  1. why do you post this fake news garbage? on Poachers Are Trying To Hack Animal Tracking Systems (helpnetsecurity.com) · · Score: 3, Interesting

    There is in fact ZERO documented reports of this actually happening.

  2. is that like YT/Twitch, except you cant select what and when you watch it?

  3. Flawed Bill, sneaky language on The Videogame Industry Is Fighting 'Right To Repair' Laws (vice.com) · · Score: 1

    >require manufacturers to sell replacement parts and repair tools to independent repair companies and consumers at the same price they are sold to authorized repair centers

    It so happens Apple does NOT sell any parts/tools/manuals to their "authorized repair centers". What they do is let you use the name, and in exchange get paid $18 per item you ship to Apples Texas facility for exchange, all while charging your client $149-1299.

    This is a TERRIBLE IDEA!

    Get a clue. If a state makes a law that anyone can get access to repair parts and manuals the manufacturer will close all authorized service in that state. Require shipping the device out of state for repair.

    Congrats, you just described APPLE _right now_. Yes, Get a clue.

  6. Who ships packages without proof of delivey??? on UPS Develops 'Rolling Warehouse' System In Which Drones Are Launched From Atop Trucks (bloomberg.com) · · Score: 1

    I dont know of a EU service even allowing shipping a package without proof of delivery. Reading all the horror stories about US postal service/private shipping Im just baffled. Why would you ship anything with a knowledge it will be tossed from a truck into your lawn/door for everyone to see???!?!

  7. Re:You aren't training your feed properly. on Disney, YouTube Cut Ties With PewDiePie, Top YouTube Submitter, Over Anti-Semitic Videos (techcrunch.com) · · Score: 1

    It doesnt work (probably because I told YT to not save my history, which somehow doesnt stop them from building a profile on me and suggesting garbage).

    Pewretarddie, h3whatever, 10funnycompilationssomething, someotherrandombro13, day in day out same fucktards are being pushed into my recommended.

  8. Apple fought it in 2015 too on Apple Will Fight 'Right To Repair' Legislation (vice.com) · · Score: 1
  9. I care, because there is a chance YT will stop spamming this retards videos into my recommend feed like they were somehow thematically similar to the clip I currently watch (oscilloscope repair for example).

  12. Re:This is why you hire a lawyer on Jury Orders Oculus To Pay $500 Million In ZeniMax Lawsuit (polygon.com) · · Score: 2

    The code Carmack tool was for Doom 3. You know, the very same code HE personally wrote, owned, and released under GPL before selling ID Software.

    so 4K is indeed just hidden in the YT player, but present in the manifest

  16. Re:Why dont they open source on Opera Presto Source Code Leaks Online (bleepingcomputer.com) · · Score: 1

    Because despite switching business model to manufacturing Chrome Skin Opera realizes Presto is still a quality product that could compete successfully, so why give it away?

  17. I have a deal for you, Ill send you 10 water damaged iphones, you will recover data from them thru Apple using this 'Free of charge' service I never heard about, and I will pay you $200 per phone.

    Easy $2K, what do you say champ?

  18. Does Apple even offer official data recovery (beyond copying backup from icloud)? Afaik they dont.

  19. if you are in Europe try the bargain bin brands, they are almost all manufactured by one company https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/...
    those are very basic big panel + super basic _non smart_ controller at very low prices.

  20. What background apps? do they mean keylogging spyware^^^Customer Experience Improvement Program? ETL tracing running 24/7 and writing ~1GB to disk per day? Cortana calling home once per hour no matter what? Metro garbage?

    Canada Post is the worst of the bunch. They absolutely REFUSE to knock or ring a doorbell, instead leaving boxes in plain sight on my front porch next to a busy road for anyone to see.

    So whats the problem? Claim every package left like that as missing and collect insurance.
