  1. Re:100% Irrelevant in 2019 on Disc-Free Xbox One S Could Land on May 7 (techcrunch.com) · · Score: 1

    The Nintendo Wii and the Nintendo Wii U also had firmware updates for consoles on game discs.

  2. Re: I'd want to know how to disable the behavior on Security Researchers Express Concerns Over Mozilla's New DNS Resolution For Firefox (ungleich.ch) · · Score: 1

    about:config
    network.trr.mode = 5 to completely disable it

    0 Off. To use operating system resolver.
    1 Race native against TRR. Do both in parallel and go with the one that returns a result first. Most likely the native one will win.
    2 First. Use TRR first, and only if the secure resolution fails use the operating system resolver.
    3 Only. Only use TRR. Never use the native (after the initial setup).
    4 Shadow. Runs the TRR resolves in parallel with the native for timing and measurements but uses only the native resolver results.
    5 Off by choice This is the same as 0 but marks it as done by choice and not done by default.

  3. A amateur radio not "an ham radio".

  4. Re:Stop calling it social media on Is Social Media Making Us Hate Each Other? (bostonglobe.com) · · Score: 1

    A bigger problem is the media referring everything as social media when in fact they mean social network or website.

    This then brainwashes people into saying shit like "I have social media accounts". No you don't you have a social networking accounts.

    Social media = content.
    Social network = website or service.

  5. Re:Bad design.... on Boy, 4, Uses Siri To Help Save Mum's Life (bbc.com) · · Score: 1

    You don't need to unlock or even have a SIM card inserted at all to call emergency on a mobile/cell phone. As long as it it powered on and can pickup any network it should work.

    Even if there is no network it will keep trying.

    Educating everybody including kids about this is important.

    Air-Stream in South Australia have been doing this successfully for a long time and is one of the largest wireless community networks in the world.

    Also WACAN in Western Australia is doing well.

    It's always played archive.org games fine for me in Pale Moon, maybe look into the problem a little more.

    The 7th Guest is awesome.

  14. Re:XB1 and PS4 Integration? on Meet YouTube Gaming, Twitch's Archenemy · · Score: 1

    YouTube is just about everywhere even on the Nintendo Wii U and 3DS.

    If they don't get YouTube Gaming everywhere separately I’m sure they will just work it into their current apps.

  15. Skype also discriminates URLs as hyperlinks on Typing 'http://:' Into a Skype Message Trashes the Installation Beyond Repair · · Score: 1

    What would also be nice is if they fixed the issue that all URLs are converted to hyperlinks and stop discriminating on top level domains.

    I am part of a community wireless network which runs its own DNS where the top level domain is .wan

    Pasting a URL into skype does not turn it into a hyperlink for the recipient like other URLs do. The recipient has to manually copy and paste the text into their browser.

  16. Search for text when i start typing on Mozilla Teams Up With Humble Bundle To Offer Eight Plugin-Free Games · · Score: 1

    On the FireFox start page the game can't be controlled if you have "Search for text when I start typing" enabled in options.

  17. Re:None of them. on Which Is Better, Adblock Or Adblock Plus? · · Score: 4, Insightful

    Even better is to redirect hosts on the router so it applies to the whole network.

    New clients on the network (such as friends and family when they come over) would be covered too.
