Debian Stable, as of this writing, has Chromium [1] version 63.0.3239.84-1~deb9u1, which is roughly up to date with the current Chrome Stable Channel release. Given this, I'm not sure why you claim it is out of date. Are you running oldstable? In which case, you would have Chromium [2] version 57.0.2987.98-1~deb8u1, which is indeed about 9 months out of date and vulnerable.
There is another way to go about it. If you trust Google's Linux software repository, you can install the repo's GPG key first: https://www.google.com/linuxre...
After that, all downloads from Google, e.g. apt-get install google-chrome-stable, gets the same GPG verification as anything from Debian/Ubuntu. Downloads are still over HTTP, just like Debian/Ubuntu, because the GPG verification is there to actually verify the downloads.
The So Cal Linux Expo and Texas Linux Fest both use scalereg for attendee + staff registration. It can probably be customized to meet your needs without too much effort. (Note, I'm the primary scalereg author.)
For ECC, many modern Pentium and i3 CPUs also support ECC. See http://ark.intel.com/products/... for example - 2 core @ 3.8 GHz for $150, perfect for a single process task. Most i5 and i7s have ECC disabled. At that point, just pay the relatively small premium for the Xeon versions.
Google Chrome will run if you just extract the.deb file, but the SUID sandbox won't work because it expects the chrome-sandbox binary to be SUID and at the right location.
I bought nimh batteries from thomas-distributing as well and I'm happy with them. I also have a bunch of ray-o-vac rechargable alkalines. You should buy the right type of battery depending on your situation:
The nimh batteries work great for items like mp3 players and cameras that draw a lot of power. Rechargable alkalines tend to die after half an hour in my mp3 player. Rechargable alkalines work better in items like graphing calculators and palmpilots, which does not drain the battery as fast. In these devices, nimh batteries do not work well because they slowly lose their charge over a few weeks and then one day you try to turn on your calculator and it doesn't work.
In any case, you have to make an effort to remember to charge the batteries, but it really helps the environment because you're reducing the amount of battery waste by 10X-100X.
Having your calender off can be bothersome. For example, Firefox will complain about SSL certificates being invalid because the calendar date is earlier than the certificate's start valid date.
My roommate's dad decided to ship an athlon in a regular letter envelope. We took it out and straightened out all the smashed pins. Worked fine.
Then there was the cyrix chip in the socket 5. See, the socket 5 was perfectly symmetrically, so I plugged the cpu in backwards. My room smelled like burnt silicon for a couple days...

Shift+space acts as a page-up in Chrome and Firefox, at least.
Has this always been a problem or did it start again in Chrome 54? You may want to file a bug report about it? https://crbug.com/new
Umm, Chrome for Mac has been 64-bit only for a year now. http://www.computerworld.com/a...

No, Chromium development is nothing like Android development. You can watch Chromium checkins go in around the clock: http://build.chromium.org/
This is due to Chrome's webrequest extension API: http://developer.chrome.com/extensions/webRequest.html
Fix has already landed on Chrome Canary: http://crrev.com/231405

Not going to happen. Google has a dual class shares. Class B Google stock gets 10x more votes.

I don't see any fear, uncertainty or doubt in the tweet.
You have the freedom to buy an Android phone of your choice. Buy one that's not locked.
Google Chrome will run if you just extract the .deb file, but the SUID sandbox won't work because it expects the chrome-sandbox binary to be SUID and at the right location.
When the next Google Chrome beta comes out, the two tracks will differ. Until then, they are on the same version.
What sources are you basing your claims of insecurity on? Have you read http://webblaze.cs.berkeley.edu/2010/secureextensions/ ?

I downloaded the file using bittorrent, and then checked its edonkey hash against the edonkey link provided on the website and they matched.
reminds me of Stallman...
Does anyone realize this news story is half an year old? <sarcasm>let's post some april fool's story tomorrow!</sarcasm>
slight problem, slackware doesn't use PAM.
