I think you meant to say he was deported back to Australia. It's weird that something like this sets a precedent in favor of extraditing people. Weird legal things like this sometimes prevent me from sleeping at 2 am. If you are unlucky you

I think that you are that one, as well. Do the test in a normal window and then in an incognito window. Each "Browser Characteristic" had the same result in both.

It's hard to see how this could not work. /s Do they really think this is a good tactic? It immediately creates tension between them and the client. Even if you paid up or added their link to your page would you trust them in the future?

288 hours per frame, 24 frames per second, 24 hours per day = 288 days per second of film time. Pretty close but the assumption that you'd be using a single CPU is wrong.

I used to love Firefox too but after opening 20 pages it would slow to a crawl. I bailed for Chrome even though Firefox's version of Adblock is vastly superior. Firefox still runs poorly for me and until that changes they have no hope of

Flash may be owned but it is released as open source. The language is completely open, there is an open source compiler and an open source VM. HTML5, as it is, is a pain in the butt because of multiple vendors supporting subsets of it. I st

You are wrong. Html5 for Youtube is still an opt-in trial, unless you are on a platform without flash. As for related sites, while most I frequent seem to keep their files in .mp4 format rather than .flv the players are all flash based. Pro

Allow the customer to assign weighted values to who gets the money from their premium service. Or if it's a streaming service divide it among the artists that were actually listened to.

Megaupload made the bulk of it's money from upselling customers into premium accounts. The only way to make good money from ads is if the ads are relevant for the people who come for the content. I can't imagine many relevant ads for people

Deoxit is different to WD40. Deoxit is a contact cleaner while WD40 is a lubricant. They work in nearly the same way but WD40 leaves residue which will build up over time while deoxit completely evaporates. WD40 will work but I wouldn't use

If anyone is interested in why they wanted Canons it's because they probably used the custom firmware CHDK and a time-lapse script to automate their photo taking. http://chdk.wikia.com/wiki/CHDK

How hard was it to interface with HN? Do they provide an API to work with? Reddit has a very nice API, one of the killer features is that if you take any reddit page and add ".json" to the address it'll spit out pure json at you. For exampl

- Technology is not taken seriously in this country. That's the bottom line. Truth. I have (a surprisingly large amount of) friends who don't have internet to their house and the only website they visit is facebook on their phone. Our curre

Yep, I'm an idiot. I grabbed the binaries from the official site instead of from the repo. I was tired.

It looks like glut and opengl are included with the standard libraries. Unfortunately I can't find any building information so I can't do anything with it.
