HTTPS only ensures security between the browser and the web server. HTTPS is not designed to ensure security of what the browser decides to store locally.
Of course not, and no one is claiming that. What the article tries to say with "despite the use of https", is that the browser should do the right thing and continue the chain of safety when it has dealt with HTTPS material.
I wonder if there are backlight PWM issues. Maybe someone has once again figured that it improves motion response if you blink the backlight at some crappy 120-240Hz rate. And it does, but also gives a scorching head- and eye-ache to some people.
One of the big underlying problems seems to be that when someone is a big contributor of some article, he ends up guarding it and the article just "feels wrong" to him when someone else modifies it, even if the contributions would objectively make sense. Let the information evolve and the words be shuffled around, it's not your precious snowflake thesis...
Dave Jones (EEVBlog) rants about the changes that affect content creators. These include changes to the commenting system such that it's practically impossible to do a proper reply, including notifications when new comments are posted. Even worse is that all the stuff you get notified about now only happens via G+.
Some of his complaints were fixed. It's possible to reply normally now. What still bugs is that to see the parent comment by clicking the "in reply to (name)", the whole video page reloads. In the past, it did not.
Probably so, but let's be careful about stating that as a fact. The amount of commits per day for Linux increases all the time and so does the probability that someone manages to sneak something nasty there. All I'm saying is that we should still keep our eyes open.
The decision to prefer ODF as the document format is my favorite part here. Office and its DOCX format is pretty much the last big thing holding people to the Microsoft monoculture. More ODF files should be put into circulation in the business world.
Hmm...not necessarily. While your catch obviously is "...but not for a very long time", there is simply not enough electrons in one battery to cover the entire solar system even for an extremely short time.
Also, many daily services like online banking, are premium quality. Actually, I dare to say that if you hire Finns to make any kind of web service, the general quality is usually quite good.
Why anyone ever thought Canonical wouldn't end up being vile shit bags? I have never liked Ubuntu specifically because it has a corporation tied to it... and being that the nature of corporations is to make money at all costs and above all else, their stupid anti-OSS decisions could and should have been foreseen at the start (yes, this is worth the karma hit from fanboys).
What the heck? Almost all of the work in open source comes from companies. Linux would be a stone age operating system today if it wasn't for companies putting big bucks behind development.
Slashdot Mirror
You mean, like Linus said that Steam might be something that actually helps the Linux desktop?
Again, no one is claiming that they are the same thing. It's just not a bad idea if the browser also takes good care of data.

Before we had only very vague picture of what NSA was doing.

Check-mate.
I will edit that to be "Touché." instead!
What is DASH?

they never planned on supporting it for 12 years, they just wound up supporting it, because well, just because no one wants to give it up.
It also interestingly shows that there is a market demand for ultra-long-term-support desktop OS.
Angry Birds.

should of
In the recent couple of years a new trend seems to have emerged where people incorrectly write "should of" instead of "should have".
Actually in this case it would be more interesting to flip that argument and find the edge cases in which this idea works and is viable.
Anyone?
Hmm...not necessarily. While your catch obviously is "...but not for a very long time", there is simply not enough electrons in one battery to cover the entire solar system even for an extremely short time.
I also wonder how big role the inefficiencies of the batteries play. I mean, you don't get the same energy out that you put into them.
Also, many daily services like online banking, are premium quality. Actually, I dare to say that if you hire Finns to make any kind of web service, the general quality is usually quite good.
Hah! Although, if you take vanilla Angry Birds and manage to get full 3 stars in all levels, you are quite tough guy.
I guess SteamOS would still work better if you want a "10-foot user interface", i.e. a simple to use living room gaming OS.
I browse Linux commit logs every now and then and these days there are surprisingly many various game controller patches flowing in. Good.
I stopped watching traditional TV years ago. YouTube, YLE Areena and Twitch are my television now.

I'm sorry, Ubuntu experienced an internal error...
Good point. Many distros are just the same software repackaged, branded with a different default wallpaper and splash screen.
