  1. Cheetos!

    And 'Flipboard'? Who the hell are they?

    The bundeled app you get with a new android phone

    IIRC, it doesn't work with s/mime encoded pgp.

    You can disable javascript per site (with chrome at least). Helps a lot on some pages, like on slashdot.org.

    Ryzen from the dead!

  5. Re:Actually there's 5 chipsets on AMD Announces X300 and X370 AM4 Motherboards For Ryzen, All CPUs Unlocked (hothardware.com) · · Score: 2

    The summary is basically a lie. There's the X370, B350, A320, X300, and A300 chipsets. By the way, is anyone else concerned about the 8 lanes of PCI-E? Intel Z170 has 16-20 if I remember correctly.

    Most probably the CPU will host the main GPU at x16, and the mobo chipset the second one at x8

  6. I've read you can use GPO to set the menu for all user, but then they cannot modify it. Maybe you can just push the menu database on all pc after installation.

  7. Ain't seen memory leaks for years... are you with us in 2016?

  12. Re:Signal not mentioned on Snapchat, Skype Put Users' 'Human Rights at Risk', Amnesty Int'l Reports (cbsnews.com) · · Score: 4, Interesting

    I ran it a while. Had bugs, redphone crash and no way to disable it, installed version outdated that would stop working in 7 days, but no update available... I use Silence now, like Signal was before droping SMS support. No centralised server, no issues.

  13. Re:Root my Android phone? on 'Most Serious' Linux Privilege-Escalation Bug Ever Is Under Active Exploit (arstechnica.com) · · Score: 1

    VPN on android with the compression and encryption is a cpu and battery drain. The best way to block most ads is via /etc/hosts. You still get unity video ads though... then you use lucky patcher :)

  14. can we see those photos?

    Come back when Firefox is properly multithreaded and not plagued by memory leaks.

    Hey hey! 2016 is here! You can enable e10s in Firefox 48. Also, haven't had memory issues since firefoxs 45. The browser stays around 300 and 500 MB RAM.
