I would say the USPS showed as much care as the original packer showed using brown wrapping paper with no reinforcement to group two used boxes together.
At least for me the darn things are too bright even with brightness set to 0, especially at night. Maybe it's just the monitor I chose:/
On the plus side if I ever want to use this monitor outside in the sunlight, It might just be bright enough on high to do that.
As far as blue light, yea it helps a bit making things have a yellow tint, but it sure would be MORE helpful to have a lower range of brightness in general.
And that water isn't frozen when it is below the surface, so it contains some heat. I guess that heat will just radiate into the atmosphere, with no ill effects. Just what the Arctic needs, a giant heat pump!
Many monitors do not support the full color spectrum, instead they dither colors to be 'closer'. This can cause unwanted artifacts. Also it will make some pixels 'not what the computer software intended'. Using a digital interface such as hdmi or displayport will not help in this case.
The tangible problem is if you need low latency, or want to maintain the latency you have, when your upstream connection is saturated. At least I think that is what it means.
Why would you draw public attention to an exploit? You report it to the software authors and give them time. Anything else is completely irresponsible.
Sure, maybe go all sensational when the software authors refuse to listen to you for several months, and machines are falling left and right, however this doesn't look to be the case. They are never given a chance before public announcement. And at least on my Fedora 23, game-music-emu is NOT installed by default.
Look everyone I found a bug! Look at me! All your machines can be mine if you just install this normally not installed software, then visit this here website!
Just file the bug and let them fix it, till then just stfu.
Verizon recently introduced a $2.80 (plus taxes) fee for my FIOS router, which they claim is old -- and to "support it" they need this monthly fee.
I got the same warning of the impending 2.80 fee to support old routers. I was on 15/15, which was a holdover from signing up years ago. Since it was nearing time to to 'renew' my contract, I checks the options. It wound up being 10.00 cheaper per month to upgrade to 50/50 - and since I was upgrading to 50 or higher they gave me a new quantum blah blah router free of charge.
So to avoid the 2.80 fee I wound of with faster service and a new router for 10.00 less. If you are on a 'contract agreement' with verizon, you can upgrade or renew that contract at any time.
The original linked article only says 'bitterly cold', which depending on the person could be anything below room temperature. The slashdot summary may have looked at the area weather forecast, and says lows INTO the 30s, which could just mean 39F. Then you have a poster reminding readers that 32F = 0C, now we hit freezing. The latest number thrown out is -2C (around 28F), now it's below freezing.

That is what I thought too, but the summary just plain butchered this line:
And Netflix notes that the feature doesn’t support any and all Android devices with a microSD slot.
However even that was clear as mud due to the horrible choice of grammar.
.. cause far more outages and damage. Squirrels merely live in trees. Blame the trees.
Doesn't this go both ways ?
... but for some reason lots of people have smart phones that don't even need to be plugged into the wall to make a call.
Last I checked those things need to be plugged into something almost every night, or they stop working.
The rationale for Altaba is that the key sequence can be easily struck by the first three fingers of the left hand. Try it!
Hey, who put the L way over there?
Brand names like McDonald's, Home Depot and Disney grew at a paltry 1.6% or less; bitcoin outpaced them by over 70 times.
Is bitcoin trying to be a currency, or an investment scheme ?

Try uMatrix as an alternative to noscript. Same author as uBlock. Note that it may be a little overwhelming at first.
Only a single (") quote style is available on a standard keyboard. That is what happened.
Put some high rises in and around those neighborhoods along with more public transit and problem solved.
NIMBY.

Smart phones have changed how people think about money.
I bet it's cheaper to pay that one time fee, instead of Nintendo using the current phone economics model to take it drip by drip.
Hey slow down there buddy, this ain't razor blades!

Completely agree. 'Security researchers' report bugs to the software authors, not to the public.
'Zero day'. 'world of hurt'.

This is a great way to test a government backed kill switch.
Sorry, gotta run. My tinfoil hat is tingling.
There's a license for that!
I think they went here.

Isn't it fun how numbers change so quickly?
Granted some lights are complicated, with all those left turn lanes. But seriously, just wait your turn. Relax.
The UK has advertisement free web viewing ?
And their websites don't occasionally have a script that pegs the cpu and makes the browser a sluggish mess ?
Really, 'broadband experience' has little do with connection speed once you pass 5mbit unless the website is horribly bloated.
To keep slightly on topic, if surveillance and logging is noticeable to the common citizen, then they are doing it wrong.
