Could you imagine using your own hardware, on your own connection to run your bootstrapped side-project for $100/mo? I'd rather not have to pay Amazon, OVH, or whoever just to be able to service side-projects.

Personally, I can't understand why you care about how 'we' handle guns in our country. I don't own a gun, but I appreciate the right for my fellow citizens. I don't care if you ban it in your country; why are you so interested in restrictin

I don't have much experience with AWS other than S3, so I can't tell if the pricing point they are making is actually legit. Anyone with actual knowledge care to comment? Meta : The lack of discussion here is why people use link-bait title

This machine runs the only ARM CPU I can find that has no GPU, and is intended to be run headless (this machine has a backup battery and 2 LAN ports). I'm not sure why few hackers are interested in this right now, but I believe over the nex

I'm sorry, but as an actual member of this community, I find your objections a bit ridiculous. I, personally, keep everything I do on my local network, but I like it when people do these "Show HN" pieces. It's almost as if you are persona

Sorry for the beginner questions, but how did the remote port change from 80 to 4007? Are you NATed on both ends? And, how did you go about getting the IP:port of your local router? Are you using some tool, or do you have root on your offic

I've always thought of CL as a community/local site, meaning it is up to the community to really shape it. CL can provide guidance and tools, but it is still up to the community; for example, if your community actively uses the flagging fea

In general, investing in consumer facing stocks is not desirable. They are subject to greater volatility, and more people believe they understand your business because they are consumers of your product which can lead to further distortions

I'm not sure what you are talking about, but the Price:Earnings ratio is not a guess. It is based on past SEC filings. To suggest as much indicates a significant lack of understanding on your part, and I am really not sure what business you

Just to be clear. I also use StraightTalk, but here in Colorado, they are an MVNO for Verizon. Carlos Slim's organization has been able to cut MVNO deals with all 3 large US carriers I believe, and it's easy to understand the leverage they

I just went to see if I could find the "2040," but it seem the lowest-end I could find was the v3140. Am I missing something? Older model? Anyway, when I went to see what these appliances' specs are and what they would sell for, it was obvi

While you seem to imply that the FTB could simply change the rules, everyone else on this thread seems to think the FTB is not able to alter the rules at all (as that would require the legislative authority they do not have). Are you sure t

Admittedly, my knowledge is a little bit out of date, but that is one chip out of several that I know over the last 7 years. You used the word "typically," and as you can imagine, the telcos have a preference for treating the SIM as the sec

Actually, this is untrue, and I know of no NFC ASIC with an integrated secure element (not NXP, nor Sony); the ASICs are typically just transceivers (the exception being an NXP ASIC with embedded MiFare). The SIM has been identified for a l

Kids in the 80s used telephones. Very few people knew what a BBS was and had the means to get on a BBS. I certainly didn't know anyone that was using a modem in the 80s.

This is good advice, but I would ad Request Policy (if using Firefox) or Ghostery (if using Chrome; I would also suggest using Chromium instead of Chrome). I believe NoScript is also a must, but it does take some work to whitelist the sites

While this was somewhat humorous, I don't think not charging on day one matters. In fact, Salesforce[1] has been offering a similar product for 5 years. You may have seen it in action on Dell's Ideastorm site, or Starbucks (not sure if that
