They are all available all the time. This change simply limits you to 3 per month. So unless you read more than 3 books per month, this change doesn't affect you at all.
Your private VPN is probably set up in a major hosting provider, like AWS or DigitalOcean, just like the major proxy services are. Netflix will just block the IPs of known hosting providers, so most private VPN's are probably SOL too.
If somebody has access to your phone, they have access to your email. If they have access to your email they have access to all your accounts since they can reset the passwords quite easily.
So make sure you have a secure lock screen on that phone to turn it into two-factor auth.
Tom's didn't test against AMD Godaveri, which has a substantially faster GPU than the Kaveri chips Tom's tested against. Godaveri is about 20% faster than than Kaveri, so would be competitive with these chips, as well as being about 1/3rd of the price.
"Actually works"? More accurately "works better than the only alternative". That's a very low bar, and they don't clear it by much. Using the nVidia driver on Linux is a giant pain in the butt unless your chosen distribution happens to ship with their binary drivers and you're OK using outdated drivers. It's also probably the largest software source of system instability for consumer Linux.
Certainly, the chances of a nuclear weapons attack have lessened significantly, but the danger is still very real.
Over 10 thousand nuclear weapons still exist, held by 9 different countries (assuming Israel still has them). That list includes North Korea and Pakistan. I don't have to say anything about North Korea. Pakistan can almost be called an active war zone. Putin appears to be deliberately antagonizing the States, and has just had his primary income source taken away from him. Incidents have come to light that even the nuclear weapons in the United States are not necessarily overseen and maintained correctly. Maybe some of the other 8 countries take better care, but I doubt that all do.
Historians have concluded that we've been damn lucky that we haven't already had a nuclear incident. Some things have changed, definitely lowering the chance of an incident, but not enough to lower it to zero.
It's a common human fallacy: it has never happened, therefore it's not going to happen.
Some experts place the probability of a nuclear incident in the next 10 years at 29%: http://nuclearrisk.org/3likely... That's a lot lower than the 10 year risk during the 60's and 70's, but it's still damn high. Even if they're off by an order of magnitude, a 3% risk of a nuclear incident is still damn scary.
You're right: the price of (domestic) air travel has nothing to do with expenses or distance. But that's because the cost has very little to do with variable expenses or distance.
The costs of airplane travel are pretty much fixed. It costs basically the same thing whether there is 1 passenger or the plane is full. Given turnover times, there's surprisingly little difference between shorter and longer domestic flights.
I could accept a 5% risk of death if I was doing something worthwhile: contributing to science or the colonization of Mars. But for a joy ride? Even if it's an order of magnitude better, a 5 in 1000 chance in death is still pretty high. That's a couple of orders of magnitude riskier than skydiving (0.0007%) or driving 10,000 miles. (0.0167%)
Waiting 15 years is a better deal than everybody else gets. Everybody else gets to wait indefinitely; most have to realize a loss before it can be claimed. In other words, if you overpay for an asset you don't get to claim a loss until you sell that asset to somebody else.
Right now if they ask you at the airport if you've been to Liberia, Sierra Leone or Guinea, people have no incentive to lie, so don't. If you make that illegal, it won't stop them from flying out of somewhere else, it will just make them lie to the immigration officials, making the problem worse, not better.
It's not a dumb move at all. Electric cars are still a very immature market, there are a lot more sales to be made from expanding the market than there are by stealing them from competitors. This is an "expand the market" type move.
Ottawa is one of the best cities in the world for salting and snow plowing. The difference you noticed Monday is simply that it was quite cold and the salt didn't work as well as it usually does.
RMS couldn't care less if other companies profit off of his work.
What he cares about is some company taking his work, making it better, selling it back to him and then not letting him hack on it, fix it, port it to unapproved hardware, use it for unapproved uses, et cetera.
You can install the update without connecting to the internet:
"However, to use the USB method the first time you take the PS4 system out of the box and before installing system software update 1.50, you’ll need to enable safemode. When the PS4 system is powered off, press and hold the Power Button for seven seconds to enter safemode."
How many people used the "disable javascript" option? NoScript is so superior that most people that would use disable javascript have or should have switched to NoScript. An option that nobody uses or nobody should use is the very definition of an option that should be removed.
I instruct the babysitter to SMS me if they need to. I will ignore vibrations from phone calls and emails, but an SMS is rare enough that it's probably the baby sitter, and I will answer it.
But if it is the babysitter, I probably need to leave anyways, so go ahead and kick me out. It would suck if it wasn't the babysitter, but that movie is probably costing me over >$100 because I have to pay the babysitter too, so I get really annoyed at those who ruin it for everybody...

Canonical is one of the best "netizens". Compare with Amazon, Google, Apple, et cetera.
They get criticized because Red Hat is better. But Red Hat is pretty much the only corporation that's a better netizen than Canonical, IMO.

Why should the drum-beating slacken off? Half as effective still means thousands of lives saved...

I expected the Nexus 6 to have a microSD card slot because they were supposed to gain first-class support in Android 5.0.
But it doesn't, so external storage support must still be a second class citizen on Android.

His method worked great to stop the SARS outbreak in Toronto.
And SARS was much more difficult to contain than Ebola since you were infectious before showing symptoms.

Is this something you tried recently? Phoronix did their testing with the 3.13 kernel.

Note that the title is wrong -- he was shot for texting during the previews, not during the movie itself.
Who do you sue if a driverless train runs over you? Who do you sue if a driven train runs over you?
In both cases, you sue the city. The city might try and recoup costs from the driver and/or the manufacturer, but the liability is clear either way.
