   Better memory usage due to the (BSD-like) kernel, vs Linux could be one of the factors. "My server earlier used to consume over 1 GB of memory for running PHP, MySQL and Nginx. Now, it doesn’t even touch 500 MB! It’s always less than 5

   Just using accelerometer, as some point and shoots do, is pretty inaccurate but still somewhat usable. Using all the sensosrs on a modern phone (including signal strength from known wifi/tower beacons) would yield much better results.

   I don't recommend buying this. Invest time into understanding and securing your local network, and hire capable admins if you manage an office/institution. Even they note the device is useless on networks with tight security, leav

   Just in case anyone's wondering, you can replay the results as spoofed network traffic via tcpreplay: https://github.com/appneta/tcpreplay or rather tcpliveplay (that should be included in the package), unless you

    I'd love one! Rooted, acting as a high quality wifi microphone . If TTS is handled locally (doubtful) I'd love to tap into that as well, it sounds very nice. This might be the new Kinect, a device least used for what it was origin

    The article mentions Amazon's Fire Phone 2-star consumer rating, but this piece of information has to be taken with a grain of salt. Phone's Amazon page was bombarded with fake reviews from activist groups that are trying to get A

    Thanks for the links, that's not a search phrase I would instinctively write. I don't understand why you couldn't include examples to illustrate your point in the blog post, you're addressing coders after all. I can&#x27
