She needs better treatment, so perhaps someday she could live something even resembling a normal life. She already gets plenty of accomodations from the government and society as a whole, living in a group home, etc. I don't know what

Only for those on the lighter edge of the spectrum. I have a severely autistic sister who requires constant care and could never be functional in society. I feel I have more right to speak for her than the OP does. The neurotypical or neuro

There are lots of companies working on light solar-powered drones, and in fact some of them call them pseudo-satellites. Airbus, Boeing, NASA, DARPA... the list goes on and on. This really isn't a setback for the field in general.

Really? I was under the impression that he followed through some fairly extensive inquiries. I'll have to do some more research, but if what you say is true, then I might have to reevaluate my position again. If he didn't even att

I actually agree with you there. If you browse some of my older comment history, I made that exact point that he trusted a foreign journalist team to filter sensitive NOFORN and SAP information. However, I believe the net good that has come

I'm for a pardon for Snowden, but not Manning. Snowden released info on a deeply classified and unethical program, targeted to dismantle the programs in question. Manning carte blanche released TONS of data about TONS of things, trusti

Can I make a small recommendation? Your product looks awesome, seriously. But the V8 through me for a huge loop. I was thinking it was some fork of the the Chrome V8 engine that used... I'm not sure what, but something flat. V8.0 might

I can't speak for Windows 7, but I believe you could mark an ethernet as metered in Win 8, but you definitely can't in Win 10. Edit: I take it back, I was wrong. No ethernet metering. You can do it via regedit, but no way to do it

If you marked your connection as metered, I believe it respected that and wouldn't download it.

If you're going ES6, why not just: import {solve} from 'logic' solve((x,y) => x === "mcbob" && y === "bob" || x === "bob" && y === "bill");

If this leak is real, it points to one of two things. Either it isn't the NSA and is a company or some quasi-governmental group - owing to the fact that any of this shit the NSA makes would be on JWICS terminals and absolutely not acce

This is brilliant. Thank you so much! Edit: I made a modification for conciseness' sake, and to include SSH in the mix as that can be used as a poor man's VPN. def is_vpn(self, ip): api = shodan.Shodan(self.config[&#

Mostly really nasty chat and working against own team. You don't see too much of it nowadays as we're very proactive about that, and have blocked all the major slurs from being typable. Always glad to find a player in the wild! We

We've examined all the options. We already use browser fingerprinting, and that takes care of a good percentage of it, but for the truly committed there are really only two options: Blocking all VPNs, or using supercookies. I'm ac

Yup, and I seriously appreciate those that do that, but it's the small providers which inevitably end up screwing us over. Some small VPS company has a vulnerable server that someone makes a VPN on, and suddenly we get a wave of ban ev

I like this, but I have to tell you what I've been looking for in one of these services for forever. I help develop a fairly popular webgame. One of our biggest headaches is people who are evading bans by using VPNs (public or not), VP

Honestly, people are just settling on redux. It builds on flux and really is pretty easy to use. Is it the best solution? No idea, but it works and it's quickly becoming the de facto implementation.

I was in the military when the initial leak by Chelsea Manning occurred, and had a TS clearance. The next day, we had a base wide meeting where OSI (The Air Force's FBI) said that although all the information is classified, we were not

That's not illegal though. The people who are actually seeding the data, that's who the companies can go after, not the people posting files with metadata or magnet links. Sometimes (most of the time) those will be the same people

Well that's just a scam. A honeypot, at least in common parlance on this site, refers to getting a specific group of people to run/interact with something in the interests of compromising their identity and/or blackmailing th

What's the point of a torrent honeypot? It's incredibly trivial to track which IPs are downloading a torrent; operating the site which offers magnet links gives you no additional information whatsoever.

Absolutely, but having an audio recording of a guy in the 40s saying "Nahhhh" really makes you feel it.

I highly recommend this episode, if for no other reason than to hear a bunch of architects in the mid 20th century bullshit about silly problems. It really shows you how little people have really changed fundamentally in the past century.

That is interesting. I've long held a theory that my brain simply doesn't respond to GABA properly. I seem to be able to take any GABAergic in gargantuan amounts and experience very few side effects, and just feel normal. Then, on

I did end up taking a Vitamin D test after I had started supplementing, and on that dosage I'm still a little below normal levels.

10,000 IU per day. A loading dose is in the range of 100,000IU to 1,000,000IU, depending on age and body weight. Hypervitaminosis D only occurs when you take a loading dose level for months or years; it's not possible to acutely overdo
