Started using "My Data Manager" recently on android. It shows data by app per time period. There's a lot of other stuff out there, probably plenty better and plenty worse, and probably most of it free like this one. Still...it seems pretty invaluable. I just use it to see which apps are using way more data than they ought to on my unlimited plan, but it also lets you set alarms, and it differentiates between wifi/phone data use.
Ehh, that's not entirely reasonable. I mean, kind of, but it's like the "pirating vs stealing" thing. You're not strictly depriving the dealership of being able to sell that copy of the software again. (Unless it has unique keys even for oems, but that's still silly.)
Man, now I really really want an exploit that hijacks/dev/null and logs it (with reasonable limits to prevent overloading it by piping in gigabytes of random). I'm sure you learn some pretty neat stuff from whatever output normally gets sent there.
Serious question. (And yes I know they contain carbon.)
I mean, normally I'm really against organic crops because they take up more space per person fed, which isn't so great for environmental preservation. This stuff on the other hand, doesn't need pesticides or anything. Seems very hippie-friendly, but on the other hand they aren't going to help out bees or whatever. Not sure how expensive it'll be, but with this kind of space efficiency (and quite likely better quality output) sure I'd pay the 'organic' markup for it.
The summary title directly contradicts the summary text. They predicted ones that they hadn't seen yet. Then they found a way to see them, and it matched up with predictions. How is that "more than we thought" at all?
They can take my pre-Hangouts Chat when they pry it from my cold, dead fingers. Or disable the classic version, whatever, but I might actually move services if that happens.
Does Hangouts still refuse to show status icons for available/away or PC/phone? What the hell kind of chat application doesn't even let you see when the person you're talking to is there?
Man, Tor has been a joke for years now. It's commonly accepted that it's compromised with dozens of documented or secretive exploits all over its endpoints. It feels like it offers about as much security as putting a password on a zip file: enough to discourage someone who doesn't really care.
I looked briefly through TFA but they're really uninformative when it comes to summarizing (or they're full of giant pictures and videos). What's the significance of this thing? Is it just Google Earth for stars? Why does it need a client?
There was a lot of research into how that happened in California. Basically all the liberal voters said "dude, it's california, there's no way we could possibly lose because we vastly outnumber our opposition, let's stay home and smoke pot" while the conservative voters threw a ton of money at getting out the vote. Public votes on the issue never seem to mirror opinion polls, nowhere near.
In case you haven't noticed, a lot of Republican candidates are already saying "well I didn't support it but now it's the law of the land" and they're going to ignore it as much as possible, talking meaningless fluff while their party manages to avoid rights actually being taken away. This election would go much worse for the Republicans if marriage equality was lost--there'd be a lot of people angry at them, but the number of people angry at this ruling is a lot less.
Same with the ACA being ruled constitutional (even if its wording was really questionable). It's not the outcome Republicans wanted, but it'll help them a ton in the elections. If they smacked it down and a bunch of people lost insurance, then you've got a bunch of angry people on election day.
Yeah. Liberal victories in the Supreme Court means that the Liberal base is content while the Conservative base is all riled up. Oh yeah, and remember that odds are in favor of the next sitting president appointing multiple supreme court justices. Whatever their policies are, doesn't have nearly as much effect as replacing Kennedy with someone who's not a swing vote.
Yeah, if nobody in the SCOTUS kicks the bucket before this presidential term is up, it means that the next president's policies will be far less influential to the country than the near certainty of them replacing multiple supreme court justices.

Man, you weren't kidding about talking in code.
Because swatting sounds a lot like attempted murder to me.

As the evil empire of this decade, we really need a snarky nickname like that for Google.
I got over Fark a long time ago.
Ah, okay. That does make a lot of sense. Thanks!

Really just arguing against the analogy here.

Uh, wasn't there someone flying around the world in a solar plane or something? Going across the Channel seems like really tiny potatoes.
If you can cut something from 3lb to 2lb, that just means you have room for 1lb more battery.
Same thing applies with phones. Stop making them thinner, and use the saved space for more battery!
If Slashdot dropped every article about an actual product (as opposed to news or science stories), we'd have even less content...

C'mon, editors...
...and a whole bunch of other things. I'm pretty sure I'm one of these people.
Seriously, what's not to love about caffeinated orange soda?
Honorable warfare between distant clans is all well and good until someone decides to retake the Inner Sphere.
Ah, fond memories of trying to break through the floors of the Fire and Ice arenas.
At the very least, Google Chat commits all your conversations to a mail folder. Does Hangouts not do that?

Thank you for that. I've been trying to resist sinking my whole holiday weekend getting back into that game, but I think it's inevitable.
Yeah, watching them scroll by, there's a lot of way-less-subtle-than-normal death and terrorism threat. Gotta love those compassionate conservatives.
