  1. I don't remember the last time I've read so much bullshit. Checked exceptions tell you that something is expected to go wrong and you should deal with it in some way. If that's not the case, use a runtime exception. I love the choice.

  2. If I search for "The Pirate Bay" on google all I get is proxies and some articles. Meanwhile, same search in duckduckgo places the .org as first hit.

  3. AMD is dead and Netcraft confirms it. Sell your stocks now!

  4. Ahm.. on Linux Mint Is Killing the KDE Edition (betanews.com) · · Score: 1

    Who used Mint for KDE anyway? Those 5 people will surely be pissed off.

  5. Looks like I am changing my wallet provider.

  6. Nobody on Devuan Jessie 1.0 Officially Released (softpedia.com) · · Score: -1, Flamebait

    ..except hardcode systemd haters and trolls care about this. The rest of us who actually need to have work done just use systemd and move on.

  7. I just typed "TPB" and "thepiratebay" and all I get is proxies. Official site is censored by Google.

  8. When I forget the latest domain TBP had to switch to I use DDG and it finds it. Can't say the same for Goo.. *CENSORSHIP* search engine.

  9. ...that they use bsdiff.

  10. Just don't patch it out from older games on Blizzard Is Getting Rid of the Battle.net Name (theverge.com) · · Score: 1

    I guess this makes sense. Long live PvPGN.

  11. I might use Angular 2 but I definitely won't be using TypeScript, ES6 all the way.

  12. Is this yet another clickbait title? The real news here is that final release is out but the title is about compatibility which was known for 2 years? What the hell!

  13. Re:That's not a bug on Hacker Finds Bug to Edit or Delete Any Medium Post (vice.com) · · Score: 2

    Authentication is not the correct word, authorization is. In this case, they fail to check whether the client is actually the owner of the post. A fairly amateur mistake.

  14. Re:Great news on Microsoft Has Created Its Own FreeBSD (microsoft.com) · · Score: 1

    FreeBSD 10 is available on AWS. And that's why I currently use AWS. Competition is always good.

  15. Great news on Microsoft Has Created Its Own FreeBSD (microsoft.com) · · Score: 2

    Correct me if I'm wrong but with FreeBSD addition, Azure is the only major cloud provider besides AWS that offers all three major operating systems available today: Windows, Linux and FreeBSD. Will definitely consider Azure for my cross-platform endeavors in the future.

  16. Re:Might be asking too much on Canonical To Release Ubuntu Linux 16.04 LTS 'Xenial Xerus' Tomorrow (betanews.com) · · Score: 1

    I can finally install openjdk 8 without adding an external repo.

  17. Invoke Betteridge's law.

  18. Java 8 on Ubuntu 14.04.4 LTS Officially Released · · Score: 2

    After more than a year there is still no backport of openjdk8. Looks like I'll have to wait for 16.04.

  19. Wait what? on New Hack Shrinks Docker Containers (www.iron.io) · · Score: 1

    As far as I figured out, they use a very stripped down Linux distro called Alpine Linux as the base and then build a Docker image on top of that. How is this a hack? This just means you are now running Alpine Linux in your containers instead of your distro of choice which nobody really wants.

  20. Re:Not that Useful on Firefox Will Soon Show You Which Tabs Are Making Noise, and Let You Mute Them · · Score: 1

    It's usually a problem when you open several tabs at once and one of them starts playing. And you have no idea which one.

  21. Re:Take his own advice on Facebook's New Chief Security Officer Wants To Set a Date To Kill Flash · · Score: 2

    Indeed. Facebook had HTML5 video enabled on mobile for some time but until recently, the desktop page was still using Flash.

  22. FreeNAS on Ask Slashdot: With Whom Do You Entrust Your Long Term Data? · · Score: 1

    My 8TB Raidz2 FreeNAS box obviously.

  23. Re:Drop HTTP completely? on The Cost of the "S" In HTTPS · · Score: 2

    I believe HTTP 2.0 will pretty much require HTTPS at all times. So maybe in 20 years?

  24. Re:Cost of certificates on The Cost of the "S" In HTTPS · · Score: 1

    DANE and DNSSEC are the solutions. Too bad the adoption rate is very slow.

  25. Google.. on A Year With Google Glass · · Score: 1

    I can see the potential in glass but I don't like the idea of Google being behind this. Like everything else made by Google it will eventually become an ad infested data mining device. Do not want. As a matter of fact, I am trying to move away from all Google services because their presence is starting to creep me out.
