What an annoying site. Here I was hoping the bar would be raised with flash on the way out, but it looks like people can just recreate garbage flash sites with equally-bad HTML5 sites. The one upside is it's slightly usable on mobile, even if it still looks awful.
The title on your original link does say MTK6572, and from the pastebin linked elsewhere it seems the RPi2 is also a Cortex-A7. I agree it's still a pretty old architecture though.
Nvidia used to make integrated chipsets for Intel and AMD, what changed is Intel no longer licenses the chipsets for the i7+ and AMD is now a direct competitor with their purchase of ATI.
I've got about 1100 albums in a library of over 300GB (90% lossless), even running with the actual tracks on my NAS over WiFi to my MBP, it's very fast. I don't understand the people who say it's slow, maybe it's slow under WinXP on qemu on a raspberry pi?
4.4.4.4 = is not a valid DNS server, likely they meant 8.8.4.4 which is the secondary Google Public DNS address.
It's also possible they meant 4.2.2.[1-6] (of which 4.2.2.4 may be the most popular), which isn't really a public DNS server either, but may be close enough to count as a backup for Google.
Framerate performance is... meh. For the hardware I'm running on (eVGA GTX 670FTW, Intel 2600k), I'd expect nothing less than a rock solid 60fps with the graphics on mid-to-high settings. Most of the time there isn't anything graphically intensive going on, but my framerate often dipped into the low 20s anyways.
I'm running everything maxed on a 560Ti / 3930k. Everything seems smooth although I'm not watching the FPS. Maybe it's more CPU dependent?
And you should have spent an additional 10 seconds (maybe more, it was running slow) to look at the pictures linked in the main article. The MacBook Pro Retina has 16 DDR3L chips on each side of the motherboard, and the SO-DIMM I linked has 8 DDR3L chips on each side of each piece. That's 16 * 2 = 32 chips on the MBP, and 8 * 2 * 2 = 32 (two pieces, two sides each) chips in the linked memory. Which one is higher density? (The chips are the same size) The cost of soldering thing was a joke, btw, and it maks me sad to have to even mention that.
The trouble with this argument is that WiFi very rarely "just works" without "fiddling about with drivers" while bluetooth always "just works" and bluetooth tethering has been around for years.
3/10. The concept is good but you gotta keep it a bit more subtle, otherwise people are gonna stop reading around 'bluetooth always "just works"'.
I don't doubt that, but while the User ID tags embedded in iTunes+ downloads are pretty well known, I can't find any info (besides that article) about Amazon watermarking mp3 downloads, especially in a user identifiable way. OP implied that Amazon themselves were marking downloads.
Since Amazon itself does not apply the watermarks, and labels presumably supply only one MP3 copy of any given song, there’s no way for a label to directly identify and sue an individual if, say, someone were to steal that person’s iPod and share its songs all over the internets

Dual core A9? You sure about that?

Decrypting the contents may not be necessary for nefarious uses
A more reasonable issue may be people targeting US passports for thefts.

In each case that generateSeed() is called, it's also combined with some data from /dev/urandom
Wrong.

Yeah, it's not like they sell a similar adapter for $9

10 seconds with google finds this:

8GB PC3L-12800 1600MHZ SODIMM $65/ea.
That's $130 for 16GB, vs $180 from Apple. Maybe the extra $50 is the cost of soldering it to the motherboard?
FYI, the newer Intel Mac Mini has an integrated AC power supply (only the original and early Intel use DC-in with an external brick)
Why weren't you using Time Machine?
Apple hasn't shipped a mouse with only a single button in 5 years. Troll harder next time.

I like the inline post expansion and reply. Everything else can die in a fire.
Just as long as he doesn't violate FCC rules by retransmitting it (unless it's playing from the space shuttle)
Yeah, PARC really got swindled with that worthless Apple stock they got.
Only if it includes an email client.

Watermarked content (...) Amazon audio
I'm gonna need some more information here.
According to this:
Since Amazon itself does not apply the watermarks, and labels presumably supply only one MP3 copy of any given song, there’s no way for a label to directly identify and sue an individual if, say, someone were to steal that person’s iPod and share its songs all over the internets
You privy to any more information than that?
