  1. Consider it innovation on Microsoft Rolls Out New Skype for Web; Does Not Support Firefox, Safari, and Opera (venturebeat.com) · · Score: 4, Insightful

    Destroying the Skype platform isnt easy. MS are close to have exhausted possibilities for ruining this product which was once great..before MS bought it.. Splitting it into private and skype for business was bold, suddenly you had 2 fragments. Then they destroyed the manager so Skype for business suddenly became Skype for employees that work in a company that previously used Skype, because no sane company would implement a solution with a crippled central management. Then MS took the liberty to turn Skype into Teams..which is like replacing a Ghettoblaster with a piece of toilet paper, great for each purpose but not a replacement... So whoever came up with this broken browser solution, really had to think and innovate, to find the last ways to ruin Skype, I think people should appreciate that!

    Agree, the target audience is nonexistant. Devices that only offers USB-C does most likely also have BT.

  5. Re:Is this a trick question? on Why Did The Stars Wars and Star Trek Worlds Turn Out So Differently? (marginalrevolution.com) · · Score: 5, Funny

    The main difference is that star wars actually happened, while star trek is science fiction.

  6. Re:Don't buy these--they WERE wonderful on The WRT54GL: A 54Mbps Router From 2005 Still Makes Millions For Linksys · · Score: 1

    5) Speed: The WRT54G maxed out ~20Mbit (wired) and 6-12Mbit (wireless) running Tomato. The RT-N66U does around 50/225Mbit wireless/wired and the RT-AC68U pushes 400/900.

    I get around 42Mbit routed throughput wired, with firewall enabled, QOS disabled running dd-wrt on a wrt54gl. Far more than your 20mbit, but still i think this is the keypoint where this device has aged too much.

  7. Controversal design , 12 engines deadweight +drag on NASA Unveils Plans For Electric-Powered Plane (techcrunch.com) · · Score: 1

    12 engines as deadweight and dragging props, that doesnt seem very efficient ? Even with foldable props, they will induce a significant drag. I am sure NASA can come up with a better solution for extra power needed for takeoff.

  11. Default clause in contract on Landlords Want a Share of Renters' Airbnb Revenue (thestack.com) · · Score: 1

    In Denmark it is a defacto standard clause in a contract to mention what the renter is allowed to do with the rented. Subletting is a very common clause. Problem solved.

  12. Re:The US will start smaller on In Ireland, All RC and Drones Over 1kg To Be Registered (suasnews.com) · · Score: 1

    A football weights more and goes faster, fortunately they dont have to be registered. I think a better approach would be to regulate where you can fly. I just started on RC flying in Denmark, we have regulations that says you cant fly 5km from an airfield, above 100meter or near streets,near accidents and some other rules that ought to be common sense for most. If it was mandatory to register as RC pilot first, and complete a simple rc-license-test , i think the growing number of accidents could be reduced dramatically , with little impact of those who fly by the rules.

  13. Re:Dangerous Precedent on Quebec Plans To Require Website Blocking, Studies New Internet Access Tax · · Score: 2

    Canadians are lucky, us in Denmark are censored and billed in a way that will make north koreans laugh. We are being blocked from sites operating in other EU countries that sells real estate, because of a civil copyright dispute between 2 estate companies, still the court have ordered ISP's to block acces to the site (http://homelifespain.com) . Other gambling sites are also blocked in similar cases as the topic, to gain revenue to the government supported gambling site. Top of the cake is that we have to pay 2460 DKK (360 USD) pr year for "being able to acces Danish Radios website". Anyone with a personal computer or smartphone , must pay this media license, regardless if you use their website or not. We must pay not because we use the service, but because "we are capable of". So dear Canada, while you have my sympathy, i just want to let you know it could be much worse.

  14. Re:Credential phising on Comcast Converting 50,000 Houston Home Routers Into Public WiFi Hotspots · · Score: 1

    I am more worried that they will screw up like the Danish provider YouSee did, they HAD a similar hot-spot system. Atleast until someone found a security flaw in the modem/router, permitting access from the guest network to the customers netowkr. This is a disaster waiting to happen again. The hotspot service is still closed, despite it happened in march.

  16. Re:CompuTrace on Ask Slashdot: Good Tracking Solutions For Linux Laptop? · · Score: 1

    The CompuTrace solution is available on the majority of business notebooks, being a HP freak myself i can confirm it is available in most probook and elitebook series, while not available in the pavilion(private) segment. Fujitsu Siemens and Lenovo (and probably others) offer it too. It is not free, but should be considered as an insurrance. Hardware based solution is only way to go ,if the junkie that steals it cant surf porn on it right away, it will be reinstalled and all the fancy software solutions are gone.
