it is a USB wireless mouse transceiver. I used to use a bluetooth mouse, but the dodgy Intel bluetooth kept randomly dropping out.
Sometimes I plug an SD card in to it, but that's via a micro to standard SD adapter.
Lots of people don't ever plug anything but the power cord in to their laptop.
There has never been a technical reason why a phone can't be tracked. Since the very first cellphone, the carriers knew which cell tower the phone was in. Not long after that they could approximate the position by looking at signal strength across nearby towers. Since cellphones had GPS's in them, they've been able to request a GPS position from the phone without the user doing anything. It's why they invented aGPS, so cellphones didn't need to spend 40+ seconds with a clear view of the sky to get a fix.
The issuer checks the signature matches the one on file. They also have a financial incentive to find lazy merchants - the merchants have to pay penalties when they get charges reversed.
You should pay for Skype for Business then Then everyone in your organisation can have a ~50% success rate joining an online skype meeting! and when they do manage it connect, screen sharing will randomly drop out for some people, requiring them to re-join for it to work for the next 30 seconds before failing again.

Asus have switched their firmware to one based on dd-wrt and openwrt
They call it "asuswrt"
That means I have to walk down to the street to get my pizza from a car.
It's a better service when it's delivered to my door. Especially if it's raining.
Als impacts routers from Asus, Linksys, Netgear and Synology. Possibly more.
TP-Link are the ones who figured out what the cause was.
When did I do that?
The iPod and iPhone were definitely not flops.

The entire smart watch market is a flop.
Has Apple released anything since Steve Jobs died that hasn't been a total flop?

and fixed it by changing the password.

Perhaps they have issued a warrant to the suspects carrier and are getting the information from them?

America is just slow.
Redhat makes 2.9 billion in revenue with a market cap of 22.3 billion
Develop a PIN for use online and watch fraud drop tremendously there, too.
One of them is called "Verified by Visa"
Lucky. The limit is $80 in NZ.
They do get kept by the merchant
If the charge is disputed and the merchant can't produce a signature (if that was used for authorisation) then the charge gets reversed.
The person taking the signature doesn't care though, it's not their shop and not their money
There's already a minute chance our space probes/landers/robots have already transported Earth based life to Mars.
Your asshole neighbour who's dog isn't fenced would be violating their license to occupy and be fined or evicted.
