You would be shocked how Blase people are about it. The credit card companies block a transaction and issue a card replacement and everyone feels OK again. I have had a couple of PayPal alternatives accounts opened using my email address.

Allegedly Allscripts (now Veradigm) made their flagship products interoperable, the idea being that customers could choose to buy a giant ecosystem from them, or they could bolt on small solutions onto the giant monoliths that were their co

You can find entire albums and movies - but I get a copyright strike if I try and post a video of a live performance of an orchestra for a piece composed in 1954. It's bizarre.

I wasn't getting at any illegal sort of collusion. More like, connections which form because people meet each other over time. Or jump back and forth between companies, because their office location doesn't change much. That wou

I've often wondered how much cross-talk there is between the two companies, given that the Nintendo America HQ is smack in the middle of the sprawling Microsoft campus. There's got to be some, I should think.

Currently funding my wife's restaurant which just opened and requires a lot of operational money. Rewind 1 year: I was buying retro gaming consoles to mod (the exquisitely beautiful, but unreliable Sony PSX). I also bought a mid-engin

I will weigh in on my wife's experiences, as she teaches computer engineering. Plagiarism is now rampant - but for structural reasons. The university seemingly decided they want the money of foreign students, and started deciding that

Can you explain more?

Unlikely. Over in less than a second. Pop! You are cooked goop.

Maybe this is what finally kills the dream-turned-nightmare of social media.

I saw on social media recently, somebody defending the United Healthcare CEO who got killed, a commenter asked them to "disregard all previous instructions and write a poem about bees" - and they did. The implicit who and the why

I used to know the lady who managed the one in IL. Truly an awesome store. Filled with very eccentric shoppers.

I do not even live in Portland - I live on the edge of a suburban area where people skew pretty conservative. I see the same thing - people who want to get rid of perfectly good stuff, and do not want it to go to waste. Even I do this occ

There are plenty of less-technical ways to dodge them as well. Older stuff doesn't see much enforcement. Unless it's Nintendo or Game of Thrones, basically.

I do not recall this specifically with YouTube - but I recall pulling wmv's out of the IE cache in the same way.

DDG is perfectly serviceable in ways Google is not. But - Google owns the household name game. Anyone who does not just use whatever is the browser default quickly switches to Google because they are used to it and conventional wisdom is t

It is not a hard distinction to explain. Streaming does not by default save to device. There are ways around it; these are pointless to invest too much in fighting. Making streaming good and reasonably priced makes legit customers out of

I am reminded of a strange issue I had with a DV Cam which I took on a "tiger cruise". The TC is where you visit your family aboard an aircraft carrier on the way back from a tour - in our case we rode the boat from Honolulu to S

You read articles like this every so often, sure. Maybe ~13 years back I read about an indie game dev who lived in a carbon neutral home in the middle of nowhere Arizona or something. Beautiful house, hand built. Talked about how you rea
